Chapter 52: Leisurely Steps
Youkyo didn't give everyone more opportunities to speak, and hurried away under the wrapping of the giant sword formed by the energy.
When his figure disappeared from the end of sight, Li Luo withdrew his gaze and looked at his body excitedly.
Hua Lin stepped forward and patted his sturdy chest: "Your turtle shell is really perverted, if you practice this kung fu, won't you be invincible in the world in the future?"
"It is people who are invincible in the world, not exercises. Instructor Hao Bo spoke up, and his tone was quite stern: "If there is really an invincible exercise, then why would Admiral Lu Ming be forced into a desperate situation and use his soul technique, causing the realm to fall?
"Forehead ......"
Hua Lin's face instantly twisted into a bitter gourd shape, and he complained: "Instructor, your words are too shocking!"
Instructor Hao Bo ignored him at all, and urged sharply: "Don't talk nonsense, the three of you eat right now, then rest, and start cultivating on time tomorrow morning!"
"Yes!"
The dinner was very rich, eating the fifth-level Demon Beast Mangtu Niu, which was not only rich in abundant energy, but also tender and delicious, and those side dishes were of course all spiritual grass and spiritual roots, and even much better than the food of the rookie camp and the recruit camp, but Li Luo was already not surprised, even if one day in the future, high-grade elixirs such as Tianlong Grass appeared in the recipe, he probably wouldn't feel anything anymore.
Li Luo at the table never talked about any etiquette, gobbled up, didn't eat until he was full, and never stopped, but when he was full, with a "bang", his whole head smashed directly on the dining table, and he fell asleep.
The other people seemed to have been used to it, and they still talked and laughed, but they didn't see it.
At half past three in the morning the next day, Li Luo opened his eyes on time, and at this time he was already sleeping on the bed as usual, which was naturally brought in by Instructor Hao Bo.
After a brief and quick wash, he hurried to the open space outside the small base, ready to start a new day of training, but what he didn't expect was that not only the two instructors Hao Bo and Fengyu were already waiting here, but even Admiral Youjing was there.
"Report to the instructor, report to General Youjing, recruit Li Luo to report!"
Ukyo didn't speak, just nodded lightly and threw out a book.
Li Luo took a look at it and immediately felt deeply ashamed.
"General, I'm sorry for your trouble!"
"It's not just trouble!" Instructor Hao Bo took over with a serious expression: "Do you know what it means to exchange your points for other people's items? Linglong Pagoda has the power of its own rules, and General Youjing has to bear at least ...... for this."
"Hao Bo!" Youjing frowned and interrupted: "There is no point in saying this!"
Hao Bo opened his mouth, but after all, he didn't say anything more, and stood up straight respectfully.
Youjing then turned his head: "Now there are three months left before the Four Prisons Challenge, and you must practice the "Hundred Mountains" to the fullest during this time, forming eighty ghosts!"
"General, I will do my best!" Li Luo replied with a full heart.
Ukyo seemed to have something on his mind, and he was not as happy as he was yesterday, and after a pause, he said again: "However, even then you will definitely not win, and you are still my biggest worry at the moment." ”
Li Luo's heart suddenly burst, and before he could answer, Instructor Hao Bo had already rushed urgently: "General, with Li Luo's situation, you can't win after practicing "Hundred Heavy Mountains"?"
"Can't win!" Youjing shook his head, looking very sure: "I just got the latest news last night, the other three major prisons have emerged a lot of geniuses among these two batches of students, I saw some videos, Li Luo is not their opponent, after all, the start is too late, and the comprehensive combat strength is too far behind!"
"What then, if you lose, purgatory will ......"
Hao Bo was rarely anxious, and he could see that he had unparalleled loyalty to Purgatory, and the wind next to him was also pale, and he lowered his head and kept silent.
"I discussed with Luo Tao last night, all we can do now is to give up fighting for the top two, strive for the third place, and suppress the weakest Hell Training Camp, so that at least the existence of the Purgatory Training Camp can be preserved!" Youjing said, his brows furrowed even tighter. "The problem now is that three of the six people selected by Purgatory have a good chance of winning, but the other two plus Li Luo have a very small chance of winning, so it is very likely to be a tie with the Hell Training Camp, so it is equivalent to the bottom of the tie, and our Purgatory Training Camp will be disbanded. ”
Fengyu's expression changed, and he sighed helplessly: "It would be good if Shi Wenlong was not a member of the Shi family, he would definitely be able to win with his ability!"
"Among the three people I said who have a bigger victory, Shi Wenlong has been counted!" Youjing said lightly.
"Shi Wenlong, how is this possible?" Hao Bo looked puzzled. "Didn't his identity just be revealed with Shi Tang's matter? His younger brother Shi Tang was also killed by Li Luo, and now he is still willing to fight for purgatory?
Luo Tao had already tested him personally. Youjing looked at the quiet Li Luo: "However, Shi Wenlong asked me to bring you a message, this time I fought side by side with you, it was for purgatory, but also for himself, but if you kill his brother, he will settle it with you later." ”
Li Luo was silent!
Although Shi Tang was indeed not killed by himself, there is no evidence, what is the point of explaining, but he does have some doubts in his heart.
"General Youjing, Shi Wenlong is Shi Tang's brother, he is looking for revenge on me, I can understand, but why is he willing to help Purgatory deal with the Shi family, and even win the trust of the general? Originally, I shouldn't have asked more, but in the future, he is likely to become my comrade-in-arms, general, you must know that a strong enemy may not be so terrible, and what is more terrifying is often the comrades-in-arms around who are not in harmony. ”
Youjing looked into Li Luo's eyes, stared at them for a long time, seemed to hesitate, and nodded lightly after a long while.
"Originally, I shouldn't have said anything about other people, but you have a good reason for that, at least I don't want to see my own people fight to the death in the upcoming challenge. ”
As he spoke, his tone paused slightly. "It's complicated, and I can't say anything, but I'll let Shi Wenlong meet you tomorrow. It's up to you to figure it out, I can only say that if Shi Wenlong tells you about him, then it's all true, and I've personally investigated and verified it!"
"Well, everything is arranged by the general!" Li Luo nodded in agreement.
"Okay! The second thing I came today is to teach you a set of footwork, this is also the footwork when I became famous, you don't have more foundation now, you must need it very much, it is the footwork that Saint Monarch Xu once used, Xiaoyao Step!"
"Easy walk?" Li Luo was stunned and muttered the name of the body, a little incredulous. "General Youjing, isn't Saint Monarch Wang Xu's stunt recognized as lost?Besides, at that time, martial arts thaumaturgy didn't seem to have developed rapidly, was his martial art still practical?"
"It's not lost!" Admiral Youkyo shook his head, with a look of memory on his face: "When I was young, I had a chance to strayed into a strange secret realm, which was the location of a mysterious hidden door. Later, when she saw that I had good qualifications, she taught me the Easy Walk, and she not only knew the Easy Walk, but also the martial arts of the Saint Monarch Wang Xu, she almost knew it!"
Speaking of this, Youjing retracted his distant gaze and reprimanded: "Li Luo, don't despise the peerless knowledge handed down by the Holy Monarch, according to historical records, the power of the Holy Monarch Wang Xu should only be a human-level golden rank at the peak of his later years, and it is really nothing now, but he and Martial King Xiangtian have accurately set the titles of the four realms of mortal, human, earth, and heaven, and even continue to use them to this day, which is enough to show a lot."
Today's powerhouses all believe that their realm at that time must have reached the limit of the heaven-level, but it should be due to some mysterious reason, so they can only exert the power of the human-level golden level, and even among the founding heroes of the Great Chu Dynasty, such as Dian Wei, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Zhou Zhi, Zhang Jing and many other masters have reached the heaven-level, and may even be higher, but they are only exerted but are suppressed by the powerful! Therefore, you little guy don't look down on the masters, underestimate this set of body methods, you must know that I have practiced this body method for so long, and it is only the second realm!"
When Li Luo heard the previous words, he had a little more respect for the Holy Monarch more than two thousand years ago, and he was also excited and grateful for Youjing Kenjiao's body method, but when he heard the last sentence, his heart sank suddenly, and his face was a little helpless: "General Youjing, it took you so many years to practice to reach the second realm, it can be seen that the cultivation of this exercise is very difficult, I only have three months now, can I really learn this set of exercises?" I am afraid that it will disappoint you!"
"You're too worried!" Youjing smiled at the corner of his mouth. "If you're not sure, I won't teach you, it's really difficult to practice a good walk, but it's easy to get started, with your qualifications, three months of practice to get started should be enough. Without further ado, do you learn or not?"
"Learn!" Li Luo did not hesitate.
"Then follow me first!"
Admiral Youkyo's figure moved slightly, grabbed him directly by the collar, and flew quickly to the east.
Admiral Youjing is a strong man of the heaven-level silver rank, the limit flight speed is terrifying, not much slower than the flying machine, this trip may be to let Li Luo feel the wonder of the free walk, but also to use the method in the flight, so that his speed far exceeds the limit of conventional aircraft.
Although the strong air flow had been removed by Youjing's external energy, the few remaining blows on Li Luo's face still made him feel the rapidity.
The mountains and rivers passed by in an instant, and I don't know how long it took, but the sky was already overcast, and Ukyo stopped at a valley.
"It's a nice place here, so let's do it here!"
With the words, Youjing walked slowly to the stream, only to see a flash of sword light, and saw a complex pattern like gossip rising in the green grass with a "boom", Li Luo didn't even see which direction the sword came from.
"Li Luo, come here!" Youjing beckoned.
"Yes!" Li Luo respectfully stepped forward.
Youjing took a deep breath and pressed his left index finger to his Yin Hall, the fingertips flickered, and the exercise technique entered Li Luo's mind.
After a while, the brilliance dissipated, and Youjing pointed to the gossip array and said, "Go in, run the magic trick in your head, and then I'll let you step in whichever direction you want." ”
"Hmm!" Li Luo excitedly rushed into the gossip array.
But the smile on his face didn't last long, the position was too complicated, too difficult to step on, and the time for the pace change was also ever-changing, coupled with the cooperation of the exercise method, the difficulty was unimaginable, and after practicing for a long time, he was still in a hurry, and even his head became a little confused.
Youjing didn't accuse, just kept directing what to do, but whenever there was a mistake, it was immediately a burst of energy, which made Li Luo feel severe pain at the same time, and was also forcibly changed by the action of changing his body, which can be described as torture.
This kind of training did not stop, and after a whole day, in the evening, Li Luo's mind was completely confused, but the mistakes he made were greatly reduced.
He himself noticed this problem, and after a long time, he still gasped and asked, "General Youjing, why can't I remember my steps at all now, but I am less hit by your strength?" Also, how long do I need to practice?"
"Because your body has formed an inertial reaction, you will do it the right way on your own without thinking!" Ukyo's indifferent voice sounded. "As for how long you have to practice, I don't know, anyway, when you step on it, you can't go wrong, even if you barely pass! You'd better not think about anything, that will be less sinful!"
Li Luo didn't say anything more, gritted his teeth and insisted.
The valley fell into silence again, and Li Luo in the Bagua Array was still moving endlessly and quickly, although he was already very tired, but he always stubbornly persevered, if the speed slowed down slightly, Youjing's fingers would shoot out a thin burst of energy and hit his back, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.
The training lasted until the early morning of the next day, and the intense practice for a whole day and night made Li Luo exhausted, his internal strength was exhausted, Neidan was sluggish, and his mind was violently dizzy.
At this time, Youkyo finally made a voice to stop him, grabbed him and flew back to the secret base.
When he was in the air, Li Luo felt that there was a force nourishing his body, that power was very powerful, with a strong sense of sharpness, although it was nourishing his inner mansion, there was still an illusion that it was about to tear him apart at any time. This made him feel more clearly the internal force characteristics of Admiral Youjing, the extreme sharpness, a very terrifying characteristic.
Back outside the secret base camp, Li Luo's complexion had improved a lot, and Admiral Youjing put him down and said indifferently: "You are indeed a natural warrior, your body's agility and memory ability are very strong, and you can reflexively step on the free step in one day and one night, two full days faster than I did back then!"
Li Luo shook his head, not proud of himself, but said with admiration: "General Youjing is amazing, he can actually last for three days and three nights, I am really at the limit!"
"I didn't practice continuously, I practiced several times, but the actual training time was three days longer than yours!" Youjing said in a relaxed tone.
"Then I'll ...... this day and night" Li Luo's eyes flashed with confusion,
"It's to save time, I really don't have that much time to be here!"
“......”
Youjing smiled, and gently reached out and patted Li Luo's shoulder: "You are used to the positive sequence cycle of the free step, but this is only the beginning, not even the entry, in the future, you will continue to practice like this every day, and keep speeding up until you run at full speed in the Bagua Array according to the footwork order, and there will be no stagnation, then step on the footwork backwards, that is, step from the last step to the starting step, and complete the reverse cycle." ”
"General, is this considered an entry?" Li Luo asked.
"No, when you can move at full speed according to the footwork in reverse order, practice the cycle of one positive and one negative, and then one reverse and one positive, until these four ways are practiced into your body's natural reactions, and you can move freely and attack easily in the Bagua Array, then you are considered a beginner!"
These words made Li Luo feel the pressure of Rushan, if he was given enough time, then it would not make him frown, but now that he was only three months away from the Four Prisons Challenge, and he still had to insist on practicing "Hundred Heavy Mountains" in a limited time, this was really a very difficult task.
Li Luo was a very tenacious person, and the shame of the past made him cherish a powerful opportunity, and in the face of such great pressure, he took a deep breath and still didn't say anything to complain. "General, I don't know how to practice next after completing the introduction?"
"After entering the door, there are three realms, the first is called similar but not godlike, the second is like and godlike, and the third is like God but not like. This requires you to practice and figure out for a long time, and the specific cultivation method has already been transmitted to your mind along with the Fa Jue, but it has been sealed by me with strength, and when you get to the beginning, the seal will naturally dissipate. ”
As he spoke, Youjing slowly walked away, stepping on the air, and walking towards the sky step by step.
"Don't worry too much, after all, you already have many seals in your body, and it shouldn't be as small as mine. ”
Li Luo instantly thought of the problem on his body, and immediately shouted at Youjing: "General, can you help me unlock the seal?"
"I can't break it! My strength is not suitable for breaking the seal in your body, and my strength will completely destroy your body! The seal in your body is very strange, and it is not strong enough to forcibly break it, but I will find time to help you ask others. After these words came from afar, Ukyo had already disappeared from the sky.
