Tome of Troubled Times

Chapter 256: Just in time

Views:

After leaving Xia Longyuan, Zhao Changhe went around to the northwest and headed straight for Yanmen.

I don't know what I was thinking all along the way. It was not easy to ride a horse without any accidents. When I stayed at the inn on the way that night, Zhao Changhe opened the window and looked at the moon. I couldn't describe my mood.

Xia Longyuan said, you should have come earlier.

Indeed, for him, there was nothing that could not be told to his "daughter and son-in-law". What was there to speculate about? It was ridiculous. Not to mention Zhao Changhe, even if it was leaked to Suzaku, the Wang family, or Maitreya... what would they want

A person who does not want the kingdom or offspring is invincible, and anything others do is meaningless in his eyes.

Instead, he wants you to come earlier to help you improve. Go faster, it's too slow...

I don’t know how Chi Chi will feel when I tell her about this in the future. It must be hard for her to describe.

Of course, Xia Longyuan said so much, but he didn't elaborate on what he was doing. For example, why he caused so much chaos was probably not just because he couldn't manage it. Some things were clearly intentional. Just like the sea clan behind the Wang family, he knew it clearly, so was it his intention to cause the Wang family's rebellion? He was vague about whether he killed his son and refused to elaborate.

After all, he is not really a member of your family. When it comes to specific operations, don't treat him as a kind old father-in-law who will answer your questions and solve your doubts.

Zhao Changhe even had a feeling that Xia Longyuan might be closer to him or identify with him more than with his daughter...

Because we all come from the same place and are going to the same place, but the paths we take are different.

Zhao Changhe was thinking about a detail.

Xia Longyuan asked the blind man why he sent him to Chi Chi, and he answered that he was smoked. Xia Longyuan was very surprised.

If you think about this performance carefully, it's quite interesting.

Xia Longyuan thought that the blind man asked him to go to Chi Chi's side because he, Xia Longyuan, could no longer control himself and replaced him with someone similar. But in fact, it was not the "fate" he drew himself. Xia Longyuan was surprised by this, as if he agreed that since it was drawn, it was not intentional by the blind man.

If the blind man did it on purpose, Xia Longyuan might have chopped him... But since it was a cigarette, he became interested.

What concept does this represent? Maybe we need to ask a blind man to solve it in the future.

These can only be left for later. This trip to the capital has indeed been "perfect". The answers I wanted have been obtained. The old father who was about to die in Chi Chi's heart was actually very powerful.

But... This world shouldn't be like this...

It should not be anyone’s playground, no matter the ancient gods and demons or the current Majesty.

With a mixture of admiration and opposition, Zhao Changhe took out the unknown fruit with a complicated expression, looked at it for a long time, and suddenly swallowed it in one gulp.

You want to see how I can do... I want to know, too.

Whatever you plan to do, you have to be strong enough.

Forced improvement is against the way of martial arts, except for natural treasures. If a treasure reaches a certain level, it is not uncommon to reach the top in one step.

The gift that Xia Longyuan could afford to give to his son-in-law was obviously not of ordinary quality.

Zhao Changhe felt a surge of heat all over his body, his blood and energy surging. That was not an expression, it really felt like the degree of "vigorous blood and energy" had doubled.

Qi and blood are quantifiable concepts, just like the comparison between a middle-aged man and an old man, their vitality and blood are not at the same level. The reason why Zhao Changhe practiced the Blood Evil Technique so quickly before was because he was a young man with extremely vigorous Qi and blood. But no matter how vigorous he is, he is just a mortal. When the technique reaches a certain level, it is not enough.

The further solution given by the Blood God is to cultivate evil spirits. Jin Bao and Situ Xiao gave another solution which is to cultivate a special physique. When your physique transcends the ordinary, you will naturally have superhuman energy and blood, and the skills will break down without you even practicing them.

This fruit has nothing to do with evil spirits, it is a treasure of blood and qi, and its degree of metamorphosis is no different from the transformation of the body. Zhao Changhe can almost feel the taste of muscle reorganization when he looks inside, his blood is surging, and his strength is increasing rapidly, like a non-human.

But despite such a strong body transformation, I didn't feel any pain at all. It was as if I had taken a sip of strong liquor and was burning hot. There was no other problem. It was more relaxing than taking the herbal bath.

Combined with Situ Xiao's explanation of body building, Zhao Changhe was almost certain that this was a high-level body building method, and the final result must be a special divine and demonic physique. Wang's sea mud said that the final direction could lead to the "innate Taoist body", so what was this direction

Zhao Changhe connected his mind to the gold foil and clearly saw four large characters displayed on the gold foil "VR": "Blood Shura Body. The foundation is laid."

Zhao Changhe: “?”

What body? Can you say it again

Is this the malicious intent of the Heavenly Book or just Xia Longyuan's fun

Regardless of whether it was fun or not, this time the progress of the sea mud was obviously higher than the last time. Not only did he give the evaluation of "the beginning of the foundation", but he also listed the next step of body building direction: "The blood coagulation red fruit is enough to lay the foundation. If you want to go further, you still need something to increase your body strength... The best thing for this body may be the Dragon Elephant Blood Ginseng."

Zhao Changhe subconsciously asked: "I haven't heard of it, where can I find it?"

Gold foil: “…”

Although it is still not certain that the blind man is a book spirit, Zhao Changhe still inexplicably had this imagination: a blind man crossed his arms and said in a cold tone, I am a waste.

By the way, Xia Longyuan didn’t mention the Heavenly Book, but he mentioned that the blind man “might be a spirit”... I wonder if the blind man will say something tonight

Zhao Changhe sat cross-legged, silently practicing his skills, and entered a deep state of meditation.

Entering into a state of meditation is no different from sleeping. It is both a way to start practicing and digesting the fruit, and also a way to wait for the blind man.

… …

The sound of roosters crowing could be heard from the inn, and the sky in the east was gradually getting brighter.

Zhao Changhe opened his eyes and was a little surprised that the blind man did not come that night.

Zhao Changhe didn't believe that the blind man didn't know about his contact with Xia Longyuan. She must have known, and Xia Longyuan must have known that she knew, but Xia Longyuan was wantonly expressing himself without any scruples. I don't know if the blind man felt embarrassed, or if he thought he was in a higher dimension and felt that it was not worth commenting on

I don’t know, but it doesn’t matter. Gods and Buddhas are high up, and I just follow my own path.

So what if she doesn't exist

Zhao Changhe stood up, stretched out his hand, and gently clenched it, feeling the surging power, that was the real thing.

The effect of this night's practice was extremely outrageous.

The Blood Evil Art broke through the seventh level silently, without even the usual surge of evil spirit, because the blood energy was too vigorous, it was hard to tell whether it was a natural breakthrough or the result of the art... In other words, this is called a huge improvement in the basic attributes, which led to a breakthrough in the art. Based on this, the subsequent eighth and ninth levels would not need to be so entangled as before, as long as you practice smoothly until you reach the level that you should be able to pass it.

It is equivalent to paving a smooth road.

As for internal strength, there are also certain benefits.

When the body is healthy, everything is fine. Although it doesn't help the meridians, the internal practice has reached the sixth level. Zhao Changhe silently practices the Star Resonance Method of the Four Symbols Sect and has made a breakthrough steadily.

The outer skills are at the seventh level, the inner skills are at the sixth level… If one uses the Liuhe Magical Skill to transform power to boost the outer skills in combat, can he be considered an eighth-level master

When he left Jiangnan, he was at the fifth level of Xuanguan. At that time, Tang Buqi thought that this kind of strength could not play the desired value in the army. What about now

When Yue Hongling was a well-known figure in the martial arts world, challenged Master Xue, and became the second highest level of Qianlong, it was the eighth level of Xuanguan.

When Chi Li went to the Central Plains alone to challenge all the famous masters and was the hidden dragon of the Central Plains, he was at the eighth level of the Xuanguan Pass.

You can come to the Central Plains to cause trouble, and I can also wreak havoc on the grasslands.

The battle of Yanmen is in full swing, so it is the right time to go there.
