Chapter 9: Building the Foundation. Array Mage (2-in-1)

"Delicious, so delicious!"

The "top rewards" issued by the system were all placed on the stone table in front of him under Liu Che's generosity, and Zhang Fei exclaimed while eating the fragrant "sweet potato roast": "Big brother, what kind of dish is this?" It's the first time in my life that I've tasted such a peculiar food. ”

"The soft and glutinous texture with the slightly charred skin is simply addictive!"

"There is also the two-pot head that tastes like a scorching sun, and it only feels hot and spicy at first, but as the taste spreads between the nasal cavity and viscera, the thick mellow aroma instantly conquers me."

Facing the food brought by Liu Che such as Erguotou, sweet potato roast, and spiced edamame, Zhang Fei became more and more excited after tasting it. Novelty and unparalleled deliciousness like never before......

After all, there is such a beautiful legend of "Zhang Fei Beef" in the world, how bad can the gourmand Zhang Fei's meat appreciation ability be?

"Ahhh~"

However...... After Zhang Fei personally ate the braised piece of the best "fierce beast meat", an unexpected change occurred.

The flesh of the beast slid down the esophagus, and in the process of entering the stomach, it quickly decomposed into a warm current of energy and rushed to the limbs and bones, and the pores of his whole body seemed to be opened in a moment, freely absorbing the energy and breath diffused between heaven and earth.

The meteorite fragments scattered in the space of the Eastern Han Dynasty not only represent the rules of ability, but also provide strong support for the theory of "refining the body" that can play a role in the improvement/evolution of the world's physique. The role played by the former is called "Ability Awakening", and the use of the latter is called "Body Refining Energy" - Qi Refining.

The same "thing" played two complementary but different roles in the change of the world of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The fragments of the rules symbolize all kinds of strange abilities, which can only be dimly perceived and comprehended by a very small group of people who are gifted and perceived differently than ordinary people.

And the qi refining produced in the "Eastern Han Dynasty Gaowu Era" is the way for most ordinary people or some second-rate and third-rate generals to cultivate and become stronger all day long. Liu Xiu relied on the six royal skills condensed by his own body technique - it is an exclusive martial art that can only play the greatest role with qi refining.

Swallow and exhale energy, and use the refining qi all over the heaven and earth to impact the five internal organs and the body, so as to achieve the effect of cultivating the power of thousands of catties and ten thousand catties. This is the most widely circulated in the Eastern Han Dynasty today, and the basis of the official royal family certification method of physical cultivation - "Building the Foundation".

The theory of physical cultivation is divided into four stages, with no step of 100 catties of power; The power of the first order of thousands of catties; second-order power of ten thousand catties; The power of the third order is 100,000 catties. (hundreds, thousands...... And so on)

Most of the ordinary people can reach the stage of no rank, and the strength that a top warrior like Zhang Fei can master is only a few thousand catties of strength at the peak of the first order. As for the legendary third order, it seems that there is only Liu Xiu in the past.

So when he heard Guan Yu's gravity ability, Liu Che's appearance was so surprised. Just imagine, how terrifying it is to be able to make the enemy feel the gravity of the second-order peak without much effort?

In addition to the "Foundation Building Decision" recognized by the Eastern Han Dynasty, there is only one shortcut to rapid progress in physical cultivation: eating heavenly and earthly treasures. It includes the corpses of apex celestial plants and ferocious beasts, as well as other special beings rich in energy.

And the fierce beast meat that Zhang Fei swallowed just now is undoubtedly one of such special existences!

Strong qi refining fluctuations came from Zhang Fei's body, and Guan Yu said in a relieved and happy tone, "Big brother is really not an ordinary person, this fierce beast meat with rich energy is not hunting from the wild land?" ”

Liu Che: "??? ”

He is very confused now, he understands both "Building the Foundation Decision" and the theory of heaven and earth, but how can he not know that eating ordinary beast meat can become stronger?

Silently shouting out the system in his heart, Liu Che pressed the pressure and asked excitedly, [System, under the task of three knots...... What level of beast is the ferocious beast meat reward you are handing out? 】

[Judging from the division of strength in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it should be a fierce beast comparable to half of Liu Xiu's strength. 】

[I'm rough! 】

In front of the stone table, Liu Che pretended to be calm and explained:

"Second brother, don't you know, this is the top fierce beast meat that the eldest brother has passed down as a family heirloom for a hundred years, and after special treatment by the ancestors, its meat quality is not rotten for a hundred years, and the energy is tightly closed.

Every few years, I take a snack to improve my physique, which is one of the important reasons why I can awaken such a strong ability. ”

"I see!"

[The eldest brother is really powerful, and Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, is worthy of his reputation. Such a rare beast meat in the world actually shared it with his brothers without care, and this big brother Guan Mou followed! Guan Yu thought with little stars in his eyes.

On the side, Liu Che continued to explain seriously: "If the huge beast meat wants to be preserved for a long time, its corpse is condensed by a secret method, needless to say.

The most important thing is the sealing effect of energy.

For example, a few pieces of meat on the plate seem to be no more than the size of a palm, but in fact, they bring together dozens or even hundreds of catties of flesh essence. Today, the three of us brothers are married, why not take out the last inventory? ”

Fabricating a suitable virtual background for the "Heavenly Treasure", Liu Che tried his best to convince Guan Yu, he didn't expect the system to give such a top-notch reward.

"The second brother doesn't have to care, since the foolish brother has taken it out, then let it go and eat it." Liu Che looked at Guan Yu and said, "Judging from the energy contained in it, it is not impossible for your body refining power to break through, second brother." ”

……

At the entrance of the treasure, the two of them followed closely behind Zhang Fei and entered the state of refining. The whole body is natural, and the warm current of the internal organs is indescribably comfortable! The uniqueness of what the system calls top-notch beast meat can be seen.

[The initial refining power of this body should be about two thousand catties, and just after eating such a piece of fierce beast meat, it can actually be mentioned as two thousand five hundred catties! ] If you can really hold a complete top-notch fierce beast and gnaw it, wouldn't you really be able to step into the ranks of the second order? 】

The flesh amplification effect brought by the same kind of heaven and earth treasure is limited, but even if it has a decreasing effect on the body, the body that can't withstand the raw materials is too huge. If Liu Che's idea comes true, Guan Yu's gravity manipulation will definitely be able to go up several levels.

Liu Che could clearly perceive the sheer number of Qi refining qi rotating around his body. Theoretically and practically, there is nothing wrong with the method of "Building the Foundation". As for the speed of its own progress, this thing still depends on talent. People who can comprehend the fragments of the rules, how bad can they be in absorbing Qi refining?

It's better to go hand in hand, some people are born to suck fast enough. Therefore, for top generals, double cultivation is the most normal way to become stronger.

Of course, individual cases are not excluded at any time...... Like Dian Wei, an iron-headed baby who can be diamondized all over his body, I am afraid that the power of ten thousand catties is not taken into account at all......

With the three of them as the center of their aura, they absorbed the energy and the fluctuations of the refining qi and successfully caused the petals of the entire peach orchard to fly and form a huge spiral. A few minutes later, the raging Qi refining gradually calmed down, Zhang Fei was the first to open his eyes from the strange state, and without saying a word, he walked to the middle of the manor and played a set of "military body boxing".

The sudden strength made his whole person radiant, and his solid and full muscles revealed strong vitality everywhere. The punch is full of power!

[Follow the eldest brother, sure enough, there is meat to eat! ] Zhang Fei is even more convinced of his inner choice at this moment, where to find such a big brother with a true temperament and a big background?

"Third Brother ......" At this time, Liu Che and Guan Yu also opened their eyes one after another, and what re-entered the line of sight was the "chest hair" version of Zhang Fei who caused the upper body to tear under the imbalance of power.

......Liu Che almost vomited three liters of blood, and if he just woke up and saw such a nerve-stimulating picture, his little heart couldn't stand it!

"Third brother, you put on your clothes first." Guan Yu blushed and chuckled, and the honey smile revealed a very different atmosphere everywhere in Liu Che's eyes at the moment.

Sentimental!?

Liu Bei pretended to cough twice and then reminded, "Come back quickly after changing your clothes, don't forget that we still have important matters to discuss today!" ”

"Ah yes, we still have to find a way to solve the Yellow Turban Thief Mess!" Zhang Fei took out a set of clothes from the cottage in the garden and changed into a smile, "I don't know what the eldest brother and second brother have planned?" ”

[I'm really, I was actually carried away by the meat brought by my eldest brother and forgot to get down to business...... However, the quality of the beast's meat is absolutely top-notch, and I've been hunting for generations, I'm afraid I've never seen such a strong beast......]

"It's also ......" Guan Yu put down his chopsticks and stroked his beard and considered, since he had decided to go to the battlefield and make great achievements, how could he do it without a detailed plan? Troops, horses, money, equipment, all of these need to be taken into account.

You can't just three people go on a rampage, right?

"Second brother, third brother." The first to break the silence was Liu Che himself, who looked directly into the eyes of the two and said calmly:

"Whenever and wherever the most important thing is intelligence gathering before any war, and now we know too little about the generals of the Yellow Turban Thirty-six Parties.

Including the three generals, in addition to Zhang Jiao's ability to sound thunder, what do we know about Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang's ability? ”

"In the face of a very unfamiliar enemy, if you rush to attack without obtaining effective information, the consequences may not be satisfactory. If we want to fight, we have to fight to become famous and vigorous! ”

"As soon as the Yellow Turban Army said, in fact, the second brother has some information here." Guan Yu replied in time after Liu Che finished speaking.

"The total number of Yellow Turban troops is more than 400,000, and the supreme leader is General Sangong. Among them, the so-called 36 generals who can be called famous, in a certain opinion, are actually all local chickens and dogs, and they are all people who sell their heads! ”

"Their strength is rumored to be second only to General Sangong, such a small character, I don't think it will be the opponent of the big brother at all! I don't even need the eldest brother to make a move, and the third brother and I can definitely settle it easily. ”

"What the second brother said is extremely true!" Zhang Fei resolutely followed Guan Yu's words and said, "Actually, I feel that the eldest brother is too worried, with the strength of the three of us, all the laws can be broken with one force!" No matter how many of those crumbs come in, they can't be our opponents. ”

Liu Che: "......"

What about good advice? What about the plan? How inflated are you two, ahh

After complaining, but after he thought about the current worldview of the Three Kingdoms of Gaowu, Liu Che cracked.

[Made, sonic plus gravity and my words, such a wide range of damage and extremely high single combat power, three to thousands or tens of thousands seem to be promising! ] 】

[As long as the other party does not have a military formation or a supreme cooperation, the thief will capture the king first, and directly kill the opposite leader and then defeat the remaining Yellow Turban thief, isn't there no pressure? 】

After thinking twice, Liu Che reminded the two softly: "Suppose the three of us are invincible. But if you are not afraid of 10,000 in everything, you are afraid of what happens, if the enemy army has some special formation or backhand, then ......"

Liu Che paused and didn't say any more, he believed that Guan Yu and the others would definitely understand what he meant now. In case an unexpected formation or something causes the three of them to fail, it will really be dead and no one will even clean it up.

What Liu Che said is true, ordinary soldiers certainly have so-called checks and balances against top generals. The five most basic types of troops in the Eastern Han Dynasty are: wind, wood, water, fire, and earth.

There are top array mages who rely on Tai Chi Bagua, Five Elements Mutual Restraint and other methods to base on the control power of ordinary soldiers to awaken ordinary elements, so as to create a gathering battle array that can combine the power of hundreds and thousands of people. Some battle formations can even be used with fierce beasts to become beast formations......

The power of the formation is not a simple superposition of one or two people, but a geometric explosion after gathering a certain amount of energy. The top-notch battle formation created by gathering the power of thousands of people with the same element can definitely inflict fatal damage on the top generals with a full blow.

It is absolutely uncriticized, and it is recognized as a strong and domineering array in the world.

It's a pity that the number of formation mages is even smaller than that of strategists, and those formations are designed by special talents who can communicate the energy of heaven and earth (refining qi), and the perception ability is not good, what can be used to comprehend heaven and earth and unify the power of thousands of people!?

Moreover, the effect of the 100-person or 1,000-person formation is related to the synchronization of soldiers, the higher the synchronization degree, the stronger the power that can erupt, and vice versa.

However, the existence of the formation is as rare as the existence of the formation mage, and it is impossible for the strength of the rivers and lakes on the surface or the local small heroes to have it.

Thousand-person power formations such as the Ten Sides Ambush Array, the Taiji Bagua Array, and the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array are all available to great families like the royal family, the top Jianghu forces, and the Yuan family.

The common people? Don't even think about it.

But what the three of them are facing this time is the Yellow Turban thieves who are known as "the sky is dead, and the yellow turban should stand", the original content of the Nanhua Old Immortal who came to give Zhang Jiaotianshu to the world, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei don't know, can he Liu Che not worry?

I hadn't thought about this aspect carefully before, but when he really involved the military formation or maybe it was related, the content of the Book of Heaven couldn't help but cause Liu Che to reverie.

The three books of heaven, earth and man, are it too much to involve the formation of thousands of people or something? The rumored immortality of the Yellow Turban Lux may become a reality, so what's impossible?

Liu Che always felt that it was reasonable to worry a little more, and he must not be led astray by Zhang Fei and Guan Yu.
