In the practice room, Xia Yunfan sat cross-legged, pinching the magic trick in his hands, running the qi refining technique, breathing and exhaling the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and condensing the true qi in his body.

Along with Xia Yunfan's breathing, the spiritual qi gathered from the practice room, forming a vortex of spiritual energy with a diameter of three meters, filling the practice room and surrounding Xia Yunfan.

Under the effect of the Qi Refining Technique, the spiritual qi vortex frantically poured into Xia Fan's body, refining it into true qi, and then condensing into a liquid true element, which was integrated into the meridians.

However, this large amount of true qi immediately overflowed from Xia Fan's body and reintegrated into the aura of heaven and earth.

"It's still like this!" Xia Fan opened his eyes and frowned: "The meridians are tougher and thicker than before, and even the liquid true qi of the fourth layer of qi refining can't be washed away." ”

"Alas, this time it's really troublesome!"

This time, Xia Fan's cultivation advanced to the realm of the fourth layer of the middle level of qi refining in the spirit cave as he wished, and his combat power increased greatly, Xia Fan originally thought that with this breakthrough, the problem of his body and meridians should be solved, and the meridians in his body would expand with the breakthrough of cultivation.

However, the result disappointed Xia Fan, not only did all the meridians in Xia Fan's body not get a trace of expansion, but Xia Fan found that the thickness and toughness of the meridians were dozens of times stronger than before the advancement, and with his cultivation of the fourth layer of the middle level of Qi refining, he could not make the meridian pulses wider even a bit.

This situation was something that Xia Fan hadn't thought of at all before, because as a normal Qi Refining Martial Cultivator, every time he advanced, he would be accompanied by the strengthening of the body and the expansion of the meridians, which was common knowledge in the Southern Wilderness Continent since ancient times, but Xia Fan's situation broke this common sense.

"It's a pity that the spirit cave in the Yandang Mountain Range is too small, and for me, whether it's refining qi condensate or strengthening the physical body, it doesn't work anymore. ”

"Could it be that when I advance to the advanced level of qi refining in the future, I have to find a new and more powerful spirit cave" Xia Fan couldn't help but smile bitterly, he knew that he was a little delusional, this spirit cave is not everywhere, even in the entire Southern Wilderness Continent, it is also a rare item.

"That's it, let's not think about these things first, it seems that the only way to try it is to enter the county academy, with the background in the academy, there should be a solution" Xia Fan thought to himself.

"By the way, there's something I haven't checked yet?"

Xia Fan picked up the small leather bag hanging on his waist, which was the spatial equipment that Xia Leilin threw into the spirit cave in order to escape.

Xia Fan originally thought that this leather bag had been completely crushed by the spiritual energy whirlpool, but he didn't expect that he would find it intact at the bottom of the spiritual acupoint.

"It is worthy of being a rare and rare space equipment, it was strangled by the aura vortex like this, and there was not a trace of trauma!" Xia Fan stroked and rubbed the small leather bag in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh.

The power of the space vortex, Xia Fan knows best, that is, if a piece of iron is thrown into it, he is afraid that it will be twisted into pieces, but this small leather bag fell into it without any damage, how can it not be amazing.

After Xia Fan played with it for a while, he injected a true qi into the small leather bag, and the small leather bag suddenly opened, and all the things in the leather bag appeared in Xia Fan's mind.

"What a wonderful feeling, is this the effect of divine sense?" Xia Fan exclaimed.

The third order and nine layers of Qi Refining Martial Dao, the advancement of each level is a transformation of the cultivator, and this transformation is a comprehensive transformation and evolution of the cultivator's essence, qi and spirit.

The essence and spirit include the three aspects of true qi, physical body, and spirit, true qi condensation, physical strengthening, and spiritual consciousness, that is, the strengthening of the practitioner when entering the middle level of qi refining.

True Qi Condensation, that is, in the meridians in Xia Fan's body, condenses True Qi into a trickle, and the role it can play is really better than nothing for Xia Fan, just as a symbol of advancement. ...,

And the physical enhancement brought by the advancement cannot be compared with the powerful effect brought by the jade refining technique, and it does not bring any feeling to Xia Fan at all, perhaps its effect has been covered by the strengthening of the jade refining technique.

Only the spiritual consciousness is a kind of strengthening of Xia Fan's spirit, and the purification of Xia Fan's spiritual power into divine consciousness can make Xia Fan feel the real benefits of the advanced Qi refining intermediate level.

This change is also what Xia Fan feels the most, after all, Xia Fan has two lives, and his soul power is naturally strong, more than twice as powerful as ordinary people, so when he spiritualizes his consciousness, Xia Fan's divine sense is also extremely powerful, twice the amount of martial arts monks in the same realm.

Xia Fan, who had a strong divine sense, naturally had no trouble exploring the items in the space equipment, and soon understood everything in the small leather bag.

"That's really the case, Xia Leilin, you really deserve to be a person of luck, and you must have more advanced space equipment in your hands!" Xia Fan finished exploring the space equipment, but found that the pouch was empty, and there was no equipment, and there were no spirit stones.

Obviously, the original owner of the small leather bag had already consumed all the spirit stones in the phantom array, and the equipment on his body had also turned into waste in a slow time, leaving only this space equipment.

"Hey, there's still something!" With Xia Fan's surprised voice, three books with leather covers flew out of the small leather bag and floated in front of Xia Fan's eyes, which was the ability of the Divine Consciousness Imperial Object.

Divine Consciousness Imperial Objects, just like those superpowers in Xia Fan's previous life, used spiritual power to control objects, and the ability to bend the soup spoon was generally the same, and Divine Consciousness was originally derived from spiritual power.

Xia Fan looked at the three books with brown and black covers in front of him, one of them was the Qi Refining Technique, which was the same as the Qi Gong method practiced by Xia Fan, and it was also the most basic practice of Qi Refining Martial Dao, it was not surprising, Xia Fan looked through it and put it aside.

The second book is a swordsmanship secret book "Spirit Sparrow Sword Technique", a quick flow of mid-level swordsmanship secrets, suitable for thin and flexible martial monks.

Xia Fan couldn't help but shake his head after reading it, although this sword technique secret book is a mid-level sword technique, its attribute style is mainly dexterous and agile, and it is of little use to him.

However, after Qin'er advanced to the fourth level of qi refining, she could be allowed to practice this sword technique, and by looking at the name of the sword technique, she knew that this was originally a sword technique for women.

Xia Fan opened the third book, and the content of the book couldn't help but make Xia Fan's eyes light up, "The Initial Solution of the Formation", which is the name of the third book.

Obviously, the book "The First Solution of the Formation" was prepared by the former owner of the space equipment of the small leather bag to explore the ruins on the top of the mountain, and there are many notes on it that prove his experience in exploration.

It's a pity that this person didn't know that the ruins of the road were laid with an extremely high-level phantom array, and in the absence of a treasure map, he was finally trapped and died in the array.

"This 'Initial Solution of the Formation' is a good thing!" Xia Fan looked at the contents of the book, and couldn't help but think in his heart: "It's a pity that it won't help me enter the county academy now." ”

Although Xia Fan didn't know how many young martial arts cultivators in the entire Yansang County had reached the standard of the county academy, there were definitely far more than nine hundred.

Therefore, since Xia Fan came back, he began to practice in retreat, polishing his true qi martial arts, becoming familiar with his own strength greatly improved due to advancement, and integrating it with the martial arts he had practiced for many years, which was Xia Fan's hole card for entering the academy.

In fact, not only Xia Fan, but also in the entire Xia Family Fort, as long as there are teenagers under the age of thirteen, they are all doing the same thing as Xia Fan.

The only thing to do is to be able to enter the county academy and become a member of it.
