Volume I: The Last Days Chapter 4: Seven Years Later
Time flies, and seven years have passed since the cataclysm befell the world.
In the past seven years, the earth that was once clear and blue has undergone earth-shaking changes, but human beings still have not defeated zombies.
At the beginning, the human race also launched several large-scale cleanups with its advanced combat power, using heaven-level magic weapons that destroyed the heavens and the earth, destroyed several cities, and once eliminated most of the zombies.
But soon there were high-level zombies in the corpse group that were comparable to the top combat power of humans. Under the overwhelming siege, even the saints of the distraction period could hardly get any bargains.
Not only that, a force calling itself the "Mountain and Sea Alliance" was born, and most of its members were monsters and spirits who had cultivated into demons, and they would appear at critical moments when humans and zombies were fighting, killing many Terran monks.
After sacrificing at least ten high-ranking monks in their infancy, humanity and zombies are once again in a stalemate.
The only thing that is gratifying is that a year after the cataclysm, the various sects in Huaxia began to recruit disciples, and under the cultivation of the sects, a large number of human beings have cultivated and greatly improved their overall strength.
After that, the War Alliance presided over several martial arts competitions, and selected many demon disciples with qualifications against the sky, and under the accumulation of resources of the Eight Factions and One Alliance, the cultivation of these demon disciples improved rapidly.
Among them, the most eye-catching are the 100 young monks who are on the list of rookies of the War Alliance, and the top ten on the list led by Xiao Yuhe are regarded as the hope of the human race.
Several people who fled with Li Tianxia at the beginning also worshiped under the sects of various factions, Meizhiyuan had better qualifications and worshiped into Emperor Tafeng Cihang Jingzhai, and Du Feng took Qian Yang and Zhao Lin to worship Wanliu City, where the rivers gathered.
Of course, Li Tianxia, who is far away in the center of the earth, doesn't know all this, and in order to return to the surface, he is repeating the forging every day. Fortunately, the milky white halo of the star soul can replenish the energy required by the body, so that he will not be starved to death before the forging body is completed.
。。。。。。
"The effect of this "Nine Forging Opera" is getting worse and worse. ”
After completing another day's cultivation, Li Tianxia was very dissatisfied with the result. The center of the earth doesn't know the years, and he doesn't know how long the time has passed, and the only measure is the progress of the forging body every day.
Under the torture of water and fire, as early as the first year, he had already practiced "Nine Forging Opera" to the ninth picture, and successfully introduced the first wisp of aura into his body, of course, it was also the two aura of water and fire with extremely distinct attributes.
The aura of fire and water is domineering, and until now he can't forget how life and death were when the two auras first entered the body.
After obtaining the first wisp of aura, Li Tianxia had no exercises that could be cultivated, and he didn't know how to do it at all, but he didn't care, anyway, what the star soul asked for was to improve his physical fitness, so he simply used the cultivated aura to continue to exercise his physique.
This made him inexplicably fit the cultivation purpose of the first stage of cultivation, the Qi cultivation period.
In the second year, Li Tianxia connected the meridians of the whole body recorded in "Nine Forging Opera" and completed the first small realm of the Qi training period;
In the third year, the qi of water and fire quenched the body, tempered the skin of the body like a stubborn stone, the bone like steel, and the dirt like leather, completing the second small realm refining the body realm;
In the fourth year, the aura nourishes the brain, the senses are clear, the mind is quick, and the third small realm is completed to refine the divine realm.
In this way, he had already completed the cultivation of the Qi cultivation period.
The unconscious Li Tianxia didn't have any follow-up exercises, so naturally he didn't know that he had completed the Qi cultivation period, but he had a feeling that he had touched the threshold.
But he didn't pay attention to it, his physical strength was not enough, and he groped for the remaining three years, and practiced all the meridians in his body that were not recorded in the "Nine Forging Opera", and still tempered every inch of his body and meridians day and night.
No one has ever worked so hard during the Qi training period.
Each exercise has its own merits, but even the highest level of heaven-level exercises are only useful meridians for cultivation. Life span is limited, monks spend their lives in the pursuit of higher realms, once they reach the requirements for breakthroughs, they can't wait to advance, and few people will spend their precious lives in the realm of this foundation to keep boiling.
But the complete meridians allowed his body to hold more aura, and the blue and red qi sea of the dantian was at least twice as wide as that of ordinary monks.
With the assistance of the Star Soul Aura, he can consume his body unscrupulously and hone his foundation, both in terms of cultivation speed and strength, which are several times that of ordinary monks.
How can a monk in the ordinary Qi cultivation period have such a magical thing as a star soul halo, which can be replenished 24 hours a day.
His seven years of penance were enough to withstand more than ten or even decades of training as an earthly monk.
At this time, in addition to the Yi Shen Bow, the Sword of the Other Shore and the Code of Hammurabi, Li Tianxia had another bronze mirror and a ring on his hand.
These are the results of experiments with the Star Soul after he has achieved some results in forging his body recently.
The Star Soul often enveloped his body in a halo, weakening the power of the cold water and lava, sending him out of the shield, and although he didn't last long enough to return to the surface, he was able to get two nice pieces of equipment.
Experimenting with the abilities of these equipment is the only way for Li Tianxia to pass the time.
"Hey!"
Li Tianxia held the Yishen bow, the aura penetrated his arm, and the bowstring that was originally immovable was pulled a little by him, and a golden arrow shadow faintly appeared between the bowstring and the bow body, but it could not be condensed.
"It seems that the strength is still not enough. I really don't know how powerful the arrows shot by the Yi Shen's bow will be. ”
With a wry smile, he picked up the sword on the other side, and swung out two sword qi with a brush, but Li Tianxia shook his head again.
"I can feel the terrifying aura hidden in this sword, but I can't touch it. It's still too low. ”
Then he picked up the Code of Hammurabi, thought about it and threw it back, this thing was also clueless, but he could feel that this code also had unfathomable power, and in a trance he could feel that it was faintly connected to a distant place.
"It's still this mirror that is practical. ”
Li Tianxia only found two functions in this rusty bronze mirror, one was that the mirror surface was condensed into a copper-colored beam attack, and the other was more important, it could excite a white beam with the meaning of dispelling.
In the end, it was the ring in his hand, this black ring, and unsurprisingly a space magic weapon, with an exaggerated space of hundreds of thousands of cubic meters, which made Li Tianxia wonder if he would have a chance to fill it in this life.
The ring also has an additional Soul Gathering function, which is not yet effective in the center of the earth, but is sure to be the most useful accessibility when it is outside.
In addition to recording the map of cultivation, "Nine Forging Opera" also has some introductions to common sense. According to the above records, the exercises and magic weapons can be divided into four levels of heaven and earth Xuanhuang according to their power, and each level is divided into four grades: lower, middle, upper, and extreme.
Li Tianxia doesn't know what level these treasures of his belong to, but they are definitely not ordinary treasures. Among them, he felt that the Yi Divine Bow and the Sword of the Other Shore were the most powerful, followed by the bronze mirror, the black stone ring and the code did not have a particularly obvious aura, so it was not easy to judge, and the set of battle armor that had not yet been obtained felt much weaker.
After sorting out his pile of treasures, Li Tianxia came to a certain place in the magma area and looked at the set of armor there.
Recently, the speed of ascension by forging his body has been getting slower and slower, and it is far away from the center of the earth if he continues like this, so he has put his mind on this set of armor.
The armor must have a not weak protective effect, and with his physique, wearing armor, he may have enough protective power.
"If you raise a little more, you'll get the armor. ”
The armor was buried deeper, and at his current level, it was not enough insurance.
In the following time, Li Tianxia began to exercise day after day, and this practice was another half a year.
On this day, he finally felt ready to come to the position of the armor.
"Star Soul, let's get started. ”
“。。。。。。 ”
As usual, the milky white aura of the star soul shrouded his body, and Li Tianxia stepped out of the shield and jumped into the rolling magma like a dive.
The magma was hot and heavy, and as soon as he jumped in, he was swept away by the lava flow, several meters away from the armor that was already so close.
But all this was expected by him, and after standing firm, he began to take heavy steps towards the armor.
After dozens of minutes, he finally came to the front, Li Tianxia did not hold the armor for the first time, but groped nearby. After a long time, he straightened up, with a helmet and a pair of combat boots in his hands.
The skin on his body had begun to scorch, and he didn't have time to be happy, so Li Tianxia held the armor in his arms again and returned with difficulty.
By the time he returned to the shield, he was covered in burns.
"Cough ~ cough ~ It's so dangerous, I still overestimate myself. ”
Li Tianxia looked at the mighty red and black armor beside him and smiled happily.
