.......
Four hundred years later, another hero.
Qiao Mu's eyes fell on the line of death evaluation, and he hesitated slightly.
This time, his evaluation was "the one blamed by thousands of people and the source of disaster." He was said to be the source of this disaster, which is clearly a bad reputation.
As a result, it got an S+ rating.
In the past, every time Qiao Mu went to die, the most it would take was S, which was about 30 years, while S+ would take 40 years, which is an increase of one-third.
Did this one-third grow out of notoriety?
"It's exactly what I thought at the beginning. Regardless of fame or bad reputation, even if you die in an unfavorable way, your evaluation can still be improved."
"Even... Longevity Lock is inclined towards notoriety and gave me an unprecedented S+ rating. Is this to encourage me to gain notoriety?"
This time Qiao Mu saved the city alone, doing good deeds and gaining a bad reputation.
"A bunch of idiots who don't know what they mean. For this rating to reach such a high level, I guess there must be a lot of people in the city who have a grudge against me. They think that I am the source of the disaster that caused the flood, and I am still the target of thousands of people." Woolen cloth."
When he rescued the city from King Yu's army, the defenders and people in the city might think that he was a heroic man who saved the city alone.
But as soon as the Yunxiao Sect monk came out, Qiao Long's status in their hearts suddenly fell from the sky to the bottom.
I originally set my heart towards the bright moon, but why does the bright moon shine in the ditch?
But it's not important.
Qiao Mu never had any expectations for them, and he didn't do anything to save these idiots.
He was more concerned about another thing at this time.
In the sea of heart, the lock of longevity is still there, and the last two chains are swaying gently.
The longevity lock has a total of 5 chains, 3 of which have been broken.
Usually, every time he got an S-level death rating, one of the chains of immortality would break. But this time, he got an S+ rating, but there was no reaction.
"Is it possible that the S+ rating is not enough? Do the two chains at the back need a higher rating than S+?"
Qiao Mu put this issue aside for the time being. The question before Qiao Mu now is...
How should we spend these four hundred years?
In short, you have to find something to do for yourself, otherwise you will go crazy.
The higher the evaluation of death, the deeper the dream every time, and the higher the state of "flow". Taoists say entering tranquility, and Buddhists say entering concentration. It's nothing more than this.
The current S+ rating means that Qiao Mu can immerse himself in martial arts training at any time, and it also has a wonderful promotion effect on studying martial arts.
At this time, Qiao Mu was in no rush to practice martial arts.
After 400 years of flow, he was ready to concentrate on doing big things and crack a hard bone.
With a thought in his mind, his eyes fell on himself in the lonely city in the desert, holding the sword of the Exalted Immortal Flower and Willow Sword in his hand.
Don't know why.
Back then, he and Jian Banxian worked together to use the "Sword Cutting Technique" to kill the sky and exert a power far beyond Qiao Mu's imagination.
It should be noted that this ordinary martial artist's inner strength is only released from a distance of ten meters.
Using force in the air means that the force will rapidly decay with distance.
Therefore, when the immortal monks could fly into the sky and escape from the earth, the warriors who could only punch and kick were in a dilemma in terms of attack methods.
Special martial arts such as "Blood Sword Technique" and "Shattering Void Finger" can extend the attack distance to a certain extent, but they are ultimately limited.
The internal strength of the tree for seven hundred years is extremely astonishing in quantity and can be described as astonishing to the world. But if the internal energy is released externally, it will also decay quickly, but because the amount is too large, the range can exceed the ten-meter limit of ordinary martial arts.
Coupled with the "Blood Sword Technique", an explosive forbidden technique that uses blood as a guide, it can hurt people in the air from a distance of thirty meters.
This distance is more than enough to deal with Wu Fu.
But to deal with monks who can fly into the sky and escape from the earth, especially the Yuhua Daoist who is protected by the blue blood vine, if you want to get close with the eight steps of Tianlong... it is difficult and difficult!
Not to mention getting closer than thirty meters.
The Cang Xue Vine is a strange monster with extremely fast speed. If it comes within thirty meters, it will probably be surrounded all over, which is tantamount to throwing itself into a trap!
If you rely on bows, arrows, hidden weapons, etc. to attack from a distance... that's even more unfeasible.
Not even the Heaven-Zhanping Sword Technique can break through the extremely tough Blue Blood Vine, let alone any hidden weapons.
At this time, Qiao Mu was in a strange flow state, and thoughts were constantly flowing through his mind. He was thinking about ways and ideas to defeat Zhenren Yuhua.
However, after thinking hard for three days, he couldn't find a sure way...
On the fourth day, Qiao Mu stopped talking behind closed doors and stood up. The dream world then changed and once again became the moment before he died in battle:
High in the sky, the Yuhua Zhenren stood above the clouds. The green blood vines protruded from his sleeves and instantly turned into a green vine forest.
Qiao Mu, on the other hand, held the King of Qin Sword in his dream, jumped up again, and charged towards the real Yuhua.
This time, he is no longer in a period of weakness after continuous battles, but in a peak state of vitality and blood. He must be able to ------
Click.
The vines of the Cangxue Vine stretched rapidly, piercing through the ankles of the tree. With a huge force, the tree in the air lost its balance and tipped over. Then, lightning flashed and surrounded the tree's body.
The blood soaked into the vines of the Cang Xue Vine. Qiao Mu noticed that this strange monster could actually absorb human blood...
Arbor, death.
"Grass, even grass can't be beaten."
With a thought, Qiao Mu's body returned to its original shape, and he stood there deep in thought.
It's not that it can't beat the grass. As a strange monster carefully raised by Master Yuanying, this Blue Blood Vine is unusual in nature. It has low intelligence and is lower than other beast monsters, but it can communicate with its master's mind.
In a sense, this Cangxuevine can be regarded as a "living magic weapon" and a flesh weapon of Master Yuhua.
As the Yuan Ying elder of the Beast Control Sect, most of Yu Hua Zhenren's strength lies in the spirit beasts he raises. Therefore, death at the hands of Cang Xue Veng is actually not fundamentally different from death at the hands of Zhenren Yuanying.
"This old man raises such meat weapons. He usually does some shameful things. Could it be that he raises these succulent plants for masturbation?" After another death in a dream, Qiao Mu began to get excited. Victory method.
After calming down a little, he started the next round of attack, trying to defeat Yuhua Zhenren in his dream.
The world in my heart, fight again!
.........
The fourth day.
After three days of hard thinking, plus hundreds of battles and hundreds of deaths on the battlefield in my dream.
Qiao Mu came to a preliminary conclusion:
"With the martial arts skills I have mastered now, even if I try a hundred times, I still won't be able to defeat that old guy who plays with flesh weapons once."
"After three days of thinking, I still can't come up with an effective method."
It is extremely difficult to deal with Zhenren Yuanying by relying on existing means.
During these 400 years, if we only focus on improving our martial arts, continue to accumulate internal strength, and carry out constant quantitative changes, our strength will inevitably increase, but it will not be enough.
If you continue to improve your martial arts, you will only have more inner strength and faster speed. You still have to get close to the Yuhua Daoist who is protected by the Cangxue Vine.
The martial arts he has mastered, the means he has, the martial arts he currently has... there is no way to cross the Blue Blood Vine and kill the real Yuanying.
Then naturally we can only seek another breakthrough.
His defeat at the hands of Master Yuanying was not due to Qiao Mu's personal accumulation, but to his martial arts.
The advantage of immortality over martial arts is like a modern soldier holding a Gatling in his hand, shooting at martial arts masters.
After a martial arts master is defeated, he thinks about how to grow muscles, practice hard skills, practice reaction speed, and practice light skills... This is naturally extremely difficult, and can even be said to be a dead end with no chance of success.
In the past, Qiao Mu could defeat the immortal monks, but he actually followed this stupid path and relied purely on accumulation year after year to reach a point that normal martial arts practitioners could not reach.
But in front of Zhenren Yuanying, the gap between the two sides has reached the point where they cannot win even if they die.
"It's a pity that I only have one iron spirit root." Martial arts is not easy, Qiao Mu sighed.
To practice immortality, you first need spiritual roots and qualifications, secondly you need resources, and thirdly you need incense and aspiration.
Those who can embark on the immortal path are either geniuses or rich brothers, supplemented by incense.
The Nine Immortal Sects have existed to this day, and they have captured the geniuses accumulated in this world over thousands of years, and they have plundered the resources of the entire world.
It would be a fantasy if those who practiced martial arts could easily catch up with those who cultivated immortality.
"Martial arts is too weak. Now I am already at the pinnacle of martial arts, but it is still not enough." Qiao Mu thought in his heart:
"Then we can only develop martial arts and make martial arts go further."
There is no road ahead.
But Qiao Mu is actually not alone.
Like him, there are several other top martial artists who stand at the forefront of Kyushu martial arts.
Fortunately, Qiao Mu has a photographic memory. After seven hundred years of experience, his 'god' has reached the top of the list of gods in his god-refining cultivation.
The top warriors of Kyushu who had met and fought with him all existed vividly in his memory.
With a thought in his mind, the dream world quietly changed, and two warriors appeared in front of him, standing side by side.
One is a sword-exiled immortal with white hair and a handsome face.
One is a martial saint with eyes as deep as the abyss and a cold face.
As for Yan Taizu... Although this man is strong, when he fought with Qiao Mu, he was still an old antique who lived three hundred years ago. Although his martial arts was high, he practiced ancient methods from three hundred years ago.
For today's Qiao Mu, Yan Taizu's martial arts direction does not have much reference value.
Qiao Mu first looked at Jian Banxian.
Although he doesn't know the level of cultivation of Zhenren Yuhua.
But judging from the intuitive perception, this person should be between equals in immortal cultivation with the Qingzhuo Taoist whom he saw in the lonely city in the desert, who was swallowed up by the strong wind. He should be a real person from the Immortal Sect in the early stage of Nascent Soul.
Here comes the problem.
Let’s not care about the quality of the two Nascent Soul Masters for the moment...
Why is the 725-year-old Qiao Mu not a match for Yuhua Zhenren? But back then, the trees in the lonely city in the desert almost endangered the life of Elder Qingzhuo with the help of the Hualiu Sword, which was transformed into a sword to banish an immortal?
In his dream, Qiao Mu carefully observed the battle outside the lonely city in the desert. When he saw that he was holding the Hualiu Sword and slashing the sky with his sword, he frowned:
"The sword light I swung with the Hualiu Sword in my hand was at least several hundred meters, which far exceeded the ten-meter limit of internal energy being released outward."
"That doesn't make sense."
"My inner strength, coupled with the Hualiu Sword transformed by Jian Banxian, has produced some strange changes?"
Jian Banxian is an extremely partial eccentric. His swordsmanship is unparalleled in the world, and he can make rapid progress by turning to the path of immortality.
But he is not an all-rounder. From Qiao Mu's current perspective, Jian Banxian's achievements in the ways of qi and blood and inner strength are actually not high.
"I was the one wielding the sword that day, but in essence it was me and Jian Banxian who joined forces to use my vast inner strength to make up for Jian Banxian's shortcoming of 'heroic shortness of breath'."
A single tree, or a single "hero short of breath" Sword Banished Immortal, would be hated by the real Yuanying.
Otherwise, why would a Sword Exorcist who is dedicated to studying the Iron Crotch Kung Fu give up his body and turn his body into a sword?
"My inner strength, after being paired with the sword to banish the immortal, has undergone some kind of magical change. Can I break through the ten-meter attenuation limit of the inner strength's external release?"
Qiao Mu's thoughts moved again, and this time the dream world turned into a wild mountain village in Heyang Fucheng, Nanzhou. This was the place where he first met Wu Shengren.
The original saint Wu Qingxin changed from the martial arts to the immortal way, and her "bone-eroding and fire-eating" skill has made many internal energy masters complain endlessly.
The bone-corroding fire is a talisman specially developed by the Immortal Power to restrain martial arts. It can use martial arts blood and internal energy as fuel.
Only by relying on a large burst of internal energy can the burning of Li Huo be temporarily suppressed.
It can be suppressed, but cannot be extinguished.
But Qiao Mu recalled carefully and allowed the memory from the dream to reappear, only to find that the martial arts saint who transformed into the swordsman "Old Hu" had at least two ways to deal with Bone Corrosion and Lihuo.
Warm reminder: The website is about to be revised, which may cause the loss of reading progress. Please save the "Bookshelf" and "Reading History" in time (it is recommended to take screenshots to save). We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you!
The first is the exquisite and meticulous knife technique "Pao Ding Jie Niu Knife".
The light of the knife flashed, separating the flesh and blood of the warrior who was stained with fire, like a precise scalpel, preserving the limbs as much as possible.
This is a pure martial arts skill, and even the 725-year-old Qiao Mu can do it.
Second.
When Qiao Mu, Jade-faced Feilong and others were fighting fiercely with Wu Qing, several people, including Qiao Mu, had been burned by bone-eroding fire all over their bodies, deep into their bones.
This is a situation of life and death, because no matter how exquisite the sword skill is, it is just a skill that can separate burning flesh and blood from intact flesh and blood.
But it has been burned by Lihuo for a while, and Lihuo may have penetrated into the bones, so how can it be divided?
Even today's Qiao Mu cannot do such a thing. This is beyond the scope of skill.
But Wu Shengren just did it.
With a thought in Qiao Mu's mind, past memories reappeared in the dream world.
He saw the swordsman "Old Hu" stepping out, pressing the scabbard with his hand. His hand blurred for a moment, and then dozens of sword lights flickered past him.
With just such a slash, although the blood on Qiao Mu and the others surged, the Li Huo that lingered in their bones was extinguished.
"Sure enough." Qiao Mu nodded clearly, thoughtfully.
With his current perspective, he once again looked at the Martial Saint and the Sword Banished Immortal he met, and he saw a problem.
Whether they are martial saints or sword-banished immortals, their inner strength has long been different from that of Qiao Mu.
This kind of "super-grade internal energy" that has experienced some kind of qualitative change has at least two characteristics:
He is not afraid of the bone-corrosive Lihuo created by immortal magic, and can even suppress Lihuo; the force can be emitted quite far away, far exceeding the attenuation law of ten meters.
Thinking of this, Qiao Mu suddenly realized a problem.
"The stone sword that was transformed into the Sword Exorcist is probably not a peerless magic weapon for a martial artist comparable to the Human King Sword in Taizu Yan's hand!"
When he held the Hualiu Sword in his hand and worked together with Jian Banxian to deal with the Qingzhuo Master, the rich inner energy accumulated by Qiao Mu could be turned into Jian Banxian's "Super Grade Internal Energy".
As long as you communicate with the Sword Banished Immortal and use the same "Sword-Destroying Sword Technique", you can, under the guidance of the Sword Banished Immortal, consume a huge amount of internal energy and slash out the sword light that soars into the sky!
Thinking of this tree makes me a little jealous.
With his current martial arts attainments and vision and experience...
If you can hold the Hualiu Sword again, even if you don't have the teachings of Sword Banishing Immortal, as long as you play with it for a while, you should be able to realize the essence of that "superior inner strength" and then seek a breakthrough in this direction.
"I don't know where the Sword Banished Immortal is right now... It should be in the hands of Master Qingzhuo in Zhongzhou. Is he still alive?"
"He has already developed this 'superior inner strength'. Why didn't he give me a hint at that time... That's all. It's weird that he can teach me something by giving him some advice."
As the "god of learning" in martial arts, Jian Banxian relied on his feelings and became the best in the world. But expecting him to teach others is a bit unrealistic.
After all, his brother Lu Yanbei has not broken into the super level and has not mastered this so-called "super level inner energy".
"Inner energy, how can I cultivate it so that it can be transformed into the 'super grade inner energy' of a Sword Exalt Immortal or a Martial Saint?"
This is a big problem facing Qiaomu.
If a breakthrough can be achieved...
With the internal energy he has accumulated for 725 years, he will definitely be able to transform into a dragon in one day.
He has a long time, a full 400 years to solve this problem.
A thought came to my mind.
Qiao Mu once again returned to the library in the lonely city, surrounded by various classics.
There are martial arts secrets, as well as medicine, herbal medicine, and even Taoist and Confucian books.
How to break through? How to deduce Kung Fu, how to deduce martial arts?
The answer to this question is just like Qiao Mu's previous deduction of the Humanity Sutra and Hai Wuya's deduction of the Sumeru Mountain King Sutra in Tianlao.
Read more to learn by analogy.
If you want to create a martial arts, you don’t actually need to study, you rely on martial arts experience.
But in order to deduce martial arts, know what it is and why it is, understand the nature of internal strength, and seek the essence of "superior internal strength", in Qiao Mu's opinion, it may be possible to explore it from books.
............
Four hundred years in the dream were long and boring.
Qiao Mu’s time is not to study all day long.
Sometimes he practiced martial arts, and sometimes he kept recalling the memories of his contacts with sword banished immortals and martial saints, trying to grasp the essence of "superior inner strength" from his memories.
during this long process.
He has also made breakthroughs in other martial arts. He has mastered Spear Saint's "Hundred Birds Chaosing Phoenix Spear" to great perfection. At the same time, he has also continued to improve on Eight-Armed Heavenly Dragon's "Eight Steps of Heavenly Dragon".
Three steps, four steps, five steps to the sky...
In three hundred years, he has practiced this light skill to the extreme, reaching the sky in eight steps.
Qiao Mu's Human Dao Sutra also broke through at the age of 1020, reaching the ninth level.
At the ninth level of the Human Dao Meridian, Qi and blood surged again, and Qiao Mu could feel that his physical body had taken another step forward.
The information in the Qi and Blood column also increased from the original 92% to 99%.
By now, when Qiao Mu was in his early 1000s, he could be said to have rejuvenated, with almost no damage to his energy and blood, not a single wrinkle on his face, and his skin was smooth and rosy, no different from a young man in his twenties.
However, Qiao Mu didn't pay much attention to this matter. Even if his blood was stuck at 99% and couldn't reach 100%, he didn't have the energy to take care of the problem.
This time while practicing in a dream, his focus was on how to change the quality of his inner energy.
And he already has a direction.
"The inner strength of a martial artist is not rootless, it is born from strong qi and blood."
The 1020-year-old Qiao Mu raised his head from the pile of books and said to himself:
"And the 'Super Grade Inner Strength' is naturally not created out of nothing."
"The key lies in... the martial artist's 'god'."
When the word "god" was spoken, Qiao Mu's eyes suddenly widened, and a brilliant divine light shone.
In this attic filled with classics, the mountain-like collection of books was pulled by invisible forces, flying around the trees like butterflies.
A warrior's "god", after reaching the first level, is powerful enough to affect physical objects. He can control hidden weapons, stones and other things, make flying knives turn, or fly swords to kill people like immortal monks.
After reaching the super level in refining the gods, Qiao Mu's "Eye Sword Technique" has undergone even more miraculous changes, and can "turn the imaginary into reality".
Everywhere he looked, there was sword light.
The invisible and qualityless gaze, under the influence of "god", can be transformed into the actual sword light, which is mysterious.
So, what about internal energy?
After refining the super-grade god, Wu Fu's "god" has become powerful enough to influence external objects and "turn the void into reality".
So, can the invisible and qualityless inner energy be turned into reality?
Qiao Mu reached out and took down the writing brush floating in the air, and wrote three words on the spread white paper.
"The Secret of Divine Transformation"
This method seeks the integration of inner energy and spirit.
"Qualitative transformation of internal energy, in today's martial arts world, is only a field that can only be achieved by a very small number of top martial artists. There are definitely not many people who can reach this point."
"If the method of qualitative transformation of internal energy is popularized, then it is impossible that Taizu Yan in the palace would not know about it, and his internal energy obviously has not made a breakthrough."
I feel a little helpless when I think of this tree.
There are so few super-grade warriors that there is no sufficiently perfect way to achieve super-grade martial arts.
And the "Divine Transformation Technique" in Qiao Mu's hands...
With one stroke of his pen, he wrote down the words "cover" and then stared at the blank paper.
Although the direction has been guessed, it still takes time to figure out the specific method of combining "spirit" with inner strength.
"Then use your life and go explore."
Qiao Mu closed his eyes and crossed his legs to do his exercises.
About half an hour later, the internal energy in his body burst out uncontrollably, blood bleeded from the corners of his mouth, and he suffered internal injuries.
"The injury is not serious, but the Dantian Qi sea is disordered and the Dantian is damaged. If a normal martial artist suffers such an injury, he will have to recover for at least ten years, but it is not a big problem for me."
Qiao Mu stretched out his finger and stabbed his temple, blood gushed out.
The next second, he was fully resurrected in his dream and all his injuries were restored.
Different from when the "Human Dao Jing" was deduced, the risk of qualitative change of internal energy is slightly lower. It will not lead to immediate death, but only internal injuries that will take ten years to recover.
But the tree in the dream can be resurrected at any time without fear of injury, so he naturally chose the most radical method to deduce the "Divine Transformation Technique", which is to die and start over.
............
"Internal strength is like soldiers. Although there are many, they are like a pile of scattered sand."
"God is like a general."
"If the spirit and internal energy are combined, he should be able to command his soldiers like a good general and use his arms to control his fingers. Naturally, there is an essential difference from the internal energy that has not changed qualitatively."
"The martial artist's 'god' can sense the surrounding environment and ingest foreign objects from the air, affecting a distance far greater than ten meters."
"If God and internal energy are combined, it should be possible to break through the ten-meter attenuation law of internal energy."
Although the truth is this.
But it is a bit difficult to put it into practice.
Qiao Mu has so much internal strength that he ranks third in the strength list, second only to Taizu Yan and Xue Changhe, the head of the Xue family who has passed down his skills for generations.
Therefore, his "god" is equivalent to a general who has just taken office. He has to control thousands of troops and horses from the beginning, which is naturally extremely difficult, far greater than the breakthroughs of other super-grade warriors.
certainly.
If this can be accomplished, then all the internal energy he has accumulated so far will be converted into "super-grade internal energy", which will naturally be accumulated.
Qiao Mu wrote on "The Secret of Divine Transformation":
"The five hearts are directed toward the sky, the mind is guarding the Dantian, and the energy and spirit are in harmony..."
"My mind sank into the Dantian Qi sea, and I controlled my inner energy to separate a ray..."
Time flies, and after death one after another, the length of "The Secret of Divine Transformation" is also constantly expanding.
When time comes to the 350th year.
In the Qi sea of Qiao Mu's Dantian, the invisible inner energy that originally filled the Dantian suddenly collapsed and turned into a more condensed "super-grade inner energy".
This new "superior internal energy" has been combined with the spirit of Qiao Mu itself, so it is like a part of Qiao Mu's own body and can be manipulated like an arm or a finger.
Qiao Mu opened his eyes.
A ray of milky white super-grade internal energy emerged from the fingertips, and then condensed into the shape of a sword, a long knife, and a spear, constantly changing shapes.
"The ability to control internal energy has been greatly enhanced."
"As for the range..." Qiao Mu stretched out his finger, and the air-piercing finger flew a hundred meters away in an instant, piercing a mountaintop a hundred meters away, and a hole as thick as a finger appeared.
"Extremely condensed, the range is greatly increased. Although the attenuation of the volley's energy is present, it has been greatly reduced."
"And this so-called super inner strength..."
Qiao Mu thought, and Wu Qiankun's burly figure appeared in front of his eyes.
But Wu Qiankun jumped up and punched Qiao Mu's chest with both fists.
However, when the punch came out, it stopped in front of the chest. It was blocked by the pale white energy that penetrated the body, and could not move forward even an inch.
"From the tangible and insubstantial inner energy, it has transformed into some kind of tangible and qualitative qi energy, and it is essentially different from the inner energy. It can be called a tangible and qualitative thing, and can even block Wu Qiankun's blow. I can’t even touch my hair.”
Qiao Mu noticed that the super-grade internal energy he had cultivated through the "Shen Transformation Art" seemed to be slightly different from the "super-grade internal energy" of the Sword Exalt Immortal and the Martial Saint in his memory.
"Could it be that my training went wrong?" Qiao Mu thought of this and raised the corners of his mouth slightly:
"Laughing to death."
"Whoever is strong will practice correctly."
"It's because the training between the Sword Exiled Immortal and the Martial Saint has gone awry!"
