In this world, most of the monks developed relatively quickly, especially Chu Xuan, although he was only fourteen years old, he was already almost the same size as an adult man.

Perhaps it was the reason why he was tired of being with Liu Xuan all day in the past two years, Chu Xuan's mind on cultivation had been slackened a lot, so that two years had passed, and his cultivation had not been able to advance to the Earth Yuan Realm in one fell swoop as the two masters expected, but had been stopping at the Great Heavenly Spirit Realm, and there was no sign of a breakthrough.

However, Chu Xuan didn't think so, with his current cultivation, looking at the entire younger generation of Nanjianmen, he was afraid that the number of people who could be compared with him would not exceed one palm. Moreover, in the past two years, his hidden veins have opened up again, and with three hidden veins, Chu Xuan is confident that as long as he wants, he can break through to the Diyuan Realm at any time.

...

In the main hall of Li Shouyi's thatched hut, Chu Xuan, Li Shouyi and the old madman gathered together, but they were playing chess.

Because the old madman's chess skills were too poor, Li Shouyi was very disgusted, so he only let him watch the battle from the sidelines, and he played with his apprentices.

Although the old madman was unhappy, he didn't say anything, after all, this was in the junior brother's house. While watching the two play against each other, he babbled endlessly.

"Apprentice, this year's martial arts time has been set, just next month, are you ready? If you are not ready, you must hurry up and prepare. Also, what do you think of the set of Swift Wind and Thunder Hands that the teacher passed you last time?

Chu Xuan was too busy to pay attention to him, so he said perfunctorily: "Well, okay, okay." ”

The old madman said again: "By the way, this time Shen Tianyi's retreat is over, and he must participate in the competition, you have to be careful." That kid's cultivation has always been on par with you, this time to break through, it is likely that he has already entered the small land yuan realm, such a strong enemy, tsk, I have to guard against it. ”

Chu Xuan was speechless, so he had to nod vigorously and say yes.

At the other end of the chessboard, Li Shouyi was killed more than a dozen people unexpectedly, and seeing the situation take a sharp turn for the worse, he was so angry that he scolded the old madman: "Stinky old thief, it's really hateful, a person has been rambling for so long, and there is no end?"

The old madman was stunned for a moment, and retorted: "Isn't the old man talking about business, junior brother, how can you talk about me like this, this is too much......

Chu Xuan saw that the two were arguing, so he hurriedly stopped to be a peacemaker, and persuaded: "Don't hurt the harmony of the two masters, you have something to say, you have something to say." ”

He turned his head to the old madman and said, "Master, don't worry, what level Shen Tianyi is, the disciple knows it in his heart." Not to mention that I don't know if he has arrived in the Diyuan Realm yet, even if he has really arrived, I am afraid of what he will do. ”

Chu Xuan was confident in saying such things, in the past two years, Nanjianmen held two more martial arts meetings, the first time because he wanted to retreat and cultivate, he missed, so he let Shen Tianyi win the first place, and the second time it was the opposite, catching up with Shen Tianyi's retreat and breaking the rank, allowing Chu Xuan to win the first place.

After winning the first place, Chu Xuan not only received a large number of heavenly and earthly treasures as a reward, but also was allowed to enter the forbidden land of the Southern Sword Gate, Tianyi Pavilion, and choose a secret book suitable for his cultivation among the vast sea of thousands of secret books.

All the secrets in Tianyi Pavilion have been sealed, if you don't break the seal, ordinary people can't open it at all, you can only judge from the cover and name of the secret, the content contained in this secret book is a technique, a body method, or a formation, superior, medium, or inferior.

You can only pick one secret book, and when you leave the cabinet, there will be a special person to search, and if anyone dares to steal, they will be expelled from the division immediately. And only when those who enter the cabinet choose the secret and walk out of the Tianyi Pavilion, the seal in the secret will be automatically lifted.

Before entering Tianyi Pavilion last time, Li Shouyi and the old madman repeatedly reminded him that the more gorgeous the cover and the more pompous the name, the lower the content recorded in it.

Chu Xuan listened to the advice of the two old guys, and after making repeated choices, he came back with a tattered secret book called "Nine Links".

Looking at this name, Chu Xuan originally thought it was his own method, and he didn't want to go out of Tianyi Pavilion and open the secret book, but found that this book was both like a body method and a technique. I went back and asked the two old men, but the two old men couldn't tell me why.

However, in the following days, Chu Xuan practiced hard according to the content contained in the book, but found that this was actually a combination of his own method and technique, and at this time, he was finally sure that he had found a treasure.

Nine Rings, as the name suggests, are divided into nine stages when practiced, and each section has a different power.

The biggest feature of this method is that it can be used as a technique and the technique as a body.

In other words, when he uses his body to get close to his opponent, he no longer has to concentrate on using spiritual power to use techniques, because he can export spiritual power to attack the enemy with only his body method.

On the other hand, when the user derives the spiritual power to launch the technique, it is equivalent to using the body technique, which can quickly approach the enemy and launch an attack.

As for ordinary secrets, the body method and the technique are separated, and when the monk uses the body method to get close to the enemy, he also needs to export the spiritual power activation technique. Compared with the Nine Rings, this process not only consumes more spiritual power, but also affects the performance of body techniques and techniques.

Ever since he had the Nine Rings, Chu Xuan knew for the first time that the original body method and technique could still be combined to practice, which made him feel as if he had discovered a new world.

After his unremitting efforts, he can now play the nine consecutive rings to the fifth stage. In order to test the power of the fifth stage, he had gone to the mountain behind the Nanjian Gate and tried his hand on a boulder, and with just one blow, the boulder was kicked into powder by him at will. This is of course because of the fierceness and profundity of "Nine Rings", but it is also because the cultivation of Lord Chu Xuan's spiritual realm is not the same as before.

...

The old madman listened to Chu Xuan's words, closed his mouth stupidly, and said no more, Chu Xuan turned his head and played chess with Li Shou again.

In order to take care of Li Shouyi's face, Chu Xuan deliberately let him have a lot of children this time, and let him do the overall situation, which is equivalent to letting him win in vain.

Li Shouyi didn't see that the apprentice was deliberately letting himself, and thought that he was a good chess player, so he immediately stroked his white beard and boasted to the old madman:

"Haha, old thief, do you see it? Do you have the ability to do this? The old man simply pulled back a dead game of chess. ”

The old madman could see that Chu Xuan was deliberately letting Li Shouyi, he smacked his lips, but he didn't say anything, lest the other party get into a fight with him again.

After winning Chu Xuan's game, Li Shouyi's interest increased greatly, and he had to fight him again. Chu Xuan couldn't, so he had to accompany him to continue until late at night......
