In that forest, Xiao Chen seemed to disappear out of thin air. When he appeared again, the environment in front of Xiao Chen had undergone earth-shaking changes. (.woo.o learn)
In the distance, an endless waterfall surges down from the mountain stream and merges into a long river below. There is a large open area above the river bank. Standing on the bank, you can feel the fresh water vapor.
This big river is called Zhuang River. There are many rivers in wild forests, and this Zhuang River is just an inconspicuous one among them. The place where Xiao Chen is is the source of Zhuang River.
In the eyes of outsiders, almost no one paid attention to this extremely inconspicuous place, but Xiao Chen's consciousness sensed an unusual presence here.
On a large rock in the cave behind the waterfall, the surrounding spiritual energy is extremely rich. The speed of practicing on it is about half faster than practicing outside.
After Xiao Chen accidentally discovered it, he immediately set up a phantom formation here to hide it from others. This place was already relatively remote. When Xiao Chen set up the formation, he had no scruples, so he was extremely calm.
Xiao Chen took a total of ten days to complete this set of illusion formations. As long as they are not martial king-level masters, outsiders cannot discover this place at all. Even if they enter this place by mistake, they will avoid it unknowingly.
Xiao Chen was completely safe when he came here. He found a flat rock and sat cross-legged. Zi Lei Jue sat down slowly and began to enter the state of cultivation.
The morning sun was rising, the sun was shining, and one night passed like this. Xiao Chen opened his eyes, took a deep breath, jumped off the rock, and went to the river to wash his face.
In the morning, the waterfall stopped flowing, and the surface of the river was as smooth as a mirror. Xiao Chen raised his legs and walked directly to the river. His body miraculously stopped on the water.
With his heart as calm as water, Xiao Chen circulated the Qinglong Soaring Cloud Technique, closed his eyes, and walked slowly on the water. With every step he took, ripples spread out in all directions.
In ancient legends, dragons are the overlords of the sky and the sea. They can submerge themselves in the abyss, turn mountains and rivers upside down, call for wind and rain, and are omnipotent. When it soars above the nine heavens, it can soar into the clouds and ride on the mist. When it turns over, wind and thunder surge, and it can travel thousands of miles in an instant.
Qinglong Soaring Cloud Technique is such a kind of movement technique. After practicing it to great perfection, the legendary soaring clouds and mists, turning rivers and seas upside down, can be easily picked up.
These days, Xiao Chen has been practicing the Qinglong Soaring Cloud Technique in the Zhuang River. From the beginning there was no progress, to now he has made some progress and can walk slowly on the water.
Xiao Chen just kept walking slowly in the water, comprehending the various mysteries in the Qinglong Soaring Cloud Art. When the sun in the sky reached the top of his head, bursts of rushing water could be heard.
The turbulent waterfall began to flow again, and the calm river surface suddenly became turbulent. Xiao Chen opened his eyes, his eyes full of solemnity.
At this time every day, the trial really begins. If Xiao Chen is not careful, he will immediately fall into the water and turn into a drowned rat.
The river swam downwards quickly. Xiao Chen stood on the water and walked backwards. Every step he took took a lot of energy, but his body was still swaying from side to side above the water.
thump!
When he walked a hundred steps forward, Xiao Chen finally couldn't hold on anymore and fell into the river. The turbulent river water carried Xiao Chen's body rapidly downstream.
The calm Zhuang River immediately showed its ferocious side, and the turbulent river water carried huge power. The constant impact on Xiao Chen's body made it difficult for him to maintain balance, and his body flowed rapidly downstream in the water.
This was not the first time he encountered this situation. Xiao Chen felt calm and did not panic. He held his breath and slowly sank to the bottom of the river.
The vitality is circulating in the body, ready to go. The moment his toes hit the bottom of the river, his body jumped out of the water like an arrow off the string.
When the body fell to the water again, with a slight click, it flipped in the air and landed steadily on the shore.
Looking at the rushing river, Xiao Chen was still filled with emotion. In such a turbulent river, even an ordinary warrior might drown if he had a bad attitude.
Feeling wet and uncomfortable all over, Xiao Chen wiped his face, took off his clothes, and put on a new set of dry clothes from the Qiankun Ring.
It was no longer suitable to continue practicing body movements at this time, so Xiao Chen did not waste time. After eating some dry food, he took out a wooden stick and stood it up on the flat ground.
Holding the Moon Shadow Sword in his hand, under the scorching sun, he began to practice the first move of the Ben Lei Sword Technique, drawing the sword. In his opinion, when drawing a sword, you must practice it until you can strike twelve times in a row, and the wooden stick still does not fall down.
He can only swing four swords now, barely reaching the level of Xiaocheng, and there is still a long way to go before Dacheng.
brush! brush! brush! brush! brush!
After practicing for two hours, Xiao Chen made five consecutive cuts this time. The light wooden stick shook a few times, but it did not fall down after all.
"Finally, I've made some progress. I can chop five times in a row." Xiao Chen said happily as he wiped the sweat from his forehead and the handle of the knife covered with sweat.
After coming out of Mohe City, Xiao Chen realized that there were too many so-called geniuses in this world, and he, Xiao Chen, was nothing at all.
In Dongming alone, the inheritors of the three major forces are only sixteen or seventeen years old, but their cultivation has reached the astonishing level of great martial arts masters.
A state that ordinary people may not be able to reach in a lifetime of cultivation, but they easily reached it at the age of sixteen or seventeen. It can only be said that people are more infuriating than others.
When the vision is enlarged to the entire world, there is no telling how many such monsters there are. Xiao Chen's current achievements are simply not worth mentioning, as inconspicuous as a shiver in the ocean.
In this world where the strong are respected, since he is here, he will not be content to be inferior to others, become a stepping stone for others, and be lost in the dust of history.
If you don't have a strong talent, you have to work a thousand times harder. Just like the Thunder Emperor a thousand years ago, he was born in a poor family, but single-handedly trampled all the geniuses of those wealthy families under his feet.
He has received the inheritance from the Thunder Emperor. Even if he doesn't care about his own face, he still has to take into account the eternal reputation of the Thunder Emperor. Since his talent is not evil, he will work a million times harder.
Putting up a wooden stick again, Xiao Chen concentrated his energy and continued to practice drawing the sword tirelessly. The wood chips in the open space continued to increase.
An hour later, Xiao Chen put away his knife and stood up. After resting for a while, he slowly walked to the shore and looked at the waterfall flowing in the distance. It had become much weaker.
brake!
He shouted softly, jumped onto the turbulent water surface, ran quickly, and went upstream. Waves of air surged around Xiao Chen, and waves more than two meters high splashed on both sides of his body.
Xiao Chen ran all the way without stopping, and came to the place where the waterfall fell. He shouted loudly, jumped up high, and an air gun appeared on the surface of his body.
With a swipe, the waterfall of power was broken directly, and Xiao Chen fell onto a rock behind the waterfall, which was a cave recessed into the mountain wall.
It is only over two meters deep, and the moisture in the cave is very heavy. The waterfall flowing down from the entrance of the cave is like a water curtain, very similar to the Water Curtain Cave that Xiao Chen knew in his previous life.
There was a very flat and smooth rock in the cave. Xiao Chen smiled faintly and sat on it slowly. He immediately entered the state of cultivation, and the Purple Thunder Art kept flowing in his body.
The rich spiritual energy around him kept pouring into Xiao Chen's body. The spiritual energy was as thick as mist, almost reaching the point of liquefaction.
Xiao Chen only circulated for one day, but the spiritual energy in his body had already filled up all the meridians, and a feeling of extreme excitement burst out from his martial soul.
Xiao Chen knew that this was a sign that he was about to advance. As long as he was willing, his realm could immediately return to that of a low-grade martial artist.
But Xiao Chen didn't do this. He crossed the border and used the Nine Heavens Thunder Formation that day, which caused his realm to drop to that of a top-grade warrior. After thinking about it carefully, he didn't think it was a bad thing, but rather an opportunity to re-establish a solid foundation.
It only took him a few months to enter the realm of a low-grade martial artist from the soul refining stage. This is an extremely incredible thing for ordinary people. No matter what, his foundation has not been truly laid.
The foundation of a tall building is the most important. Only if the foundation is more stable, the tall building will be less likely to collapse midway.
The same principle applies to martial arts. If the foundation is dug during the soul refining stage, then the warrior state is to fill in the dug foundation.
Xiao Chen's soul refining period came much later than ordinary people. It took him a full fifteen years to dig the foundation much deeper than ordinary people. He just waited for him to bury it again and build an unbreakable foundation like steel and iron bones. .
With a thought in his mind, Xiao Chen saw that all the absorbed spiritual energy was injected into his skin, flesh and bones, slowly tempering his body.
After the vitality circulated in his body for nine days, Xiao Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and his body was covered with black goo. Xiao Chen jumped out of the cave entrance, and the turbulent waterfall washed away all the impurities discharged from his body.
Suddenly I felt refreshed and relaxed. I couldn't help but let out a loud shout. The momentum in my body suddenly exploded to the extreme. All the water droplets on my body were evaporated in an instant.
boom!
Xiao Chen's body landed heavily on the water, and a huge force spread from his feet. After a moment, a circle of waves more than three meters high rose up around him.
With a tap of his toes, Xiao Chen returned to the shore. In the infinite distance on the horizon, the sun set in the west, night fell, and the day passed like this.
A smaller white figure ran over quickly from outside the magic array, and Xiao Chen saw it. There was a faint smile on his face. No matter how lonely this journey of cultivation was, at least Xiaobai would be with him.
After a night of cultivation, Xiaobai regained her quirky temper and ran out of the Soul Blood Jade early in the morning.
Xiao Chen wasn't too worried about its safety. Xiao Bai, who was practicing the Nine Transformation Heaven Mysterious Transformation, was so fast that even Xiao Chen couldn't catch up.
It ran to Xiao Chen, with a herb tied in its mouth, and placed it in Xiao Chen's hand like a treasure. Xiao Chen is not surprised by this. Xiaobai is sensitive to some spiritual treasures that humans do not have, and he will gain something almost every time he goes out.
Xiao Chen took the medicinal herb in his hand and observed it carefully. His eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "Fifth-grade elixir rue, this is a top-grade medicinal herb that is thirty years old and is worth thousands of gold."
Hearing Xiao Chen's joyful words, Xiao Bai's face showed a human smile, looking very satisfied.
