"Senior Ye, Zhou Ziru and I both want to leave for Hongxi City right away," Zhan Chen said.
Yes, yes Zhou Ziru also agreed.
At this time, the two of them could only describe their feelings as eager to return. After all, they had left the sect for more than 20 years, and the sect contained many bonds that they could not break away from.
Ye Wu said: Don't be anxious, it's not that simple to go to Hongxi City. Please note that Hongxi City is still nearly 800 miles away from us through the swamps, and you are not very familiar with this place.
Then what should I do if I am wary? Chen Busen asked.
Ye Wu took out a jade slip from the Qiankun bag and threw it to Zhan Chen. He said: Zhan Chen Zhou Ziru, what is drawn here is a detailed route map from Magnetic Pole City to Hongxi City. This was originally a secret of our Ye family. Only
Only the few closest people can know it, but now, you two have saved my daughter, so I give it to you as a repayment of your kindness.
Zhan Chen was refreshed, and he handed over his hands in thanks and said: Thank you City Master Ye very much.
Haha, you're welcome.
Senior Ye, Zhou Ziru and I want to set off for Hongxi City tomorrow.
Tomorrow would be too soon. Ye Wu was stunned for a moment and said: I haven't fully repaid you two for your kindness.
Zhan Chen smiled slightly and said: City Lord Ye, no need, we have done what we can, and your map is the best reward for us.
Suddenly, Ye Cui'e, who was sitting on the other side, suddenly shouted, attracting everyone's attention to look at her.
Ye Wu was stunned for a moment and asked: Cui'e, what's the matter with you?
Ye Cui'e seemed to have made a lot of determination and said: Dad, I request to go to Hongxi City again to sell our goods.
Ye Wu was very surprised and asked: My daughter, you were attacked by robbers just now, aren't you afraid?
Dad, I have always been carefree under your protection in the past, but through the experience of being robbed last time, I learned that the world is difficult and dangerous. Don’t worry, I will be careful this time, and my daughter has already
When you grow up, I should share your worries so that you can focus on your retreat practice.
Ye Wu remained silent, still worried.
Ye Cui'e further persuaded me: Dad, I want to go with my two benefactors. Firstly, I can guide them and repay their life-saving grace. Secondly, with them protecting me, this trip will be safe and smooth.
Seeing that she insisted on doing this, Ye Wu could only sigh and said: Well, be careful, you can stay in the house for a few more days.
Zhan Chen and Zhou Ziru naturally agreed, because they knew very well that the tidal swamp was ever-changing and it was easy to get lost even if they had a map of the area. Now it would be great to have a familiar guide to guide the way.
So they stayed for nearly a week. During this week, Ye Wu held a grand burial ceremony for Ge Chun and others, and then held a banquet for Zhan Chen and Zhou Ziru for a few days, and discussed and shared his knowledge of martial arts with them.
We have benefited a lot from each other's experience, and after a few days, we have become lifelong friends.
Zhan Chen once specifically asked Ye Wu for advice on how to break through the Martial Saint. At that time, Ye Wu looked dignified and warned him seriously: Zhan Chen, the process of breaking through the Martial Saint is different from the previous breakthroughs. The reason is that stepping into the Saint
The environment will undergo a slow and extremely painful transformation of the whole body. This process requires great perseverance and cannot be endured.
So you will see why many strong men in the Great Perfection of Emperor Wu hesitate to try to break through to the Holy Realm because they are afraid that they will not be able to bear this painful process and will fall short. At that time, it will cause serious consequences, ranging from damage to the meridians and Dantian, to severe damage to the meridians and Dantian.
Then the Dantian will be destroyed, the cultivation level will be completely useless, and even the path of life and death will disappear.
Are the consequences so serious? Zhan Chenjing asked.
Of course, because to become a Martial Saint, you must first use your Martial Emperor Diagram to open up a space in your Dantian, and then you must completely integrate the Martial Emperor Diagram with this opened space and combine it into a stable space.
Because it looks like an alchemy furnace, we in the world of cultivation call it the Yuan furnace. However, generating the Yuan furnace is only the beginning of a breakthrough.
Next, all your true essence will be merged into the Yuan furnace, re-compressed and smelted, so that the quality of the true essence formed will be improved to a higher level. The newly refined true essence will be used on the entire body.
Transformation, and this process is the most difficult and dangerous. We call it scripture washing
When cutting marrow, if the foundation is not solid and the meridians are not strong enough, the meridians will continue to be damaged because they cannot withstand the new generation of tough true energy, and eventually they will have to self-destruct the Yuan furnace, causing damage to the Dantian and repairing the marrow.
If you don't make progress, you will retreat, and there may even be no possibility of breakthrough in your life.
These people are considered lucky. Some people's meridians can barely withstand the transformation at first. However, when the true energy travels to the brain and transforms the subtle meridians in the brain, something goes wrong. Now it's really over.
Turning into dementia and becoming a walking zombie is the best outcome. In severe cases, life is not guaranteed.
Will breaking through the Martial Saint also transform the brain? Zhan Chen's scalp feels numb just thinking about it.
That's natural. Didn't I just say that the transformation of the body by breaking through the holy realm is comprehensive, and the transformation of the brain is the most critical part. Through transformation, the saint's spiritual intelligence and reaction ability will greatly increase, ten times as much as
The Great Perfection of Emperor Wu is the strongest one. This is where Wu Sheng surpasses Emperor Wu the most.
Zhan Chen Ziru's leap from the Great Perfection realm of the Martial Emperor to the Martial Saint realm is a huge hurdle, like a fish jumping over a dragon's gate. Not one of the thousand Martial Emperor masters can become a Martial Saint.
Therefore, you must be fully prepared before you decide to break through to the Martial Saint. The process of breaking through to the Martial Saint is long and arduous. It takes an ordinary genius three years, and the higher the qualifications, the longer the genius takes.
The more thorough the transformation of the body, the higher the combat power will naturally be after the breakthrough.
After breaking through the Martial Saint, you can use the Holy Weapon. The power of the Holy Weapon lies not only in its material, but also in the tempering and nourishing of it by the warrior. The Yuan Furnace in the Martial Saint's body forms its own space, which can usually accommodate the Holy Weapon.
Continuously tempering it to make it higher grade and more powerful
Later, Ye Wu told them many mysteries about the Martial Saint. He had no reservations about these two juniors and told them everything he knew. Through his explanation, he opened the door for Zhan Chen and Zhou Ziru.
The fog of cognition also gave the two of them a clearer understanding of the road to take in the future.
In the next few days, Zhan Chen often took out the things he mentioned and chewed and tasted them over and over again. He couldn't help but pay attention to this. According to Ye Wu, breaking through the holy realm requires caution and you can't go wrong.
step.
Finally, he thought: Didn't City Lord Ye once say that there are countless opportunities waiting for us in Hongxi City. If we get there, I might be able to encounter some, making the breakthrough easier.
A week passed in the blink of an eye. Ye Cui'e bid farewell to her father and once again led the team on the road to Hongxi City. Zhan Chen and Zhou Ziru also went with them. This time, Ye Wu was particularly concerned about his daughter's safety.
, sent many powerful guards to them.
A group of more than a dozen people embarked on the journey, and it was easy to kill monsters along the way. Ye Cui'e and others had a magnetic pole clock to assist in their orientation, and they were familiar with the roads in this area. They were familiar with driving and did not encounter any difficulties or obstacles. That was enough.
Traveled nearly five hundred miles.
At this time, Zhan Chen had doubts in his mind again, so he said to Ye Cui'e: Ye Cui'e, your Magnetic Pole City is nearly 800 miles away from Hongxi City. We have now traveled 500 miles, and we have almost left the distance that the magnetic pole clock can indicate.
range, then there are still three hundred miles left, and we cannot rely on the magnetic pole clock for positioning, so how can we determine the location of Hongtide City?
Ye Cui'e smiled slightly and explained: There is no problem in these three hundred miles, because the Xijiang River is nearby. We only need to travel along the Xijiang River to find Hongxi City.
Is Xijiang a big river?
Yes, it is a very wide river, but because there are many monsters and beasts around here, no one lives on both sides of the river. However, warriors often appear in this area. We can find a tall tree and we can
Found traces of this big river.
After saying that, Ye Cui'e climbed onto a nearby big tree, looked around, pointed in a direction and shouted: "I found it, let's go in that direction"
After she came down, everyone headed in the direction she indicated. Not long after, they heard the sound of rolling river water coming from far away, so they speeded up their pace happily and quickly came to the end of the grass, parting the last bushes and heading towards
At first glance, a large river tens of thousands of meters wide lies in front of everyone. It is the Xijiang River.
The Xijiang River meanders and flows downhill, with no beginning or end in sight. After standing on the bank of the river for a while, Ye Cui'e said: Let's go.
As Xijiang continued to move forward, Zhan Chen found that many warriors appeared. These warriors often walked together and seemed to be looking for something nearby. He learned from Ye Cui'e and others that these people came to experience in the flood swamp.
Most of those who explore are mainly for hunting monsters or looking for elixirs, and some are for treasure hunting.
Speaking of treasure hunting, Zhan Chen was very curious and asked Ye Cui'e: Cui'e, this flood swamp is just a vast expanse of water plants at a glance. What treasures are there?
At this time, a trace of confusion flashed in Ye Cui'e's eyes, and she replied: Regarding this aspect, I have only heard from my father. It is said that this flood swamp is still quite young, and its lifespan is only a few hundred thousand years since it was formed. Legend has it that
Before, this place was quite prosperous, and powerful warriors abounded. However, due to the changes in the sea and the continent, this place became a vast swamp, and those former cities became ruins and were buried under this swamp.
So to this day, warriors still find the tombs of ancient powerful men here from time to time, obtain the treasures and wealth in them, and become rich overnight. Therefore, although the flood swamp is dangerous, it is also a paradise for many treasure hunters.
Zhan Chen smiled and said: I didn't expect this swamp to have such an origin.
Yes, my dad often said that the tidal swamp is full of endless adventures and treasures, all waiting for those who are destined to discover them.
While they were talking, the person exploring the way in front shouted loudly: Miss, we are almost there.
Zhan Chen looked forward hurriedly, and through the heavy fog, he seemed to vaguely see a city where the water and the sky met.
