In the evening, the kitchen was full of table of mountain delicacies, all of which were the prey harvested by Xu Yan in Fengming Mountain, which was delicious and very nourishing to qi and blood. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The table full of delicious food, if it was usually swept away by Xu Yan earlier, today, he eats very little slowly.

It was not Xu Yan's bad mood, but because the acupuncture points were frozen by the cold and the qi and blood did not flow smoothly. The meals are all meat essence of game, and the qi, blood and energy contained are sufficient, but the amount that Xu Yan can absorb is limited, so he can naturally eat less.

There was most of the dishes left on the table, Xu Yan could only give up when he touched his swollen belly, and it was not good for his health to force it to be stuffed.

"The body is like a sponge, and if the orifice is blocked, the less water it can absorb. ”

Xu Yan's chest ached faintly, and the freshly digested qi and blood flowed along the meridians, and it was very slow when it passed through the frozen acupuncture points on his chest, not only the pain was unbearable, but it was transformed into less than one-fifth of the usual internal breath.

Xu Yan came to the courtyard, stretched his muscles and played a set of "Thirteen Palms of the Dragon", and the strength of the moves was significantly weakened.

After a warrior steps into the inner breath realm, the physical strength is only one aspect, and whether or not the strength and internal breath can be perfectly integrated determines the real combat power. The strength of Xu Yan's body was not greatly affected, but the operation of the internal breath was obviously sluggish, and the power of the move was of course greatly reduced.

"Keep cultivating, no matter how hard and tired you are, you have to cultivate!"

Xu Yan let out a long breath of turbidity, calmed down and continued to practice the "Thirteen Palms of the Dragon Wandering Dragon" move, as well as the cooperation with the body method.

As long as you practice hard, the power of the move cannot be increased, but there will still be a certain accumulation of proficiency. In addition, by increasing the consumption of the body, it stimulates the speed of internal breathing.

Although it had little effect, Xu Yan didn't want to waste a little time, and he didn't allow himself to slack off because of this.

Until the middle of the night, Xu Yan didn't know how many moves he had performed, sweating like rain and his internal breath was exhausted, and he couldn't even raise his arms before he would stop.

Dragging his tired body, Xu Yan came to the bath and fell into the water of the medicine pool soaked in "Dragon and Tiger Strong Bone San" with a pop.

"I can't sleep yet, I have to stay awake and run the inner strength. ”

Xu Yanqiang sat up energetically, put his hands together on his abdomen, and mobilized his internal breath to run along the meridians of his limbs. Whenever the internal breath passed through his chest, the pain suddenly intensified, and Xu Yan couldn't help but tremble all over his body and clench his teeth.

The internal interest works very slowly, at a speed of one-third of the normal rate, and every day it runs, only about one-fifth of the internal interest is accumulated and transformed.

"At least, it's better than not being able to cultivate at all. ”

Xu Yan said secretly, let alone one-fifth, even if there is only one-tenth of the effect left, he will never give up on himself.

"Since my cultivation speed has slowed down, then I'll take the time to make up for it. ”

In the early morning of the next day, it took six hours for Xu Yan to finally absorb a pool of potion.

After cultivating overnight, the acupuncture points on Xu Yan's chest hurt all night, and if there was no strong and firm will, it would be impossible for ordinary people to persevere.

Xu Yan stopped the internal breath operation, carefully checked the acupuncture points and meridians in the body, especially the chest, and felt relieved that there were no abnormalities.

"Although the pain is unbearable, I forcibly cultivate like this, but fortunately, I won't leave any dark wounds. "As long as there are no hidden dangers, Xu Yan doesn't care how much he suffers.

In addition, Xu Yan also unexpectedly found that after a night of internal breathing, the cold in his body was slightly weakened.

Although it was not obvious, Xu Yan was sure that he was not mistaken, and the cultivation of internal breath could weaken the cold qi to a certain extent and break away the blocked acupuncture points.

According to the estimation of the speed of weakening, it would take at least four or five months for Xu Yan to completely dispel the cold qi, which happened to be the expiration of the proton period. It seems that all this is still within the calculation of Manager Zhen, and what he wants is that Xu Yan will be honest during this time.

"It's been too long, and we have to think of something else. ”

Xu Yan pondered for a long time, and now there are two ways, one is for the master to dispel the cold qi for him, and the other is to take a panacea containing a large amount of heaven and earth essence qi to forcibly impact the frozen acupuncture points.

"Manager Zhen's cultivation is unfathomable, and he is almost certainly a master of the Innate Realm, and if he wants to lift the ban on acupuncture points under him, the person who makes the move must also be a strong person in the Innate Realm. Don't say I don't know such a person, even if I do, please don't move. ”

Then, the only way left for me is to find a panacea.

"Panacea is hard to find, and the market price is extremely high, often hundreds of thousands of taels. Xu Yan only had one or two hundred thousand silver left in his hand, and he couldn't afford the elixir in front of him.

Xu Yan touched his chin and couldn't help but think of the jasper vermilion fruit found in Fengming Mountain.

Jasper Zhuguo is a first-order high-grade elixir, and the energy contained in it is pure and intense, which is just right for Xu Yan's current needs.

"There are more than a dozen of those jasper vermilion fruits, as long as there is another half a month to ripen, taking all of them may really be able to dispel the cold in my body. ”

The only trouble is that the jade ring snake is guarding the cave, and Xu Yan must deal with this poisonous snake.

If Xu Yan's acupuncture points were not frozen, and he was well prepared, it would not be too difficult to solve it. And now, Xu Yan's strength can only be exerted, and it is very dangerous to defeat the extremely poisonous Jade Ring Snake, and he is completely unsure.

"The jasper vermilion fruit is not ripe yet, even if everything goes well, the cold in my body will not be lifted until half a month. ”

There are only six days left for him to meet Chen Long in battle, and it is completely too late in time, do you really want to give up?

Xu Yan doesn't care about face and fame, but since he should make a war letter, running away without a fight is extremely damaging to his mood, and Xu Yan doesn't want to give up easily unless he has to.

"Let's take one step at a time, all I can do now is to seize all the time to improve my strength. ”

Xu Yan sighed heavily, jumped out of the bath and wrapped himself in clothes, and returned to the courtyard to continue practicing moves.

The capital of Great Xia, the residence of the second prince Murong Fei.

"I'm coming to you today to discuss how to deal with Xu Yan. Murong Fei was the first to speak, and the four princes, Murong Yan and Chen Feng, sat opposite.

Murong Yan and Chen Feng glanced at each other, Chen Feng got up and said, "Second prince, don't worry, everything is arranged." Last night, my eldest brother Chen Long had returned to the national capital, and he had already agreed to this. ”

"Also, one good piece of information. Chen Feng paused, with an irrepressible smug look on his face, and said:

"My brother's cultivation has risen sharply recently, not only breaking through the middle stage of the Inner Breath Realm, but also retreating to impact the late stage of the Inner Breath Realm in the past few days. ”

"Oh, when I saw him last year, he was still a lot away from the middle stage of the Inner Breath Realm, how could his cultivation suddenly increase dramatically?" Murong Fei was taken aback.

Among the surrounding countries, except for a few demon princes of the Martial Kingdom, it is very difficult for the younger generation to reach the late stage of the Inner Rest Realm, and it is surprising that Chen Long can have such cultivation in his early twenties.

Chen Feng scratched his head and said, "Listen to my father, my eldest brother went out to practice this time, and it seems that he had an adventure. ”

As for what the situation was, Chen Feng didn't know the details, and Murong Fei didn't want to ask again.

"Second brother, it's a good thing that Chen Longxiu has greatly increased, in this way, Xu Yan will be extremely defeated. Murong Yan added on the side, frowning slightly and said, "It's just that Chen Long's retreat will definitely not be able to catch up with the battle in six days, and this time has to be adjusted." ”

"You're right, I've called you here today for this purpose. ”

Murong Fei nodded, according to his thoughts, the time set before was too hasty, and it was difficult to spread the impact of the incident to the maximum.

"A month later, on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, it happens to be my country's annual festival to worship the sky, and if the covenant battle is placed on this day, the effect will definitely increase tenfold!"

Chen Feng clapped his hands and praised, "Wonderful move! When Xu Yan is defeated, his prestige will fall to the bottom, and Wu Guo will also be disgraced." ”

"Wu Guo has lost face, and he has to take the big brother who is a proton to open the knife, hehehe. Murong Yan looked proud.

Murong Fei waved his hand and said, "It's hard to say how far it can go. However, we can at least test the bottom line of the martial arts. ”

Chen Feng was puzzled, "What does the second prince mean?"

"This is indispensable for your brother to cooperate more, pay attention to proportions when fighting with Xu Yan, you can't kill him at once, only let him be seriously injured. Murong Fei's face was grim, and then he made another movement to wipe his neck, and said: "If Wu Guo hasn't reacted to this, then arrange other means to let Xu Yan die." ”

In this way, Xu Yan's death has nothing to do with us. Murong Yan understood.

The two princes made up their minds, and Chen Feng hurriedly wrote another challenge letter and sent someone to Xu Yan's mansion non-stop.

Xu Yan received the challenge, slapped it heavily on the table after reading it, and scolded: "I deceive people too much, and I obviously want me to make a fool of myself in public!"

Xu Yan didn't know what the other party was doing, but he needed time to buffer, so he had to agree to it.
