At this time, Sun Wu had already finished checking his disciple's injuries. Although he was cursing, there was still a hint of joy in his eyes.
The promotion from military commander to martial king is a threshold that blocks almost 99.9% of warriors. Every year, countless military commanders and warriors die due to forced promotion.
But once this step is taken, the sky will be open to birds and the sea will be open to fish.
Becoming a Martial King will not only greatly improve your cultivation and strength, but also extend your lifespan. Only a Martial King is qualified to be called a high-level warrior.
No matter which force in the human race, King Wu is a highly respected existence.
Even if he is recruited by others, King Wu can guard one side. Even if he forms his own force, usually no one will provoke him.
For example, Sun Wu sat in the Qingshan Escort Bureau with the dignity of King Wu, and developed the Escort Agency's business to every corner of the Four Kingdoms. Not to mention the human warriors, even the demon clan had to give way to them.
"Master, half of this kid's bones are broken. It will take him a year and a half to recover."
Although Zhao Changqing's injury was extremely serious, it was still worth it in Sun Wu's opinion. When a general is promoted to King of Martial, he has to fight with his life, and getting injured is just an ordinary thing.
When Zhao Changqing was promoted to King of Martial Arts, he was also seriously injured, even more serious than Zhao Changqing now. If Su Xiaofan hadn't taken action, he would have been in bed for three to five years.
However, the vitality of King Wu warriors is extremely strong. As long as they are not killed on the spot and can breathe for a while, they can basically heal themselves slowly.
King Wu can even regenerate a broken limb, but it takes a long time and requires a huge amount of energy and blood. Warriors who regenerate broken limbs usually remain weak for several years.
So at this moment, Zhao Changqing seems to be seriously injured, but he is not dying. He only needs to stay in bed for a year and a half, and he will slowly recover.
"Well, it's nothing serious. You'll wake up in a while."
Su Xiaofan glanced at Zhao Changqing, with a look of joy in his eyes.
When a military general is promoted to become a King of Wu, it is a leap in the level of life. Zhao Changqing can fight back and kill the enemy. As his cultivation level increases in the future, he is also a top-notch existence even among the warriors of the King of Wu.
"Master, look..."
Sun Wu came to Su Xiaofan's side and said calmly: "We are still practicing escorting. With Chang Qing's appearance, it is not convenient to follow."
"Can't you just throw it on the carriage? What's the inconvenience?"
Su Xiaofan glared at Sun Wu. Warriors have great recovery abilities, especially King Wu. As long as he didn't die on the spot, a few bumps on the road would be nothing.
"Ahem, master, this is your disciple."
Sun Wu looked pitiful, "Master, it's just a piece of cake for you. You'd better save this poor child and let him suffer less."
When a warrior is injured, he only needs to be instilled with a huge amount of Qi and blood power, or take heavenly materials and earthly treasures, so that the injury can be healed quickly.
Sun Wu would not dare to think of asking Su Xiaofan to waste his energy and blood, but it was a genius treasure, and the master seemed to have obtained two of them just now.
"You kid, I just got these two nice fruits, and I have to ask for one from you."
Seeing Sun Wu staring at the box in his hand, Su Xiaofan shook his head speechlessly.
Although this lion fruit is not a holy medicine for healing, it does contain extremely large amounts of energy and vitality, so it is suitable to be used on Zhao Changqing at this moment.
"Take it, this kid Changqing is lucky."
Su Xiaofan ate this lion fruit, at most it would satisfy his appetite, but it had no effect at all, so naturally he would not be reluctant to part with it, so he immediately threw a lion fruit over.
"Thank you, Master. I would like to thank Master on behalf of Changqing."
His disciple felt hurt. Sun Wu was overjoyed when he got the lion fruit. He pinched open Zhao Changqing's chin and stuffed the lion fruit directly into Zhao Changqing's mouth.
The lion fruit looked like the size of a fist, but in fact it melted in the mouth. Almost as soon as the lion fruit entered the mouth, Zhao Changqing groaned in his throat and turned around slowly.
"Master, Master, I have advanced!"
When he opened his eyes and saw the people in front of him, Zhao Changqing couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes. Being injured was nothing. He would be injured dozens of times a year, so he didn't care at all. The key was that he was already a King of Martial Arts warrior.
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and meditate, and refine the lion fruit given by your master!"
Sun Wu slapped Zhao Changqing on the head and asked Zhao Changqing to take Hun'er back.
At this moment, Zhao Changqing felt the huge energy, blood and vitality in his body. Without any nonsense at the moment, he quickly began to practice his kung fu to repair his body's injuries.
"I'll be able to recover almost as soon as daybreak. It won't affect my journey."
Su Xiaofan looked around. Due to the fight between Zhao Changqing and the Golden Lion Demon King just now, the surrounding grasslands for several kilometers had been hardened into solid ground. This space was even more open than the camp.
Su Xiaofan was too lazy to go back to the camp. He greeted Shen Haodong and others, and simply sat down on the ground here to protect Zhao Changqing who was recovering from his injuries.
"Congratulations to Brother Qingshan, Changqing has the appearance of a martial saint."
After everyone sat down, Shen Haodong also looked at Zhao Changqing not far away with admiration.
Although it is said that a warrior needs to put life and death aside to achieve a breakthrough, there are only a few people who can truly do it.
Zhao Changqing had truly broken through the shackles of his mind before. This kind of breakthrough in battle would be of great benefit to his future growth. A perfect mind is also one of the necessary conditions for promotion to the Martial Saint.
Coupled with the resources of the Qingshan Martial Saint, Shen Haodong is certain that the Qingshan Escort Agency will have another Martial Saint in the future.
Including Sun Wu, who is not far away from being promoted to a martial saint, and the three martial saints of the Qingshan Escort Bureau, even if they are compared with the strength of those dynasties, they may not be much weaker.
"Congratulations, Lord Qingshan."
Jiang Zhen looked at Zhao Changqing with some envy. He was not a talisman warrior, and his future road was much wider than his.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The demon king's essence and blood will not have much effect on you. If you want to advance to the Martial Saint, you need to find another way."
Su Xiaofan glanced at Jiang Zhen and said: "This trip is going to the Divine Sea. If you and Sun Wu can kill a sea demon saint, you may have a chance of promotion..."
"The Demon Saint of the Sea?"
After hearing Su Xiaofan's words, Jiang Zhen immediately closed his mouth tightly.
The gap between the Demon Saint and the Martial King is even greater than the gap between the Martial King and the general. Becoming a Demon Saint can already control the power of the world.
Imagine how manpower can defeat the sky. When the opponent controls the power of heaven and earth, King Wu, let alone killing the demon saint, even if he wants to hurt the opponent, it is probably just a dream.
Not to mention that the Shendu Sea is the home of the demon saints in the sea. It is difficult for the Martial King to deal with the demon saints on land. In the Shendu Sea, isn't it just a snack for those sea beasts? Let alone killing them, they can protect themselves.
Both Jiang Zhen and Sun Wu are capable.
"The road has been shown to you. Whether you are willing to follow it or not is up to you."
Su Xiaofan didn't say much. When he taught his disciples, they were always led by their masters to practice on their own. Fortunately, Sun Wu's lineage was more up-to-date and had many good students.
As for the qualifications of Zhou Xiong's lineage, they are much inferior. Zhou Xiong's father, Su Xiaofan's founding disciple, has long since turned into a bowl of loess, and his bones may have turned into yellow mud.
Although Zhou Xiong has good qualifications and is expected to be promoted to King of Martial Arts, he will never be a King of Martial Arts in this life. If he wants to become a Martial Saint, he has no chance at all.
This is also the difference between staying safely in the city and teaching disciples, and going out as escorts. Compared with people like Sun Wu who walk on the edge of the knife, a comfortable life undoubtedly limits the development of warriors.
"Ahem, ancestor..."
Zhou Xiong, who was coming from behind, felt frightened when he saw Su Xiaofan glance at him, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
Uncle Sun Wu is about to be driven out of the Sea of Gods by his ancestor, and his training mission will probably not be easier than Zhao Changqing's mission to kill the demon king.
Zhou Xiong's calves trembled a little when he thought of the Sky-Swallowing Python Demon King that his ancestor had mentioned before. That thing was much more difficult to deal with than the Golden Lion Demon King.
If Zhao Changqing had a narrow escape against the Golden Lion Demon King, Zhou Xiong felt that his training mission was to escape death, and he really didn't have much confidence in his victory.
This was not because Zhou Xiong was timid, but because the gap in strength between the two sides was too large. Especially when he saw how powerful the Demon King's domain was today, it made Zhou Xiong feel a little desperate.
"Originally, I wanted Changqing to join you in the fight against the Sky-Eating Python, but I didn't expect that he would be promoted ahead of schedule."
Su Xiaofan turned to look at Zhou Xiong and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He couldn't tell what Zhou Xiong was thinking. This was because his courage was gone.
Without the courage of a warrior to move forward, it would have been impossible for Zhou Xiong to break through between life and death. His path to becoming King Wu was almost cut off in half.
"Ancestor, I am useless."
Zhou Xiong lowered his head, feeling secretly regretful in his heart.
Zhou Xiong felt that he should not have taken over the Qingshan Martial Arts School in the first place. If he had been training at the Qingshan Escort Bureau, maybe he would be the one who broke through the King of Martial Arts today.
"Give you two choices."
Su Xiaofan sighed and said: "The first is to break through in the battle, and the other is to survive. But with your current mentality, death is almost certain."
"Ancestor, what about the second option?"
There was a look of hope in Zhou Xiong's eyes. From the meaning of his ancestor's words, he seemed to have other choices.
"You recruit and teach disciples in the martial arts hall, and you rarely go out to fight with monsters and gods. I don't blame you for this in the first place."
Su Xiaofan thought for a moment and said: "Another lion fruit can be given to you, but your journey as a warrior will stop at being a martial artist. Even if there are heaven-defying treasures in the future, it will not be possible to improve your cultivation to become a martial artist."
Holy.”
The lion fruit is the sacred fruit of the golden lion group. Although it looks like a small golden lion, it does not mean that it is only effective for the golden lion group.
For a warrior like Zhou Xiong who is only one step away from the realm of King Wu, taking lion fruit can also help him advance through the level.
But as Su Xiaofan said, the Lion Fruit can help Zhou Xiong become the Martial King, but Zhou Xiong's journey as a warrior will stop at the Martial King, and his hope of being promoted to the Martial Saint is completely cut off.
"Ancestor, I..."
Zhou Xiong was in a state of confusion at the moment. As a warrior, becoming the most powerful person was the goal in the hearts of all warriors, so this choice was not easy to make.
"Take the lion fruit, Qingshan Martial Arts School still needs you to continue."
Su Xiaofan waved his hand and threw the box containing the lion fruit to him, "Don't be reluctant, you are much better than your father, at least you still have a chance to choose."
Su Xiaofan's first disciple at that time, Zhou Xiong, was his father. However, he was not as lucky as him. When he died, he was only a military general. He was still far away from the realm of King Wu. Even if Su Xiaofan had the talents and treasures, he could not help him.
he.
"Well, Zhou Xiong, there are many Martial Kings who use foreign objects to break through, so you don't have to mind anything."
Shen Haodong also spoke at this time. He even knew more about the hardships of being promoted to King of Martial Arts than Su Xiaofan, and he also knew more things.
Among the current Martial Kings among the Four Kingdoms, there are very few who have made breakthroughs on their own, and most of them have advanced with the help of external objects.
For example, among the Martial Kings guarding one side of the royal family of the Four Kingdoms, ten out of ten have taken the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. Not to mention that their path as warriors has been completely cut off, but the hope of becoming a Martial Saint is extremely slim.
This is also the reason why there are many Martial Kings in the Four Kingdoms, but Martial Saints are extremely rare. Only those like Zhao Changqing who rely entirely on their own abilities to break through and advance will have the opportunity to break through to Martial Saints in the future.
"Ancestor, do I really not have the qualifications to break through to become a Martial Saint?"
Zhou Xiong grimaced and looked at Su Xiaofan. Although at the beginning of his martial arts practice, his biggest wish was to become the King of Martial Arts and become a powerful and respected figure like Master Sun.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But as his cultivation improves and his age increases, Zhou Xiong's ideals are also constantly getting higher. It seems that as long as he works hard, he can become a Martial Saint.
There is hope too.
But seeing the battle between Zhao Changqing and the Golden Lion Demon King today, Zhou Xiong suddenly understood in his heart, let alone the Martial Saint, if he were to go through this kind of battle, he would most likely die tragically under the giant claws of the Golden Lion Demon King.
.
"Practice martial arts and cultivate your mind. Aptitude is not the most important thing."
Su Xiaofan looked at Zhou Xiong, shook his head, and said: "As a warrior, you must have the courage to face death. The anger in your heart is vented. It will be a good thing for you to take the lion fruit as soon as possible and become the King of Martial Arts."
From Su Xiaofan's point of view, none of the people in the field and camp, including Zhao Changjun and the royal princess, would be able to break through to King Wu on their own in the future, because their aspirations towards martial arts were not firm.
Of course, this does not mean that no one can become the Martial King. In this world, there are many spiritual herbs, spiritual medicines, materials, and earthly treasures, and there are also some that can assist military commanders to break through the Martial King.
As long as you are rich enough, you can use money to build a King of Wu. Just like the royal princess, if you have good training qualifications, as long as you are willing to spend resources, you can hope to become a King of Wu within a period of time.
"Thank you, ancestor, for giving me the lion fruit!"
Zhou Xiong has been the owner of the Qingshan Martial Arts School for so many years, so he is naturally a decisive person. After hearing Su Xiaofan's words, he didn't hesitate anymore and sat cross-legged on the ground.
At this moment, in the field near the camp, there are a total of two martial saints, three martial kings, and Zhao Changjun, a peak military general, gathered in the field near the camp. In terms of safety, I am afraid that even the imperial city is not as safe as here.
However, the place where Zhou Xiong meditates is still thousands of meters away from Zhao Changqing. Breaking through King Wu requires a lot of evil energy from heaven and earth to temper himself. At this time, all the evil energy around Zhao Changqing has been absorbed.
Opening the box and taking out the lion fruit, Zhou Xiong stuffed it into his mouth. When the huge power of qi and blood exploded in his body, Zhou Xiong started to use his skills to reach the realm of King Wu.
The meridians that were originally blocked in the body were quickly washed away by the huge qi and blood, like white snow melting. Zhou Xiong's momentum was also rising steadily, and the power of qi and blood around his body became more and more powerful.
At the same time, the evil energy from heaven and earth within a radius of several thousand meters poured into Zhou Xiong's body like moths flying into a flame. In an instant, traces of blood seeped out from Zhou Xiong's skin. This was the evil energy that was tempering him.
's physical body.
This process will last for several hours, which would be several days if it were the time of the universe.
However, Zhao Changqing, who was recovering from his injuries thousands of meters away, skipped the process of tempering his body with evil spirits.
Because when Zhao Changqing broke through to the realm of King Wu during the battle, a trace of the origin of heaven and earth of this world was absorbed into his body, and he completed the transformation from a general to a King of Wu almost instantly.
This is also the main reason why Shen Haodong said before that Zhao Changqing has the appearance of a martial saint. Without this trace of the origin of heaven and earth, a warrior cannot be recognized by the rules of this world, let alone become a martial saint to use the power of heaven and earth.
"Damn it, why can't I absorb the origin of this world?"
Looking at his promising disciple, Su Xiaofan felt helpless in his heart.
He has always wanted to integrate into this world, but both his clone and his body are too strong, and are suppressed by this world. Not to mention absorbing the origin of heaven and earth, he can't even refine the evil energy.
Although Su Xiaofan now has an immortal body in this world, well, he can live for hundreds of thousands of years. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has an immortal heart.
Moreover, Su Xiaofan's physical strength is far inferior to that of hundreds of Martial Saints and Demon Saints combined. Even if they are Demon Gods and Martial Gods, Su Xiaofan can only fight with three punches and two kicks.
But the only thing that made Su Xiaofan unwilling was that he could not integrate into the origin of this world and understand the laws of this world. This also made Su Xiaofan unable to display his cultivation skills.
In Su Xiaofan's opinion, if he wants to leave this space world, he must first regain his strength in the cosmic space or chaotic space, so that he can physically explore this world and search for the exit.
But now Su Xiaofan can only use the flying boat magic weapon to leave the planet, let alone fly. At best, he can only jump a few hundred meters high, and then he will be squeezed by the laws of this space and come into contact with the ground.
Close contact.
That magic weapon needs energy stones to drive it. Although Su Xiaofan now has some energy stones, he doesn't dare to drive the flying boat magic weapon to explore.
Those energy stones can not only drive magic weapons, but also extend Su Xiaofan's life for more than a million years. Su Xiaofan will not use those energy stones unless it is absolutely necessary.
"If I can't find a solution this time, I'll stop practicing again."
Su Xiaofan sighed in his heart. What he hopes most now is to find traces of the earth's sages who lived here.
According to Su Xiaofan's knowledge, those cultivators on the Earth's mother planet definitely have transcendent powers, and maybe there are even high-level void cultivators.
Those people must have found a way to leave this space world. Su Xiaofan now wants to find the cave where they practiced and lived before and get the information left by these sages.
The risk of re-cultivating San Gong is extremely high. Su Xiaofan's clones have been deducing the exercises for many years, but until Su Xiaofan's true body arrived, the exercises still failed to be successfully deduced.
However, Su Xiaofan also has a chance. The energy stone he took out last time can prevent his physical body from collapsing after he dissipates his energy. As long as the evil spirit enters his body, Su Xiaofan feels that he can succeed.
Of course, these are all Su Xiaofan's guesses. Su Xiaofan still won't make the decision to re-cultivate San Gong before traveling to the entire Four Kingdoms, including places outside the Shendu Sea.
Zhao Changjun raised several bonfires in the venue to dispel the coldness of the night.
In fact, with Zhao Changqing and Zhou Xiong here, it is difficult for the evil spirits surrounding several kilometers to gather, and this place is actually more comfortable than the camp.
Sun Wu and Jiang Zhen gathered together and whispered. It was obvious that what Su Xiaofan said before put great pressure on them.
After all, the Shendu Sea is a restricted area for humans, and even the demon clans on land dare not go deep into it. Killing the demon saints in the Shendu Sea is thousands of times more difficult than pulling chestnuts from the fire.
However, unlike Zhou Xiong, Sun Wu was promoted to the King of Martial Arts by relying on his own strength. His heart for martial arts was so firm that even the Demon Saint could not shake it.
As for Jiang Zhen, the hardships he endured were ten times and a hundred times more than that of Sun Wu.
Because carving formation patterns on the body is a very painful thing. The higher the cultivation level, the more intense the pain will be.
Without a firm heart as a warrior, it would have been impossible for Jiang Zhen to become a Martial King-level talisman warrior, and he would probably have ended his career long ago.
"Changjun, I will give you a chance to choose when you turn around."
Su Xiaofan, who was chatting with Shen Haodong, couldn't help but laugh when he saw Zhao Changjun with a sad look on his face.
In terms of resources, Su Xiaofan is definitely inferior to the four great dynasties. After all, they can command countless warriors to search for heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
But again, Su Xiaofan doesn't have many opportunities to use these resources.
So far, apart from Zhou Xiong and Zhao Changqing, only Zhao Changjun from Qingshan Escort Bureau and Qingshan Martial Arts School is qualified to be promoted to King of Martial Arts.
Judging from Zhao Changjun's state, it seems that he doesn't have much hope of breaking through and advancing.
Su Xiaofan had already thought about it. When he passed through the territory of the Sky-Swallowing Python, he would pick the holy fruit from their clan as well. If he was lucky, he might be able to create two more martial king cultivators in the future.
"Thank you, Master!"
Hearing Su Xiaofan's words, Zhao Changjun immediately calmed down. To be honest, his qualifications are not as good as Zhao Changqing's. Being able to break through to the late martial general stage almost exhausted his potential. He really has no confidence in being promoted to the martial king.
Therefore, compared with Zhou Xiong's entanglement, Zhao Changjun was prepared to use foreign objects to break through King Wu's mind. However, this kind of natural and earthly treasure was extremely rare, and Zhao Changjun was not sure that he would be able to find it.
Now that Qingshan Patriarch has spoken, Zhao Changjun seems to have taken a reassurance and no longer envies the two quasi-Martial Kings who are being promoted and recovering from their injuries.
