Chapter 12 The First Murder
The third update is light and the fifth update is when a man is diligent. He does not know how to study hard early, but only when he is old, he regrets his practice late.
While Xuan Yuanhao was devoted to martial arts practice and alchemy, a conspiracy against Xuan Yuanhao gradually began.
The news that Xuan Yuanhao agreed to enter the inner sect of the Xu family was only spread within the Xu family and did not attract much attention from the outside.
After all, it is not surprising that it is common to include outstanding children of the collateral system into the inner sect and strengthen the family power.
However, in the eyes of some people, Xuan Yuanhao's move is ignorant of being polite and not giving himself face.
Zhang Family.
There was a clamor of falling items in the boudoir.
Zhang Huiwen, who was so angry that she threw all kinds of accessories on the dressing table to the ground.
"Miss, why do you have to be as good as a little person? Xuan Yuanhao ignored your enthusiastic invitation and refused to come to our Zhang family. That was his loss, and he would definitely regret it in the future." Zhang Huiwen's girl, Xiaoyue, comforted the lady.
"There is no regret medicine in this world. I will make him pay the price for his choice now. Xiaoyue, go and help me find Zhang Ye to see me, and say I have something to do."
Zhang Ye is Zhang Huiwen's fanatical suitor. He was originally a child of the Zhang family's sidelines. Because of his high cultivation talent, he was introduced to the inner sect of the Zhang family three years ago. He successfully cleansed his marrow and hair removal a year ago. He is now at the first level of the Marrow and Cleansing Realm.
The reason why he was fanatical about pursuing Zhang Huiwen was that in addition to coveting Zhang Huiwen's beauty, the ambitious Zhang Ye also hoped to win the trust of Zhang Huiwen's father, Zhang Mingyang, the current Zhang family's boss, in order to have better development in the future.
With the strength of the first level of the Marrow Cleansing Realm, you should be able to fight a warrior at the first level of the Bone Forging Realm.
Zhang Huiwen gave herself a reassurance.
Zhang Ye received the order from Zhang Huiwen and was happy to be ordered, and said that he would definitely be fatal and fulfill his mission.
In addition to being ambitious and ruthless, Zhang Ye is not a brave and unscrupulous person. You should know that if he left some clues to murder the lives of the Xu family's inner family, and was discovered by the Xu family, Zhang Ye would not be able to escape death, and even caused the struggle between the Xu and Zhang families. At that time, even if the Zhang family wanted to protect him, he would be powerless.
Zhang Ye spent three days paying attention to Xuan Yuanhao's life rules and work and rest time, and planned to take action on Chaoyangpo, the place he must pass on when Xuan Yuanhao's cultivation from Guilong Mountain.
A sunrise slope is remote and convenient for hiding yourself.
Second, it was just dawn at that time, and there were not many people passing by, so it was not easy to attract attention from others.
Three things Xuan Yuanhao has just finished practicing, and is relatively tired and has the lowest level of vigilance.
A lion fights a rabbit, and also uses all his strength.
Zhang Ye made full preparations and planned to adopt a sneak attack in order to win with one move and kill him with one blow.
As usual, Xuan Yuanhao finished practicing from Guilong Mountain and focused on using the steps of playing with dragons and phoenixes to quickly return to the town.
Zhang Ye, who was waiting for his work, saw Xuan Yuanhao coming quickly, and was not prepared. He showed a smirk on his face. He had already begun to build momentum in his hands, preparing to use his best martial arts "Listening to the Wind Slay".
Twenty meters
Ten meters
Five meters
Zhang Ye made a quick attack with "Ting Wind Slash" without any defense, and the sudden gathering of spiritual power caused a faint movement of the air.
Almost as Zhang Ye used his ultimate skill, the keen Xuan Yuanhao felt a slight change in the air in front of the left. He thought that a beast had pounced out, and subconsciously started to leaps forward to the right. At the same time, he used a "wind movement" move in his hand and then attacked the left front.
Although Xuan Yuanhao subconsciously moved and dodged, avoiding some of the palm wind; the "wind movement" in his hand offset some of the spiritual power, Zhang Ye was a warrior who successfully cleansed his marrow, and about 60% of the palm force still hit Xuan Yuanhao.
Xuan Yuanhao stumbled backwards, barely maintaining his body, and blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
"Boy, it seems that I underestimated you. I didn't expect that you, a small bone-fighting warrior, could actually avoid the killing attack of the Marrow-washing warrior.
Although the information I received before was that your martial arts realm was the first level of the bone forging realm, I didn’t expect that in just a few days you would actually practice to the third level of the bone forging realm.
But even so, your good luck has come to an end. Today, you must leave your life on the Chaoyang slope. Who made you offend someone you shouldn't offend?"
The seriously injured Xuan Yuanhao tried to mobilize his spiritual power and investigated his meridian injury.
Xuan Yuanhao was surprised to find that the spiritual power entering his body did not completely swallow his meridians, but ran wildly in his body and finally gathered in a certain place in his dantian. After struggling for a while, the spiritual power finally returned to peace.
It is like a rushing stream, which seems to be turbulent and turbulent. Once you return to the rivers, lakes and seas, you will never be able to make waves again.
In other words, Zhang Ye's fatal blow did not cause fatal damage to Xuan Yuanhao's meridians, but the trauma seemed to be quite serious.
This surprised and relieved Xuan Yuanhao.
Xuan Yuanhao quickly retreated to a flat and wide place, hoping to take advantage of his pace, deal with the other party and wait for an opportunity to escape.
Zhang Ye’s goal of this trip was to kill Xuan Yuanhao, so he naturally would not let Xuan Yuanhao escape easily.
"Today I will practice your skills to let you know the power of a martial artist in the Marrow Cleansing Realm." Zhang Ye used all his strength without hesitation, and a set of "listening to the wind" rushed towards Xuan Yuanhao like a strong wind and rain.
Xuan Yuanhao barely used his advantage in pace and his strength in physical fitness to deal with the opponent. At the same time, he used the first three moves of the martial arts "Wind Thunder Hand" "Wind and Thunder Hand", "Wind and Crazy", "Wind and Clouds" and the simple moves contained in the Five Elements Body Tempering Technique.
But the gap in realms is too big, and Xuan Yuanhao only has passive beatings most of the time.
The tendon refining and bone-making realm are only the initial stage of a warrior. Only when the marrow is successfully washed can it mark the first time that a warrior can see the martial arts.
Using the third level of the bone-forging realm to deal with the first level of the Marrow-washing realm is like a child fighting an arm wrestling with a young man, of course it is unfair.
But the survival rule of the martial world is to survive by natural selection, survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest, and survival of the fittest is not fair.
The sharp palm wind and Xuan Yuanhao's body had intimate contact again and again, and the fierce spiritual power was injected into Xuan Yuanhao's body again and again.
Although most of the spiritual power is absorbed by somewhere in the Dantian, Xuan Yuanhao was not hit by iron after all, with more and more wounds on his body and his meridians getting damaged more and more seriously.
Xuan Yuanhao was extremely anxious. If he continued to do so, he would really have to give his life here today.
On the other hand, Zhang Ye was becoming more and more impatient and more guilty. With the cultivation level of the first level of the Marrow Cleansing Realm, the opponent was a warrior of the third level of the Bone Forging Realm, and he had sneaked into a sneak attack in advance. Although he had tried all his strength, he saw that Xuan Yuanhao was already shaking and defeated, he could always barely defend and escape from danger at critical moments.
This gave Zhang Ye a great blow to his confidence.
Besides, killing 3,000 enemies and causing damage to himself by 800, Zhang Ye was also hit by Xuan Yuanhao's body. Although Xuan Yuanhao's cultivation was far lower than himself, his spiritual power was very pure, and after entering his body, it also caused great damage to his meridians.
If the stalemate cannot be over, it depends on who has a stronger heart and who has a stronger will.
"Boy Zhang, are you only having these three moves over and over again? It seems that you haven't practiced martial arts much yet. If you only know these three moves, you will have to go back and forth today." Zhang Ye tried to destroy Xuan Yuanhao's confidence.
At the critical moment, the sound of a small stone in your mind sounded in your ears, "Xiao Haozi, you are really useless. Even a small warrior at the first level of the Marrow Cleansing Realm can't deal with it. During the battle just now, if I hadn't devoured Zhang Ye's 80% spiritual power that invaded your body, you would have exploded and died."
While trying hard to deal with Zhang Ye, Xuan Yuanhao communicated with the little pebbles with consciousness, "My little ancestor, it's time, you still have the heart to mock me. I am your host. If I die, you will not get any benefits."
"It was because I knew you were in danger that I forced myself to wake up and save your life. Xiao Haozi listened, I will teach you a move of "Hundred Birds Paying to the Phoenix". This is a martial art created by the old man Qixia based on the alchemy technique. Unfortunately, the old man Qixia had no intention of martial arts, so he created such a move. At the same time, I will lend you the spiritual power I have accumulated to use, and remember to double the amount of repaying me next time."
Can you still create your own martial arts by practicing alchemy? Although Xuan Yuanhao has many questions, he has no time to think about it now.
If you sharpen your guns in the face of battle, you will lose even if you don’t feel happy.
According to the information provided by Xiaoshizi, Xuan Yuanhao quickly gathered his spiritual power and used complex gestures like elixir. The white spiritual power gradually formed and accumulated in front of him, forming a voluminous phoenix shape.
Zhang Ye looked at the strange movements on Xuan Yuanhao's hand. The fist was not as good as the fist, and the palm was not like the palm, as if it was refining an alchemy.
Xuan Yuanhao is said to be an alchemy apprentice with good qualifications. Was he so scared that he thought he was refining alchemy?
Zhang Ye was a little distracted at that moment.
The duel of experts cannot tolerate a moment of distraction.
Just when Zhang Ye was distracted, Xuan Yuanhao was surprised and made a quick attack, and a "Danfeng Chaoyang" quickly hit out. His spiritual power was like a phoenix spreading its wings and was about to fly, hitting Zhang Ye's heart.
Zhang Ye's figure flew back uncontrollably, seriously injured, lying on the ground and unable to move.
Xuan Yuanhao was not much better. After using this move, Xuan Yuanhao felt like a deflated ball, and he felt like he was exhausted all over his body.
Xuan Yuanhao quickly took a healing pill. After a moment of adjustment, he gathered his spiritual power again. Seeing that Zhang Ye was still lying on the ground and unable to move, Xuan Yuanhao endured the pain of the throne and walked over. He hesitated for a while. Finally, he ignored Zhang Ye's begging for mercy and punched him out. Zhang Ye died on the spot.
This was the first time Xuan Yuanhao killed someone in three years. He thought that he would be panic and even vomit after killing Zhang Ye. He hesitated and struggled just now, but Xuan Yuanhao found that he was so calm at this moment.
War only has victory or defeat, and being kind to the enemy means being cruel to oneself.
This life-and-death battle with Zhang Ye made Xuan Yuanhao clearly realize his shortcomings - his lack of effective martial arts and practical experience.
It also gave him a clear understanding of his strength. Although he could be invincible under the marrow cleaning, once he encountered a strong man in the marrow cleaning realm, he would have almost no power to fight. Improving his strength is the top priority.
At the same time, the move that Xiao Shizi taught temporarily also gained some insights from Xuan Yuanhao. If he could combine alchemy and martial arts practice, he could achieve twice the result with half the effort and complement each other.
Xuan Yuanhao found a hidden place and refined three spirit stones in succession to regain his injuries by circulating his spiritual power. At the same time, he also took several pills that would help restore his injuries and spiritual power.
Although the elixir has limited performance, it is finally better than nothing.
