Chapter 3: Practice
"Then, from now on, you are Chu Ming. ”
Wu Xie, who thought he knew the whole thing in general, glanced at the young man on the stone bed and spoke.
"I'm ...... Chu Ming?" Although the young man didn't know what was going on, he also knew that he seemed to be involved in something, and it seemed that he was being used as a stand-in by someone, but what was clearer was that he must not show his feet now, otherwise he might not even be qualified to be a stand-in.
As soon as he thought of this, he calmly raised his head, looked at Wu Xie, and asked, "Can I trouble you and explain the current situation." ”
"If you don't know anything, will you come to be a substitute for the dead ghost?" Glancing at the young man with pity, Wu Xie said: "The place where you are now is an ancient city, a testing ground, and a monument in the Yellow Sand Desert.
Of course, this so-called 'talent' does not refer to a certain aspect, but to the 'talent' of various aspects, but here, everything is premised on being able to live. ”
"Will you live?" the boy whispered.
"That's right, although the ancient city is a testing ground, there are also ruins and organic fate, but it is more about killing, so this trial, unless you are born with a spirit body, even if you are extremely talented, you must survive here to have a future, only the last person to survive will have the qualification to enter the eyes of the deacons of the Shensha Palace today. Wu Xie glanced at the young man and said, "And you, Chu Ming, are now one of the trialists. ”
Wu Xie looked at the young man, smiled meaningfully, and said: "All the resources in the desert are limited, and the path of martial arts is even more cruel, if you can be selected to join the big forces, you will definitely be able to get more resources and go further on this road." ”
"I see, I see. When the young man heard this, he nodded as if he had accepted his fate.
"The ancient city is very large, divided into two cities, the inner and outer cities, and now the most dangerous in this ancient city is the inner city, because there are more opportunities there. Wu Xie looked at the young man, smiled disdainfully, and said: "This is an outer city, resources are scarce, no one will come here, you can stay here with peace of mind these days, finally, I wish you ...... Able to live. After saying that, Wu Xie turned around and left the stone house.
"Thank you!"
The young man suddenly spoke, his tone was calm, but Wu Xie's footsteps were stunned, silent for a while, and then he flicked his sleeves, and two things fell into the young man's arms.
The young man looked up, and Wu Xie's figure had disappeared.
Looking down at the books and porcelain vase in his hand, the book said 'Bao Yuan Gong', and the porcelain vase was pasted with 'Forging Pills', the young man smiled, "This is a ...... Mercy?"
When the boy woke up, his mind was blank, he didn't remember anything, all his memories were blank, but fortunately, his mind was still clear and his thinking was very clear, but judging from the conversation with Wu Xie just now, his current situation seemed to be not good.
"Is my name Chu Ming now?" the young man said to himself, then laughed self-deprecatingly, and said, "Although I really want to figure out everything, it seems that the most important thing at the moment is to live!"
Open the book, the beginning is some introduction, the realm of cultivation is not very detailed, only the description of the two realms of 'forging body' and 'refining qi' in the martial arts foundation building chapter, and there is the threshold that blocks between ordinary people and martial artists, which is the so-called 'physical disability'.
The physical obstacle is a layer of shackles, locking the potential of ordinary people's physical bodies, if you want to practice and become a martial artist, you need to break the physical barrier first and break this shackle.
And the disability is a different thing, some people may not be able to break through the barrier in their lifetime, but some people are born without this shackle, this difference, that is, the so-called gap between mediocrity and genius.
Martial arts, you need to temper your body first, strengthen your body, this stage is the 'forging realm', and then condense the blood and qi, which is the so-called 'practicing qi realm', but Wu Xie left him only a detailed introduction to the forging realm, and there is not much introduction to the realm of 'practicing qi realm'.
The forging body realm is mainly to boil the body, this realm is divided into nine layers, the first three are to refine the skin and flesh, the middle three to strengthen the muscles and bones, and the last three to nourish the five organs, when the body is boiled to the extreme, the body will breed internal breath and form true qi, which is the so-called 'practicing qi realm'.
There are many ways to boil the body, one of the mildest and most effective ways is to take a medicinal bath to warm up the body from an early age, and the effect is also the most significant, and with a superior exercise, the cultivation will get twice the result with half the effort, but this method is expensive, not to mention the value of the superior exercise, but the cost of each medicinal bath is not something that ordinary people can afford.
Poor and rich in martial arts, medicinal baths are a way that only rich people can enjoy, and ordinary people almost use the most simple and crude way to boil their bodies, to put it bluntly, they are beaten.
This method also requires a long time of perseverance, and it is very harmful to the body, and generally people who exercise in this way will not go far on the cultivation path, and their lifespan will be much shorter than that of martial artists in the same realm.
As for the exercises, the most vulgar low-grade exercises in the realm of forging the body, although they are not as common as they are everywhere on the streets, they are not difficult to get.
Another way is to use pills to stimulate the potential of the body, this way can allow ordinary people to step into the body forging realm in a short time, this way is very dangerous, but it can be achieved quickly, and there are no sequelae.
However, not to mention whether ordinary people can afford the value of the pill, just to say that with the physical strength of ordinary people, if they can't withstand the powerful medicinal power contained in the pill, they may not have stepped into the forging realm, and their body will already be shattered, so ordinary people would rather choose to be beaten in this way, and few people will choose to take the pill in a domineering way to cultivate.
The 'Holding Yuan Gong' left by Wu Xie to Chu Ming is also a top-grade exercise in the body forging realm, and you can practice until you practice qi realm, and then you have to find another exercise to continue cultivating.
And the 'Forging Muscle Pill' is also very valuable to the martial artists of the Forging Body Realm, it is a great medicine to boil the body, and more importantly, the Forging Muscle Pill can help ordinary people forcibly break their own shackles and break the physical barrier, although it is dangerous to break through the physical barrier in this way, but it is exactly what he needs most at the moment.
"The trial of the ancient city, a game of life and death? Hehe, as an ordinary person, it is impossible to survive. Chu Ming closed the book, picked up the porcelain vase beside him, and said with a smile: "I don't seem to have a choice." ”
Uncorked the bottle and poured it gently, a dark red pill rolled down into his palm, and without any hesitation, Chu Ming directly threw the pill into his mouth.
......
In the ancient city, Wu Xie walked on the dilapidated streets with a calm face, he didn't know why he left a pill for Chu Ming, maybe he found that the young man was just an ordinary person who had not cultivated, or when he turned around, the young man's 'thank you'?
"It was I who handed over that thing to the original Chu Ming, so that he had a chance to escape from the ancient city, and he could be exchanged for him, speaking of which, he was also indirectly sent in by me, those two things, just take it as compensation, maybe we won't survive this trial." Wu Xie smiled self-deprecatingly, found an unreliable reason for himself, and then disappeared into the night.
