Cliff State, Martial Arts Palace is located in the central east of the Cliff State, but generally speaking, it still belongs to the central zone, Martial Arts Palace is built on the mountain, surrounded by mountains on three sides, like a super force surrounded by mountains, as one of the fifty forces in Kyushu, the background of the Martial Arts Palace is not comparable to the general forces, if you really want to divide the fifty forces in Kyushu in detail, the difference between ordinary forces, then there is one thing that can be judged, the standard of this judgment is also the recognized benchmark of all martial artists in Kyushu, at least the existence of a near-god warrior.

God, seemingly ethereal and ethereal, seems mysterious and powerful, but it is just another title for a powerful warrior, the so-called god, refers to some of the most peak warriors, enough to be proud of the world, master the cycle of life and death, although they do not have the ability to create life, but have the domineering majesty to kill everything.

And now in Kyushu, the glory is gone, the prosperity is gone, the gods have gradually faded from their memories, the concept of gods has not appeared for thousands of years, and the most frequently mentioned are only the warriors who are close to the gods.

The gap between the gods and the gods is not a simple ravine, it can be distinguished, it is the difference between the stone and the desert, the difference between the water droplet and the sea, the difference between heaven and earth, and it cannot be said in the same way.

As for gods and true gods, that is not a category that warriors can understand, let alone something that close to gods and warriors can know, only legendary gods can get a glimpse of the mystery of true gods.

It is in this era of continuous decline that the saying that the near gods of the past and present are everywhere has become that the near gods are very rare today, and the goals of countless warriors are all set on the existence that needs to be looked up to in their eyes, and the near gods, as for the gods, and even the true gods are not something they can hope for......

Fifteen days passed in a hurry, in these fifteen days, the half-beast and the red wolf had already begun their own cultivation, their idea was very simple, from the moment they stepped out of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, their official trip to Kyushu had begun, the half-beast and the red wolf did not know how to cultivate correctly, all they could do was to run non-stop for fifteen consecutive nights, and then run.

Thirsty, drink some water from the creek to satisfy hunger, it's really not good, the morning dew, can also solve their problems, for them who have lived in the monster mountain range since childhood, where survival is called difficult, a radius of thousands of miles, there are countless monsters living in the area, there are also competitions between monsters, there are conflicts, there are also killing, that is the natural fate of monsters, fighting for survival, fighting for strength.

When you are hungry, nature is the best gift, the fruits of the forest, even the branches and leaves of the trees, as well as edible flowers, insects, the meat of animals, monsters, etc., everything can solve the problem of food and clothing, tired, the ground is the bed, the sky is the quilt, where can not let them take a short rest.

After fifteen days of trekking, the red wolf and the half-beast of the ninth stage of the beast power who had just stepped into the outer side of the beast power gradually felt that the beast power in the sea of qi was more powerful and condensed, although it was not enough for them to break through, but they firmly believed that as long as they continued step by step, they would become stronger and stronger.

"Ah wolf, do you remember what I told you about the conditions for the enrollment and selection of the Martial Fighting Palace?" After fifteen days of running, the half-beast's breath was still steady, without the slightest panting, these seemed to him to be as simple as ordinary walking, but if it were any other human, running up to hundreds of kilometers a day, it would definitely kill them.

"What conditions?" The red wolf is also a hare that he has just eaten and caught, and there is still some blood stained on the fiery red side of his mouth, but because the red appearance of the red wolf is the same as blood, it is impossible to detect it without looking closely.

The half-beast doesn't like to eat raw animal meat, although he was adopted by demon beasts since he was a child, but he inherited the characteristics of the one-horned ape king and the earth melting rhino, likes to eat some plant fruits, and only occasionally eats some roasted meat, which seems to him to be much easier than eating raw, after all, he does not have the sharp, indestructible fangs of the red wolf.

The red wolf adheres to the special surname of the most primitive wolf, like a natural carnivore, he likes to eat some animals, but does not eat demon beasts, the difference between animals and demon beasts, just like the difference between ordinary humans and warriors, animals have wisdom through cultivation, and have animal power. You can become a demon beast, and an ordinary human can become a warrior if you have force.

"Before the age of eighteen, he had the strength of the sixth stage of martial arts. The half-beast said.

"What's wrong, brother's strength should be beyond the standard, right?"

"My strength is surpassed, but what I have is the nine sections of beast power, not the nine sections of force," the half-beast heard the unicorn ape say, although the beast power, force and even magic power, the essence is the same, they are the foundation of strength, but in essence there is still a difference, the general situation is that human beings have force, demon beasts or monsters have beast power, and the real demon has magic power, the beast power is strong and domineering, the outbreak surname is strong, the force is pure and round, the durability is high, the magic power is unpredictable, and the changes are rich, as for the specific difference, even the unicorn ape is not clear.

Four years ago, in order to solve the dilemma of blindness and difficulty in possessing force, the unicorn ape launched a blood sacrifice against the sky, so that the body of the half-beast flowed with the blood of the flame wolf, becoming a half-beast in the true sense, so that human beings have animal power, which has violated the law of heaven and earth, and should be erased by the catastrophe, but at that time, there was the help of the nine-tails, who was close to the gods, so that the half-beast survived the catastrophe and survived by luck, becoming an existence against the sky.

Although the near god is not as powerful as the god, he can control reincarnation and change life and death, but he can still affect life and death and disturb reincarnation, which is enough for the half-beast, as long as he escapes the heavenly tribulation, then he will no longer have to worry about it in the future, he will be coveted by the heavenly tribulation, worried about the obliteration of martial arts, and his fate has changed dramatically from the moment the blood sacrifice ended.

"My strength is on par, but it's not a standard set by humans, because I don't have the power of force. Hearing the half-beast's words, the red wolf was also a little puzzled.

The red wolf said: "As long as the strength is reached, isn't it okay, otherwise what should I do?"

The half-beast had an extremely bold idea, which even the original unicorn ape did not dare to think: "If I have the power of the beast and the force at the same time, what do you say will be the situation?"

The red wolf didn't dare to imagine: "With animal power, and then with force, if the two do not conflict, it is obvious that the same level of fighting, brother, will definitely have an overwhelming advantage, maybe there will be one plus one greater than two effects, as for the real situation, that can only be known if you have really fought." ”

For this proposal, the half-beast is also a whim, he knows that this idea is crazy, but he is originally a special alternative existence, with human genes, but the blood of demon beasts flows in his body, in this way, all the impossibilities, in his place will become uncertain variables, maybe he can really be mastered, become a beast power, but also have the force of the anti-heaven existence, although I dare not say whether it is the ancients, the future of the ancients, but it is absolutely rare, pitiful.

Speaking of which, the half-beast did not hesitate, and immediately tried to see if it could feel the signs of force in the body or in the sea of qi.

As for force, although the half-beast had no experience to learn from, he thought that if the beast power and force existed in the sea of qi, then he could completely recall the situation when the beast power appeared half a year ago to feel the force in the sea of qi.

Half a year ago, it was the most ordinary, but it was one of the happiest and happiest of the half-beasts, the return of the wolf mother, the half-beasts cheered up from the decadence, and regained their previous cheerfulness, after three and a half years, the careful care of the nine tails, the mutilation of the blood sacrifice, and finally completed completely.

On that day, the half-beast, the red wolf, the wolf mother ran freely, the free "flight", the half-beast happily embraced the blue sky, embraced the future he yearned for, his face was filled with the arrival of spring, the satisfaction of the recovery of all things, like a young eagle riding the wind, can finally flutter its wings and soar, singing the nine skies.

Since the blood sacrifice, although the blood sacrifice failed, but as the unicorn ape expected, the half-beast inherited the power of the Flame Wolf King, when the half-beast condensed and investigated the condition of the body, you can find that there is a full vitality spread in their abdomen, like a dead and silent dry cracked wilderness, a sprout that breaks the ground, interpreting the endless melody of life, a meandering stream, converging the great river that flows endlessly, and finally returns to the end of the journey, that is the sea of qi, the root of power, the source of power.

The sea of qi seems to exist only in a corner of the abdomen, but if you look closely, you can find that it is vast and majestic, like the boundless universe, and the mind cannot control it all, just like a meteorite in the Milky Way, you can only see the whole picture, and you can't be in it.

The sea of qi is constantly circulating in the abdomen, never stopping, and the moment it stops, it is the moment when the sea of qi disappears, and it is also the moment when life dies, and the essence of force will eventually be formed.

When the beast power flows through the limbs and bones from the sea of qi, his physical strength will rise to a new height, whether it is strength, defense or recovery, it is incomparable in ordinary states.

The half-beast cultivates through running, in order to continuously dispatch animal power from the sea of qi to the limbs, repairing the fatigue of the limbs due to the operation of the high load, whether it is the body or the sea of qi, they will be improved under the interaction of each other, so as to increase the animal power in the sea of qi.

When the muscles are sore, the animal power accelerates the division, growth, death and regeneration of the cells in the body, and the continuous circulation makes the muscles of the body continue to become stronger.

When the half-beast tried a few times, he could only perceive the seemingly void but full of beast power in the sea of qi, and he never found anything else, such as force......

"Brother, how is it?" The red wolf on the side saw that the half-beast was awake from his concentration, and he also asked with some doubts.

The half-beast shook his head regretfully: "I don't believe it, I can't detect the existence of force, force should be different from beast power, so there should be something different from beast power in the sea of qi, but I can't sense it, it seems that it is not so easy to have beast power at the same time." ”

At this time, the red wolf thought of another way: "Aren't humans able to absorb the essence of animal power to strengthen their strength, then let's get a force essence, not to strengthen the beast power, simply absorb it, and see if we can attract the hidden force in your body." ”

The so-called absorption of animal power essence to strengthen force is nothing more than absorbing the animal power essence into the human body, and then gradually devouring and assimilating animal power through the force in the sea of qi, turning animal power into a part of its own force, so that in a very short period of time, it can improve the quality and quantity of force, which can not only reduce the cultivation for a long time, but also the strength of force improvement is also extremely good, so in human society, the value of a beast power essence is very high.

The half-beast shook its head and denied it: "Whether it is the generation of force or beast power, the source is the initial body, absorbing the essence of animal power or the essence of force cannot be eliminated, and even if it can be eliminated, how can we get a force essence, we can't just find a martial artist, kill him, and seize the essence of force, besides, this method will not work at all." ”

The red wolf also had a flash of inspiration, as for whether it was useful or not, he didn't think much about it, and shook his head helplessly.

"Alas, even if you can't force it, take your time, as for the selection of the Martial Arts Palace, let's go and see it first, if the conditions are not enough, we can try again after three years, anyway, there is still time, and I believe that within three years, the emergence of force should be a matter of course. "The half-beast finally gave up for the time being.

"Well, okay. Red Wolf said.

At this moment, the face of the half-beast changed dramatically, and at this time, he unexpectedly found that on the claws of the red wolf, at some point, there were more than a dozen faint black thin lines, like an earthworm wriggling, from the soles of the red wolf's feet to his whole body, whether it was on his face or body, he was instantly wrapped in those lifeless, and even a little disgusting black lines, as if the red wolf was bound by ropes, unable to move.

"Brother, how can you ......" The red wolf was still surprised just now, and the next moment his face became distorted, as if he was in great pain, at this time he actually found that in his sea of qi, those black lines, like poisonous snakes, were biting his sea of qi, and then injected wisps of black venom into it, and the beast power in the sea of qi began to turn from a transparent illusory appearance to black smoke and dust.

"This is, the demonic qi ......" The half-beast is no stranger to demonic energy, the last time he fought with the Demon Emperor, he found that the red wolf seemed to be trying to save the rhino mother, blocking an attack of demonic energy, although the demonic energy passed through the body of the red wolf strangely, but it would still be a threat to the red wolf.

The unicorn ape once told the half-beast that the demonic energy is extremely weird, and even the unicorn ape does not dare to touch the demonic qi easily, because the demonic qi is harmful to the demon beast, once it is contaminated with the demonic energy, it will be swallowed by the demonic energy, and slowly become a brutal demonic beast that only knows how to kill, and there is no surname at all, as long as it sees a living thing, the demonic beast will finally tear it apart and kill it until death.

"Could it be ......" The half-beast didn't dare to imagine the consequences, but he didn't have anything to do in the face of the pain of the red wolf, although the demonic qi was not dangerous to humans, but the half-beast, which was not powerful now, knew nothing about the demonic qi, he could only be anxious on the side......

The white fox on the neck of the half-beast also seemed to notice the change in the red wolf, and her face was solemn, but she couldn't help......

Just as the half-beast was wandering in place, he suddenly noticed that not far away, three young people who were all about sixteen or seventeen years old came faintly, and as their eyes narrowed, their figures became clearer and clearer, until the half-beast was a little surprised to see their slightly familiar faces.

"How are they ......?"
