Chapter 8: The Worst Times, the Best Times

Su Xiaopang's original name was not Su Xiaopang.

may be the reason why King Shou wants a girl more, after giving birth to thirteen sons in a row, King Shou, who feels that his dream of having a daughter may not be realized in this life, can only settle for the next best thing and give the thirteenth son a girl's name - Su Xiaoyue.

Because of his own existence, he pinned some kind of good expectations on King Shou, so Su Xiaopang was more favored than his twelve brothers in King Shou and Princess Shou since he was a child.

In addition, there are twelve brothers on it, and while developing Su Xiaopang's lazy temperament of not learning and not knowing, he also raised Su Xiaopang's body shape far beyond ordinary people.

At a certain banquet, Su Han, who met for the first time, was shocked that Su Xiaopang could become such a horizontal and vertical body shape, so he changed his name without Su Xiaopang's consent - originally he wanted to call him Su Dapang, but considering that Su Xiaopang was only seven years old at the time, and the name Dapang was too hard, he may not be able to shake it for the time being, so he retreated and changed it to Xiaopang.

Miraculously, I don't know what to think, after hearing that he was changed to a new name, Su Xiaopang was not dissatisfied because of this, but felt that this name was much better than his original name.

As a result, Su Xiaopang became an alias that Su Xiaopang himself tacitly acquiesced to and liked more than his real name.

This call has been called for ten years.

As the saying goes, there are only wrong names, no wrong nicknames.

Su Xiaochubby is as his name suggests, and his free and easy personality can indeed be called wide and fat.

In the past, this little fat man didn't seem to care about anything.

In his world, there seems to be nothing that can't be forgotten in one big meal – if there is, then two.

Only, this time......

Looking at the wind and clouds, the green ...... of a table Su Xiaopang, who finally couldn't hold back his tears after sweeping away a table of vegetables, Su Han knew that this incident might not be something that Su Xiaopang could forget after eating one or two meals.

Seeing that Su Xiaopang seemed to have an endless tendency to cry, Su Han rarely showed impatience this time.

glanced at him sympathetically, and sighed silently in his heart - perhaps, this is the price of growth.

The transformation of a boy into a man will inevitably encounter some blows and bear some pain.

It's just that the blow Su Xiaopang encountered was a little more special, and the pain he endured was more difficult for most men in the world to accept.

"Who?!"

'Wow wow woo' cried for a while, Su Xiaopang wiped away his tears, raised his head, looked at Su Han with red eyes and asked.

Although his question was not clear, Su Han also knew what he meant by this sentence.

After thinking about it, he didn't hide it, and he didn't add personal emotions and thoughts, so he repeated what he had seen to Su Xiaopang in a simple white description method.

After listening, Su Xiaopang did not respond.

After a long silence, Su Xiaopang suddenly got up, "I'm going to ask her!"

After speaking, Su Xiaopang didn't wait for Su Han to stay, and walked quickly to the outside of the palace.

Behind him, Su Han was not ready to stay.

This kind of thing, now that you know about it, you can't let Su Xiaopang pretend to be a turtle as if he doesn't know anything, right?

Moreover, he just saw that Su Xiaopang had brought him to eat at the house last time, and swore that this would be his future princess's woman suspected of having a private meeting with another man, and he didn't catch him in bed on the spot.

Su Xiaopang is suspected of being green, and he is just guessing by himself.

Specifically, whether he was buttoned up on his head, and how many hats he was wearing, it is better to let Su Xiaopang check it himself.

As for whether he can ask clearly, with Su Xiaopang's identity, as long as he is not lacking in heart and eyes to the point of being completely heartless, Su Han does not think that under the premise of suspicion and clues, Su Xiaopang will not be able to find out the truth.

It's just that if the truth is really what he guessed, I hope that Su Xiaopang will be able to control himself by then.

"Hey...... I'm still too kind!"

The kind-hearted Su Han looked up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle, and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh in his mouth.

As he sighed, a faint fragrance suddenly came from the air behind him.

There is no need to look back, just by the smell in the air, Su Han can judge who the person is.

Sure enough, the next moment, a text appeared out of thin air in the void in front of Su Han's sight:

"You little villain, what bad ideas are you holding back?"

He skimmed out dissatisfied, what does it mean to hold back a bad idea? Obviously, he had just done a good deed.

Faintly retracting his gaze, first squeezing out an aggrieved expression on his face, Su Han turned his head to look at Xiao Xiaoyu behind him.

"How can you hold back any bad ideas, Xiaoyu'er, how can you slander people's innocence out of thin air. ”

Xiao Xiaoyu had a soft smile on his face, and rolled his eyes slightly when he heard this.

"The last time you looked at the sky and said this sentence with emotion, it was an imperial history who impeached you in the court, and he was beheaded all over the house because it involved the communication empire. ”

Hearing this, the aggrieved expression on Su Han's face with 'you wronged me again' subconsciously converged.

"The last time you said this, a general who spoke ill of you behind your back had just been raided because of a delicious military salary. ”

Su Han couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

"The last time you said this, a restaurant that stole your recipes and didn't give you so-called royalties had just been bankrupted by joint law enforcement because of hygiene issues, safety issues, and consumer fraud. ”

Inexplicably, Su Han felt a little weak.

"Up, Last, Last ......"

Seeing that she seemed to have the posture of exposing her old bottom one by one, Su Han finally couldn't listen to it anymore.

"Stop, stop!"

Su Han glared at Xiao Xiaoyu angrily, "You came here at noon, just to expose my old bottom?"

Seeing that he was not happy, Xiao Xiaoyu shook his head with a smile and stopped continuing the topic.

stepped forward and gently helped Su Han cut her hair - it wasn't actually very messy, but she had been used to doing it for many years.

After Su Han smoothed the wrinkles on his clothes, Fang is mouth had a soft smile on the corner of his mouth, and raised his head to look at Su Han.

At the same time, the words on the water mirror in front of him changed, "Didn't you wait for the matter of the exercises?"

Now that my aunt is ready, let's choose with my aunt. ”

"Exercises?" Su Han was surprised, "Didn't you say you would have to wait for two days?"

"Well," Xiao Xiaoyu nodded slightly, "things are going a little smoother than expected, and now it's ready." ”

"What does that require me to do?"

"No," Xiao Xiaoyu shook his head, "Just go with my aunt." ”

"Good. Su Han nodded.

I thought that what Xiao Xiaoyu said about going with her was to leave the palace and go somewhere with her.

Even because of the words she said before, such as preparing and finding a way, Su Han also considered whether she would have to go through some tests or encounter any dangers.

Outcome..... None of them.

didn't even come out of the palace, after Su Han nodded in response, Xiao Xiaoyu was directly in the courtyard of the palace, and took out a stone mirror that looked as ordinary as her in front of Su Han.

With a flick of his fingers, a drop of blood fell on the mirror surface of the stone mirror.

As the blood fell, a glimmer of light appeared on the mirror surface of the stone mirror.

The shimmer quickly magnifies, gradually enveloping the entire mirror.

The stone mirror is suspended in the air, and after a wave of water fluctuations on the mirror, the stone mirror suddenly becomes crystal clear, and the light can be seen.

Just when Su Han was surprised that this stone mirror still had such a change, the change on the stone mirror reappeared.

From the top of the nine heavens, a colored light that could not be seen clearly in several colors fell, straight into the mirror surface of the stone mirror.

With this colored light downstairs, above the mirror, the same colorful colors are refracted.

This colorful color lingered in the void, and gradually projected a flash of illusory colored light.

With the appearance of the light gate, the corners of Xiao Xiaoyu's mouth were slightly hooked upward, and a shallow smile appeared on his face.

glanced at Su Han, who was dazzled by this series of changes and stood there not knowing what to do.

Xiao Xiaoyu reached out and grabbed one of Su Han's hands.

"Let's go. ”

A word in the void manifested out of thin air, and a gentle pull came from the hand.

Su Han didn't resist, and followed Xiao Xiaoyu step by step and stepped into the illusory light gate projected by the stone mirror.

Although the light gate is illusory, it seems to communicate two worlds.

One step was taken, and the light and shadow in front of me suddenly changed.

When the change was over, Su Han looked at it again, and found that he had already left his palace and was in the ...... In a strange space full of bookshelves.

This space is very peculiar, it doesn't argue, it doesn't distinguish between up and down, and it can't even sense the passage of time.

Being in it gives people a sense of being out of time and space, completely isolated from the real world.

For a long time, I got out of this strange trance.

Su Han turned his head and looked at Xiao Xiaoyu, who had a calm expression on his face and seemed to be accustomed to the strangeness here, "Xiaoyu'er, what kind of place is this?"

Xiao Xiaoyu took Su Han's hand, as if he had a goal, and kept walking towards a certain row of bookshelves, and replied with an indifferent expression, "The place where most of the exercises in the world are stored." ”

Where most of the world's exercises and magical powers are stored?

Is there such a good place in the world?

Just thinking about it, Xiao Xiaoyu had already pulled Su Han to a row of bookshelves in the depths of the space.

Unlike other bookshelves, which are densely packed with ancient books and jade slips, this row of shelves is only divided into three layers.

There are more ancient books and jade slips on the lowest level, and on the second layer there is only a jade slip, a beast skin full of strange words, and a seed that is clearly in front of you, but you can't see the shape, the color, and the seed of what species.

And on the top of the bookshelf, there is only one ancient book.

That ancient book should have not been read for a long time, and even placed in the most conspicuous place, but it inexplicably gave people a feeling that it had long been forgotten.

On top of the ancient book, it is full of dust, and even faintly bury this ancient book, I don't know how many years it has been placed here and no one has turned it over.

"These are ......?"

Standing in front of this row of bookshelves, smelling suspiciously, Su Han subconsciously looked at the ancient books and jade slips on the shelves.

The jade slip couldn't see anything on the outside, and the ancient books that were almost buried by dust couldn't see the name because of the dust.

But it was just the names written on the dozen or so ancient books that were randomly thrown in the bottom row, and after taking a look, Su Han couldn't help but be shocked again and again.

"Ancestral Dragon Sutra", "Great Sun Golden Black Sutra", "Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Sutra", "Immortal Golden Body", "Taiqing Immortal Formula", "Creation Divine Formula"......

Rows of names, some of which Su Han had never heard of, some of which he had never heard of, but he could feel very awesome from his previous life, but some of them had heard of it from this world but occasionally but only a few words.

And now, these awesome awesome exercises that can't be more awesome are lined up in front of Su Handan, looking like they are being picked.

Even, in the corner of the bottom row of bookshelves, Su Han also saw a familiar name - "The Initial Interpretation of the True Meaning of the Royal Road", which was the Su family's ancestral exercises that he had seen in the palace in the morning.

I was shocked by the names on the bottom row of bookshelves for a long time, and when Su Han gradually restrained his emotions, he noticed that from beginning to end, Xiao Xiaoyu and the others didn't seem to glance at the bottom row of the bookshelf.

From the beginning, her gaze was fixed on the second row of bookshelves, a jade slip, an animal skin, and a seed.

More precisely, it is the jade slip and the seeds.

"Little fish?"

Although he felt that the names seen in the bottom row of the bookshelf were all awesome, Su Han, who didn't know much about it, knew that it was best for him to listen to Xiao Xiaoyu's opinion.

Seeing that he came back to his senses, Xiao Xiaoyu hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled softly at him.

Reaching out and taking the jade slip from the second row of the bookshelf, he handed it to Su Han.

At the same time, a line of text appeared in front of Su Han:

"My aunt's personal suggestion is to choose this jade slip. ”

Su Han naturally believed Xiao Xiaoyu, reached out and took the jade slip, held it in his hand and looked at it and asked, "What kind of exercise is this?"

"The Crucible"

Next to the jade slip in Su Han's hand, four big characters and a small paragraph appeared out of thin air:

"The furnace of heaven and earth: melt the ten thousand laws of heaven and earth into one furnace, take the three thousand avenues as the furnace fire, and raise a hundred scriptures in the furnace. ”

Looking at the introduction, I feel very awesome, and it is indeed worthy of Xiao Xiaoyu's suggestion to let me choose.

Very satisfied with the exercises recorded by the jade slip in his hand, Su Han nodded lightly, and was ready to choose this.

However, although he had already made a choice in his heart, Su Han's gaze still unconsciously fell on the seed and a beast skin full of words.

Judging from the placement, the three items placed on the second row of the bookshelf should be more awesome than the more than ten books below, and it seems that this is indeed the case from the introduction of the jade slip in his hand.

Then since the exercises recorded in this jade slip are so awesome, what will the other two be?

With curiosity, Su Han couldn't help but ask, "What is the difference between that kind of seed and animal skin?"

As soon as the words fell, Su Han saw the introduction of large and small words appear next to the seed and the animal skin

Next to the seed, the five big characters are: Chaos Seed Green Lotus.

Small character introduction: Chaos seed green lotus, thirty-six flowers, one flower and one world, one leaf and one Bodhi, eight hundred kinds of left Taoism, three thousand avenues.

Judging from the introduction, this sub-style thing seems to be the lotus seed of the chaotic green lotus, this seed takes root and sprouts, and the long leaves bloom.

Thirty-six flowers bloom, one flower and one world, one leaf and one Bodhi, three thousand avenues of flowers, and eight hundred side doors of leaves.

This introduction seems to be the opposite of the furnace of heaven and earth.

One is to take the three thousand avenues as the furnace fire and raise the hundred scriptures, and the other is to take the lotus seed as the foundation and conceive the three thousand avenues.

Although it is the opposite, it inexplicably gives people a sense of similarity.

After reading the introduction of the lotus seed, Su Han's gaze fell on the animal skin next to him.

Next to the animal skin, there are also four big characters written - the incarnation of heaven and man.

But other than that, there is no specific small print to introduce the principles and details of the exercises contained in this animal skin.

Seeing this, Su Han couldn't help but be puzzled, and looked at Xiao Xiaoyu in wonder, "...... this animal skin?"

Seeing him ask, Xiao Xiaoyu frowned, and subconsciously wanted to reach out and hide the animal skin.

hesitated, but finally held back and didn't move.

When Su Han looked at the animal skin again, he found that there was an extra line of small words next to the animal skin: Heaven and man are incarnated, there is no self and no appearance, this animal skin is incomplete.

A few more words, but it seems to ...... It still gives people a hazy and unclear feeling.

It seems that Xiao Xiaoyu doesn't want to let himself know the exercises recorded in this animal skin.

Why?

Is this the practice she herself is cultivating?

It shouldn't be this reason, if it's just this reason, Xiao Xiaoyu shouldn't hide it from himself.

That...... What's wrong with this exercise?

Thinking about it, Su Han asked casually, "Xiao Yu'er, what kind of exercises are you practicing?"

Hearing this, Xiao Xiaoyu glanced at Su Han helplessly and replied, "Chaos Seed Green Lotus." ”

After answering, he reluctantly reminded, "Don't do this kind of thing in the future, don't do it again in the future, and you will be hated if you ask this question." ”

Su Han nodded, looked at the lotus seeds and animal skins in the second row of the bookshelf, and retracted his gaze lightly.

Since Xiao Xiaoyu cultivated the 'Chaos Seed Blue Lotus', the 'Natural Transformation' recorded in the animal skin, Xiao Xiaoyu obviously didn't want to let himself know about it, and the exercise itself was not complete.

Then his best choice seems to be indeed the 'Heaven and Earth Melting Pot' contained in the jade slip recommended by Xiao Xiaoyu in his hand.

Thinking about it, Su Han's gaze inadvertently fell on the ancient book that was covered by dust in the top row of the bookshelf.

Seeing that this ancient book was clearly placed in the most conspicuous position of this row of bookshelves, it was somehow left out in the cold and was already covered with dust

Su Han asked curiously, "Xiao Yu'er, what kind of exercise is this ancient book? In such a conspicuous position, why doesn't anyone seem to touch it?" ”

"Nine turns of Xuangong. ”

Seeing that he was interested in this ancient book, Xiao Xiaoyu also introduced him to him.

"Nine turns of Xuangong, nine turns of Xuangong, corresponding to the nine realms of immortals.

Every time Xuangong breaks through one layer, the great realm breaks through one realm.

Every time Xuangong turns, the ten thousand laws of heaven and earth are forcibly accepted to quench the body, and the three thousand avenues are intercepted to refine the gods.

Nothing is missing, invincible at the same level.

Xuan Gong broke nine turns, broke the shackles with strength, and proved to be free.

It can reproduce chaos, create laws, and recreate the world. ”

After reading the introduction of this ancient book that was covered by dust, Su Han was full of curiosity, and finally there were only two words left - awesome.

However, although this 'Nine Turns Xuangong' sounded more awesome than any 'Heaven and Earth Melting Pot' and 'Chaos Seed Blue Lotus', Su Han didn't complain that Xiao Xiaoyu didn't even recommend this to him.

He knew that since Xiao Xiaoyu had given up this choice, she naturally had a reason.

Moreover, since this exercise is so awesome, it is placed in such a conspicuous position, but it is covered with dust, and no one cares about it for many years.

This point in itself speaks for itself - there may be some problems or drawbacks in this 'Nine Turns Xuangong' that he does not know.

Otherwise, who would not choose such an awesome exercise?

Sure enough, the next moment, the words in front of Su Han's eyes changed.

The previous introduction of the exercise became a defect in the exercise, or the reason for not choosing the exercise.

"'Nine Turns Xuangong' is the first method in ancient and modern times, and 'Heaven and Earth Melting Furnace' and 'Chaos Seed Blue Lotus' have all evolved from this method.

However, although this exercise is magical and mysterious, and the entry is simple, it is slow to enter the realm and difficult to achieve.

After the introduction of the exercises, if you want to improve, you need to consume a lot of resources to accumulate huge spiritual power to support the consumption of the broken mirror and fight against the crisis of ten thousand methods of quenching the body and refining the gods of the Great Dao.

Every time the realm is breached, the resources required are tens or even hundreds of times that of the same level.

And with the improvement of the realm, in the later stage, the consumption of Xuangong breaking through the realm is increased geometrically as the exponential explosion principle you proposed. ”

After explaining and glancing at Su Han, Xiao Xiaoyu continued, "Although the consumption is huge, because the exercises are really powerful, it is difficult to meet opponents in the same rank.

Hundreds of millions of years ago, this 'Nine Turns Xuangong' was not uncultivated.

Although the practice is only passed down among a few people and their descendants, there are always one or two people in each generation who can cultivate this exercise to the sixth and seventh turns and attain immortal golden immortals.

It's just that since the emergence of the system caused the Dark Ages, the wrath of the Heavenly Dao has descended on the curse of heaven and earth.

Resources have become the biggest shackles on the way forward for the monks of the Three Realms, and this 'Nine Turns Xuangong' wants to break through the most resource-consuming resources.

At first, there were still people who did not give up and tried it, but after pushing the Xuangong to the third and fourth turns, they had no progress due to the huge consumption, and they stopped outside the immortal path in their lives. /

Over time, the 'Nine Turns Xuangong', the first method in ancient and modern times, has fallen to the point where no one cares about it today. ”

After explaining, seeing that Su Han was still looking at the dusty 'Nine Turns Xuangong' with his eyes shining, Xiao Xiaoyu couldn't help but shake his head amusedly.

"Okay, don't look at it, it's time to go back.

Although the 'Nine Turns Xuangong' exercise is good, it is no longer suitable for this era.

The 'Heaven and Earth Melting Pot' in your hand is also evolved from the 'Nine Turns Xuangong', although it is slightly inferior to the refining body, but the final achievement is not worse than the 'Nine Turns Xuangong'. ”

That being said, the same is true.

But Xiao Xiaoyu didn't understand, but Su Han himself knew his own situation.

First of all, Xiao Xiaoyu didn't say whether the 'Heaven and Earth Melting Pot' in his hand was easy or difficult to get started, because Xiao Xiaoyu felt that there was a system, and as long as he had enough experience, he could learn the exercises with a single click.

But he himself understands that he doesn't have any exercises at all, and the 'Heaven and Earth Melting Pot', which is obviously one of the top exercises in the world, will it be so easy to get started?

And this point, the comment of 'Nine Turns Xuangong' that is "easy to get started" can directly solve the problem.

As for the follow-up of the Nine Turns Xuangong, the consumption in the same realm was huge, the entry was slow, and even because of the existence of the curse of heaven and earth, the 'Nine Turns Xuangong' was not able to break through the fourth turn.

Are these things a problem for him?

The consumption is huge, dozens or hundreds of times that of the same level, but his absorption of the medicinal effect of the elixir is also dozens of times that of those geniuses who have awakened the highest quality system.

As for those who have awakened to the ordinary system, it is hundreds of times exceeded.

This directly solves the problem of huge consumption.

As for the Heavenly Dao curse, the bloodline shackles,

He ...... There's no such thing at all!

Therefore, the drawbacks of 'Nine Turns Xuangong' requiring a lot of resources to improve have no impact on him.

Even, because of the existence of the curse of heaven and earth, the resources in the world have been in a state of surplus.

Although it cannot be said that it is necessary to obtain resources, it is indeed many times easier to obtain resources than before the appearance of the curse of heaven and earth.

Therefore, the huge consumption of resources in the Heaven and Earth Furnace is not an obstacle to him, on the contrary, each realm of the Heaven and Earth Furnace breaks through the realm with force, forcibly accepts the world's ten thousand laws to quench the body, and intercepts the domineering attributes of the Three Thousand Great Dao Refining Gods, but it also greatly makes up for his lack of a system and inability to improve his skill in the exercises through experience.

On this point, the Crucible of Heaven and Earth?

None of them work!

No matter which one of them he chooses, for Su Han, every realm is improved, and he needs to accumulate insights bit by bit.

Synthesize these.

For others, this is the worst era for cultivating the 'Nine Turns Xuangong'.

But for Su Han, this is the best era.

Even, it can be said that this 'Nine Turns Xuangong' is now the most suitable exercise for him, and there is no one!
