Chapter 17: The New Year's Ceremony

In the small courtyard where the huhu is flat, a figure is practicing boxing steadily, and the fierce and domineering fist force brings a gust of wind, blowing the ground dusty and spinning.

"Drink!"

After a set of punches, the figure suddenly exerted force, stepped out, jumped up, and hit the waist-thick hardwood stake with a chain of two punches, click, the stake could not withstand the destruction of the fist, and was broken into two from the middle, and the upper half flew out seven or eight meters away, and then the fist exploded and disintegrated into fine wooden strips.

"Rigidity and softness are one, yin and yang are combined, and the strength of the body has finally improved. ”

Five days after leaving Wolongling, Ding Yan found an inn in Sudu to stay, honed his boxing skills wholeheartedly, combined with external body refining ointment, internal take, coupled with strong soul power, he clearly felt every inch of his body's strength, broken bones and tendons, and the strength of his body improved by leaps and bounds.

"King Kong Demon Fist, to the strong to the yang, is the Buddhism of refining the body. Now, with my powerful soul control, it shouldn't be long before I can break through the Nineteenth Acupoint Barrier. ”

Breathing, Ding Yan walked slowly to the stone table not far away.

On the round stone table was a white porcelain vase, the mouth of which was sealed with a mahogany stopper, which was the body refining paste purchased at the Elixir Xuan.

Kiss!

Ding Yan unplugged the stopper and put the mouth of the bottle downward, and soon, a light cyan liquid flowed into the palm of his hand, and a faint fragrance spread.

Taking off his clothes, Ding Yan wiped his whole body with his hands dipped in body refining cream.

"Happy. After a few breaths, Ding Yan only felt that the fiery breath slowly penetrated from the surface of the skin, gradually soaking into the muscles, blood and bones, as if countless ants were drilling into it, a little itchy, and painful.

Looking down, I saw the surface of the sturdy body, the muscles were knotted, the oil was shiny, like the most ferocious cheetah, the streamlined body was extremely explosive, it was hard to imagine that this body was still emaciated four months ago.

"No wonder those Buddha King Kongs have bulging muscles and shiny oil, and if this continues, I will also become like that. ”

After exercising for a while, Ding Yan put on his clothes, took the long sword next to him, and walked towards the house.

Locking the door, Ding Yan crossed his knees on the wooden bed, and took out a jade bottle from his arms, in which lay a milky yellow elixir, Ku Wu Dan.

Without hesitation, Ding Yan swallowed it directly, and a bitter taste spread throughout, and after swallowing, it was filled with a coolness, and he immediately closed his eyes and looked inside.

The medicinal power of kunidan is like dots, flowing all over the body, soaking into the blood, polishing the meridians, and exercising the bone marrow. Ding Yan only felt his muscles swell and contract, squirm, and his blood boiled.

Immediately afterwards, the original muscle-knotted figure, after the peristalsis, slowly flattened down, making every inch of the body more elastic, and under the skin, there was a terrifying explosive force hidden in the ordinary muscles.

Just between this rise and contraction, the true qi in the body actually ran wildly in an instant, like a flood tide, and the big waves rolled, rushing towards the acupoint barrier.

Rumble!

Ding Yan seemed to hear an explosion, and after ten days of forging his body, he finally broke through the nineteenth acupoint barrier. The strength has doubled again.

The combination of inside and outside is the king of body refining.

With his current strength, without using the Duzun Fist and the Quick Sword, he can also make a few moves with ordinary Divine Vein Realm Consummation Martial Artists. Coupled with the fast sword, as long as it doesn't run into a guy like Zhang San who has practiced horizontal kung fu, it can be easily killed.

In the early morning of the second day, Ding Yan sorted out and walked towards Ding's mansion. Today, it is the annual festival of the Ding family, one of the three major families of the Chu State.

The cold wind is blowing, all the way, but there are already crowds of people on the majestic road, as if they don't care about this cold weather, the traffic is busy, so lively. The road, which was enough for more than a dozen horses to ride on horseback, was now quite crowded, and the riders had slowed down.

Most of these people, who are young masters and young ladies from separate families, have rushed back from all over the Chu State since the beginning of this year's festival.

"Ding Mansion, the thousand-year-old family is nothing more than that. Standing in the crowded stream, Ding Yan looked at the plaque high above, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still cause and effect involved in this mansion, Ding Yan would not have wasted his cultivation time to participate in this annual festival at all.

"Get out, get out of the way!"

Suddenly, a loud shout came from behind him, and Ding Yan turned around curiously, ready to see who in the Chu State was so bold as to come out and make trouble during the Ding family's annual festival.

I saw that many people behind him were panicking out of the way, and not far away, several richly dressed teenagers were galloping on horseback.

The first person, about eighteen years old, wearing a blue brocade suit, looks handsome, but there is a pompous and arrogant color between his eyebrows, holding a long whip, casually pumping towards the side of the road. The man behind him shouted and whipped his whip.

Every time the long whip fell, it brought out a long string of blood beads, which were domineering and rampant, and regarded human life as child's play.

"Ding Dahai Ding Hao's eldest son"

Ding Yan squinted his eyes, and a message emerged.

The speed of several people was extremely fast, and they came to Ding Yan's side in a short time. Their eyes were above the top, and they wouldn't notice Ding Yan under the horses at all.

Shout!

The long whip broke through the air, and the sharp sound made the scalp tingle, and it was fiercely pumped towards Ding Yan.

"Look for death. ”

His eyes were cold, Ding Yan's right hand grasped weakly, and a stream of earthy yellow true qi covered the surface, with the help of skill, he cut off the power of the long whip, and then grasped it with his palm, pinched the long whip and pulled it back.

Who knew that Ding Dahai's palm was not weak, Ding Yan pinched the long whip and actually pulled it empty.

Looking at the long whip in his hand, Ding Yan's eyes lowered.

"Brother Dahai, why is the long whip in your hand missing?"

Ding Dahai was also a little puzzled, just just flicking the whip casually, but he didn't expect it to be gone, yawning, and didn't care: "I don't know, anyway, it's just a whip, if you don't see it, it's gone, that chick was in such a good shape yesterday, that I almost couldn't get out of bed today." Immediately, a smile appeared on his face.

The people behind him also laughed at the same time.

"Brother Dahai, I'll give you another one tonight"

"No, today is the family annual festival, tomorrow is the beginning of the year, let's send it the day after tomorrow."

The scope of the Ding family's mansion is very large, and Ding Yan's speed is not slow, but he still walked for nearly half an hour, and from a distance, he saw the square where the festival was held that year.

There was a lot of darkness in the square, and there were already a lot of people, and at the place of entry, some slaves were there. Everyone who attends the festival goes there to register, receives a small sign, and if they are not qualified, they are directly expelled.

"Name. ”

"Ding Yan. ”

"Ding Yan?" the servant stared at Ding Yan in surprise, and then a hint of sarcasm appeared in his eyes, "The thirteenth young master has also come to participate in the New Year's Festival?"

Ding Yan's face was indifferent, and a momentum emanated, and suddenly, the slave only felt that his entire body was trapped in an ice cave, and a terrifying chill permeated his whole body.

"Young Master, this is your number, and the slave knows that he is wrong. The slave was terrified.

After receiving the numbered plate, Ding Yan did not speak, and strode into the square. After Ding Yan left, the servant looked at Ding Yan's back in horror, and at that moment just now, he seemed to feel the call of death.

The festival was held at noon, but the square was still crowded. This square, I'm afraid it's more than the size of two football fields, and it can easily accommodate 10,000 people. After a few months of practice, although Ding Yan got rid of his lean body, his height was only about 1.7 meters, and he was far from standing out here. So, standing on the periphery, you can only see the crowds. The most conspicuous thing is the straight platform directly opposite.

The high platform is extremely high, there are 100 zhang, the whole body is blue and black, it is trapezoidal and upward; it is like a huge tower, falling straight down, a majestic and cangsang breath, from the top of the high platform, diffuse out, enveloping the whole heaven and earth.

The annual sacrifice is divided into sacrificing the sky and worshipping the ancestors, and this is the Ding family's 'sacrificial rooftop'.

"What a strong evil aura!" Looking at the high platform in front of him, Ding Yan was a little surprised. If the Demon Gate is here, it will definitely refine this high platform into a magic weapon.

As one of the three major families of the Chu State, the Ding family was prosperous, and before noon, there were almost five or six thousand people in the square. However, among the younger generation, there are only more than 100 people, gathered together, separated from the children of the side lineage, and the hierarchy is clear. Ding Yan did not go to the team of his descendants, but found a place at random and waited with peace of mind.

Time passed slowly amid the buzzing of everyone. The sunlight in the sky, glittering with gold, dispelled the cold of winter.

It's noon!

There was a movement at the edge of the square, and then a group of more than 20 people walked slowly from a road outside the square that led to the rostrum.

"It's the head of the family and the elders. ”

Someone suddenly whispered in his ears, and the discussion gradually stopped in the square
