Leng Yi couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he heard this, and a picture quickly flashed through his mind:
In the dark room, filled with the fire and heat of the oven, as sparks flew everywhere, a group of muscular, shirtless men were sweating profusely with hammers...
In the world of cultivation, not all monks' bloodlines are suitable for fighting. A small part of the bloodline communicates attribute energy too slowly, resulting in the inability to form a strong force. Therefore, combat power and cultivation are not directly proportional; therefore, such monks
So he gave up the cultivation of combat power and found a new path in other directions, which led to a series of professions;
In this prosperous world, due to the rapid increase in population and the fact that various materials that were very scarce in ancient times have become no longer scarce, various new professions have sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain, such as agriculturalists, florists, animal trainers...
…
The blacksmith is one of this new professions, separated from that more noble ancient profession;
Blacksmiths are divided into levels one to nine. The "level" regardless of the "grade" is the difference between emerging professions and ancient professions. From another aspect, it also shows how important those ancient professions are;
Like the martial arts practiced by other monks, the blacksmith's "martial arts" is called "smithing";
However, all methods come from the same source, and a blacksmith and a mortal blacksmith are only different in terms of people, fire, and materials. Therefore, there is not much difference between the blacksmith's training place and the blacksmith's working place;
Of course, the status of a blacksmith is not comparable to that of a blacksmith. In the Daqi Dynasty, to a large extent, a blacksmith could even be on an equal footing with an alchemist;
Therefore, although a first-level blacksmith's cultivation level does not exceed the fifth level of Body Tempering, his social status is much higher than that of a ninth-level Body Tempering expert like Duan Zheng;
I asked why the old immortal was throwing hammer after hammer at me;
Leng Yi finally understood the function of these hammers. As a blacksmith, the integration of man and hammer is a basic skill. He must practice the hammer to the point where he can do whatever he wants like a fist and can be used like an arm. Using a hammer as a weapon is undoubtedly to achieve this step.
The fastest and most solid method;
but……
It seems that the Najie cannot be made by a blacksmith;
A trace of doubt flashed through Leng Yi's mind, and then Leng Yi happily started to pack up his treasures, and then ran towards the border camp again with the hammer on his shoulder;
Of course, Leng Yi could no longer go to the frontier camp, but followed the trade road that was said to be paved with blood and tears all the way to the barbarian city;
The barbarians are the only known human group that dares to survive in the Western Wilderness. They live in the transition zone between the edge and the central part of the Western Wilderness. It is said that they are the descendants of the frontier soldiers who stayed in the Western Wilderness when the Daqi border retreated hundreds of years ago.
;
Because the barbarians still retain the customs and habits of hundreds of years ago, and the harsh living environment of the Western Wilderness, the barbarians are extremely tough and brave, so the barbarian horse bandits who roam the entire trade route are born; horse bandits, ferocious beasts, make Leng
The trade route under Yi's feet is notoriously dangerous. Except for the caravans of big families, almost no small caravans dare to take this road;
However, Leng Yi was not afraid of ferocious beasts, and when the horse bandit saw Leng Yi alone, he thought he was a stray mercenary and was too lazy to pay attention to him. In this way, after running all day and night, Leng Yi finally arrived at the gathering point of the barbarians -
—Xihuang City;
"Wow! It's so big!"
Leng Yi stood on a mountain ridge and looked at the huge city made of sandstone from a distance. He saw that the houses in the city were well planned, no worse than the city in Xichuan, which showed that the barbarians were not as uncivilized as the Daqi people said;
"This is much more prosperous than Zhenxi City;"
Walking on the crowded streets, Leng Yi looked around for the fur buying shop while nibbling on the special snacks he just bought. In Xihuang City, silver, spirit stones, and animal crystals can all be circulated and used, which is much better than in Xichuan.
cities are much more flexible;
After several inspections, Leng Yi gave up Daqi's trading firm and chose a trading firm run by barbarians. Although barbarians are tough, insistent, and draw swords at the slightest disagreement, they are upright and upright, and they attach great importance to credibility.
In one aspect, it is much better than Daqi Trading Company, which is full of twists and turns;
Of course, all the big people who can open trading houses in Xihuang City are from the big families of Xichuan. Leng Yi really doesn't want to have anything to do with those "noble people" anymore...
In this way, in the barbarian trading house, Leng Yi quickly sold the batch of furry animal bones, and got enough spiritual stones for cultivation as he wished;
"This warrior! Come back next time! I'll definitely have a big bowl of wine and a big piece of meat waiting for you at Sajia!" At the door of the trading house, a burly, flesh-faced barbarian monk rushed to Leng Yi and solemnly clasped his fists;
"Definitely! See you soon!" Leng Yi turned around and returned the greeting solemnly. Although the other party had a fierce look on his face, he was upright and forthright. He only valued bravery and not status when dealing with others. This made Leng Yi feel very happy while receiving due respect;
After bidding farewell to the barbarians, Leng Yi went to the market on the outskirts of the city and exchanged all the remaining silver coins and low-level beast crystals for iron blocks. Then he dragged two carts loaded with iron blocks, weighing tens of thousands of kilograms, by himself.
Leaving Xihuang City with the respectful eyes of the barbarians and the contemptuous eyes of the Daqi people along the way;
The moon is dark and the wind is high, and the night is bitingly cold;
Behind a leeward mountain ridge, a small bonfire exuded warm light, illuminating the sweaty figure not far away;
In the dim light of the fire, Leng Yi's eyes were focused, his figure was vigorous, and he practiced "Fire Sickle Palm" meticulously; after reaching the seventh level of Body Tempering, the simple meditation method has become inefficient. At this time, the martial arts
The advantages are highlighted;
Each martial art is a summary of countless practices by predecessors, and the redundancy of meditation practice is reduced as much as possible, which not only makes the practice more efficient, but also refines the increasingly complex vitality display techniques.
This cultivation method that kills two birds with one stone makes cultivation more effective with half the effort;
With every punch and palm movement of the young man, traces of pure white vitality flew out of the spirit stones placed around him, and followed the young man's figure into his body like a wisp of smoke.
The surging blood power merged into one force and continued to violently impact the blood-red Zanghai;
Today, Leng Yi is no longer so pitiful, and the spiritual stones he cultivated have been replaced by high-grade spiritual stones with larger reserves of vitality. Compared with the first-grade spiritual stones, the vitality contained in high-grade spiritual stones is also purer;
"Hi!"
Hearing a low cry, Leng Yi suddenly pushed out a palm. Although he did not use his vitality, the cold wind from the palm still surged out like a wave of air, blowing the gravel on the ground in all directions;
"What a strong force!"
Feeling the increasingly abundant power in his body, Leng Yi waved a palm again. It was only at this moment that he truly realized the power of Huang Jie's advanced martial arts. With this fire sickle palm alone, Cheng He could only exert
60% of the power, if he can achieve real power...
"Hey! Break it into pieces for me!"
Hearing another sharp roar, Leng Yi suddenly steadied his body, and all the energy in his body suddenly came out, quickly filling his whole body, tightly covering him like a burning flame, and then Leng Yi's eyes turned horizontally, and he looked at the piece in front of him.
The huge sandstone suddenly waved its palm——
call!
Just hearing a dull sound breaking through the air, the palm that was suddenly waved out quickly condensed a burning blood-red palm shadow and shot out. In an instant, it turned into a fierce flaming sickle and swept straight towards it with a strong breath.
That huge sandstone!
boom!
There was a loud noise, and earth and rocks flew everywhere;
In the billowing smoke and dust, the huge sandstone instantly fell apart. The hot air waves carried countless gravel and swept out in all directions. The whining sound of breaking through the air echoed in the dead wasteland like the roar of a ferocious beast!
"Ninth level of body tempering! It's really powerful!"
The fierce wind blew the young man's long hair, Leng Yi suddenly clenched his fists, feeling the unprecedented power and let out a low cry; with the help of martial arts, in just an hour, Leng Yi's cultivation level improved again
Two levels!
"If Cheng He could use such power back then, with just one palm, I would have..."
Looking at the boulder with only its base left, Leng Yi clenched his fists with a ferocious smile, and then suddenly his cheeks twitched, and his face was filled with gloom again;
Around the young man, only seven or eight of the high-grade spiritual stones arranged in a circle were still intact, and the rest had long been turned into debris; this not only meant that the remaining spiritual stones were no longer cool enough to continue the impact.
, which also represents the furry animal bones worth 70,000 taels of silver and more than 3,000 first-grade spiritual stones, disappeared like this...
"Thirty yuan..." Leng Yi gasped again;
Although it was not the first time, he still felt a sharp pain in his heart; the consumption increased exponentially, which made Leng Yi unable to imagine what he would do in the future;
Moreover, as the cultivation level gets higher and higher, each time the martial arts is used, more vitality is consumed. From now on, Leng Yi can no longer quickly replenish the consumed vitality with dozens of beast crystals like before. This is another problem.
It’s a huge expense…
This seems to have become an unbreakable curse...
"Did you see? Your physical strength is still at the tenth level of Body Tempering, and the gap is getting smaller and smaller." The old dragon's voice will always put another stone in the young man's heart at the right time;
The higher you go, the greater the gap between the two cultivation levels. However, due to the lack of specialized body-refining techniques and relying only on simple weight-bearing, Leng Yi's body evolution speed has not changed much;
"If this continues, "Max Explosion" will all look the same," Leng Yi said in a low voice with a sullen face while cleaning up the intact spirit stones on the ground;
As the gap between body and cultivation becomes smaller and smaller, Leng Yi can now only compress 20% of his vitality into one place and deliver a punch comparable to the tenth level of Body Tempering. The effect of this trump card has become smaller and smaller, and even
Already out of the range of trump cards;
Although it is said that the more trump cards there are, the greater the probability of survival, but the fewer...
"Okay! Let's talk about the rest later;" Old Long urged again, "Now, enter the space immediately, and follow what I said, start with the simplest splitting knife!"
