Chapter 62: A Higher Level of Qi

The next day, before going to hell, Zhang Su again sought Hongyan's help.

"We've got to summon the Red Flame." Zhang Su asked Lianwu to help.

“?” Lianwu didn't understand.

"I'm going to Mt. Kagura." Zhang Su said.

“!” Lianwu was anxious.

"Miss Lianwu," Zhang Su squatted down and said seriously, "I want to go and destroy the demons, because I already said that I would spend my life here with you that day, so I must eliminate the external threat." ”

"......" Lian Wu sighed.

As the shrine maiden of Anxin-in, she crouched next to the crack of the day, her hands flapping lightly in the air, hoping that this would summon the gods of Anxin-in.

She summoned the red flame as she turned her head to look at Zhang Su.

Lian Wu's mood was very complicated, she didn't want Zhang Su to go to Kagura Mountain.

Distant peaks are clearly visible here, and the summits are the gateways to hell where the sea of fire and the shattered sun are intertwined.

But they live in the shadow of Mt. Kagura, and it's useless to pretend to turn a blind eye. If the gates of hell are not sealed, the peace of mind will only be self-deception.

She vaguely heard the sound of Red Flame digging into the tunnel.

“…… I don't know if I can defeat hell, I just know that the end may be a failure, but I want to fight for the chance of resistance, after all, such an opportunity may never come again. Zhang Su stared at the crack.

In his previous life, he was defeated and everyone was killed, and he looked into the distance, where others were still living their lives.

Saho, Natsuki, Reo, Murohana, Katy, Makomi, Reina...... They...... They will all be slaughtered by demons, and everyone will be dismantled.

There is no way to escape, and there are 66 gates of hell scattered all over the world, and there is no safety at all.

In order to defend his dignity, he has to fight against demons this time and completely seal the gates of hell in Kagurayama.

This will at least create a relatively safe area, and try to establish a stronghold before the natural disaster strikes, and resist the onslaught of the demon tide.

“!” Lian Wu clapped her hands, "Gods...... The gods ......" she whispered, preparing sweets and flowers.

The crack flickered, and the sound of red flames came from it.

"I'm busy, digging tunnels, what's the matter?"

“!” Lian Wu looked at Zhang Su.

“…… I want to know this. Zhang Su took out the witch's containment log and showed it to Red Flame.

"This, what's wrong?" Red Flame doesn't seem to be a stranger to logs.

"I wonder, where does the power of this book come from?" Zhang Su asked.

Red Flame was silent for a moment. Lianwu was a little curious.

"You've probably noticed that when you use it, everything is wrapped in amber streamers." Red Flame muttered.

"Yes, is that ......"

"That's what I'm doing, but I'm working on this side of the spirit world, and it's actually making materials and projecting them into the real world, so fast that they can't be seen by the naked eye, and do what you want." Red Flame said.

"What about containment debris? Why is debris generated? Zhang Su asked.

Red Flame sighed.

“…… That's a currency I've prepared, after all, I'm sworn to the Anxin Temple, and my power is bound to the entire Anxin Temple, and it's closely related to its rise and fall, and I have to use fragments to show the progress of the Anxin Temple. Red Flame said sullenly.

"It's hard to imagine what kind of person can bind a witch like you to Anxinin." Zhang Su groaned.

"Or is it because of ...... This guy ......" Red Flame stretched out a small hand from the crack and pointed it at the lotus mist.

“?” Lian Wu was puzzled. She had been confused.

"Yuehuaji." Zhang Su reacted, "Lord Red Flame is the real caretaker of Yuehua Ji. ”

"The people of the Nine Seats Council of the Witches did it, and I was forced to stay here because of the effect of the oath. The more you build this place, the stronger I will be. That's why I got you a copy of the Witch Containment Log, and you get the shards, and I'll help you build the facility. Red Flame muttered.

In his previous life, Hongyan didn't show up to help, but just hid in the tunnel at the other end of the crack and dug day and night, secretly helping Zhang Su work.

Even a few days before the natural disaster, Zhang Su found that the effect of the log had disappeared.

Maybe Red Flame has sensed the danger and directly hid in the tunnel and didn't ask about the world.

“…… I would like to get further help, and if I continue to build and improve the Anxin Hospital, I may be able to help you, Lord Hongyan, as well. Zhang Su said.

"No, no, your current job is good, you are much better than the guardians of the Anxin House in the past. At this rate, I can dig a tunnel 30 meters wide in 5 years, which is enough to stay for a while. Red Flame said lightly.

"Is that enough? 30 m ...... Not as wide as our garden. Zhang Su said.

"But it's safe, your 500 million square kilometers of planet is already the target of hell's invasion, and soon the entire planet will be destroyed, and this 30-meter-wide tunnel will be the only safe place." Red Flame disagreed.

Zhang Su took a deep breath.

“…… I want to fight, I want to try to close the gates of hell, even one, just this one, I want to try, I want to know if the demon is really invincible. Because according to the obvious trend now, the devil will eat us all, and the earth will become a slaughterhouse of hell. I want to try to resist. Zhang Su said.

“!” Lian Wu was taken aback by Zhang Su's serious attitude, she held her breath, and then she also turned around, squatted down and looked at the crack, and worshiped the god Hongyan, "......!" ”

Hongyan looked at Lian Wu, and then at Zhang Su.

“…… What do you want to do? Red Flame asked coldly.

"I'll go to the gates of hell, we have at least a chance to fire a shot now, the human defense plan is still complete, and Dongming's economy is still big enough to organize an expedition. Others are still on the sidelines, and I want to be the first to take the initiative. Zhang Su said slowly.

In the Third Demon War, humanity has sealed 34 gates of hell, but they have run out of ammunition.

People are lucky enough to hope that the Fourth Demon War won't come so soon.

But Zhang Su bitterly understood that natural disasters were not far away.

"What if you win once!" Red Flame's hand reached out and clenched into an angry fist, "Demons are endless, and your planet is just one of the countless worlds that Hell has to conquer!" It's like a stumbling block! Even the spirit realm is the target of demonic invasion, only tunnels, tunnels......"

"But Anxinin is also your home, isn't it?" Zhang Su said.

"......" Hongyan fell silent.

"Come out at least once and see the place. Although you can see it with the vision of the spirit world, I know that everything in the spirit world is foggy, and there are real ......colors here," Zhang Su said.

The crack widened slightly.

Red Flame poked his head out.

“!” Lotus Mist was the first time he saw the red flame, and Zhang Su also felt amazing.

Red Flame's face was petite and immature, but the gray-headed, almond-shaped black eyes looked curiously at the garden outside, and it looked particularly cute.

As Zhang Su said, Hongyan used to look at it from the perspective of the spiritual world, but now he can see the color of the material world.

It's beautiful...... Red Flame looked out at the garden that had been tended by the bees.

At the turn of spring and summer, flowers bloom, a scene of competition.

It's ordinary for others, but Red Flame has been digging tunnels for many years, and now it feels like a world away.

"~" Lotus Mist felt that the face of the god's red flame was dirty.

She took out her handkerchief and wiped it for Red Flame.

"Wait, you can't just ...... Yes...... I am a god! Hongyan wiped her face clean, and she puffed up.

"~" Lian Wu smiled.

Zhang Su remembered that it was not so small before, and it was not so dirty.

In her previous life, Hongyan was like a girl in her twenties, and she was scared back by the demonic aura when she came out for a turn.

It is estimated that because the Anxin Courtyard is still starting, Hongyan's size and body have been restored to that of a child, and he has dug tunnels diligently, leaving dirty traces.

The red flame burrowed back into the crack.

"It's beautiful outside, but there's demons, so it's not pretty." Red Flame said.

"I'll fight off the demons, so if you have more power, Lord Red Flame, be sure to grant it to me." Zhang Su requested.

Red Flame thought for a moment.

“…… The body of a witch is suitable for invoking magic, and the meridians of humans are suitable for luck. 'Qi' is the life energy that can resonate with the universe itself, and the universe hates witches, so witches can't be lucky. When qi is channeled through the body, you can feel that the muscles are strengthened and the organs are sound. Red Flame judged.

"Yes." Zhang Su was clear.

"Guanshi Futu is a basic qi-guided weapon, and for non-spirit craftsmen, they have done their best to do so. But you also need more strength. "Red Flame Road.

“…… I would like to hear about it. Zhang Su said.

The aura of his previous life was already very strong, but he always felt that he had hit the upper limit.

Even if she cultivates day and night, her strength is equivalent to that of a witch who breaks the position once at most.

This was also the limit of many human elites in the world at that time.

“…… In fact, most schools and trainers in the world have gone into the wrong place. They don't know the true use of qi, and you officials also pay more attention to the cultivation of witches, thinking that the training of humans is enough. In fact, humans can also become very strong. Red Flame explained.

"And what is the actual situation?" Zhang Su asked.

"According to my opinion, 'qi' can only exert stronger power when it is projected outward, and I have seen a force called 'Heavenly Army' in the spirit world, which is a human recruited by Godis, the Witch of Rank 9 Ascension, who have been given immortality, and who have honed their strength day and night, waiting for a decisive battle with demons. They...... It can release the breath of the whole body and wrap it around like armor! Red Flame spoke.

Godeth, the Ascended Witch who broke the throne 9 times, is also the second seat of the Witch's Nine-Seat Council.

She would send devout humans to the Spirit Realm, and it turned out that some of them had joined the Heavenly Army as a line of defense for the Spirit Witches.

Zhang Su finally understood Mi Xin.

So that's it!

“…… Whether it is a human body or a stick, there is a limit to the capacity of qi, and only by releasing them outwards is like wrapping around armor. Zhang Su suddenly realized.

In previous lives, there were many people who actively tried the extreme use of qi, but the method called "wrapping armor" was rare, probably because the practice of this technique was too difficult.

However, Zhang Su had no choice but to try.

"You can try the specific method yourself, and this is one of the few things I can teach you." Hongyan said, pausing, and she added, "...... Wait until you're done fighting the demons and come back to me. I hope you can really seal the gates of hell. ”

"Yes." Zhang Su said goodbye to the red flame, and the crack disappeared completely.

Gas...... Zhang Su stared at his palm.

At least one thing is confirmed, the previous life himself was far from exhausting this power. Establishing a strong qi circulation through the meridian system and breathing methods is just a mortal way.

Only by releasing the breath wrapped around the armor can the energy be released like a storm, and the endless qi in the body can be swept out.

At that time, the output was probably more than the witch who broke the position once, far higher than the upper limit of the previous life, and even could be seen by the witch who broke the position 9 times, which is amazing.

“!” Lian Wu suddenly took Zhang Su's hand and hooked it with his little thumb.

"Don't worry, I will cultivate stronger, and this extramural investigation will definitely be successful." Zhang Su and Lianwu swore an oath.

“!” Lian Wu pointed in the direction of the crack.

"Okay, just make an oath in front of Lord Red Flame, and wait until you have practiced your new skills before setting off!" Zhang Su nodded.

Now it's really inconvenient to fight with the devil without the hole cards, and the cultivation methods of human beings are far less diverse than those of witches, so it's good to use it.

In the eyes of most people, humans can't be stronger than witches who have broken their positions many times.

But Zhang Su can try.

“!” Lian Wu had to supervise Zhang Su's cultivation, because if he wasn't strong enough, he would be eaten by demons.

So when Zhang Su was doing push-ups, Lianwu was reading a book on Zhang Su's back, and Zhang Su felt that she was soft and gentle, which was really cherished.

After doing more than 1,000 times in the garden, Zhang Su suddenly saw Shui Rin appear in front of him in a few moments.

"Enlighten Lord Zhang Su, Li Yi Xin is here." Mizurin got down on one knee.

"I'll go see her." Zhang Su put down the lotus mist, and then walked to the door like a fly.

“…… It's strong......" Shui Li looked at Zhang Su's back.

"~" Lianwu was very happy, she had better Zhang Su be as tall as the Tyrant Demon, and burst the gate of hell with one punch.

Li Yixin drove her broken car up the mountain and took a duffel bag to Anxin Hospital.

"Yo, I'm here again!" Li Yixin greeted Zhang Su, "Director Edith entrusted us to come!" ”

"What, what are you going to do?" Zhang Su was curious.

The one-armed Wei Zhi came down from the other side.

"You're going to hell to beat the demons, we're here to help you get stronger." He said.
