After leaving Xuanyu Mansion, Shao Tong first found a place to rent a courtyard in a corner near the outside of the city that was sparsely populated.
After settling in for a while, he returned to the research institute on Earth, found Yang Liang, and asked him to prepare a batch of chickens.
Yang Liang didn't ask any questions and immediately bought a batch of strong chickens.
Shao Tong took them to another world and locked them in a prepared chicken shed.
They began to mutate, becoming much larger in size, their fur colors became brighter, and their bodies were well-proportioned and powerful.
Shao Tong didn't do any extra tubes, but just fed them some feed. That night, they laid seven or eight eggs, which were several times larger than eggs on Earth.
Putting away those eggs, Shao Tong began to test the effect.
According to what I heard, the eggs were boiled first and swallowed directly without peeling the shells.
Shao Tong immediately activated the true essence of the Red Crane Kung Fu, and a gentle force emitted from his belly. When the true essence was circulating, it automatically merged into the true essence, strengthening the power of the true essence.
After several rounds of operation, Shao Tong's true energy grew fuller and fuller.
He decided to start enlightenment and enter the second level of true essence.
With his mind settled, he swallowed four or five eggs in succession, and a majestic heat suddenly rose up, filling the meridians in his body.
Shao Tong followed the Red Crane Technique and guided the true energy to pour into the acupoints all over his body. The heat flow in the body was also induced and integrated into the true essence, and the majestic force impacted an acupoint.
Not long after, a sense of smoothness suddenly emerged.
Shaotong's true energy surged through that acupoint and rushed to the next acupoint, like water in a river.
boom!
Shao Tong's body was shaken, and the second acupoint was also opened.
The heat in the body had subsided a lot, but the true energy was still powerful. He rushed towards the third acupoint with all his strength.
The first attack was unsuccessful, so Shao Tong attacked again.
The obstructions in the acupoints are gradually loosened.
Shao Tong thrust again several times, squeezing out all the power of the heat in his body, and finally completed the thrust on that acupoint.
"Six eggs, three acupoints. On average, the power of two eggs can help me condense one acupoint. However, the further you go, the greater the strength required. It will increase geometrically to condense 360 acupoints throughout the body. It will take at least
Thousands and tens of thousands.”
Shao Tong murmured and stood up.
He took out several sets of martial arts purchased from Xuanyu Pavilion from his storage bag, looked at them carefully under the light.
Two sets of sixth-grade exercises can open about 130 orifices, while seventh-grade exercises generally can't open more than 100 orifices.
Many of these acupoints overlap, but there are also many that are different.
Comparing several sets of exercises at hand, Shao Tong quickly found the locations of more than 280 acupoints.
But this is of no use. The location of the acupoints is not a big secret. You have to find it. Whether the true energy can move in an orderly manner and form a cycle is the key point of a set of martial arts.
The purpose of condensing the acupoints of the second level of Zhenyuan is to lay a solid foundation for the circulation of the third level of Zhenyuan.
It is useless to open up all the known acupoints, but if they cannot be integrated as a whole to form an orderly circulation path.
Even if the acupoints are condensed too much and there is a problem with the circulation route, it is easy to cause the true energy to be disordered and go crazy.
Opening up the acupoints and controlling these acupoints in an orderly manner within a complete circulatory system is the key point of Zhenyuan Martial Arts.
"Different acupoints have different properties and functions. Even if the same acupoints operate in different orders, the performance of the true energy will be different. If you want to create a set of martial arts with all three hundred and sixty acupoints open,
Learning is more difficult than I expected." Shao Tong's face turned serious.
"Fortunately, after my eighteen transformations, my physical body has become very strange and can accommodate all kinds of true energy running in my body. I can first open all three hundred and sixty orifices, and then slowly try to use my spiritual power to
The control of the physical body by force will always find a suitable circulation route."
Saying this, he carefully studied the technique at hand.
After looking at it, he discovered some problems.
There are many terms in these exercises. Although there are annotations and translations, it is still difficult for him to understand.
This is inevitable. Although his understanding is amazing, he has been in this world for too short a time and has not integrated into the cultural atmosphere here at all.
It's like telling foreigners some Chinese-specific words like Tai Chi, Yang Yang, Chaos, and Creation. No matter how good the translation is, the foreigners can't understand them.
Because the two parties are not in the same cultural circle.
I never felt like this when I practiced relatively low-level martial arts before.
When one reaches the True Yuan realm, martial arts contains some vocabulary unique to other worlds, and the deficiencies in cultural level are exposed.
"It's not just a matter of not being able to integrate into the culture. Although my martial arts cultivation has improved rapidly, after all, I am not a warrior trained by this world since I was a child. The foundation in some theoretical aspects is too weak. It is one thing to be able to do it. Why is it so important to be able to do it?
I’m not very clear, maybe I should find a teacher for tutoring.”
Shao Tong feels that this world also has the habit of cherishing its own secrets. Many important martial arts theories are not written down in writing, but are passed down orally between family elders or masters and apprentices.
"Let's ask some other time if we can hire some experienced martial arts masters to give guidance."
Saying this, he continued to study several sets of martial arts.
Early the next morning, Shaotong came to Xuanyu Pavilion, and the shopkeeper took him to a mansion in the east of the city.
There is a plaque hanging on the mansion with the word "Ding Mansion" written on it.
A group of people lined up outside, all looking eagerly at a man dressed as a butler behind the door.
"Steward Zhao, we are here to see Master Ding." "Yes, please inform me quickly." "Everyone is very anxious, so please be accommodating."
Looking at these people, Butler Zhao coughed and sighed: "The master has encountered some troubles recently. He is not ready to take over the work for the time being. You can go back first."
Everyone was anxious now.
"Butler Zhao, you can't do this. We can discuss the remuneration, but please ask Master Ding to meet us!" "Yes, can you tell us what kind of trouble Master Ding has encountered? We can help find a solution."
Brother Zhao, tell me."
Butler Zhao had no choice but to say: "I have been trying to forge a fourth-grade magic weapon recently. Most of the materials are ready, but there is a problem with the most basic use of fire. The fire for forging the fourth-grade magic weapon needs to be made of golden elm wood."
Fuel, but I can’t find enough golden elm wood.”
"Master Ding wants to forge a fourth-grade magic weapon? He is indeed the number one weapon forger in Shanglin City. There are only a handful of fourth-grade magic weapons in the entire Lianshan Mansion. Master Ding's magical skills are unparalleled."
"I've heard of this golden elm wood. It seems to be produced in the nine southwestern countries. It's very rare and precious. I wonder if Xuanyu Pavilion can get it?"
Everyone suddenly looked at the shopkeeper of Xuanyu Pavilion beside Shaotong.
The latter sighed: "If there are just one or two golden elm wood, it is not difficult to get it, but it will take at least ten days and ten nights to cast a fourth-grade magic weapon. It requires at least dozens of fuels, which are transported from the nine countries in the southwest.
Here, not to mention road safety issues, it will take several years."
"Alas, even Xuanyu Pavilion can't do anything, so there is no hope." Everyone looked downcast.
Someone asked reluctantly: "Butler Zhao, can you ask Master Ding to be accommodating? We can pay twice as much as the casting fee. I just hope that Master Ding can cast weapons for us first."
Butler Zhao shook his head: "Now the master is thinking about how to replace the golden elm wood. Unless you can come up with a large number of golden elm wood, otherwise disturbing him will only make him angry."
These people looked at each other and had no choice but to leave.
Butler Zhao looked at the shopkeeper of Xuanyu Pavilion: "Shopkeeper Ban, you are bringing guests to see the master. I'm sorry, the master is not seeing guests now."
The shopkeeper of Xuanyu Pavilion looked at Shao Tong helplessly: "Guest, how about I introduce you to other weapon casters?"
Shao Tong shook his head and looked at Butler Zhao: "If I can help Master Ding get the golden elm wood, can I ask him to forge a weapon for me for free?"
"Can you get golden elm wood?" Butler Zhao looked at him and looked at it carefully, "If it's true, then it's definitely no problem, but if it's fake, hehe..."
A sneer appeared on his face.
The boss of Xuanyu Pavilion also cast a doubtful look.
Shao Tong smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, I don't like to entertain people."
Butler Zhao thought for a while: "You wait here, I will report to the master."
It didn't take long for him to come back and said to Shao Tong: "Master, I have a treat."
