Chapter 64: Into the Micro
Time flies, and three months have passed in a blink of an eye, from autumn to winter.
It was dusk, the sky was dark, the north wind was howling, and heavy snow like goose feathers fluttered down from the sky.
Looking down from the sky, the entire Changle County was covered with silver and white.
Many of the pedestrians on the road were wearing thick cotton coats, squinted their necks, and were in a hurry.
But there are also some refugees and beggars wearing single clothes, barely making a nest with straw, covered with some messy branches, hiding inside, trembling.
The situation outside the city is tense, and refugees keep entering the city. It’s okay in summer, but in winter, now every morning, a few frozen refugee bodies are indispensable in the corners of the city.
After the refugees enter the city, they have no support. The young and middle-aged people will soon be absorbed by some gangs in the city. Those children with beautiful eyes will most likely be taken as servants by wealthy families, and young women will not worry about where to go.
Only some people with physical disabilities or elderly people can only beg along the streets and will freeze to death on the streets one day.
These days, Zhou Tong has been in seclusion and practiced. Only when the captain comes back occasionally will he leave his residence and learn about the current situation.
A month ago, Xiao Chen successfully broke through to the realm of control, worthy of his reputation as the number one genius in the way of blood. Zhou Tong simply congratulated him and immersed himself in his cultivation again.
Now, he has successfully practiced the six martial arts included in the seven-minded martial arts of Alliance Leader Chen to a perfect state, and the remaining one is about to succeed.
As for bloodline cultivation, it is also at the threshold of breaking through the blood body realm.
In the room, Zhou Tong sat cross-legged. He was full of energy and blood. He was wearing a single dress. He was not afraid of the cold and had a bright look. "The breakthrough is today."
Zhou Tong took out a Xuanyuan Pill, swallowed it into his belly, and began to refine it hard.
In just half an hour, Zhou Tong's bloodline began to become restless and kept making buzzing sounds. The sound was mild at first, but then it gradually became louder.
At some point, he finally reached the critical point, and his whole body was shocked. Deep in his blood, new blood power emerged, gathering together in his body, rushing endlessly.
After another half an hour, Zhou Tong opened his eyes and stood up.
As his mind moved, blood whistled out, covering his whole body, as if a faint light was cast on his whole body, flowing slowly.
Blood power spreads throughout the body, which is the origin of the name of the Blood Body Realm. Compared with the previous Blood Wheel Realm, it is three times stronger once.
Zhou Tong clenched his fists, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and a faint smile appeared. As his mind moved, all the blood power gathered like a dragon entering the sea, gathering like a dantian.
"Now, I have already surpassed the leader of Alliance Chen in my strength. Those top experts in the blood body realm are vulnerable to me. I just don't know how much worse it is compared to the control realm."
Zhou Tong's eyes moved slightly, "But this is not the end of my strength."
"I only have the last Tianxiao Technique left for Uncle Chen's Seven-Certain Martial Arts. Once I have mastered it, I will reach the realm of Enlightenment and master the Seven-Certain Sun-Swallowing Hand, and my martial arts strength will soar again."
Zhou Tong murmured in a low voice and sat down again, "This last Tianxiao Technique is practiced today!"
With a moment of movement, the substitute ghost in his mind fully fulfilled his job as a slave and began to pull the ground without any complaints.
As the qi and blood were integrated into the body, Uncle Chen's martial arts experience also came one after another.
As time passed, Zhou Tong's body surging with blood and blood, and he sat upright there. Under the qi and blood, his muscles trembled all over his body, like a stove, making the room in the cold winter become as warm as spring.
At some point, Zhou Tong's whole body's blood and blood went up the floor again, and his muscles suddenly expanded like an explosion, and the surrounding air fluctuated, causing ripples.
Originally, Zhou Tong's height had grown from 1.85 meters to 1.9 meters these days. His body was swelling and his muscles were energetic. He sat there, giving people a ferocious and fierce smell.
"It's done!"
Zhou Tong suddenly opened his eyes, a light flashed through his eyes, and his qi and blood began to slowly converge.
At the same time, his mind sank and entered a strange state.
He closed his eyes, but everything around him seemed to be reflected in his mind.
Time seems to have slowed down.
A piece of snow fell slowly from the sky and gently covered the eaves.
An insect crawled past the corner of the house, its tentacles trembled, as if searching for something.
The yellow dog raised by the next door was sleeping in the nest. The heartbeats were like war drums, and they were clearly divided into Zhou Tong's ears.
The movements and stillness around him were reflected in Zhou Tong's mind, and he was very clearer as he got closer, and the farther he got, it became a little blurry.
He opened his eyes suddenly and swept his eyes to the corner of the beam of the room, where there was a broken spider web with a tiny mosquito on it. He had long known how long he had died.
Zhou Tong reached out and took off a piece of hair, waved it, and the hair shot out like a sharp arrow, inserted it into the mosquitoes, clamped it and penetrated it, but the spider web did not tremble at all.
"Is this so wonderful? It's really amazing."
Zhou Tong stood up long, and his face filled with joy.
"Now, I have practiced twelve martial arts to a perfect level in total. Once I activate the moon-level secret hand, the seven-swallowing sun-swallowing hand, my combat power suddenly exploded four times. In terms of light martial arts, I have 48 units of combat power.
If we add the combat power of the 18 units that activate the star-level secret skills in the Blood Body Realm, we will have the strength of 66 units, and the ordinary Blood Body Realm is only nine units, and I will be more than seven times theirs!"
Zhou Tong's heart was filled with strong self-confidence. Although he had never faced a powerful person in the realm of control, he was not afraid at all when facing ordinary realm of control!
After a long time, Zhou Tong suppressed his excitement and began to think of the future of martial arts.
The combat power of the Blood Body Realm is nine units. Logically speaking, he has achieved great success in his twelve martial arts, and his qi and blood have long surpassed the Blood Body Realm.
If he compares the way of blood, he should have reached his limit.
However, Zhou Tong knew that the way of blood is different from secular martial arts. As the secular martial arts deepened, the qi and blood were slowly growing.
The way of blood, whether from the blood realm to the blood wheel realm, or from the blood wheel realm to the blood body realm, will only breed excess blood power and suddenly increase in strength in the moment of breakthrough.
By analogy, one is equivalent to daily wages, and the other is paid every six months or quarterly.
Therefore, in the same blood body state, the total amount of blood power is the same, but the energy contained in the bloodline is actually different for those who have just entered the blood and those who have reached the peak.
Just like Xiao Chen and others, they had already reached the blood body realm before, but they had to continue practicing for a while, absorbing the mysterious energy from the elixirs or the flesh of wild beasts, nourishing their bloodlines, and only after reaching a certain level will they try to break through the control realm with the help of resources.
At that time, the energy in their bloodline had actually exceeded nine units, and the rest would only be realized if they had to break through the control realm.
Of course, the nourishment time this time will not be long. It will not be like before, and it will continue to nourish to the limit, and then naturally break through and its strength soars to three times its original strength.
Because this time, they do not have bottlenecks like before. They will encounter bottlenecks. When they have no entry, they need some precious resources to assist. In that process, their bloodline will be nourished and upgraded quickly.
"It's almost time to reach the limit."
Zhou Tong's eyes flashed, and he felt that at most he practiced one or two martial arts, and his martial arts would reach its limit.
Fortunately, the substitute ghost still has a certain potential for suppression, which is enough to allow him to practice two martial arts.
"As the name suggests, everything is for martial arts. I believe that when I reach the limit, it will point me in the direction of my progress!"
Zhou Tong is very looking forward to this.
