"Smack!"

In the Zhang family's mansion in Qingyun City, a delicate teacup was smashed and shattered, and the Zhang family's advocate Shaoxiong's face was gloomy and terrifying. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Chen Hu, they failed? Isn't he a Qi Sea Realm martial artist? and he can't kill a small body refining sevenfold?" Zhang Shaoxiong asked angrily at the people below.

"The head of the family, Chen Hu is not just defeated, but dead, his Lingfeng gun was sold, and his body was found in Baqi Mountain. A servant who looked like a butler said respectfully.

"Rubbish!" Zhang Shaoxiong snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "Can this matter leak the news?"

"There is no movement on the Wudian side, so there should be no problem. The butler said.

At the same time, a yellow-maned horse galloped into Qingyun City.

After returning to the city, Luo Xiu changed into a suit and came to the Martial Palace, preparing to go to the Library Pavilion to choose the third-grade martial arts.

According to the rules of the Martial Palace, the three-grade martial arts can choose one in the sevenfold refining body, the eightfold, and the ninth, and they also have the opportunity to choose one.

Walking in the martial hall, many students who knew Luo Xiu could feel that there were some obvious changes in him.

"This Luo Xiu's strength seems to be stronger, he walked past me, and I can even feel a sense of oppression. ”

"Could it be that he has already reached the eightfold body refining body? It is said that the eightfold martial artist of the body refining body condenses qi and blood, and only then will the momentum of oppression appear. ”

"It's impossible, isn't it? a month ago, it was still the seventh level of body refining, how could it be possible to reach the eighth level of body refining so quickly. ”

Many people have talked about it, since the end of the last annual assessment, Luo Xiu went to Baqi Mountain to practice, and a month has passed.

In fact, it was not just because of the breakthrough in cultivation that Luo Xiu's body had changed, and no one knew better than him about his transformation over the past few days.

Since fusing the Orb of Life and Death, his physique and bloodline have been affected by the power of life and death, and they have begun to enter a slow change.

Coupled with the recent rapid improvement in strength, the tempering and transformation of his mood and mentality by the fight between life and death, his whole temperament has undergone earth-shaking changes.

On the way to the Library Pavilion, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Luo Xiu.

This is an old man with a white beard, dressed in a white shirt, smiling, and carrying his hands behind his back, like an ordinary old man, without the slightest fluctuation of breath.

But in Luo Xiu's eyes, the life veins of this white-shirted old man were clearly visible, and there was a majestic power surging in the meridians and acupoints, far more powerful than those Qi Sea Realm martial artists that Luo Xiu had seen.

Innate realm!

Luo Xiu could completely conclude that the white-shirted old man in front of him was a martial artist-level existence in the Innate Realm!

Not only that, but this old man is also very familiar, it is the old man who was assessed for him in the Hunters' Guild at the beginning.

Obviously, this old man not only served in the Hunters' Guild, but was also an elder of the Qingyun Martial Palace.

"Student Luo Xiu, meet the elders. ”

There were five elders in the Martial Palace, and Luo Xiu had only seen the elders who were in charge of the assessment at the beginning, the elders who guarded the library pavilion, but he had never seen the other three elders.

"Luo Xiu, you come with me. Zhuang Nantian nodded and said with a smile.

As soon as the words fell, Zhuang Nantian turned around and walked away, Luo Xiu had doubts, so he followed, and he didn't know what this martial hall elder was looking for.

Following the white-shirted old man, Luo Xiu came to the attic of a courtyard deep in the Martial Palace.

"Sit. Zhuang Nantian said with a smile.

Luo Xiu didn't shirk either, and sat opposite the old man.

"I'm an Elder of the Martial Palace, Zhuang Nantian, we've met before. Zhuang Nantian spoke first, "You heard that in the Library Pavilion, the three-grade internal power you selected is pure yang gong?"

Every martial arts student who chooses martial arts will be registered, and the other party knows the exercises he has chosen, so Luo Xiu is not surprised.

"Yes, Elder. Luo Xiu replied.

Zhuang Nantian's expression was slightly moved, and he said: "I see that your cultivation has reached the eighth level of body refining, and you have broken through again in just one month, this is not just something that can be done with good talent and qualifications, it seems that you have already practiced pure yang gong?"

Seeing Luo Xiu nodding again in confirmation, Zhuang Nantian burst out laughing.

"Okay, good, good! Being able to practice pure yang gong in such a short period of time, among all the students in the entire martial arts hall, no one can compare to your martial arts talent, even if you look at the entire Yunlong County, your talent can also rank in the top ten!"

Zhuang Nantian looked very happy, looked at Luo Xiu, and said, "There are still two months left to be the martial arts competition ceremony of our Qingyun City Martial Palace, can you be confident?"

Luo Xiu naturally knew about the martial arts competition, and the Qingyun City Martial Hall would be held every year, mainly for the elites in the advanced class who refined the eightfold and ninefold bodies, and conducted a ranking ranking.

The higher the ranking, the better the treatment and rewards will be.

"The student has just been promoted to the intermediate class, and his cultivation is also a beginner in the eightfold refining body, so I'm afraid that he can't compare to those senior brothers in the advanced class. Luo Xiu said modestly.

Zhuang Nantian smiled, "You don't have to be arrogant, with your talent, you can get the attention and cultivation of the Martial Palace, but if you want to get better martial arts and more cultivation resources, you need to rely on your own strength to fight for it!"

......

Through a conversation with Martial Hall Elder Zhuang Nantian, Luo Xiu's mood was much more uplifted.

As Elder Zhuang said, better cultivation conditions require strength to strive for, and every year's martial arts competition ceremony is an opportunity to fight for it.

As for those students who didn't even have the qualifications to participate in the martial arts competition, it was impossible for the martial arts hall to give them any resources.

This is the law of survival of the fittest!

Taking a deep breath, Luo Xiu is very confident in himself, with his own strength, it is not difficult to get a good ranking in the martial arts competition, and even as long as he is willing, it is not a problem to win the first place.

Leaving the attic, Luo Xiu went straight to the second floor of the library pavilion and chose a swordsmanship martial art that he had been thinking about for a long time, Ben Thunder Swordsmanship!

This swordsmanship martial art focuses on speed, as the so-called martial arts in the world is only fast and unbreakable, when the sword is released, it is as fast as thunder, like a thunderbolt, so that the opponent is unable to guard against it, and does not give the opponent any chance to react.

There were 1,300 lower-grade vitality stones in the storage bracers, and after choosing the swordsmanship, Luo Xiu first went to the weapon shop.

When fighting with Chen Hu, the Qingfeng Sword shattered, because ordinary weapons could not resist the power of the soldiers at all.

In the weapon shop, Luo Xiu took a look around, a low-grade soldier with a human rank, because of the different materials and forging techniques, the power will be different, so the price ranges from three hundred to eight hundred low-grade Yuan Qi stones.

And among the warriors, the price of weapons in the sword category is on the high side, because the majority of warriors use swords.

A long sword with a black body and forged with tungsten iron attracted Luo Xiu's attention.

This sword does not have too many gorgeous and delicate shapes, the body and hilt are black, and it has a simple and primitive taste.

Luo Xiu stretched out his hand and picked up the sword, the sword body was slightly heavy, much heavier than an ordinary long sword, and the hilt was engraved with a word, 'dark'.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Xiu ran the internal qi infusion blessing, and waved his hand a few times, feeling quite comfortable.

"Shopkeeper, how do you sell this sword?" Luo Xiu asked casually.

"The guest officer is really good eyesight, this sword was obtained by other hunters from ancient ruins, it has been identified by the foundry, and the material is special, even if it is slashed by a high-grade soldier of the human rank, it cannot be damaged in the slightest. The shopkeeper said with a smile.

"Oh?" Luo Xiu didn't know if the shopkeeper was exaggerating, the level of the soldiers was strictly divided, and the average low-level soldier could not resist the slashing of the high-level soldier, even if it would not break, it would be damaged.

"However, the power of this sword is a little worse, among the low-grade soldiers of the human rank, it is relatively ordinary, if the guest officer wants it, he only needs eight hundred low-grade vitality stones. The shopkeeper continued.

"Eight hundred?" Luo Xiu's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "How can a low-grade battle sword with ordinary power be so expensive? I see that some war swords with power comparable to those of the middle grade of the human rank are only about eight hundred. ”

Eight hundred lower grade Yuan Qi stones is not a small number, and the net worth of many Qi Sea Realm martial artists is only more than a thousand lower grade Yuan stones.

"Although the power is average, the material of this sword is special and can withstand the slashing of high-grade soldiers on the human level, so the price is naturally relatively expensive. The shopkeeper said with a smile.

In fact, this sword has been placed here for several years, and it was originally purchased with three hundred low-grade Yuan Qi stones, and it was also because of its special material.

However, many foundries simply can't identify what kind of material they are, and they can't smelt it if they want to re-forge it, so it has been placed here for several years, and no one cares about it, after all, for warriors, the power of soldiers is relatively more important.

However, the forger behind the weapon shop thought that the sword might have an extraordinary origin, so he marked a price of six hundred.

The reason why it was sold for eight hundred, the shopkeeper of this weapon shop also saw that Luo Xiu was young, maybe if he really bought it back, wouldn't he be able to earn an extra two hundred Yuan Qi Stones?

"It's too expensive, I don't want it. Luo Xiu said as he put the sword back in its place.

"This guest officer, the price is still negotiable. The shopkeeper's eyelids jumped and he hurriedly said.

"How about 700 yuan? The shopkeeper gritted his teeth, as if he had made a difficult decision.

Although Luo Xiu is young, he is not ignorant of the world, and when he looks like the shopkeeper, he knows that the other party wants to pit himself.

"I don't think the shopkeeper seems to be sincere at all, and there are many weapons shops on this street, so I'll take a look at another one. Luo Xiu snorted coldly, and was about to leave.

When the shopkeeper saw this posture, he immediately panicked, if this guest really left, it would be a little bit of a commission gone.

"Six hundred! Guest officer, this time is really the lowest price, if you are not satisfied, I can't help it. ”

The price of six hundred, although it is slightly more expensive than an ordinary low-grade battle sword, but the material is special enough to withstand the slashing of high-level soldiers, and this price is not outrageous.

Luo Xiu really felt that this sword was a little special, and he groaned slightly, so he took out the Yuan Qi Stone and bought it.

Seeing Luo Xiu buy it, a smile appeared on the shopkeeper's face again.

"The whole body is black, and the hilt of the sword can have the word 'dark', so let's call you the Shadow Sword!" Luo Xiu was quite satisfied, returned the sword to the sheath, and carried it behind him.

This is the first soldier in his life, and he is quite excited.

Leaving the weapon shop, Luo Xiu went to the pill shop again, intending to buy some pills to help increase his cultivation speed.

The pills sold in Qingyun City are all first-grade and second-grade, and the Qi Nourishing Pill is an ordinary first-grade pill, which is most suitable for martial artists in the body refining realm, which can speed up the speed of swallowing vitality and condensing internal qi.

In addition, there are other pills for each stage, such as Refining Tendon Pill, Quenching Bone Pill, and Qi and Blood Pill.

Luo Xiu came over this time to buy the Qi and Blood Pill, this kind of one-grade pill, which is most suitable for martial disciples who refine the body and condense the qi and blood.

Just as Luo Xiu was selecting the pill, a fragrant wind sniffed into the tip of his nose, and a voice sounded, "Shopkeeper, can there be an ice spirit pill?"

Luo Xiu followed the prestige, and saw a woman in a white plain skirt standing beside her, with exquisite undulating and wonderful curves, looming.

"Teacher Lu?" Luo Xiu recognized at a glance that the woman with a faint fragrance wafting from her body was the teacher in the Martial Palace, Lu Mengyao.
