Chapter 20: Penance
After an afternoon of hard work, and with the first experience, this time there was nothing wrong, Jingchen's second meridian on his right hand was also successfully opened, and now after the meridians of his arms were strengthened, he could initially practice some boxing and palm techniques.
However, Jingchen didn't do this, his current cultivation schedule was full, and he didn't have extra time to cultivate the Yuan Technique.
The next day, Jingchen didn't let Jingyu wake him up, and when the sky just turned a little white, Jingchen was already on the road.
The valley is full of potholes, and running a hundred kilometers under such conditions is also a great test for Jingchen's physical strength.
Jingyu had already marked the trees on the way, so Jingchen didn't have to worry about getting lost, and it was very safe.
When Jing Chen heard about 100 kilometers for the first time, his brain was dizzy, after all, in his impression, he had run five kilometers at most in his previous life, and he would still be tired and half dead like that.
Jingchen didn't complain, if he wanted to get ahead in this Divine Continent, he had to go through the hardships of this cultivation.
The first day's journey was very difficult for Jingchen, a distance of 100 kilometers, and he ran for two hours without being lazy.
The first 30 kilometers were fine, and my body didn't feel tired at all, but after 30 kilometers, the muscles in my calves felt a little sore.
When he ran to seventy kilometers, his legs were a little disobedient, his heavy steps were like being filled with lead, and every time he lifted a step, Jingchen felt that the sweat on his head would reflect colorful light in the sun.
In the last ten kilometers, Jingchen's legs were no longer numerous, and the whole person was working tirelessly like a machine.
Seeing Jingchen's performance, Jingyu also nodded with satisfaction, originally he thought that this requirement was a little too high for Jingchen, but this stinky boy still persevered.
Jing Chen's perseverance was much higher than he imagined, and when he was cultivating, he was like Jing Chen, with his father by his side to guide him, thinking of this, Jing Yu couldn't help but sigh at the passage of time.
After Jingchen finished running, he rested for a while, and when the muscles on his body were no longer so sore, he turned around and threw himself into the waterfall.
This waterfall can be said to be the most spectacular Jingchen has ever seen, the waterfall falls from the cliff of 100 meters, like a silver dragon constantly hitting the water.
Jingchen's mind also flashed a poem from his idol Li Bai: "The flying stream goes straight down three thousand feet, and it is suspected that the Milky Way has fallen for nine days." ”
However, the waterfall in front of him, Li Bai, who has traveled all over the world, has never seen such a spectacular scene.
It's just that Jing Chen can't care about appreciating this landscape now, because what he has to do next is to cross this water curtain about one meter thick and take out the giant sword behind it.
Not to mention the impact of this waterfall, the narrow stone on the surface of the water has been soaked for many years and has grown with moss, and it is very difficult to get a foothold on this stone.
As soon as he thought of this picture, a black hammer appeared in Jing Chen's mind, this kind of cultivation method, he seemed to have seen it in a certain novel in his previous life...
At first, Jingchen did not directly try to cross the waterfall, but chose to try to resist the powerful impact of the waterfall.
As soon as the silver dragon-like jet of water hit the young man's thin body, the skin on his body oozed blood.
"Puff"
After holding on for only about a second, Jingchen's body shook and fell into the lake along the water column.
The pressure caused by the waterfall falling from a height of 100 meters is more than 100 catties, even if you can successfully cross the water curtain of the waterfall, if you want to carry the giant sword and come out again, it is a little impossible.
"I'll go!"
The boy's figure continued to fall from the moss boulder into the water, and each time it was accompanied by a pop, a scream could be heard.
On the first day, Jingchen spent almost all of his time fighting against water pressure, although he also tried to enter the waterfall under pressure twice, but after entering, his body was almost exhausted, and the muscles of his whole body were almost trembling. This kind of cultivation is not much of a drain on Yuan Qi, but it is a great drain on physical strength.
Jingchen could only constantly resist the pressure of the waterfall, and then he was washed into the water, repeatedly. After running out of stamina, lie there and rest for a while, and then continue to cultivate...
The first day's attempt ended in failure after all, but the time Jing Yu gave Jing Chen was ten days, so Jing Chen was not in a hurry, what he had to do now was to adapt to the intensity of this cultivation.
When it was time for dinner, what Jingchen didn't expect was that Ye Ling actually sent the prepared meal to the father and son, it was not too far from where they lived, and with Ye Ling's strength, it wouldn't take long to get to the Valley of Forgotten Worries.
There is a trace of warmth in Jingchen's heart, his mother always silently supports him and Jingyu behind his back, and he is never angry with himself.
"Mother, what are you going to eat today?" Jingchen, who was tired for a day, rarely had time to rest, and he was also very happy when he saw Ye Ling's arrival.
"You've been cultivating hard these days, and your father asked me to make some supplements, and I'll send them to you every day in the future. Ye Ling touched Jingchen's head distressedly and said.
The sky gradually darkened, and the day was over, Jingchen dragged his tired body and began Yuan Qi's cultivation.
Cultivation is often the best when he is most tired, and Jingchen knows this very well, so he will practice for an hour or two before resting every time.
Jing Yu is also very satisfied with Jing Chen's hard work attitude, Jing Chen's mind is relatively mature compared to his peers, and his comprehension ability is also good, if he cultivates well, his future achievements will definitely not be lower than his own.
Time passed quickly, and before I knew it, it had been a week since I came to the valley, and after a week of hard work, Jingchen's originally thin body had now grown a lot stronger, and the outline of some muscles could already be seen.
On the seventh day, Jing Chen also had a certain amount of confidence, although Jing Yu asked him to complete it within ten days, but Jing Chen's cultivation intensity in the past few days was only stronger than in the plan, so he decided to try again.
"It takes three seconds to penetrate a meter-thick waterfall, five seconds to come out with a giant sword, and three seconds to retrieve a sword. If you speed up the speed of taking the sword, you can save about one second, that is, about ten seconds. Jingchen kept calculating in his heart.
"Today, let the master come to meet you!" Jingchen lowered his head and muttered secretly.
Jingchen's movements are now very vigorous, like a spirit monkey, but after entering the waterfall, his body seems to be frozen.
Walking to a position just enough to reach the giant sword, the pressure on Jingchen's body increased.
"Give it to me!" Jing Chen put the giant sword on his shoulder, and took a small step back with the inertia of the sword.
The exit that was close at hand was so far away for Jingchen, the green tendons on his legs burst out, and Jingchen's strength to kick the ground gradually increased.
"Three, two, one"
Finally, he took the last step that far away! Jingchen successfully took the giant sword out of the waterfall on the seventh day of cultivation!
This matter was also greatly unexpected by Jing Yu, who originally thought that ten days was Jing Chen's limit, but he didn't expect it to be completed so quickly.
Jing Yu had no choice but to reformulate the cultivation method for Jing Chen, and Jing Yu found that no matter what goal he set for Jing Chen, he could always complete it ahead of schedule. The rest of the time is to cultivate Yuan Qi and open up the meridians in the Kunlun Divine Scroll.
After three months passed, Jingchen's height had grown a little, and he who used to look at Jingyu still needed to look up, but now he was only about half a head behind Jingyu, and Yuan Qi's progress was also rapid.
Within three months, at the first order of January, the current Jingchen had successfully advanced to the sixth-order Qi Yuan realm. Jing Yu was not surprised that Jing Chen's cultivation speed was so fast, after all, if there was no gap of ten years, Jing Chen would have already condensed the Yuan Force Seed to enter the Yuan Force Realm, and even broke through a few steps within the Yuan Force Realm.
The child born to him and Ye Ling, where can the talent be worse?
After three months of penance, in addition to becoming more tenacious, even Jingchen's speed was about twice as fast as before. When he first ran 100 kilometers, it would take two hours, but now Jingchen's goal has already become 200 kilometers, and after running, he will not be as tired as before and his legs will be weak.
On a boulder in the valley, the young man sat there quietly, and the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi continued to pour into the dantian, and then slowly transformed into wisps of pure energy that spread to the meridians.
In the past three months, Jingchen has successfully opened up three meridians, this one, the sixth meridian in Zhengshi's body.
It is also getting closer and closer to the nine points recorded in that exercise, and every time one meridian is opened, the sense of heaven and earth Yuan Qi will become more and more sensitive.
If there are three more months, Jingchen is also confident that all these nine meridians will be opened!
The beads of sweat on the young man's forehead continued to drip down, obviously opening up the meridians was a very large consumption of Yuan Qi in the body, and it was also a great test for the spirit.
Time passed slowly, and when it was close to noon, this sixth meridian was finally opened under Jingchen's patient cultivation!
