Chapter Forty-Six: The Three Years of Reading a Lot of Books
After seven days of sleeplessness, Ao Zhan finally practiced a wisp of purple qi, and it was not until this moment that he finally realized the magic of it.
Looking at the purple qi surrounding his body, Ao Zhan muttered to himself, "If you can cultivate thousands of strands and form a protective purple qi, it will be amazing." ”
As soon as the hand was raised, a wisp of purple qi the size of a little finger suddenly shot out, like a dawn light, easily penetrating the floor under his feet, splashing a little dirt chips.
"If you can give birth to thousands of wisps, I'm afraid that this magic trick will be ranked in the heavenly rank!" "The voice of the Elder Chuangong sounded, "I can't imagine that in just seven days, you will have achieved a small success, powerful, powerful!"
Ao Zhan also understood that purple qi was just a special gift from the Purple Mansion Divine Pill to condense the essence of heaven and earth, and he could cultivate up to three wisps, and if he wanted to protect himself with thousands of wisps of purple qi, it was basically tantamount to a fool's dream.
"The three books I've read before are all ways of refining qi, and I have this refining technique here, so let's see what the subtleties and shortcomings are. Elder Chuangong threw out a copy.
Ao Zhan stretched out his hand to take it, and there were four big characters written in between, "Mixed Yuan Nine Turns." ”
Referring to the words and pictures, Ao Zhan probably understood the essence of this exercise.
"This exercise also makes use of the magic of heaven and earth aura, and repeatedly tempers it into essence, forming the power of mixed elements, feeding the flesh and nourishing the muscles, bones and muscles, so as to achieve the effect of refining the body. Ao Zhan's eyes flickered, at first he underestimated the exercises of the Yellow Order, and even more underestimated the heroes of the world, but at this moment he felt that everyone who could create exercises was not simple, and had their own merits.
"Mixed Yuan Power requires years of hard cultivation, and it is even more difficult to reach the ninth turn. It's better to take a look at this book again - "Phantom Fire". Elder Chuangong nodded, and threw out another secret book.
Time passed imperceptibly, and Ao Zhan was like a hungry traveler lost in the desert, greedily absorbing the essence of various exercises.
Sometimes it would take him days to understand the meaning of a secret book, but sometimes he could appreciate its general charm after reading it once, and Elder Chuangong always threw a new secret book when he understood it, but these secret books were all Yellow Order without exception.
Ao Zhan sat scattered on the ground, with many bamboo rolls scattered around him, his slightly curly brown hair reaching his waist, and his clothes around him were a little dirty.
Elder Chuangong paced over and said loudly, "After reading the 'Drifting Ghost Steps' in your hand, you have read all the 1,864 Yellow Rank Exercises in this library. How about it, do you want to see the Xuanjie exercises next?"
Ao Zhan's eyes did not leave the bamboo scroll in his hand, but he responded without any waves, "The Yellow Rank and the Xuan Rank are just other people's Dao, I only take their essence, what is the difference between the two?"
Elder Chuangong stroked his beard and smiled, and said softly, "That's a good point! Your talent is really good, and one day, you will definitely be able to create your own Dao Fa." ”
As Elder Chuangong was speaking, Ao Zhan slowly put down the bamboo scroll in his hand and got up gently. Elder Chuangong only felt a breeze blowing on his face, and Ao Zhan seemed to have turned into several chaotic figures, each exuding the same breath of life, and it was difficult to distinguish the real from the fake.
"Wonderful, I didn't expect that it was only half a month's salary, and you have already found another way and taken a new step!" said Elder Chuangong without hesitation.
"It's over, it's just a little bit of my understanding, it's still early. Ao Zhan responded indifferently, without a trace of pride in his heart.
"How is it, do you still want to continue to see the Xuanjie exercises?" asked the Elder Chuangong with a smile.
Ao Zhan pondered for a moment and asked, "How long has it been?"
"It's been three years and nine days since you came in. Elder Chuangong touched his head and said indifferently.
Ao Zhan raised his eyebrows and muttered, "What, I didn't expect it to be more than three years!"
Elder Chuangong stopped unimpressed, and said with a smile, "One thousand eight hundred and sixty-four exercises, you have tried to cultivate each one and gained something, and three years is very, very fast!"
"I have to go out, for three years, I'm afraid that I'm already crazy outside!" Ao Zhan got up and twisted his body, making a series of crunching sounds of bones colliding.
"Okay, I'll send you out. There was a hint of reluctance in Elder Chuangong's eyes, for two years, only Ao Zhan accompanied him in the library, and the two had already established a relationship of being both teachers and friends.
Ao Zhan also noticed it, and showed a rare smile, "Old man, next time I will bring wine, you have to prepare the cheats of the Xuan Rank and the Ground Tier!"
"I can't do the exercises of the ground level!" said the Elder Chuan Gong embarrassedly, his face embarrassed.
"Haha, send me away!" Ao Zhan laughed, then stepped into the black hole torn by Elder Chuangong, and after a brief loss of consciousness, he returned to the huge Zhu Gate on the top floor of the Treasure Pavilion Pagoda.
"Blocked!" A pair of alien beasts, Bronze Locks and Charms, made a mechanical sound at the same time, sealing the gate.
As soon as she went downstairs, the female shopping guide Jing'er leaned in, "My lord, you have finally come out! In the past three years, your servants have come to look for you many times, and I wasted the boss's labor fee to believe that you are cultivating in the library building." ”
"Hey, thank you. Ao Zhan smiled slightly, "If it's okay, I'll go first!"
"My lord, the pavilion master asked me to send you a message, saying that if you leave the customs before the thirtieth of this month, you will go to Zhuju, she has something important to tell you!" Jing'er hurriedly said.
"What day is today?" asked Ao Zhan.
Jing'er smiled, "Today is twenty-three. ”
Ao Zhan also smiled, thanked him again, and walked towards the pavilion master's bamboo residence water pavilion. In the water pavilion surrounded by fairy mist, a song "Autumn Water" surrounds, which is endless. It was the third time he had heard it, and this time, he had a different feeling.
Naturally, the words of Elder Chuangong to himself three years ago naturally came to mind - 'In the past, the pavilion master picked up the "Pure Heart Secret Collection", guided by his own body understanding, lasted for a season, ingeniously blended the pure qi with the sound of the guzheng, and created his own unpredictable song "Autumn Water", which is really amazing!"
The entire bamboo forest was only filled with the sound of the piano and Ao Zhan's own heartbeat, and he could faintly feel that an invisible dojo shrouded this water pavilion, if the player was willing, every grass and tree in this water pavilion could be turned into a blade, killing people invisibly!
He only now understands a little, why Elder Chuangong said that "Autumn Water" is unpredictable...... The Pavilion Master has already practiced the "Pure Heart Secret Collection" out of his own way.
"If it were me, what kind of step should I take?" Ao Zhan asked himself in his heart.
At the end of the song, the ethereal voice of the pavilion master came out, "You are finally out of the customs, if you are one day late, you will miss even the last chance." ”
Ao Zhan was stunned when he heard this, and asked inexplicably, "What last chance?"
"Three years ago, the Judge City held a centennial college expansion conference, and young talents from the four cities of Black Iron City, Red Iron City, Xuan Iron City, and Yan Iron City all poured into the Judge City, where they showed their skills and devoted themselves to the major colleges. The Pavilion Master explained.
"I'm not interested. Ao Zhan raised his eyebrows, "Besides, I missed it, why did you mention it?"
"Don't underestimate the major academies of the Judge Domain. Any of them have a profound background and are capable of producing many people, and there are young talents from the eighteen domains of the Netherworld Continent, which can be described as a place where dragons and tigers fight. Pavilion Master Masase explained.
Sure enough, as soon as Ao Zhan heard that there were young talents from the eighteen regions, his eyes burst into flames, and he secretly looked forward to it in his heart.
"Since you have missed the major academies of the Judge Domain, it is impossible for you to enter it again. However, the Black Armor Guard of the Judge Domain is recruiting, and if you can arrive in Judge City before the 30th of this month to register, you will have the opportunity to join the Black Armor Guard. The Pavilion Master said.
"You let me be a soldier?" Ao Zhan glanced at the pavilion master.
"In fact, compared to the major academies, the experience of the Black Armor Guard is more conducive to cultivation, and the current Black Iron City City Lord, the Iron Family Master, and the Hu Family Master were all members of the Black Armor Guard, and they have experienced the baptism of blood and hatred. "The pavilion master is guided step by step.
"It's okay!" Ao Zhan was taken aback, thought about it and nodded in agreement.
"I have a recommendation order from the Treasure Pavilion here, which is equivalent to eight places, you can go directly to the Black Armor Guard Camp and ignore the Black Iron City City Lord's Mansion. So, go now. The Pavilion Master said, throwing out an emerald token and a scroll of maps.
Ao Zhan didn't say anything more and returned to his house.
When Ao Jue and the others saw Ao Zhan for the first time, they looked like they had seen a ghost, and then they surrounded them in surprise, shushing the cold and asking the warmth.
Ao Zhan interrupted them and told them to quickly pack their things and go to the Judge City together.
Holding the map of the judge's domain given by the pavilion master, with the earth beast in his crotch, the group rushed to the judge's domain in the stars and the moon. The night is as cool as water, the cold wind is like a knife, and the faint fluorescence is sprinkled on the body, like a silent meteor in the night, adding a touch of agility.
Seven days and seven nights of sleepless travel.
At noon on the thirtieth, Ao Zhan and his party arrived at the Judge City. If the scale of Black Iron City is like a sleeping lion, then Judge City is simply a staring dragon, and the grade is not half a star.
Each person paid five high-grade Nether Stones, and the group entered the city with the flow of people shoulder to shoulder.
The word 'prosperous' is the first word that Ao Zhan thought of and can best explain the Judge City, with millions of people, all kinds of shops side by side, a dazzling array of rare treasures, elixir weapons, war slaves and maidservants, everything is like a mirage, but it really exists in front of you.
"Master, this place is so prosperous!" Ao Xi shouted excitedly.
Three years have passed, although she and Ao Hu have suppressed their cultivation, they have still advanced to the Netherworld, Ao Jue has also reached the peak of the Netherworld, Miao Feng and Xing Yan have not made much progress, and they are still in the middle stage of the Netherworld.
Only Ao Zhan, today's cultivation is still stagnant, and he is still in the late stage of the void.
"Find the Black Guard's barracks first, and then come back and have a good look. Ao Zhan waved his hand and went first.
I asked many people along the way, and finally came to the black armor guard camp in the south of the city.
The neat military tents and the neat howling of the killing spirit are the only secluded places suitable for stationing. In front of the camp, a simple wooden table was written with a stone sign, engraved with the word 'recruitment', a black-armored guard was looking around boredly, and suddenly saw the three of Ao Zhan, and immediately came to the spirit.
"Let's sign up. Ao Zhan smiled slightly, a rare friendship with a stranger.
"You're here to participate in the supplement, where is your clan, and is there a handwritten letter from the City Lord's Mansion?" asked the Black Armor Guard with his face on his hand.
"There is no handwritten letter, we are recommended by the Treasure Pavilion, oh, please see. Ao Zhan shook his head and handed over the jade token.
"Recommended by the Treasure Pavilion?" the black armor guard's face changed, and then he nodded, "In that case, you will attack this combat power crystal in turn, remember to use all your strength, this is to test your combat effectiveness and decide to divide the camp!" he said and took out a crystal clear stone and placed it on the table.
Ao Zhan looked at the stone on the table, turned his head and said, "Ao Hu, you come first!"
"Yes!" Ao Hu replied and approached with his hands.
After a slight adjustment, the muscles around his body were raised, and the power of the explosion was immediately poured into his right fist.
With a 'boom', the explosive punch struck the stone with a loud bang, and a wave of air swept away.
The wooden table servant shattered, and the black armor guard got up indifferently, looked at the four red characters of 'Netherworld Beginning' that appeared on the crystal, nodded and said, "Go and wait." ”
Ao Hu stepped aside, Ao Xi leaned over, and with all his strength, he slammed his fist on the crystal. Similarly, a red font emerges, 'Beginning of the Netherworld'.
Then Miao Feng and Xing Yan punched one after another, and they both got the words 'in the Netherworld'.
Ao Jue took a deep breath, a sticky blood rose around his body, his slender body suddenly trembled, and in the next second, a punch popped out quickly, and it hit the crystal with a 'poof'.
The beginning of the Netherworld!
"Hey, overstep, I don't think your breath is at all in the Netherworld, it's rare!" the black armor guard's eyes lit up and he exclaimed.
"It's my turn!" Ao Zhan smiled.
Facing this crystal stone, in an instant, there were many bombardment methods in his heart, and he actually had a feeling that it was difficult to choose.
Ao Zhan immediately understood the problem, in the past three years, he had read 1,864 cheats, and the magic in his mind was too complicated, and his thinking was inevitably a little hesitant, if he couldn't get out of his own Dao method, it would be a serious hidden danger!
Let's ask, at a certain moment in the battle of life and death, if you hesitate at all, what will be the end?
He shook his head, put aside his chaotic thoughts for the time being, and blasted out with a punch full of spiritual power and physical explosive power. Silently, the crystal stone suddenly showed the four big characters of 'the beginning of the netherworld'.
"Stepping over again...... My goodness, I don't think your breath is as good as the kid before, is it more than two orders?" The black-armored guard's eyes widened and he swallowed with difficulty.
"Have we been admitted?" Ao Zhan asked rhetorically, ignoring it.
"Ah, of course, you come with me!" the black guard was much better, and immediately straightened his waist and led the way.
The Black Armor Guard first took Ao Hu, Ao Xi, Miao Feng, and Xing Yan to a camp, and then took him and Ao Jue to another camp alone.
"There is no doubt that your talents far surpass those four people, and the camps assigned to you are naturally different. You know, it's not easy to leapfrog the 'Battle Power Crystal'!" said the black armor guard and turned to look at Ao Zhan, as if he wanted to see something.
"What camp are we going to?" asked Ao Zhan.
"A tent full of monsters!" the black armor guard's face sank, as if he was very jealous.
"Oh?" Ao Zhan was interested when he heard this, and glanced at Ao Jue.
