Chapter 9: Strength Improvement

The days passed day by day, spring went to autumn, and half a year passed. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

In the past six months, Zishang and Murong Zhixi have greatly reduced the time to play, and like Zizhou and Zizhang, they stay at home every day to practice martial arts and rest.

They were cautious every day, and they behaved more diligently in front of their elders. At night, the spiritual spring refines the body, and it is not until the spirit is exhausted that it passes out.

After a long time, the lost aura nourished the flowers and plants in the yard very luxuriantly. But luckily, no one cared.

In this way, Zishang broke through to the peak of the Fourfold Realm of Body Refining, and Murong Zhixi broke through to the late stage of the Fivefold Realm of Body Refining.

Lingquan played some roles, and more importantly, they spent more time playing on martial arts, and their strength was greatly improved.

Autumn is the harvest season, and this year's harvest is very good, with the breeze blowing, the wheat waves surging, and the aroma of rice rolling. As far as the eye can see, thousands of acres of rice fields are full of gold.

Another bumper year.

The prime of life is busy harvesting ripe rice, and many teenagers are also involved, and the sub-merchants are no exception.

The sun was scorching, and waves of heat echoed in the fields. He held a sickle in his right hand and a rice stalk in his left hand, harvesting it quickly, sweating from his chin and sweating like rain. But he always wielded the scythe mechanically, and his chest rose and fell violently.

Looking at the others, except for those who are a little older and cut unhurriedly, the teenagers are like him, one by one, as if they are dying.

Cutting rice is a physical work, and it is a good way for martial artists in the body refining realm to cultivate, which can not only harvest the rice, but also kill two birds with one stone. Although there are nearly 10,000 acres of paddy fields and less than 500 laborers, with such a speed, it can be harvested in only three or four days.

Of course, it is quite tiring, and even high-level martial artists who refine their bodies are a little unbearable.

From the top of the heavenly dome, the sun gradually sets on the west mountain, and the sunset covers the sky, like a red and yellow cloth across the heavens and the earth.

People gradually left the rice fields where they had worked all day, and returned home in groups.

Zishang dragged his tired body and collapsed on the bed in his room, his body relaxed for a while, and he was so comfortable that he hummed.

In the middle of the night, the biological clock set for half a year made him open his eyes with difficulty. Blinked a few times, rubbed it again, patted his face, and slowly sobered up.

Hurriedly poured a glass of water, cautiously opened the door, and after looking left and right to make sure that there was no one, he crept to the wall, looked around again, and then jumped out of the wall, and ran along the path to the foot of Shigu Mountain.

After a cup of tea, they came to the outside of the fairy cave from the foot of the mountain, looked around and didn't find Murong Zhixi, they just started a few days, they met together to get the spiritual spring in the cave, and then in order to keep it secret, go back quickly, and the two rarely met by chance.

Zishang's right hand reached to his waist and suddenly paused, and then he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to bring the gourd containing the spiritual spring, and he had a headache.

"Forget it, if you don't go back tonight, let's practice outside. The air outside is fresh, the scenery is beautiful, and it makes people's minds feel good, and the cultivation must be good. Zishang thought to himself.

Tonight is cloudless, the stars are shining, and although it is autumn, the beauty of the night sky is not inferior to that of a summer night. Crickets and gnats compete with each other, and frogs in the fields are crisp, a little noisy but equally enjoyable.

Zishang lay on the spiritual spring and drank it in large gulps until his stomach was round and he couldn't drink it anymore. So he sat down in front of the "immortal statue", took a deep breath, and quietly absorbed the aura.

The aura of heaven and earth is relatively thin, and it is necessary to refine the peak of the body to feel and absorb it slowly, but the aura in the spiritual spring enters the body, because the temperature rises, the solubility decreases, the aura is released, and the rich aura nourishes and strengthens the remaining innate breath in the human body, so that the person's ability to control the breath in the body increases, and at the same time, the muscles and meridians can be strengthened in a trace, but due to the small amount of innate breath, the aura cannot be controlled to leave the whole body, and it is a great waste.

Gradually, the aura slowly drained away, and the sub-merchant released the water, set aside the inventory, and drank it to his heart's content, and continued to absorb it.

The close to the natural environment greatly enhances the control of the sub-merchant over the trace amount of innate breath, although the absorption efficiency is still very low, but the speed is greatly improved, which makes the sub-merchant very happy.

The night breeze was slightly cool, the fog gradually rose, and unconsciously, the flowers and plants were covered with small dewdrops, and Zishang's eyelashes and hair also gathered a lot, but he didn't realize it.

It wasn't until the eve of dawn that Zishang suddenly woke up. Although after half a year of penance, he was able to absorb the aura overnight, but by the next day he would be very tired, and yesterday he consumed too much and his energy was not good, so he still fell asleep.

Still waking up in time, otherwise it will be troublesome to be discovered. Still cautiously sneaking home and sleeping with his head covered.

About an hour later, the door was opened, and the senior executive, who was in his old age, came to wake him up, and saw Zishang sleeping soundly on the bed, with a thin quilt half-dragged on the ground. His heart tightened, and he couldn't bear to wake up Zishang.

The executive sighed in his heart, "Alas, this kid has been working so hard lately, he just doesn't go out to play, and he has to go to help cut the rice, so he really has nothing to blame." Forget it, let him sleep. ”

The sun slowly climbed up from the east mountain, until it was almost noon, Zishang stretched a big lazy waist, and suddenly he was full of excitement, turned over, and tried to open his eyes, and the harsh sunlight made his eyes close again.

"No! it's noon!" he sprang out, just as he was about to run into the field, when the shouts of the executives came behind him.

"Young master, young master, don't go, they're all back, let's have lunch, and we'll go again in the afternoon!"

"Grandpa Gao, why don't you call me!" Zishang complained unhappily.

"Young master, don't work so hard, you're still young, your body won't be able to stand it!"

"Alas, Grandpa Gao, it's true that I'm a child, but I'm also a martial artist! I am enduring hardships now in order to break through to the Qi Refining Realm as soon as possible, so I don't have to be so painful when I get there!" Zishang said a bunch of truths, and the senior executives lowered their heads in frustration.

Zishang suddenly felt that this was a bit rude, so he hurriedly said: "Forget it, Grandpa Gao, if I don't get up early in the future, please call me, okay?"

"Alas, well, the young master will lead us to revive the great merchants in the future, and it is understandable that diligence is also understandable, but I am old and confused, if only my grandson had half of you. "

The executives looked at Zishang's immature face and looked at his firm eyes, and suddenly their hearts swelled with infinite emotion.

Zishang ate two meals for lunch, and after eating, he suddenly realized that he had made a huge mistake, and his whole body became more weak, and he was also sleepy.

I could only rest for another half an hour, and when I had almost digested it, I rushed to the rice field with a sickle, looked at the piece of land I was responsible for, and was a big step behind others, so I rushed over and harvested hard.

……

This year, in order to celebrate, the villagers decided to hold a harvest carnival while the farm was slack, and they also planned to hold a youth martial arts exchange meeting at the same time.

Zishang seized the time to break through the fifth level of the refining realm, and at least kept the status of the "rookie six-star", otherwise he would be laughing and generous.

For several days, he kept drinking spiritual springs, absorbing spiritual energy, and releasing water to vent floods. After a week, Zishang steadily maintained the peak of the early stage of the Fifth Fold of the Body Refining Realm. I didn't feel a little pressure about the upcoming martial arts exchange meeting.

In three days, the celebration and exchange meeting will begin. Zishang leisurely played with the sword in the small courtyard, his heart was relaxed, and the sword dance was also very elegant, and he unconsciously improved his swordsmanship.

"Great, Fufeng Sword Technique has improved again, and it is close to the completion of Sword Technique! Maybe it can be ranked a little higher in the six-star battle. Hahahaha" Zishang was in a good mood for a while.

"Brother Zishang!"

A nightingale-like voice sounded from outside the door, and Murong Zhixi stepped into the small courtyard, and said happily when he saw that Zishang's swordsmanship had improved.

"Great, Brother Zishang, your swordsmanship has improved again, and you have also broken through the fivefold realm of body refining, haha, I just want to find someone to have a discussion. Come on, we've done two tricks......"
