Chapter 19 Breakthrough
Mingyue of the Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/ The latest work of Xiangnan Xiaoxiaosheng! It has been half a year since the first time I entered the mountain. I have also entered the mountain twice, but every time I enter the mountain, he vaguely feels that someone is following him.
The first time he ran fast, entered the depths of the mountains, and quickly got rid of it. After the picking task, he found no abnormalities.
The second time, maybe the other party was prepared, but he could not get rid of it. So he circled around the outer layer of Qinmang Mountain and took nearly ten days to complete the task. This was thanks to the health preservation scripture he practiced. After the fifth layer, his senses were much sharper than before, allowing him to clearly distinguish between wild grass and medicinal materials in the grass.
I remembered the scene when I got rid of the stalking last time. At that time, I was quick to learn to wisdom and came to a gully, threw a stone forward, and he was buried in a pile of grass. Thanks to his practice of turtle breathing, he did not leak a single breath, so he escaped a disaster.
Judging from the aura of that person, this person definitely has the late stage of the martial arts. Once he is entangled, there will be a fierce battle. Whether he can escape is still a question. No wonder several people in the Crop Tiger Gang disappear every year, and collecting herbs is indeed a dangerous profession.
Zou Li exhaled a breath of turbid air and sighed. This was his nth time to hit the fifth level of Iron Bone Kung Fu. I heard that among the outer disciples, several of them had already broken through to the late stage of the martial arts master, and among them was Liu Min.
I'm really a little unwilling to give up!
Since he returned from the last time he collected herbs, he deeply felt that collecting herbs is really a dangerous industry and must change it as soon as possible. The way to change is to own or rent the medicinal field in the Gangjiao, but all the premise is that he must be in the Wuzong realm.
Every time I really feel that it is only a little bit short, just a little bit, and you can break through the fourth level, enter the fifth level, and achieve the middle stage of the martial arts.
As long as you become the Wuzong realm, you can buy a house in the gang, have your own medicinal field, and then you can transplant some medicinal materials yourself. After a few years, you won’t have to go up the mountain. Stay in the gang and complete the task. At that time, just bring one or two servants to help you take care of yourself, and you can concentrate on practicing and your skills can also improve faster.
I will go into the mountain again in five days. It is time to go to the town to see if I can find a piece of top-quality spiritual jade and add some supplies.
I picked it up casually and set off. I searched for it in various jade shops, but I still had no gains. I walked into the store where I got the last piece of beautiful jade last time with the last glimmer of hope.
The old man was precocious and knew what kind of beautiful jade Zou Li wanted. When he saw Zou Li come in, he shook and said, "The kind of jade you want, there is no one now."
When Zou Li heard this, he was extremely disappointed and turned around and wanted to go out. In a blink of an eye, he saw a little girl about ten years old in the shop with a piece of jade hanging around her neck. The piece of jade was extremely pure, and there was a faint mist flowing. Isn’t this the jade he was looking for?
He hurriedly took a few steps and said, "Little sister, can you show me this piece of jade?"
The little girl was flipping through a book when she suddenly saw Zou Li coming over. She was startled and hurriedly got up and retreated. Unexpectedly, she was blocked by a chair and sat on the chair again. Her body tilted and she was about to fall to the ground.
As soon as the figure shook, Zou Li stepped forward to pull the little girl. Although the little girl was pulled, she was avoided from the bad luck of being fallen to the ground. She found herself being pulled by a strange man. She was shocked and screamed in a hurry: "What are you doing, Grandpa, save me!"
When Zou Li saw this, he was stunned for a moment, hurriedly relaxed, and took a step back and said, "Don't be afraid, little sister, I'm not sure."
The little girl who had not stood firmly then continued to fall down. The girl screamed again, and Zou Li had to catch it again and support it.
At this time, the shopkeeper Wang had already come over and said, "Young Master Zou, what are you doing?" There was a hint of anger in his tone.
Zou Li said a little embarrassedly: "Shopkeeper Wang, can you sell me that piece of jade? I'll pay more."
When the little girl saw it, she hurriedly covered her neck and shook her head and said, "That's mine. If you don't sell it, you won't sell it! You are a bad guy and want to steal my things!"
In the end, Zou Li tried his best to coax and cheat, which cost nearly 30% more than last time. He also agreed to the little girl with an additional condition to calculate. This additional condition was that Zou Li agreed to catch a bird for her to play with.
Zou Li pinched the beautiful jade in it, trembling all over, as if he was worried that he would fly as soon as he sprinkled the jade.
As he was worried about gains and losses, he returned to the gang. He looked at the Lingyu in himself again, took a deep breath, calming himself down. He knew that he had hope for breaking through the fourth level.
After adjusting his mentality and completing his routine, he did not use this piece of jade to practice immediately. He understood that only by adjusting to the best state can he play the best role. He plans to break through in the forest behind the mountain tomorrow, where the conditions are better.
There was nothing to say all night, and the morning light was slightly dewed. Zou Li came to the woods of the back mountain as usual, sat cross-legged towards the Xiguang, and used the iron bone skills over and over again. He did not hold the beautiful jade until he was in his best condition. A stream of warm air radiated from the jade and was absorbed by himself. He rushed to the last acupoint on the fourth floor, and after a while it was filled with overflow, rushing towards the other meridian, once, twice.
Zou Li felt a shock, and the closed meridians finally cracked a small gap after several impacts. Under the impact of the powerful spiritual energy, the barrier was completely destroyed, and the muscles and membranes moved again, and a new force was generated from it, and the fourth layer was finally broken through.
Pinching the fist, his strength increased at least twice. But the new energy did not stop and swam towards one of the acupoints. However, this acupoint did not seem to welcome it and did not welcome it. It had to keep hitting in front of the acupoints.
Zou Li knew that he could not be impatient when practicing, so he led the spiritual energy back to the acupoint that had just been rushing away and washed it repeatedly. After a while, a spiraling cyclone was generated in the new acupoint. As the cyclone became faster and faster, the spiritual energy also flocked in.
A hint of swelling and pain woke Zou Li up, "Not good!"
Zou Li then forced the Iron Bone Technique to forcefully stop, a burst of qi and blood floated, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.
You should know that practice must be carried out step by step. Once the acupoints are damaged, their ability to absorb energy will drop sharply, which will inevitably affect the development of strength and may even affect the improvement of future cultivation.
Zou Li gently touched the corner of his mouth, adjusted his breath for a while, and then stood up. He held it twice, and a smile rose on his face.
"Haha, I finally broke through to the fifth level."
You should know that it is stuck at the top of the fourth floor for at least half a year.
Then he smiled bitterly again, "Hi! The fourth floor is so difficult, I wonder what will happen to the sixth floor?"
Zou Li took a few steps, looked out the window and said firmly: "No matter what, you must persevere and never retreat halfway." After that, he also clenched his hands tightly.
Then I remembered something and hurriedly opened it. The spiritual jade in the middle did not disappear, but the color became much lighter. It seemed that it would become debris like the last time I used it again.
Where can I find this kind of spiritual jade? Zou Li became distressed again.
In the following days, Zou Li was concentrating on practicing in his own training room. He decided to raise his health exercises to the sixth floor before going up the mountain.
As soon as dawn, Zou Li stood up and stretched, and there was a crisp sound all over his body, which made him feel much more comfortable.
Just yesterday, Zou Li clearly felt that there was no progress in the health preservation scriptures. Zou Li decided to give it a try, took out the remaining piece of spiritual jade, grabbed it, and ran the exercises. The originally slightly disgusting spiritual energy suddenly rushed into his body like a torrent. Zou Li calmed down and slowly guided it over.
I don’t know how long it took, a flood peak hit the barrier, and with a "wave" sound, the barrier cracked like gravel. The six layers of health preservation came so easily, which gave Zou Li an unexpected surprise. It really felt that happiness came too suddenly. Just when he was intoxicated by himself, the spiritual jade in the middle suddenly dissipated into powder.
Zou Li looked at it and sighed again. As the spiritual jade dissipated, the practice became slower again. Most of the time has passed in this quarter, and the task has not yet begun. It is time to go into the mountain to collect herbs.
Chapter completed!
