The stop cloud step is taken from the meaning of the flowing cloud transformation invisible, the so-called water impermanence, the cloud impermanence, the pace is as you like, changing in all directions, and the enemy is dazzled and difficult to figure out.

It only took Zhang Yan a few hours to write down the steps required to stop the cloud step one by one, and the practice was skillful, and the unfolding was already a good look, a little more free and easy than when he only used brute force to dodge before, and it was exquisite. Zhang Yan's figure was everywhere on the mountain peak, jumping, pounced, retreated, or advanced, the speed became faster and faster, and for a while there seemed to be a phantom in the air.

Suddenly, Zhang Yan frowned and stopped, the feeling that something was wrong in his heart became stronger and stronger, and he always felt that something was wrong, which led to an almost negligible pause in his pace. For a while, Zhang Yan didn't find the problem, he was not a person who drilled the horns of the bull, and he didn't find the problem, so he gave up his cultivation and stopped the cloud step and came to a valley.

The valley is the place where the disciples of the Refining City are trained to experience the battle, and the entire valley is composed of a large magic circle, the Illusion Shadow Array, where the disciples of the Refining City can choose different enemies and the number of enemies, and the disciples who enter it are all the existence of the consciousness body, the body will not be harmed by the real one, the battle of consciousness and the damage suffered are 100% real, and the feeling of death is also the same.

Zhang Yan handed over the contribution of the sect that he had used for a long time, walked into the valley, chose one of the stone pillars at random, exerted force with his legs, jumped lightly, and then sat cross-legged on the stone pillar, using his spiritual power to trigger the formation on the stone pillar. The picture flashed, Zhang Yan came to a void full of light balls, stretched out his hand and clicked on one of the light balls, and a voice suddenly appeared in his ear, "This battle space has been used, please choose another battle space that has not been used." ”

After trying several times, Zhang Yan finally found a free battle space, and after entering the battle space, a light curtain appeared in front of him, and the dense words on it described the rules and operation methods of the battle space. Zhang Yan chose an attribute according to what was said above the light curtain, a light and shadow similar to Zhao Wenze's combat skills and combat power, and then a little light began to appear in the space, and finally condensed into a light and shadow wearing armor.

Light and shadow didn't speak, and directly condensed the dream beast soul technique-Flame Bow in his hand, and shot at Zhang Yan one after another with flame arrows without any pause in between, instantly sealing Zhang Yan's dodge direction. Zhang Yan didn't expect the attack to come so quickly, and almost didn't react before ushering in his first death in the battle space.

Zhang Yan grabbed his heart with his right hand outside the formation, his mouth was panting violently, and the beads of sweat the size of soybeans on his head dripped down his cheeks and fell onto the stone pillar. Zhang Yan now had only one image in his mind, an arrow of flame shot into his chest fiercely, and the feeling of death filled his entire body, and to be honest, he didn't want to try it a second time.

Entering the battle space again, Zhang Yan saw the condensation of light and shadow, and without saying a word, he condensed the shield god mountain in front of him, and stepped on the newly learned cloud stop step, and the whole person rushed to the light and shadow towards a curved lightning, and his hands suddenly pressed down, and in the process of pressing down, a battle axe made of the dangerous god mountain appeared between his hands out of thin air, and with a "bang", the battle axe slashed fiercely on the flame armor of light and shadow, and the shattered flames ............

Half a day soon arrived, at the exit of the valley, Zhang Yan walked out with a tired look, in this half a day, Zhang Yan fought a total of eighteen times, none of them came out alive, that is to say, he just experienced eighteen deaths, although it is not a real death, but no one will like to force himself to face death. In the battle space, every time Zhang Yan died, it was a progress, and every time he died, he fought with light and shadow for a longer time, but it was also a very heavy burden on his spirit, and after the eighteenth death, his spirit was on the verge of collapse, so he had to withdraw from the illusion array.

Then Zhang Yan dragged his tired body and did not choose to rest, but chose to go to the Gathering Energy Tower to practice the Mixed Yuan Heaven Killing Decision, because after the duel, he found that cultivating in a tired state would get twice the result with half the effort.

There are nine floors in the Gathering Tower, and each layer has a large number of Gathering Arrays, and the disciples of Refining Weapon City can spend sect contributions to cultivate in it. The energy concentration of each layer is very different, from the first layer to the ninth layer increases in turn, and the contribution of the sect required for each layer is the same as increasing, and the higher the energy concentration of the tower layer, the more violent the energy, and the disciples who are not strong enough to enter it rashly, the meridians will be broken, and the meridians of the whole body will be broken.

When Zhang Yan entered the first layer, he found that most of the people sitting on the first floor were outer disciples, and there were a few people he knew, but he didn't stay long before going straight to the second layer.

"Wasn't that Zhang Yan just now, did he go directly to the second layer. ”

"Isn't it a place where the second floor can only be spent by inner disciples?"

"Yes, I heard that there was an outer disciple who didn't know the height of the sky, and he went to the second layer without listening to anyone's advice, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he was carried down, and finally the meridians of his whole body were broken, and he became a waste. ”

"Who knows, after all, people are called crazy demons, and that duel was really tragic! Isn't it, Zhao Wenhao!" A disciple said to Zhao Wenhao, who had an unkind face next to him, Zhao Wenhao just wanted to open his mouth to refute, but when he thought of his brother's warning that day, he just "snorted" and did not speak.

Zhang Yan, who had reached the second floor, looked at the strange and few disciples sitting on the ground, and found a place to sit cross-legged by himself, running the Mixed Yuan Heaven Killing Decision to absorb the energy in the tower, and found that his meridians had not yet reached the limit, after all, after the I Ching Washing of the Mixed Yuan Heaven Killing Decision and the forging of two ancient body exercises, his meridians had reached more than five times the limit of ordinary people's meridians. So he got up and walked to the entrance to the third floor, and stepped on the upward stairs. Suddenly someone spoke,

"New Outer Disciple, you have come here, it already shows that you have a good talent, and if you go any further, you will be killing yourself. ”

Zhang Yan turned his head and thanked him, and walked up by himself. After all, not every well-intentioned advice is right, and sometimes advice that you don't understand often leads to different results, and a practitioner can only go further if he believes in himself. When Zhang Yan came to the third layer, he felt an unusually rich energy in the air, but this energy was also unusually violent, and when he sat cross-legged on the ground and began to run the exercises to absorb the energy in the air, he found that his meridians actually felt a slight swelling pain.

And the inner disciples who were cultivating at the second level had no interest in continuing to cultivate at this time, after all, the average age of these inner disciples was only eighteen years old, and they were still just children who had not grown up among mortals. A group of inner disciples got together in twos and threes to discuss and bet, the content was how long would Zhang Yan be carried down?

The first to speak was the disciple who had just opened his mouth to persuade Zhang Yan, "I bet on the contribution of three hundred sects, and in less than a quarter of an hour, this kid will be carried down with blood in his mouth." ”

With the first, there is the second, and the third...... Almost everyone pressed Zhang Yan how long did it take to vomit blood and was carried down, only one person pressed Zhang Yan and walked down intact, everyone looked at this person in surprise, if Zhang Yan was still here, he would definitely be able to recognize the person who pressed him - Zhao Wenze. Zhao Wenze and Zhang Yan were promoted to inner disciples after the first battle, and when Zhang Yan walked to the second floor, he saw it, but he left the second layer before he could say hello to Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan of the third layer didn't know the following topics and gambling games about him, and now all his minds were focused on the huge energy in the meridians in his body, and he didn't dare to be sloppy at all. At this time, Zhang Yan was at the critical juncture of attacking the sixth order of the dream pawn, and the huge energy was like a turbulent stream to launch a charge again and again towards the stone of the sixth order of the dream pawn.

With each impact, the remnants of broken energy impacted the meridians, and Zhang Yanqiang endured the severe pain, tirelessly commanding the dream force to continue to attack the bottleneck. With a "click", the first crack appeared on the bottleneck, followed by the second, the so-called embankment of a thousand miles, collapsed in the anthill. With a "bang", Zhang Yan successfully broke through the fifth order of the dream pawn and reached the sixth order of the dream pawn.

The energy required for each breakthrough of the first order of the Mixed Yuan Heaven Killing Decision was more than three times that of ordinary people, and it still increased with the improvement of the realm, but Zhang Yan quickly filled the empty dantian in such an energy concentration, and then got up and left.

When everyone on the second floor looked at Zhang Yan who was slowly coming down the stairs, a huge mouth appeared on everyone's faces for a while, (I think there must be such a picture in everyone's heart - three question marks appeared on a black man's face, and the word "what!") Zhao Wenze in the crowd only thought that Zhang Yan would soon walk down intact, but he didn't expect that Zhang Yan could stay on the third floor for three full hours with a fifth-order dreamer. It was the third layer where only the best of the inner disciples could barely cultivate, not an arsenal that a disciple could cultivate in the first layer.

Zhang Yan, who went down to the second floor, didn't bother with everyone's expressions too much, just walked straight to the exit of the second floor, and went down to the first floor regardless of it, and then got out of the tower. When Zhang Yan walked out of the tower, the night had already come up, and he rested when he returned to the small courtyard.

The 1,000 sect contributions won by Zhang Yan in the duel were consumed after only three days of redemption after exchanging battle skills. In these three days, Zhang Yan has gained a lot, first of all, the improvement of the dream cultivation realm, from the fifth order of the dream pawn to the sixth order of the dream pawn, and stabilized the foundation, the second is to stop the cloud step in the illusion shadow array to reach the Xiaocheng realm, the pause when the pace is coherent has also been resolved, and finally the growth of combat experience, on the third day, Zhang Yan finally defeated the light and shadow of the battle space derivation, his true strength officially reached the first order of the dream soldier, and in the death again and again, Zhang Yan's spiritual power has increased substantially, and the side effects of the blood slaughter have been alleviated, and it is no longer the previous to kill people when they see them。

On this day, Zhang Yan was sitting cross-legged under the big tree in the small courtyard, and suddenly, a voice appeared in his mind, "Yan boy, come to my cave for a trip, and the medicinal materials for the third time to cultivate the ancient body training technique, the deity is ready." ”
