At the same time, in a certain quiet room of the Wuwang Mansion, two guards stood at the door.

This is the practice room that Zhao Hongming ordered to arrange alone, the whole room is taller and larger than other houses, and the floor of the room is paved with diamond rock, which is extremely hard.

You can let the martial arts wield it.

There was only one futon in the practice room, and there was no other superfluous furniture.

At this time, Zhao Hongming was sitting cross-legged on the futon, his eyes staring at a certain place in his sight: "Martial arts shattered Yue, break through!" ”

In an instant, the personal attribute panel changed, and the level of Shattered Yue's martial arts jumped to the second realm.

[Name: Zhao Hongming]

[Cultivation Exercises: Eight Desolations and Immortal Skills-Martial Courage (13331/100000)]

[Martial Arts: Open Heaven Second Realm (28/2000), Desolate Secret Walk (11422/∞), Shattered Yue Second Realm (61/3000), Demon Suppression First Realm (85/2000), Mountain Moving First Realm (565/1000)]

[Breakthrough Martial Arts: None]

[Today's practice time: 4 hours]

[Constitution: Spirit Fetus]

[Root Bone Bonus: 4.0]

When Wu Qi was training, Zhao Hongming was not idle, and concentrated on the cultivation of martial arts.

After these days of hard work, the cultivation progress of both the exercises and martial arts has increased, and three of the martial arts have reached the level of breakthrough.

In his opinion, these three martial arts will represent the supreme sword technique, the supreme explosion, and the supreme defense. After the continuous optimization and strengthening of [Heaven rewards diligence], it has reached a perfect level.

Even if they gather the martial artists in this world and make them spend a lifetime of learning, they may not be able to deduce such martial arts.

If any martial arts master sees these martial arts, he will be shocked and thrown to the ground.

This is the power of heaven to reward hard work.

However, Zhao Hongming did not have much joy, as his cultivation continued to improve, he gradually knew what Emperor Jian'an meant when he told him that the path of martial arts was broken.

The broken path of this martial arts does not mean that the martial arts cannot be cultivated to a certain extent, but that after cultivating to a certain level, even if the martial arts are improved, the changes it can bring are very limited.

For example, if a martial artist has cultivated a martial art to the point of being superb, no matter how much he improves by ten points or one point, the appearance of killing people is not much different, and there is no change inside and outside.

It feels like there is an upper limit to Zhao Hongming, nailing the upper limit of the world's martial arts there, and no one can surpass it.

After Zhao Hongming broke through the three martial arts this time, he found that the power of the improvement was one or two percent less than the previous breakthrough.

He didn't feel much about the Martial Courage Realm now, but he had an intuition that after he broke through to the Creation Realm, this feeling of "breaking" would be extremely obvious.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongming did not feel frustrated or unfair, but aroused his competitive spirit.

With the [Heavenly Reward] here, he is confident that the value of this upper limit will definitely be able to break through the past.

As he said before, maybe one Eight Desolations Immortal Skill is not safe, so then practice more immortal martial arts.

If you really can't do it, you can also try a method other than martial arts.

He vaguely remembered that the cultivation methods used by the old Dao of the Immortal Gate and the Luling Wang family were not quite the same as the conventional cultivation techniques he had seen.

National fortune, family secret methods, and immortal martial arts methods are all means that he can continue to practice and borrow.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongming's mood jumped twice and became enthusiastic.

The muscles of his body crackled and crumbled.

In particular, the muscles between the two arms, like many rats lying on his arms, each muscle bulged high, and it seemed to contain destructive power.

Zhao Hongming opened his mouth and spat out a breath of burning breath, and looked at his arms as thick as thighs.

He knew that this was not because the muscles of his body had grown like this, but because of the qi and blood contained in his body and the true intention caused by the special use of martial arts.

Zhao Hongming didn't have to try, he could roughly guess the power in it.

He calmed the emotions in his heart and stopped the [Shattered Yue] martial art.

The swollen arms gradually receded, returning to their normal appearance, and walked towards the door.

After Gao Yanshi collected and sorted out all the information for today's day, he walked quickly to Zhao Hongming's practice room.

He stood at Zhao Hongming's door and did not disturb, but patiently guarded.

He is also a martial artist, and he knows that the most taboo thing for a martial artist in the process of cultivation is to be interrupted and disturbed.

Fortunately, he didn't let him wait outside the door for too long, and Zhao Hongming just finished this morning's cultivation.

Squeak!

The door opened.

Zhao Hongming walked out of the practice room with his upper body bare.

His skin was red, and in the slightly cold air, a trace of white air came out.

Gao Yanshi, who was guarding outside the door, took out a long robe from the hand of the guard as if he had been prepared, and put it on Zhao Hongming's body skillfully.

Zhao Hongming asked casually: "Did you find it over there in the Imperial City Division of the Great Liang?" ”

Gao Yanshi replied: "Back to Your Highness, the Imperial City Division has already found out, and there is no problem." ”

Zhao Hongming walked out in front of the Ming Dynasty, and there was a small garden outside the practice room, it was autumn at this time, and the chrysanthemums inside were in full bloom.

Gao Yanshi lowered his head and followed closely.

"Tell me about it."

Gao Yanshi replied, "Zhang Yi, as His Highness guessed, is not from an ordinary background. He is the same disciple of Su Qing of Zhao Guo and a disciple of Yunmeng Sect. Now he has a fellow senior sister by his side, and the two call each other brother and sister. ”

Zhao Hongming asked curiously, "What kind of martial arts sect is this Yunmeng Sect?" ”

"It is an ordinary martial arts sect in the Chu State, but unlike other martial arts forces, the Yunmeng Sect does not pay attention to martial arts cultivation, but instead pays attention to teaching disciples to practice tactics and the art of war. It is said that the cultivators in this sect are all people who are lowly born, have poor martial arts talents, and are smart and clever. ”

Zhao Hongming smiled: "It's really an interesting sect." In the future, there will be a chance for this king to visit this Yunmeng Sect Master. ”

"Your Highness, the Yunmeng Sect is gone." Gao Yanshi said.

"Well, that's a pity."

It's just a martial arts force, Zhao Hongming didn't think much about it, waved his hand and said, "You go down and do the rest." ”

"Yes, Your Highness, the minions are retired."

Gao Yanshi bowed his head and withdrew from the small garden.

Zhao Hongming stood alone in the chrysanthemum bush, and he had a lot of secrets, so he had to deal with it carefully many times.

Zhang Yi is certainly talented, and he is not afraid of it, but if he wants to do things to him more confidently in the future, he can't be ignorant of this person.

Otherwise, he was clearly understood by his subordinates, but he didn't know anything about his subordinates, and this martial king should be too derelict in his duties.

Soldiers have long said that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will win all battles, and the same is true for those who control them.

Zhao Hongming felt that it was not a big mistake to be careful, and it would be of great use in the future.

Time is like flowing water, and time is like shuttling.

Two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

The temperature in Yingjun gradually decreases and turns cold, and after the busy autumn season, the Yinghe River has become much colder.

In these three months (plus the previous time), after Zhao Hongming's advance preparations, he earned enough silver taels, and in the Wang family's transactions, he obtained a large number of armor and bows and crossbows, which did not delay Wu Qi's progress in training in the suburbs.

But the consumption of nearly 1,000 people is not something that a small Mingjiao can afford.

Even if Zhao Hongming used his strength to sweep away the five relatively notorious martial arts forces, he still had some shortcomings.

He calculated a little, and the materials in his hand, whether it was a wish stone or gold and silver property, could only last for another month.

It just so happened that with his penance in the past two months, it was almost enough, and he could find a way to truly control this county country.

Zhao Hongming's consciousness moved, and he called up the [Heavenly Dao Reward for Diligence] martial arts panel, and information about his personal cultivation surfaced.

[Name: Zhao Hongming]

[Cultivation Exercises: Eight Desolations and Immortal Skills-Martial Courage One Product (100061/100000)]

[Martial Arts: Open Heaven Second Realm (49/2000), Desolate Secret Walk (13412/∞), Shattered Yue Second Realm (257/3000), Demon Suppression First Realm (188/2000), Mountain Moving First Realm (754/1000)]

[Breakthrough Martial Arts: Eight Desolations of Immortality]

[Today's practice time: 11 hours]

[Constitution: Spirit Fetus]

[Root Bone Bonus: 4.0]

In two months, after realizing the upper limit of martial arts improvement, Zhao Hongming focused more on the cultivation of exercises.

At least from the current point of view, he has not found any signs that the Eight Desolation Immortal Skills have reached that "value".

Cultivating the Eight Desolations is more cost-effective than those martial arts.

After reaching the realm of martial arts, the Eight Desolation Immortal Skills still performed very steadily, and brought Zhao Hongming an advantage that was different from other martial arts.

One is the sincerity of the surging river and the continuous flow, which makes him show unexpected resilience in the process of fighting.

The other is the enhancement of the flesh and blood of the body, and the damage received can be recovered in an instant.

These two items alone have benefited Zhao Hongming a lot.

The eight wildernesses are not old, and they are worthy of the name of "health preservation".

Zhao Hongming straightened his mind, and a thought moved in his heart: "Eight desolations are immortal, break through!" ”

A sense of familiarity hits.

After a few breaths, Zhao Hongming clearly saw that in the [Heavenly Dao Reward for Diligence] attribute panel, the information on the cultivation exercises had changed.

[Cultivation Exercises: Eight Desolations and Immortal Skills-Martial Courage Second Product (61/400000)]

And at the moment when the information on the attribute panel changed, Zhao Hongming's body trembled, and his whole body was numb.

There seemed to be a sudden thunder in the body, like a spring thunder exploding, containing a certain vitality, which made Zhao Hongming deafening.

The faint aroma of grass diffused on Zhao Hongming's body, and along with it, there was also the cyan mist.

This time the cyan mist had become a little thicker, no longer as thin as before.

Zhao Hongming's ears fell into a kind of silence after a thunderclap.

He couldn't hear any other voices from the outside world, he could only hear his own thunderous heartbeat.

Every sound is like a drumbeat, full of rhythm and exuberant vitality.

The bridge between heaven and earth, which he had visualized, had extended and become more majestic.

The immortal truth that flows on it is like a big blue river, rushing towards the sea.

Zhao Hongming opened his eyes, and the cyan mist around him condensed, and he felt unprecedented peace of mind.

He stood up lightly from the futon, standing on the ground with his bare feet and motionless.

Zhao Hongming put all his mind into it, recalled the breathing method at the beginning of the Eight Desolations Immortal Gong, and began to breathe seriously.

His face gradually gained a layer of ruddy luster, as if carved by warm jade, and he felt that his body was full of strength, as if he was one with the earth.

It was obviously close to the beginning of winter, and he stood on the cold stone face, his feet were warm, and there was no discomfort.

Zhao Hongming's breathing was steady, his eyes froze, and his hands pinched the law with one hand according to what he thought in his heart.

Suddenly, the cyan mist that surrounded him, as if he had received an order, gathered behind Zhao Hongming.

The head of a man like him slowly took shape.

This head is the size of Zhao Hongming alone, and it looks lifelike and majestic.

Once the skull was formed, it slowly levitated behind him, and in the process of levitating upward, the neck and shoulders extended one after another, as well as eighteen arms.

From a distance, it looked like a huge god who was looking at the heavens and the earth had descended, gently protecting Zhao Hongming in the crook of his arm.

At this point, Zhao Hongming knew that he had reached the limit of what he could do.

But this alone is enough to shock the world.

Eighteen arms means that he can superimpose eighteen times his strength, plus the Shattered Yue martial arts, and burst out in one combination, which is enough to kill the martial arts of the third rank and the fourth grade.

In this Ying County, except for the ancestor of the Wang family, he has never heard of anyone who can reach the cultivation of the three grades of martial arts.

The ancestor of the Wang family is very old, and his qi and blood have decayed a lot, even if he has the cultivation of the three grades of martial arts, he can play a few percent now, and it is also an unknown number.

That is, it starts at this moment.

He doesn't have anyone to fear in Ying County anymore.

Martial King Zhao Hongming is not just a king of false names, the word "Wu" lives up to its name.

……

Meanwhile.

In the artificial lake of the Wang family, in front of the bronze ancient gate, there are four people.

The county guard Chen Shenghai, the ancestor of the Wang family, Wang Jingzhi, the head of the Wang family, and an old Taoist who was dressed in shabby clothes.

"Dao Chief, everything we want is ready, right?"

The old Taoist smiled and said, "Of course you are ready, I will not drop the chain at this time." ”

As he spoke, he took out a spirit banner and shook it in his hand.

Soon the mysterious characters embroidered on the spirit banner began to light up, revealing a chilling aura.

"If the Dao collapses today, the Spirit Gathering Vessel is not easy to make, and it is thanks to the support of the Wang family and the county guard." Lao Dao said with a smile: "Using the way of the Wang family's ancient immortal array and the essence of tens of thousands of people, Lao Dao I can refine such a piece." Success or failure is all up to now. ”

After speaking, the old Taoist priest's face became serious, he threw the spirit flag forward, and shook it with a small flag in his hand.

Suddenly, the spirit banner was in the void, and the banner was unfolded, and in front of the bronze ancient gate, it shook together with the gesture of the old Taoist.

Every time it was shaken, there seemed to be a majestic diffusion of spiritual power.

The runes on the bronze door began to flicker.

I was sick over the weekend, and I thought it was better to go at my own pace and not be so overdrawn. I'm not a speed writer, and forcing myself to write can sometimes backfire. It is still necessary to save some energy, deal with the next job, and balance the two.
