Red Leaf City is one of the six major cities in Ningzhou, located in the southerner part of the East Pole Region. Ruled by the Great Qin Empire, the only empire in the Eastern Antarctic Regions, it is also a small and famous city in the entire empire, with a population of about three million. One hundred miles east of Red Leaf Castle, there is a forest of one-sixth of Ningzhou, the Red Leaf Forest.

Every autumn, the entire red leaf forest ripples in a sea of fire, many people come here, and this is just one of the points, the most important thing is that there are many demon beasts distributed in the red leaf forest, from the lowest first order to the tenth order demon beasts, you can find their footprints in the red leaf forest. There have even been people who have encountered legendary spirit animals. This is a place for warriors to explore, and every day there are many warriors who come and go in groups to and from the autumn leaf forest, or to collect medicinal herbs, or to hunt monsters.

The Xia family is one of the famous families in Red Leaf City. Together with the Xu family and the Wang family, it is listed as one of the three major families in Red Leaf City. Even if it's Momiji Castle

The city lord Qin Hongyu also wants to give the three major families a little bit of thin face, you can imagine the status of the Xia family in Red Leaf City! You must know that the entire East Pole Domain is ruled by the Qin Luo Empire, although not every city is controlled by the Qin family, just like the other two major cities in Ningzhou, Qin Hongyu is a direct member of the royal family, and for some reason, he took office as the city lord of Red Leaf City two years ago. His people have a big mind, and in the past two years, the Red Leaf City has been managed in an orderly manner and a prosperous scene.

"Heh" a low whirring sound came from far and near.

In the Xia family's martial arts arena, more than a dozen eleven or twelve-year-old teenagers were boiling their bodies over and over again under the scorching sun. The body refining technique was cultivated by them to the third to fourth order! On their immature cheeks, there was no naughtiness of their peers, only hard perseverance! I saw a young man with a small body and a black and red complexion, a pair of big eyes under the thick eyebrows were particularly energetic, and the upper body of ** was full of muscles, although he was immature but he was engrossed in practicing physical martial arts, and the young man was Xia Yang, the eldest grandson of Xia Dingtian, the head of the Xia family.

It is unbelievable that Xia Yang, who is only nine years old, has already cultivated to the peak of the fifth order, and he may break through to the sixth order at any time. And he has only been cultivating for half a year now, which has shocked many people! It can be seen that his qualifications cannot be ignored, and he is a rare martial arts wizard. Xia Yang never thinks that he has an advantage over others, and only by working hard all the time will he not be overtaken by others. In the eyes of outsiders, he is a cultivation genius, only he knows that every night he will practice alone in the woods in the back mountain for two hours. No matter the wind or rain, the summer sun has never stopped.

Refining the Body - It is a compulsory course for cultivators in the Extreme Heaven Continent. The Body Refining Technique cannot allow cultivators to sense the existence of aura, but it can give birth to another kind of energy in the body. It is similar to Gang Qi, but it does not have the lethality of Gang Qi, and it can only play a role in exercising the strength of the martial artist's body. The body refining technique is divided into ten levels, and from the first order to the third order, it is subdivided into the early stage of body refining, and this stage is mainly to temper the skin organs of the martial artist, so that the cultivator's own defense is several times or more than ten times higher than that of ordinary people! Ordinary blades cannot cause damage to the strong person who is training the body at all.

The fourth to sixth orders are the middle stage of body refining, and the martial artist is tempered at a higher level, strengthening the skeleton of the martial artist, so that the martial artist can withstand sharper attacks. The seventh to ninth orders are the late stage of physical training, which is the initial strengthening of the five internal organs of the human body, and the most vulnerable thing for human beings is the five internal organs.

The tenth level of the physical training realm is also known as the qi level. Many martial artists are stuck in the late stage of body refining, unable to perceive the existence of aura, and incorporate aura into the spiritual sea in their bodies, this kind of person can only be called an acquired martial artist.

Don't underestimate this kind of martial artist, some of them not only temper their ** to the point of being extremely strong, but also cultivate some martial arts to the peak realm, and the strong people of the Qi Condensation Realm may fall into the hands of these people.

At the end of the day's practice, Xia Yang was about to go to the Martial Arts Pavilion where the martial arts were stored, and choose a book suitable for his fingering martial arts cultivation. Then a red shadow flashed beside him. A voice as crisp as a yellow warbler came: "Brother Xia Yang, are you going to the Martial Arts Pavilion again?"

I saw that this girl had clear eyebrows, a pointed chin, cherry lips slightly open, long eyelashes flashing, and her eyes revealing elf eccentricity. It is the only daughter of the second uncle Xia Mingyi - Xia Yaoxue.

Caressing the little girl's hair dotingly, Xia Yang said: "Xue'er, I still have to go to the Martial Arts Pavilion, the annual hunting season is coming, I want to prepare, Xue'er, how far has the shadow footwork been cultivated, don't be lazy!"

Xia Yaoxue shook her head and said coquettishly: "No, I have already cultivated the human-level middle-level exercises and shadow footwork to a small age, and the Meteor Six Style Sword Technique, the first three styles I have already mastered, how is it, is it powerful?"

Then the little girl thought of something, and said coquettishly: "Of course, Xue'er can't be compared with Brother Xia Yang, Brother Xia Yang not only cultivates to Dacheng with human-level high-level footwork, but even Xiaoyao swordsmanship is close to Dacheng, no wonder everyone calls you a monster behind your back!"

Xia Yang smiled helplessly, and secretly sighed that others only saw the surface, but they didn't know the efforts they had put in behind their backs! Thinking of this, Xia Yang said goodbye to Xue'er and went straight to the Martial Arts Pavilion.

"Big brother, this kid Xia Yang is really a monster, how long has he been cultivating, he has already reached the peak of the fifth order!" It was Xia Yuan, the youngest grandson of Xia Wenhao, the younger brother of the Xia Ding Heavenly Clan, who was cultivating in the early stage of the sixth order of body training. The young man next to him is Xia Ye, the young man has a slender body, a pair of sword eyebrows exuding a heroic spirit, and he is wearing a blue robe, like a cloudy son. Cultivation is in the middle of the sixth order of body refining, and he can step into the peak of the sixth order at any time, and he can reach this step by cultivating at this age, which shows that this son's cultivation talent is also the best choice.

"Second brother, talent is just a point of success, it's too early to say anything, no one can comment on future achievements, you have to work hard, otherwise let other disciples catch up, then you will look good!" Xia Ye ignored the opinions of others, and secretly said in his heart, the future is too far away, let time prove it!"

Xia Yang looked up at the inconspicuous attic in front of him, and couldn't help but lose his mind.

On the plaque of the attic, there are three quite ancient fonts of "Wuji Pavilion", the plaque is slightly yellow, and the ravine on the plaque shows the vicissitudes of the years.

This pavilion is the most important place of the Xia family: the Martial Arts Pavilion!!

All the cultivation exercises collected by the family over the centuries are stored here, and these exercises are the guarantee of the Xia family's current status.

As the most important place in the family, the defense here is extremely tight, and it is basically listed as a forbidden place on weekdays, even if it is from the family, it is forbidden to enter without permission. Only those who have cultivated to the fourth level of the body refining technique are eligible to enter, and it is only open once a month. Therefore, the qualified clansmen will not miss this opportunity!

Squinting slightly, his gaze swept over some dark corners around the attic, and his keen observation made Xia Yang understand that their every move here was fully watched by the guards hidden in the shadows

"I've already said the rules for entering the Martial Arts Pavilion many times, and I won't repeat them now. In short, when you enter the Martial Arts Pavilion, within an hour, everyone must come out! There is also the saying that everyone can only take one kind of exercise or martial art, and you can't take more than you want, and you can't chew too much, and I warned you when you first came into contact with cultivation. If someone has a private possession of exercises or martial arts, they will be disqualified from obtaining martial arts. So, you have to pay attention!" Standing on the high steps, Pavilion Elder Xiao Yuanshan glanced at the group of young men and girls below with a majestic gaze, and said with a serious face.

"Yes!" many teenagers shouted excitedly, looking at the slightly ordinary attic with burning eyes, being able to find a better exercise or martial art, and being able to make themselves ahead of others at the start, this has always been the most desired thing in the hearts of all clansmen.

"Now that we know the rules, let's get started. ”

Xiao Yuanshan nodded with satisfaction, took a step back, and let go of the stone platform standing in front of the pavilion, the stone platform was about one meter or so, and in the center of the stone platform, a disk-shaped mechanism was placed, and after turning it in what way, in a dull crunch, slowly pushed open the dark gray stone door.

In the study of the head of the family, the contemporary head of the family Xia Dingtian and the second brother Xia Wenhao, the eldest son Xia Houming and the second son Xia Mingyi are making arrangements for the annual autumn hunt. Dressed in coarse linen clothes for practice, his eyes flashed, and his face full of majesty was full of smiles, this person's cultivation was the highest among everyone, and he was in the late Guyuan period, this person was the head of the Xia family, Xia Dingtian, one of the five masters of Red Leaf City, and the other four people were headed by Qin Hongyu, the city lord of Red Leaf City, and his cultivation was also at the peak of the late Guyuan period. The other two are Xu Maoxiong, the head of the Xu family, and Wang Luo, the head of the Wang family. The cultivation is second only to the two, and he is also a peak powerhouse in the middle of Guyuan, and he may become a powerhouse in the late Guyuan period at any time.

There is a person next to him, who is seven points similar to the old man, but it is the eldest son of the old man, Xiahou Ming. I saw that this person had a dignified body and a dignified appearance. A pair of eyes are shining, and the two curved eyebrows are like paint brushes. It is known as the first day of Red Leaf City, and its cultivation is at its peak in the early days of Guyuan. Xia Minghou, who was only thirty years old, was ranked at the end of the five masters of Red Leaf City, and even if he was placed in Ningzhou, he was one of the rare geniuses.

"Father, there is still a month before the autumn hunting period, and my Xia family was slightly better than the Xu family and the Wang family during the previous hunting, which led to the Xu and Wang families faintly forming an alliance later. This hunt is even more unfavorable to my Xia family, and I think the city lord will also sit and watch the three families fight and will not interfere. Xia Houming said to his father with a worried face.

Hearing what his son said, the old man's face straightened, and he sighed: "Hou Ming is not in a hurry to do this, if the Xu and Wang families are really in alliance, maybe the father will be afraid of them, but if you want to really form an alliance, it is not an overnight thing, and this matter is not in a hurry." How is Yang'er's cultivation lately?"

"Yes, big brother, the water will cover the earth, and the soldiers will block it. My Xia family is not easy to get along with! The eldest brother gave birth to a good son, and at a young age, he was already a fifth-order cultivator, and breaking through the sixth-order was just around the corner! Unlike my girl, who had just reached the fourth-order. Xia Mingyi said.

"Haha, the second brother laughed, Xue'er's cultivation speed is also good. Yang'er is also angry, and has never disappointed me in cultivation, but she has suffered this child and lost her mother. Xia Houming was very relieved when he thought of his son's efforts since he began to cultivate, but the trace of sadness in his eyes could not be erased.

Xia Dingtian looked at his son and sighed in his heart, and the atmosphere was a little solemn for a while. Then he said: "Next month's hunting, Yang'er, Yaoxue, Ye'er, and Yuan'er will participate, as the younger generation of the Xia family, they will not grow up without experiencing killing." ”

"Big brother, I've heard a lot of rumors recently, saying that there are traces of the top-level demon beast Explosive Flame Tiger on the periphery of the Red Leaf Forest, I don't know what happened in the depths of the Red Leaf Forest that caused the high-level demon beast to appear on the periphery?" Xia Wenhao said worriedly. As a top demon beast second only to spirit beasts, it is definitely a nightmare for martial artists in the body refining period, even if it is a ninth-order body training realm powerhouse at the same level, it is not an opponent of the Flame Explosion Tiger, only those tenth-order qi powerhouses who are born in the spirit sea in the body can barely compete with it, but if they want to kill the Explosive Flame Tiger, the possibility is still very small.

"What the second brother is worried about is not unreasonable. In this matter, I will conduct a carpet search of the periphery of the Red Leaf Forest with the two heads of the Xu and Wang families in the early stage of the hunt, and once we find any traces of the Flame Burst Tiger, we will kill it immediately. "In the eyes of a solid vitality powerhouse, not to mention a small ninth-order demon beast, even a tenth-order spirit beast can't make much waves. It can be seen that the strong man in the Guyuan period is terrible!

In the Martial Arts Pavilion, Xia Yang came to the bookshelf of fingering cheats, looked at the slightly rough bookshelf, and neatly placed seven finger martial arts in the bookshelf. Outside, every martial art will attract a lot of martial artists to peep. In the world of martial artists, you can see killings everywhere, because even if it is an ordinary martial art or exercise, the bloody case caused by it will cause at least hundreds or thousands of casualties among martial artists, which is simply incredible in the eyes of ordinary people!

After all, you don't know if the opponent's martial arts will restrain your martial arts when you fight the enemy. And the battle of the same level of martial artists will often become an overwhelming victory because of this little advantage, and defeat means death.

Xia Yang was looking for a fingering technique suitable for his own cultivation, in order to have one more means to save his life when hunting, no one would think that one more means was useless.

Finger exercises, the emphasis is on concentrating all the strength of the body, condensing it into one point, causing a moment of explosive power, even if the enemy's level is higher than one's, or the body's defense is stronger than one's, it can cause serious damage to the opponent. Therefore, the requirements for cultivators are also relatively high, because the first requirement of the finger exercises is to condense the energy of the body, if the physical constitution is not strong, how to compress it?

Carefully looking at the exercise book called "King Kong Finger" in his hand, Xia Yang frowned slightly, the cultivation requirements of "King Kong Finger" are very high, and the attack power is relatively strong, the only deficiency is that it will cause the user to greatly reduce their agility when using the King Kong Finger, if it is a single opponent, it will undoubtedly become a powerful means, but when there are too many enemies, using the King Kong Finger will become the wrong choice. Put down the "Vajra Finger" and pick up another book of exercises called "Flower Fingers", from the exercises, it can be seen that this is a fingering book suitable for women to practice. Looking through the content inside, I helplessly found that this is a book of exercises suitable for women's cultivation.

Shaking his head, Xia Yang sighed in his heart, it is not easy to find a martial art that suits him. Think of the price that others pay when they kill people or explore ruins or forbidden areas for how to get a copy of the exercises. Xia Yang already knew the advantages of being born into a family.

Since he has an advantage that ordinary people don't have, Xia Yang's heart of wanting to be a strong man is even more determined. Unexpectedly, there was a slight increase in his mood at this moment, which surprised Xia Yang.

Tightened the finger cheats in his hand, slightly lost his eyes, in a very inconspicuous place, unexpectedly found a book covered by debris, only to see that the surroundings were full of debris, it can be seen that this place has not been cleaned for a long time. Xia Yang also inadvertently saw that there was a vigorous and quaint word "finger" on the cover, so he focused his attention here. Slowly walked around the corner and picked up this slightly old book among the miscellaneous items.

I saw that on the cover, the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing depicted five simple and atmospheric ancient characters. A majestic momentum emanated from these words. Looking at this exercise called "Pointing the Star Finger and the First Volume", Xia Yang's originally calm mood suddenly had an inexplicable touch. This turned out to be a crippled cheatbook, I don't know if I can cultivate it? Xia Yang looked at it suspiciously.
