Da Zhou, Jiangning County, in a compound of the Demon Slaying Mansion.

Lin Xiu was naked, holding a half-human-high stone, floating up and down.

Make sure that every muscle in the hands, legs, chest, back, etc., is thoroughly stretched.

After doing this for half an hour, he put down the stone, twisted the towel soaked in the potion on the side, and wiped every inch of skin on his body.

The potion soaked the skin and irritated the pores, and after thirty breaths, he felt a new qi machine in his body being generated on the top of his head, and he hurriedly ran this qi machine.

It's just that the qi machine has been in the body for nine weeks, and still can't find the qi sense.

"If you can't generate a sense of qi, you can't break through the blood refining realm, so you can't continue to stay in the Demon Slaying Mansion."

Lin Xiu whispered gloomily.

He is not from this world, it has been 16 years since he traveled, and the previous 16 years were muddy, he was a farmer who had no father and no mother and was raised by his second uncle since he was a child.

It wasn't until half a month ago that I heard the bad news that my second uncle was killed by demons, and in my grief, I broke the mystery in the womb and retrieved the memories of my previous life.

Three years ago, the second uncle spent a lot of money and connections to send him to the Demon Slaying Mansion, only hoping that Lin Xiu could become a martial artist in the future, be an upright official of the Demon Slaying Mansion, and eat the official family meals from now on, no longer have to farm and cultivate land like them, nor do they have to take the road they have walked, and suffer the hardships they have suffered.

It's just that the Demon Slayer Mansion has regulations.

Anyone who enters the Demon Slaying Mansion will not be able to break through from forging the body to refining blood within three years, so they will have to leave the Demon Slaying Mansion.

Now, the three-year period has arrived.

In the afternoon, I will go to Xingwutang to do a qualification test.

But his qualifications are too ordinary, and he is still stuck in the forging realm.

If you can't break through the forging body, not only can you not continue to stay in the Demon Slaying Mansion, but you are also sorry for the investment and expectations of the dead second uncle.

"Panel."

Lin Xiu brought up the panel in his mind.

This is the golden finger that belonged to him that only awakened in his mind this morning.

A gray panel appeared in front of him, imperceptible to others.

On the panel, there are lines of black characters in Song font:

[Dragon Elephant Breathing Work: 8674/10000/Forging Peak]

[Did it cost a tael of silver to simplify the discovery exercise "Dragon Elephant Breathing Gong"? 】

Dragon Elephant Breathing Gong is a method of refining the skin, tendons, bones, blood, and internal organs of the body through special breathing and movements, so as to strengthen the body and produce qi and blood in the body.

It is also Lin Xiu, the only martial arts he learned in the Demon Slaying Mansion.

There is a rule in the Demon Slaying Mansion that martial artists who have just entered the Demon Slaying Mansion can practice a martial art before they reach the blood refining realm.

And the function of the panel, is very simple.

That's simplification.

As long as the money is sufficient, he can help Lin Xiu simplify any of the exercises he has learned, so that he can improve his proficiency in the exercises through the simplified cultivation methods.

It's a pity that the Demon Slayer Mansion has nothing else to increase his income except for food and shelter.

Martial artists in the forging period cannot receive tasks, and there is no money.

Lin Xiu is now penniless.

After the death of the second uncle, his family did not have much money to spare.

One tael of silver is a thousand yuan, which is equivalent to a thousand yuan in the previous life.

Whether in the past life or now, these two pieces of silver are not a small amount.

How can I get a tael of silver before the afternoon?

Lin Xiu clasped his hands to his chest and fell into deep thought.

A penny is hard to beat a hero.

"Hi hey, Brother Lin Xiu......"

But at this moment, a boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes and a green brocade robe walked over.

"In case of a week? How do you carry your baggage? But what's the matter? ”

Lin Xiu knew this person, and he entered the Demon Slaying Mansion at the same time as himself.

Like Lin Xiu, his cultivation has also been stuck in the forging body for a long time.

Among the same batch of people who entered the Demon Slaying Mansion, they had a good relationship with themselves in case of a week.

Hearing Lin Xiu's words, Wan Zhou said helplessly: "In the morning, I went to Xingwu Hall to test my qualifications, but unfortunately I didn't pass it, and I can't continue to stay in the Demon Slaying Mansion, and now I'm here to say goodbye to you." ”

When Lin Xiu heard this, he was silent, and after a while he asked, "Then what are your plans in the future?" ”

Wan Zhou said: "I can only go back to inherit my father's family property." ”

Envy, you still have your father's family property to inherit...... Lin Xiu smiled and said, "Congratulations, I wish you a smooth journey." ”

Wan Zhou nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Lin, I hope you can pass the qualification test smoothly, I'll go first......"

Lin Xiu thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Don't worry, you and I are so bad friends, and now we are going to separate, I will invite you to a meal." ”

In case I looked up at the sun in the sky, it was exactly noon.

He came over and said, "Okay, I'm hungry too." ”

Lin Xiu suddenly said: "I don't have any money on me, why don't you lend me two taels of silver first?" ”

Wan Zhou's footsteps immediately stopped, and he said in astonishment: "You have a treat, ask me to borrow silver?" ”

Lin Xiu spread his hands and said, "You know, I'm a poor ghost. ”

Wan Zhou scratched his head, tilted his head to the side, and said, "Hey, hey, the weather is really good today, that Brother Lin doesn't know where to go, and I was looking for him to say goodbye......"

After speaking, he turned around and left without looking back.

Lin Xiu lowered his head and looked at the two taels of silver in his hand, raised his hand in the direction where the figure disappeared, and said, "Brother, I thank you......"

……

……

After a while.

Lin Xiu returned to his room, held the silver in his hand, and said silently: "Simplify the dragon elephant breathing work." ”

In the blink of an eye, the tael of silver in his hand disappeared.

The words on the panel in my mind have undergone a subtle change.

【Dragon Elephant Breathing Power Simplified ......】

【…… Dragon Elephant Breathing Power →Breathing ......]

"Huh?"

Before Lin Xiu could figure out what the situation was, he saw the data of the dragon elephant's breathing power on the panel, which was constantly changing with his breathing:

Dragon elephant breathing work: 8690/10000/forging peak.

Although it is not one breath, the data changes once.

But in general, he doesn't need to train, and the number of dragon elephant breathing work on the panel will continue to rise as he continues to breathe.

At the same time, in the body, the sleeping qi is also waking up one by one.

The dragon elephant breathing work itself is to awaken the sleeping qi in the human body.

Lin Xiu felt that in his body, a warm force poured from the top of his head, sinking into the dantian, and then wandering among the hundreds of limbs.

In this process, I didn't feel a trace of pain.

You must know that when you practice the Dragon Elephant Breathing Gong, your body will always be in unbearable pain.

"These are much more qi than the qi generated during my usual cultivation."

"I didn't expect that I could practice by breathing, and the whole process was painless. This hanging is too exaggerated, but it is to exaggerate to make people happy. ”

Lin Xiu was shocked and excited.

After a stick of incense, the dragon elephant's breathing power became: 9527/10000/forging peak.

"Bang bang!"

Just then, there was a loud knock on the door outside.

Then, an urging cry came:

"Lin Xiu, Sect Leader Wang asked us to go to Xingwutang to take the qualification test, you come out quickly, it's too late, we have to be cleaned up."

As soon as the voice fell, the man's footsteps walked away.

It's just noon, and I didn't expect the qualification test to be carried out so soon.

Didn't you say a good afternoon?

Lin Xiu was surprised, he almost broke through the forging body.

I had been running the qi machine for nine weeks just now, but I still couldn't find the qi sense.

If you don't have a sense of qi, you can't count as breaking through to the blood refining realm.

But now, there is not much time left for him.

Push the door and go out.

Xingwutang.

Lin Xiu stood in the last row of the queue that underwent the qualification test.

Ten people in a row.

There were more than a hundred people at the scene.

An elder with white hair and beard, wearing a white robe, walked out of Xingwutang.

This elder is the head of Xingwu Hall.

He said with a serious expression to all the martial artists present in the forging period:

"After three years of cultivation, it's time to test the results, the task of the Demon Slaying Mansion is to kill demons and eliminate demons, protect the realm and the people, and only when you go to the Blood Refining Realm can you have the qualifications to defend the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"After three years of cultivation, I still can't break through the blood refining realm, which means that it is not suitable for the path of martial arts......

"The most intuitive manifestation of the Blood Refining Realm is the release of the qi machine, which is also one of its miracles."

"Now, you punch the old man in the air and see if you can touch the corner of the old man's clothes, and if you can touch it, you will pass the test and officially become a member of my Demon Slaying Mansion......"

"I hope you don't disappoint me and turn it into the worst class I've ever tried."

As soon as the words were spoken, the test for more than a hundred martial artists began.

Takeo, who stood in the first row, was the first to run the gas engine......

Dragon elephant breathing power: 9890/10000/forging peak.

When the former platoon martial artist was doing the qualification test, Lin Xiu breathed heavily.

He didn't make too exaggerated expressions and movements, and he just looked nervous.

There were several martial artists who had failed the test, and they walked past Lin Xiu with a dejected expression.

In this life, they no longer need to practice the Dragon Elephant Breathing Gong, and they no longer need to endure the torture of Wang Jiaotou in various ways, as well as the unpalatable meals in the canteen, but they will also leave the Demon Slaying Mansion forever.

Seeing this scene, many people fell silent.

Lin Xiu closed his eyes and increased his breathing.

……

"Next, Lin Xiu!"

Hearing someone shouting his name, Lin Xiu opened his eyes, and then saw the white-robed elder standing in front of him.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the panel floating in front of him:

Dragon Elephant Breathing Power: 20/30000/Early stage of blood refining.

Lin Xiu was overjoyed, and then noticed that the skin on his fist became red at some point, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

The qi and blood in the body are thick and restrained.

Even the five senses became clear and thorough, and the noisy conversation of the martial artists in his ears became louder and louder.

There is a new force scurrying around in the body, trying to break out of the body.

He stretched his limbs and activated the qi in his body.

After a cycle.

Suddenly.

The sensation of qi appears in the palm of the hand.

raised his hand and slapped it on the elder's white robe in the air.

Bang!

One of the corners of the white robe cracked, making a crisp cracking sound.

Suddenly.

The scene was silent.

The martial artists who exchanged their heads and ears all opened their mouths wide, and subconsciously showed an expression of eating melons, watching this scene.

"Hehe, yes, just entered the blood refining realm, and it has such power, ru! Child! Can! Teach! ”

The elder was full of black lines, his face was expressionless, and his eyes were squinted, like a Tibetan fox.

"But although you have broken through the blood refining realm, your strength is not accurate enough, and in the days to come, you must work hard in this direction."

"Also, you have been stuck in the Forging Body Realm for a long time, and you have barely broken through just now, which shows that your martial arts qualifications are there, but not much. In the future, we must not be impetuous and mislead ourselves. ”

"Yes, thank you for your advice."

Lin Xiu arched his hand and looked down at the black cloth shoes to hide the embarrassment in his heart.

At the same time, exhale heavily.

The pressure in my heart poured out all at once.

"At the end of this test, there were thirty-eight people who passed. Martial artists of the Blood Refining Realm who have passed the test can go to Longwu Pavilion with the old man and choose three exercises for free. ”
