1. Devour the starry sky
Yangzhou City, Mingyue Community.
In the martial arts training hall, Lu Xiao waved his battle knife, repeating the moves in the basic sword technique over and over again.
Horizontal cutting, vertical splitting, upward picking, oblique cutting...... He practiced it over and over again, not bored at all.
Although it was only the most basic moves, he practiced it very seriously, and completed every move and every time meticulously.
If someone is present at this time, you will find that his movements are very standard, as if measured with a ruler, and the shooting can be directly used as a teaching video.
In fact, from the beginning of learning martial arts to the present, Lu Xiao has practiced like this countless times.
By now, every move has been carved into his bones, forming physical memory and conditioned reflexes.
He doesn't even have to think, he can do all the actions automatically with his eyes closed, and he does it perfectly.
But even so, every time he practiced, he would still concentrate his whole energy and experience it with his heart.
From holding the knife, mobilizing the body, exerting force, swinging, retracting the knife, adjusting the center of gravity, to the changes in his body, the trajectory of the knife, and the air resistance in the whole process...... He will taste, grasp, calculate, and adjust them all.
Gradually, Lu Xiao was immersed in such a state, and his body, knife, and environment seemed to have become one.
I don't know how long it has been-
"Whew~"
He suddenly exhaled and withdrew his knife and stopped practicing.
There is no need to look at the time, Lu Xiao also knows that it is 9:00 in the morning, no more than no minute, no less, just one hour of practice.
This wonderful state of the integration of people, knives, and the environment, this is not the first time he has entered, and now he can switch independently, enter or break away.
However, although he made rapid progress in this state, maintaining it for a long time was too heavy for his body and energy, so he had to strictly control the time, otherwise it would be easy to cause a deficit.
After practicing the knife, he continued to practice his body.
After the same hour, Lu Xiao stopped and walked to the other end of the martial arts training hall.
The martial arts training hall in Lu Xiao's house is very large, with a total of 120 square meters, in addition to the wooden people and weapon racks for martial arts training, he also specially vacated a corner to place the bookshelf.
There was a futon on the ground next to the bookshelf, Lu Xiao walked over, sat cross-legged on it, took a book and opened it, and continued to look from the bookmark position.
This is a habit he has always cultivated, generally every two hours of practicing the sword and body techniques, he will stop and rest for half an hour to read, which can be regarded as a combination of work and rest.
There are not many books on the shelves, scattered twenty or thirty books, but almost all of them are large volumes, such as the book "Annotations on the General History of Chinese Philosophy", which contains all the philosophical works of China since ancient times, as well as the annotations and interpretations of different people.
This is obviously not a façade, because it can be seen that although the owners of the books are very fond of books, because they are often flipped, these books are still very different from new books in appearance.
Except for one copy of "Global Change from the Great Nirvana", which is placed at the top of the bookshelf alone, it looks like there are still seven or eight percent new.
This was bought online by Lu Xiao when he first came to this world, mainly to understand how this world has changed since the Great Nirvana.
This is a very important turning point, that is, from the beginning of the Great Nirvana, the history of this world has sailed in a completely different direction from his previous life.
......
At the beginning of the twenty-first century, the dreaded RR virus influenza broke out globally, infecting all lives worldwide and killing 2 billion people.
Fortunately, those who survived in the end produced antibodies in their bodies, and their physique was greatly enhanced. Almost everyone's strength, speed, cell activity, and skin toughness have more than doubled! Even an ordinary person can easily break the past world records in weightlifting and 100-meter running.
However, it's not just humans who have become stronger, but countless birds and beasts!
In terms of numbers, they are much more than humans, and in terms of physical fitness, they are mostly more than humans, so correspondingly, after this disaster, their physique has improved much more than humans, and some monsters have even evolved wisdom that is no less than humans!
Eventually, led by high-level monsters, a war broke out between monsters and humans!
But in the war, it turned out that the role of thermal weapons was very limited. Bullets can't even break through the fur scale armor on the monster's body, and the more powerful missile can be avoided by the monster with fast nerve reaction and speed, even if it is the ultimate weapon, the nuclear bomb, it only makes the monster at the center of the explosion suffer heavy casualties, but the monster in the larger radiation range does not die, on the contrary, the nuclear radiation makes the monster mutate, and a more terrifying existence is born from it!
Fortunately, there are also strong people in humans, and scientists have also invented the crowe alloy that can break through the scale armor of monsters, and it was not until the successful development of human ultra-high frequency laser cannons that the large-scale war between humans and monsters is over.
This is the most famous period of Great Nirvana in the history of this world!
......
This is - the world that devours the starry sky!
This was judged by Lu Xiao from the memories he received after he crossed over.
Whether it's "RR Virus", "Great Nirvana Period", "Monster", or "Hong", "Thor", "Extreme Martial Arts Gym", and "Thunderbolt Martial Arts Gym", they are all settings in the Starry Sky.
In Lu Xiao's impression, the worldview (background setting) of devouring the starry sky is very grand, and only a small part of the original book is described, and the upper limit of the power system of this world is also very high, and the ending only writes that Luo Feng transcends reincarnation and goes to the origin continent, and only mentions the higher realm slightly, without further description.
In such a world, the possibilities are endless!
While Lu Xiao was deeply excited, he also felt a huge sense of pressure and urgency.
Because it's already May 2056, the plot of devouring the starry sky almost began at this time.
And the rhythm of this novel is actually very fast, Lu Xiao remembers that just after the plot began, in just two or three years, Luo Feng rose like a comet.
This is followed by the birth of the Golden Horn Behemoth, the arrival of the cosmic adventurer and other important plots, which are interlocking, and if any of them goes wrong, it will be a catastrophe for the earth.
And about ten years later, it will be the time for the Virtual Universe Company to hold the Universe Peak Genius Battle, which is also a key point to change his fate, and he doesn't want to miss it.
In short, he must seize every time to improve his strength.
......
Half an hour later, Lu Xiao put down the book in his hand and went to the bathroom in the cubicle.
This compartment is specially opened for him to clean after practicing martial arts, in addition to the shower head, there is also a large double bathtub.
Lu Xiao first filled the bathtub with water, and then took out an iron can from the cabinet next to him.
There was a green ointment in the tin can, Lu Xiao dug out a piece from it and soaked it in the water, and soon the water in the bathtub was dyed a beautiful blue and blue color.
This is a medicine made from various precious herbs and monster materials, called "jasper paste".
Soaking the body in water made of jasper paste can relieve the fatigue caused by long-term martial arts practice, and can also repair certain damage to the muscles, bones, skin and flesh, and even slightly improve physical fitness.
It is said that long-term use also has a certain effect on the improvement of skin toughness, but I don't know how long this long time will be.
Of course, this is only effective for people below the martial artist, and the effect is not very magical, but even so, this jar costs 100,000 Huaxia coins, and it is generally lost after soaking it more than ten times, and the cost performance is not high, and it is not affordable for ordinary families at all.
Like Luo Feng, he definitely can't afford it, but for him, it doesn't matter if he can afford it or not, a few more times of "headache" is more effective than any medicine.
When taking a bath, Lu Xiao habitually sank his consciousness into his sea of consciousness.
In his sea of consciousness, there is a "starry sky", which he has had since he crossed it.
The starry sky is made up of countless points of light, most of which are very dim, except for two spots, one large and one small, that are illuminated.
The big one is very dazzling, and all the points of light in the entire starry sky are swept over at a glance, and only a few can compare with it in size.
When Lu Xiao's consciousness touched it, he felt a wonderful connection—his connection to the world, and this world was the world that devoured the starry sky where he was now.
As for the small point of light, its "small" is only equivalent to a large point of light devouring the starry sky, in fact, in the entire sea of light, its size is medium.
However, when Lu Xiao put his consciousness on it, he didn't feel the connection of devouring the light point of the starry sky, but only a feeling of solidification and stagnation, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break through this obstacle and establish a connection with this point of light.
Lu Xiao was not surprised by the failure of this attempt.
In fact, almost every day since he crossed over, he has tried to make contact with this point of light almost every day when he is free, but without exception he has failed.
Today was just a routine attempt, he was ready to fail, and it would be strange if he succeeded.
Lu Xiao's guess about this is that there should be some preconditions that need to be met before they can establish contact with it.
And judging from the fact that the big point of light represents the devouring starry sky, the small point of light should also represent a world, and even in his guess, the starry sky in his mind should be the epitome of the world sea, and the points of light in it represent different worlds.
And the size of the light point may be related to the level of the world to which it belongs? Lu Xiao is not sure.
However, judging from the current situation, only the point of light belonging to the Devouring Starry Sky, and this smaller point of light, can or be easier for him to enter, as for the other points of light, they may never be opened, and more conditions may be required to activate.
And the result of successfully establishing a connection with the point of light should be - to travel into this world?
In this regard, Lu Xiao is actually quite looking forward to it.
Although the world level of the small light spot may not be as high as the Devouring Starry Sky, before opening the universe chapter, the earth was at most a high-martial world, or a little stronger than the high-martial world, but it was also limited.
And the small light spot is in the entire sea of light, the size is also medium, and the world level should not be low, at least in the Devouring Starry Sky and Earth chapter, it should be enough, and it is stronger than his own hard work.
After thinking about it, half an hour passed, and at this time, the water in the bathtub had returned to transparency, and it seemed that the medicinal properties had almost been absorbed.
Lu Xiao got up from the bathtub, cleaned up and dressed, looked up at the time, and as he expected, the pointer was just pointing to the position of 11:00.
At this time, lunch should be good.
