Chapter 77 Qiqi: The end of seclusion and the completion of body tempering
In the ice cave.
Li Sui'an's exhausted figure appeared strangely.
The two brothers were already used to this, but they were just curious about which monster he had fought with, and he was so embarrassed.
After Li Sui'an said hello to the two brothers, he quietly sneaked into an artificially dug hot spring pool in the center of the ice cave.
The water in the pool is the diluted Thunder Hot Spring water from under the Thunder Vine Spiritual Root, which he dug a ditch to divert.
After being filtered by Thunder Vine, the Thunder Hot Spring water gushing out of the glacier contains very little current.
But soaking in water will still make people feel very uncomfortable.
After all, Li Sui'an's lightning resistance is only 0.58%, which means nothing.
Fortunately, as time went by, he gradually got used to it, and he just regarded it as electrotherapy and physical exercise.
What he didn't expect was that by insisting on soaking in the Thunder Water Hot Spring, his lightning resistance actually increased slightly. Reflected in the data, it was at the 10,000th percentile, which was better than nothing.
At this time, Li Sui'an, who was soaking in the water, was extremely weak and his stomach was empty.
He wanted to take a long nap, but knew he couldn't rest.
The more times like these, the more you must persevere and break through your limits, the more effective your practice will be.
Then he took out a gourd of Spirit Monkey Wine, took a sip of the wine, and ate some roasted Wutujiao beef so as not to feel empty in his stomach.
Then he took out several more elixirs, swallowed them all, and then made a basic sword gesture in the pool.
In an instant, the power of heaven and earth within a thirty-foot radius suddenly blessed his body, and the source energy of heaven and earth surged in, replenishing the lack of energy in his body.
...This is not enough.
The [Shenhu] root bone also plays a role, quickly digesting the elixirs and monster meat in the body, continuously providing energy support for the tempered body, and then being quickly refined into turtle and snake energy.
The body emitted a rhythmic thunderous roar from the abdominal cavity, and the roar gradually spread to the whole body, as if coming from every inch of the body's bones.
Not only the body, but every inch of muscle and skin on the body is also in rhythm.
This terrifying smell and vibration made even the Hong family brothers who had been exposed to blood transfusions for the first time frightened when they saw it.
The sound of tiger, leopard and thunder is nothing more than this.
The Hong brothers watched his every move.
Over the past few days, they have watched with their own eyes as Li Sui'an became stronger day by day, and the speed of progress was really unbelievable. Even though they knew the most talented genius in Longxiang Temple, the first disciple of the Yan Court, and the third ranked person in the Six Paths Qingyun Ranking of the North.
Little King Kong is probably nothing more than that.
The amplitude and strength of this vibration are also increasing progressively every day.
This thunderous vibration has caused the glaciers in the entire underground space to make noises, and stalactites and ice chips fall from the top of the head from time to time.
Li Sui'an seems to be undefended during cultivation, but if you suddenly approach him, you will feel as if you are against the whole world. And the closer you are to him, the stronger the pressure will be.
There was a palpitation-like feeling of terror.
But today, it seems a little different.
"Is this going to break through?"
Li Sui'an's body was like a boiler, with a frighteningly high body temperature. Huge amounts of heat emitted from his pores, evaporating the water in the pool into a large amount of steam, which obscured his vision.
His skin has turned the color of ruby, and the outlines of his internal organs and bones can still be faintly seen.
This is a sign of success in tempering the internal organs.
When was the last breakthrough?
The second day after arriving here.
How long has it passed before another breakthrough is about to happen?
The two brothers looked at each other and let go of the fishing net in unison.
He ran to the knees of the Buddha statue and began to practice immeasurable vajra strength.
They want to cultivate, not make money, they want to break through and exchange blood as soon as possible.
"People who are more talented than you are practicing harder than you, so what right do you have to slack off?"
So a new round of penance in the cave began.
Just like the past dozen or so ordinary days.
There were obviously only three people, but it was so complicated.
If the Hong brothers knew that every time Li Sui'an went out in recent days, he always went to fight with snow monkeys, what would their expressions be like?
I don't know how much time passed before Li Sui'an's body cooled down again.
When he opened his eyes, his eyes were as bright as stars.
The dark space was like daylight in his eyes.
After refining all six ninth-grade black lotus seeds, the divine liquid has condensed into a silver pool three feet wide and one foot deep in the ancestral orifice space.
Because the soul light was not enough, the soul black lotus did not close again this time.
But this breakthrough was not mental.
His skin looked better, and it was as shiny as glass and jade. He stood up from the pool one by one without a drop of water on his body.
Half a month of brutal and crazy training did not make him look sloppy.
Apart from a big beard, he is still a gentle man, even more gentle than before.
My skin is fair and I am thinner than before.
Before, I looked thin when I was wearing clothes, but when I took off my clothes, I looked fleshy. The skeletal muscles were still very obvious, but now they are no longer visible, and the muscle lines have become white and soft again.
However, Li Sui'an could clearly feel the explosive power contained within him.
With a thought, the virtual attribute curtain wall and martial arts section were summoned.
[Martial Arts]:—eighth level of body tempering realm·seventh level of divine realm—
Method of refining the spirit: Guanyuan Shen Black Lotus God Chanting Sutra·Enlightenment (8495/10000)
Martial Arts:
Basic Sword Technique LV9 Harmony between Heaven and Man (Breakthrough 75%)
Zhanyue Sword Technique LV3 is slightly successful (9356/10000)
Dragon Elephant Gang Qi Shield·Three layers (2048/10000)
…
The Turtle Snake Breathing Strength has broken through to the seventh level, and this technique only has a total of seven levels.
The practice is about to come to an end.
After practicing "Turtle Snake Shooting Breathing Strength" to the seventh level, Li Sui'an has reached the realm of body tempering.
The muscles, bones, internal organs, qi and blood are stable, and the qi energy spreads throughout the body, reaching the point where "a feather cannot be added, a fly cannot fall", and the energy has entered the state of transformation.
Looking inside his body, he found that his internal organs were all clean and tidy, his qi and blood were clearly regulated and moderated, his heartbeat was strong, his internal organs were as strong as iron, and his whole body's bones were extremely dense and as hard as steel.
You don't need to measure your weight, you can roughly calculate it, it's at least three times what it was before.
However, the muscles on the body surface have returned to their original nature, becoming as if they have never practiced, soft and cottony, without any force. But once the force is exerted, they immediately become as hard as iron. Especially the two gluteus maximus muscles are particularly obvious.
When punching with force, the two buttocks will make a violent noise when the two buttocks are clamped. Use this force to activate the tail vertebrae and drive the entire spine to break out of the body like a dragon, reaching the point where the force comes from the spine. This is the tiger
Crossing the buttocks, the dragon wagging its tail.
His whole body was filled with explosive energy.
If the strength is not infused, you won't be able to achieve such effects.
For an ordinary martial artist who has reached this level, as long as he maintains his skills properly, it will not be a problem for him to live past one hundred, thirty or forty years.
indeed.
As the "Turtle Snake Shooting Breathing Strength" was upgraded to the seventh level, breaking through the body tempering process, Li Sui'an's lifespan increased again.
【Shouyuan:28/46→51 years old】
Life expectancy has increased by 5 years compared to before.
The next step is to do marrow training and blood transfusion.
Starting from the 33 vertebrae, including 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, 5 lumbar vertebrae, 9 sacrum and coccyx, the marrow is washed one by one like frost.
Continuously breed new medulla and strengthen the body's hematopoietic ability.
When the marrow of the 33 vertebrae is as good as frost, the blood transfusion can be started, in order to refine the blood to the level of mercury slurry.
Wait until then.
It is the pinnacle of the body tempering realm.
Ordinary warriors will accumulate qi and blood, refine qi and strength, and use the strong qi and blood and abundant Dantian qi to nourish the spirit in the Shenting ancestral orifice. At the same time, they should combine the inside and the outside to open the door of the Shenting ancestral orifice in one fell swoop, breaking through to the seventh level.
Li Sui'an no longer needs to do this.
He was able to make such great progress in this half month, but the cost was that nearly 30% of his resources were consumed.
Plus the previous consumption.
The remaining elixir resources are less than 60%.
The Tiger Demon Bone Forging Pill, the Five Elements Belly Strengthening Pill, the Marrow Cleansing Pill, the Yuan Return Pill, hundreds of pills, three jars of golden body quenching fluid, and thousands of kilograms of high-grade monster meat were all put into his stomach.
If it were someone else who took so many supplements in a short period of time, even if there was no need to consider the problem of erysipelas accumulation, he would still suffer from the syndrome of not being able to supplement.
This is common sense in cultivation.
After eating the elixir, it will take some time to digest.
Otherwise, when the powerful medicinal power is released, it will be like feeding a weak patient a bunch of ginseng, deer antler, snow lotus and other powerful tonics while he can only be nursed back to health slowly.
It was originally a supplement, but if used incorrectly, it immediately turned into a tiger-wolf medicine.
Fortunately, the effect of [Shenhu] Root Bone is stronger than expected, and Li Sui'an has grasped the limits of it. It is just a pill in the body tempering stage. No matter how many pills are used, he will not be afraid of the potency being too strong.
If the attack is menacing, use the power of tiger and wolf medicine to penetrate the whole body and help temper the body and train the marrow.
Li Sui'an calmed down and felt very satisfied.
Not only that, [Fishing] skills have also improved.
Catching a pigfish at LV1 will give you 500 experience points. When you upgrade to LV2, each pigfish will give you 400 experience points and can steal 3% of your health. When you upgrade to LV3, each pigfish still has 300 experience points.
Get some experience.
Now his skill level has been successfully upgraded to LV3.
[Fishing: LV3 has a slight success (600/10000). It increases your fishing experience and increases the chance of catching high-quality fish. At the current level, for every fish caught, 5% of its health can be stolen. 】
It’s not that I don’t want to continue brushing.
He used ordinary kitchen knives to make fishing hooks, but after using them several times, they were electrochemically rotten.
He needs more professional fishing tools.
Fortunately, a full 108 pig fish were caught, which was enough to last for a while.
This half month of experience has now come to an end.
I can't travel far if I have worries.
He was also a little homesick.
Everything in this world will never go as planned, just like there are two selves in the world.
One wants to go home and the other wants to travel far away.
One raises a cup to welcome the bright moon, while the other lowers his head to pick up pieces of silver.
Xu Fengnian, a white horse in green clothes, speaks softly in the world of fireworks.
One is like a white horse roaming the spring mountains in words, and the other is like a coward in life for endless years.
But before leaving, I have to say goodbye to an old friend.
Li Sui'an mentioned the idea of returning to the two of them, and the Hong brothers immediately agreed. They missed my mother after being away for so long this time.
It is a big problem to transport more than a hundred spiritual fish back to Kunpeng alive.
If they still followed the previous method, they would need to get a truck and take a long detour to the official road again. The distance was twice as long as when they came. Fortunately, the pig fish was still a spiritual beast and had stronger vitality than ordinary fish.
It won't die in transit.
But after such a tossing, when it was transported back to Kunpeng City, it was still dying and lifeless.
This is why the pigs and fish that Li Sui'an bought before all looked like they were about to die.
No need to worry now.
In front of the Hong family brothers, he put one hundred and eight pigs and fish into the empty nest. There is no room for living things in the empty nest, and they will die quickly if they are put in. They have to eat anyway, as long as they are kept fresh
enough.
The three of them stayed in the same cave for more than half a month.
I usually see Li Sui'an bringing out large amounts of fresh monster meat from time to time. Even if the big package he brought was tripled, it still wouldn't be able to hold so many things. The Hong brothers had already suspected it, but they just didn't ask questions.
At this time, seeing Li Sui'an unabashedly using his methods in front of his face, both of them widened their eyes.
"Brother, what are you capable of?" Dabao finally couldn't help himself and asked.
Li Sui'an's strength was getting stronger and he didn't want to hide it any longer. He said, "Have you ever heard of supernatural talents?"
"I've heard that it is said that the top two geniuses on the Qingyun Ranking are the possessors of supernatural powers. Are you the same, brother?"
"Yes. Remember to keep it secret."
They both nodded together.
Li Sui'an said: "This time there are 108 pigs and fish, the purchase price is 20 taels each, a total of 2160 taels of silver. I don't have that much money on me now, I will give it to you when I get back."
Hong Ducheng said: "Brother, we wouldn't be able to catch so many pigs and fish without you. The price should be cheaper."
"Brother Ming has settled the account. I have already agreed in advance that no matter how much it is, I will charge it at the original price."
Seeing that they wanted to separate, Li Sui'an waved his hand and said: "You are also about to change your blood. You need a lot of resources. You need this money more urgently than me, so don't refuse."
