Chapter 2 The Rhino Ascends
The Dragon Palace is located in the deepest part of the West Sea, arranged in a circular shape, covering an area of 1,800 acres, from the inside to the outside, it is the palace of the king, the inner hall, the outer hall, and the side hall in turn.
His Royal Highness has set up the Wisdom Palace, the Dragon Dwelling, and the Lingmu Pavilion, which is the place where the Dragon King discusses major matters, lives, and cultivates.
Under the inner hall, there are the Metropolitan Guard Mansion, the Patrol Table, the Military Management Office, the Pill Pillage Hall, the Thousand Fu Fang, the Formation Pavilion, the Casting Division, the Five Car Pavilion, and the Princely Court. In addition to the five-car pavilion, they are all the center of power.
Under the outer hall, there are Jingwu Temple, Leyu Room, Lianxing Pavilion, Wang Zhuyuan, and Political Division.
The area of the side hall is the largest, accounting for nearly half of the entire Dragon Palace, and there are miscellaneous rooms and garrison camps under it.
In the Wang Conferral Courtyard where Xi Xiao went, the tutors were divided into upper teachers, respected teachers, and holy teachers.
Follow the teacher to learn, take a hundred years as the maximum period, and if you can't step into the deep sea realm within a hundred years, you will be expelled from the Dragon Palace and exiled to the borderlands, where there are not only princes, but also children of families with different talents.
"Hey.." When Xi Xiao thought of this, he felt guilty.
Coming to the simple and thick Wang Zhuyuan, bypassing a few corridors, and walking into a small courtyard in the corner, Xi Xiao saw a rhinoceros dressed in a pale purple round-necked robe and a tough body, sitting in the living room with his eyes closed.
"I haven't seen you for a few years, and it seems that a lot has changed. Hearing the sound of footsteps, the professor opened his eyes, stroked the goat's white beard, and stared at the West with a large number of eyes.
"Professor, am I particularly stupid?"
"Didn't I tell you to suspend the cultivation of the Nayuan Technique and specialize in the method of holding the breath and purifying the pulse?" A trace of helplessness flashed in the old man's eyes.
"I strictly obey the teacher's orders, and in the past four years, I have only practiced the method of closing the breath and washing the pulse. ”
"Then how did you get into the late stage of the Shallow Sea Dual Realm?" the old man's tone began to become stern.
"I'm telling the truth!"
"Okay, you come forward first. The superior stretched out his hand and gestured.
"Are you sure?"
"Sure. ”
As soon as the words fell, the professor raised his right hand and slapped it towards his chest with a slap, Xi Xiao didn't have time to react at all, his head buzzed, he stepped back seven or eight steps, and sat on the ground with his butt.
"Professor, you?!" Xi Xiao was surprised.
"Haha.. You didn't fool me.." Shang Zhi said with a smile, got up and helped Xi Xiao up.
"In just four years, your muscles and bones are strong and you have completed the foundation. ”
"Looks like we're finally coming to the fore. "Bestow joy in the form of color.
"But the old man should ask you. ”
"Speak, please. ”
"With your qualifications, I didn't have any hope at first, but this time I saw you, and I judged it like two people. ”
"Na Yuan has stopped, but the cultivation is not slow but fast, is there a noble person to help?"
"Every time I pass out after taking poison, my divine consciousness can clearly feel the existence of the essence of the sea, and I don't know why. Xi Xiao didn't hide it.
"Oh.." Stone's head was conferred and he fell into deep thought.
"It's hard to get to the bottom of a cultivating, but no matter what, it's a good thing. After a while, the professor seemed to be talking to himself, and he seemed to be talking to Xixiao.
"Thinking about my defense flow, the cultivation process is extremely difficult, it is difficult to achieve results in the short term, and there is no shortcut, and if you are not careful, your cultivation will be completely wasted, which is much more difficult than practicing other exercises, and it is withering day by day..."
"For a hundred years, you are the only one in the Wang Academy who has cultivated the Defense Stream, and to have the current realm, you must have been on the verge of life and death several times, it is really difficult for you. ”
"In the future, the old man will do his best to help the prince gain a firm foothold in the Dragon Palace of the West Sea and reinvigorate the defense flow!"
"This is a body protection pill, taken before going to bed, it can quickly remove residual toxins from the body, repair the damage of the internal organs, and if it is not enough, come to me again. The professor took out two small printed porcelain vases from his cuffs and handed them over.
"Also, you can consider having both techniques, and the overall strength will be qualitatively improved. In your identity, the intermediate techniques of the Five Cars Pavilion can be read at will, and I don't recommend the specific exercises, depending on the prince's preferences, but remember not to be greedy!"
Xi Xiao said goodbye to the professor and walked towards the five-car pavilion in the inner hall.
Through the map of the Dragon Palace, Xixiao knows that the five-car pavilion is a tower cone-shaped structure, which is divided into five layers.
The first floor has the largest area and the largest collection of books, with a total of 30 book houses, which record the topography of the vast sea area, anecdotes, and strategies for controlling people.
There are sixteen rooms on the second floor, which collects all kinds of basic exercises.
The third layer is nine rooms, which are equipped with the intermediate exercises of the Dragon Palace, and only the dragon bloodline and people above the captain are allowed to enter.
There are seven rooms on the fourth floor, and the exercises of the superior are placed, and you can enter above the command level.
The fifth layer of the crown prince can enter, and the best exercises can be placed.
As soon as Xi Xiao stepped into the Wuche Pavilion, he saw a middle-aged man in brocade with a fat head and big ears.
"Do you know who I am?" the man asked.
"Commander-in-chief, down there." Xi Xiao caught a glimpse of the waist card of the comer.
"You are derelict in your duty!" the man directly interrupted Xi Xiao, "Although the inner hall is heavily guarded, you are the deputy commander of the Five Vehicles Pavilion, and you must be on duty seven days a month according to the law, why haven't I seen you in ten years?!
"I'm sorry, I'm cultivating, in the future.."
"You deserve to say the word cultivation!" the man interrupted again, walked briskly, and looked down at Xi Xiao, full of wine.
"Tut, Dual Realm, do you practice the exercises? Do you know how to control the essence element? A waste who doesn't understand the rules!"
"I've heard people talk about you like that, each other!"
"You!!" the man glared angrily.
"It's really a wild miscellaneous fish who has no mother's teaching, and dares to make such a mistake in front of the elders!"
"Now, get down on your knees and apologize, or don't blame me for being rude. The man gritted his teeth.
"Fighting is strictly forbidden in the palace!" Xi Xiao sneered.
"Dare to go to the martial arts training ground? so arrogant, I want to know, why are you!"
"Yes, but let's make a bet first. ”
"How to bet?"
"You can't use blades in the game, I won't be on duty from now on!
"If you lose, you're at your disposal!"
"Okay, okay, that's it. The man was afraid that Xi Xiao would regret it, so he hurriedly responded.
The two of them came to the Dragon Palace Circular Martial Arts Training Ground one after the other, and there were a total of seventeen spherical wall covers of different sizes on the field.
Explaining his intentions, the deacon squid spirit took out two blue beads the size of broad beans and reiterated the rules of the martial arts competition to the two.
The seventeen wall covers in the martial arts training ground are all blessed by formations, and according to the degree of solidity, ten are used for shallow sea realm competitions, five are used for deep sea realms, and the remaining two are against the sea realm.
The deacon has a round of eyeballs, which can be held under the tongue to enter the wall covering.
During the fight, one side admits defeat, bites the eyeballs of the array, and will be quickly removed from the wall cover, if both sides insist, until one side dies, the battle can be terminated, and the outside world is not allowed to intervene.
"That's it!" The middle-aged man put his eyes in his mouth, chose the smallest spherical wall cover and walked in, looking back at Xi Xiao defiantly.
Xi Xiao hesitated a little, as the other party said, he really didn't have time to practice the exercises, although it was a shallow sea double realm, but he didn't know how to manipulate the essence to resist the enemy, but the other party was already a quadruple realm, and the more he thought about it, the lower the chance of winning.
"Why? Don't dare to fight? It's too late to kneel down and beg for mercy now. The middle-aged man scoffed.
Hearing this, Xi Xiao was furious, "Even if I die here, I won't beg for mercy!"
"Look at the punch!" As soon as Xi Xiao stepped into the hood, he suddenly launched an attack on the handy, waving his right fist and rushing towards his cheek.
Xi Xiao was startled and turned sideways, but the opponent's left fist had already run to the abdomen.
With a muffled sound, Xi Xiao was knocked out by this gravity.
"Haha, slut, humiliate yourself. The man laughed.
Xi Xiao felt unbearable abdominal pain, covered his stomach, gritted his teeth and stood up with difficulty.
Just as he was about to stand firm, the middle-aged man ran in front of him again, kicked Xi Xiao with one kick, and hit Xi Xiao with a heavy fist in a row, making a series of "bang, bang" sounds.
After dozens of punches, looking at Xi Xiao lying motionless on the ground, the man couldn't help but laugh wildly again.
"Haha, I knew you were weak, I didn't expect you to be so weak, admit defeat!"
"I haven't started yet. Xi Xiao, who had a blue nose and swollen face, got up with difficulty, stretched out his tongue and licked the blood from the corners of his mouth, smiled, and rushed head-on.
"Look for death!" The man wanted to stop there, but he didn't expect the other party to know what to do, and his luck focused on his right fist and struck out towards the chest of Xi Xiao, who was rushing.
Xi Xiao was already more than three feet shorter than the opponent, and his arm length was one foot shorter than the opponent, and he also punched out, and the result can be imagined.
"Bang!" Xi Xiao was hit again, but he was already prepared in his heart, trying his best to stabilize his body, but he was still rubbed back by this gravity and took five or six steps back.
"If you insist on standing, I will fight you until you lie down!" The man saw that Xi Xiao had not fallen, and roared angrily and continued to attack.
The sound of fist strikes sounded one after another, and Xi Xiao was knocked back five or six steps, but he still did not fall, and rushed towards the man again with a bloody face.
"Defense Flow?!" The man was a little stunned, being beaten like this by his own heavy fist, ordinary people are afraid that they would have already broken their whole body, and the guy on the other side even seemed to be able to attack.
"It's time to get a bang.." The man's face was gloomy and he began to wave his fists one after another.
After a quarter of the incense, the man was already out of breath, looking at Xi Xiao all over his body, being repelled by himself again and again, and still unrelentingly charging at himself again and again.
With a "bang", Xi Xiao saw the opportunity, dodged the other party's heavy blow and went straight to the door, leaned closely, and swung his right fist firmly on the opponent's chin.
"Ouch!" the man fell to the ground.
Xi Xiao pounced forward, rode on the man, and slammed his fist at his brain.
"Stop. Stop.. Ouch.. I throw in the towel... Ouch.. Stop fighting.." After a stick of incense, the man began to plead.
Xi Xiao turned a deaf ear and still shook his fist hard!
After half a pillar of incense, the middle-aged man had been beaten and bleeding, and kept crying wolf, seeing that Xi Xiao still refused to give up, and before his consciousness was completely trance, he hurriedly bit the eyeballs in his mouth.
"Boom!", and the man was instantly removed from the wall cover.
Seeing this, Xi Xiao was stunned, and he also bit his eyes and moved out.
"You madman!" said the middle-aged man, clutching his cheeks.
"You've lost!" Xi Xiao grinned, squeezed out the words, turned around and limped out of the arena.
