Chapter 1: Can I Eat Blades?
Ye Nan lay on the bed in a daze, looking at the dilapidated roof above. As the memories in his mind continued to merge, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
He crossed over! From a college student to a disciple of the outer sect of the sect!
"Fortunately, I was an orphan in my previous life, so I don't have anything to worry about!" Ye Nan comforted himself in his heart, but thinking of his situation at this time, his little face with some bruises instantly turned into a bitter melon.
The previous owner of this body is also called Ye Nan, and he is a descendant of the Ye family in Jianglincheng. He never saw his parents since he was a child, and grew up with his grandfather. After his grandfather's death, he was sent to the Sword Casting Gate to become an outer disciple.
"There is only one fire spirit root, it's really wasteful!"
This is a martial artist's world, and the number of spiritual roots determines the cultivation qualifications of a martial artist. The more spiritual roots, the faster the absorption of heaven and earth spiritual energy, and the better the qualifications.
Ordinary martial artists have two spiritual roots, and they can absorb two different spiritual energies from heaven and earth at the same time. But Ye Nan only has one, and the speed of absorbing spiritual energy is only half that of others.
Most of the outer disciples who started with him at the beginning had been promoted to inner disciples, and he was still an outer disciple, and he was still the lowest level of existence in the outer sect, and he only had a double cultivation of the body refinement.
The Sword Forging Sect does not provide cultivation resources to outer disciples, and they have to rely on themselves to obtain them. Ye Nan's cultivation resources are all provided by the Ye family, but because his cultivation is too low, the resource supply sent by the Ye family every month will be snatched by other outer disciples, and this time is no exception.
"The qualifications were originally extremely poor, and the cultivation resources were robbed again, it seems that my current situation is extremely bad!" Ye Nan's little face slowly gloomy, especially after completely fusing yesterday's memories, he scolded even more:
"Li Tianhu!
The outer disciple who stole Ye Nan's resources was named Li Tianhu, a famous master among the outer disciples, and his cultivation had reached the fourfold peak of body refining, and he was only one step away from being promoted to an inner disciple.
Li Tianhu often bullied Ye Nan on weekdays, and his resources were robbed by him several times before. And yesterday, not only did he snatch away his resources, but he and other disciples stuffed the broken blade into their mouths and forced Ye Nansheng to swallow it.
Thinking of eating more than a pound of broken blades, Ye Nan's little face turned pale, and he finally understood why the original owner of this body died.
"Huh, no! After eating so many blades, my mouth and stomach should have been cut, why haven't I had anything to do?"
Ye Nan realized that something was wrong, felt it carefully, and found that there was nothing unusual in his mouth and body except for a slight tingling.
"What's going on?"
Ye Nan got up and got out of bed, moved his body, and found that he had no other injuries except for some bruises. Not only that, but my body seems to be full of energy.
"The skin is tougher, and the strength has also increased, and now I have at least four hundred and fifty or sixty pounds of strength!"
The refining realm is divided into nine weights, and each weight will increase the strength of two hundred catties, before Ye Nan was a two-fold refining body, and the strength was only four hundred catties.
"After eating those broken blades, not only did I not get hurt, but I increased my strength by fifty or sixty pounds, which is a little weird!"
Ye Nan's eyes narrowed slightly, thinking of a possibility, but it felt incredible.
"Eating a blade increases strength?"
Although he felt incredulous, there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart, after all, his current cultivation level was so low that it was desperate.
Turning his eyes to look at the humble room, Ye Nan then took out a short dagger from under the pillow.
"Boom!"
The voice was crisp and pleasant, but looking at the sharp blade, Ye Nan still felt a sore tooth.
"I don't know if I can bite it, if I can't bite it, I can only break the dagger and try again!" Ye Nan exhaled deeply, and then slowly put the short dagger into his mouth, his teeth closed.
"Click!"
The crisp cracking sound made Ye Nan stunned for a moment, and his heart surged. The short dagger is made of stainless steel, and its hardness can be imagined, Ye Nan only had the idea of trying it, but he didn't expect to really bite it off.
"Is my teeth too sharp? or is this dagger a fake?"
Thinking wildly in his heart, Ye Nan's teeth moved and he chewed.
"Click!
The sound of the steel breaking made people's teeth sore, and the pain caused by the blade cutting the mouth made Ye Nan gasp.
"Mom @#Β₯%!yes&%#ηθ΄§, my %#ε΄θ¦θ’«ε²ηδΊ!"
After cursing inarticulately, Ye Nan was ruthless and swallowed the short blade.
"Ah!!h
The pain of the splinters cutting his throat made Ye Nan's whole body tremble, and cold sweat broke out.
"It hurts so much!!"
There is a faint regret in my heart, but the matter has come to this point, and I can only resign myself to fate.
A trace of blood flowed out of his mouth, and his stomach was as painful as a knife, Ye Nan felt how idiot he was at this time!
Why didn't I break the blade into pieces and swallow it!
The severe pain made Ye Nan not have time to think about it, so he hurriedly sat cross-legged on the ground, his palms sealed.
"Whew!"
After stabilizing his mind, Ye Nan frantically ran the aura in his body and cultivated.
"Sizzle!"
A reddish glowing fire aura lingered around Ye Nan, and with his exhalation and inhalation, it entered his veins.
As Ye Nan entered the cultivation state, the sharp pain in his body slowly weakened, until after a stick of incense, the pain disappeared completely, and it was accompanied by a feeling of numbness, as if there was a trace of warmth flowing in his muscles and bones, which was extremely comfortable.
After a full hour, the fire aura outside Ye Nan's body slowly dissipated.
"You can really refine blades!!
Ye Nan's eyes opened, and the slightest color of ecstasy flickered.
"My skin seems to be tougher again, the level has not increased, it is still the second level of refining, but the strength has increased again, now I am afraid that it is four hundred and eighty or ninety pounds!"
Every time a martial artist in the Body Refining Realm rises by one weight, he will increase his strength by two hundred catties. It is very rare that the realm has not been improved, but the strength has increased.
With this strange ability, although he didn't know what would happen in the future, it was enough to make Ye Nan ecstatic at this time.
"The blade not only increased my strength, but the originally cut mouth was also restored to its original state, could it be that the ability to refine the blade can also restore the injury?"
Rubbing his chin, Ye Nan's eyes flickered.
After thinking about it for a while, I still couldn't understand why I had such a strange skill in plain detail, so I had to give up at the moment.
"Take a step, look at a step, at least for me now, it is beneficial and harmless!"
Ye Nan immediately looked at the remaining half-cut dagger, and a bright smile was drawn on the corner of his mouth.
Before I knew it, the sun was already rising, and the golden sunlight fell on the figure sitting cross-legged on the bed through the broken window lattice. The slightest fire aura still lingers, rendering the room gorgeous and dazzling.
"Whew!"
The fire aura converged into two streams of air, and after being swallowed by Ye Nan, he opened his eyes again.
"Short daggers, sabers, bronze mirrors...... It's incredible that these metal products can be refined!"
Ye Nan spent several hours refining all the metal objects in the room, and the final result was that the increase in the strength of the short dagger and the saber was the most obvious, while the bronze mirror and other miscellaneous objects could also be increased, but the effect was too poor.
"Now my strength should be six hundred and twenty or thirty catties, which is stronger than the Triple Martial Artist of Body Refining!"
As for the time from swallowing the blade to now, it has only been a day's work, and his strength has increased by more than two hundred catties, this terrifying effect has made Ye Nan almost roar out with excitement.
"Strength! Strength!! only strength can keep me from being trampled on, and only strength can make me get dignity!!"
Ye Nan clenched his fists tightly, his eyes dazzling.
"It's almost noon, and after going to the martial arts arena to practice, I'm going to perform miscellaneous tasks!"
Looking at the time, Ye Nan didn't stay any longer, got up and walked out the door.
Located in the Broken Blade Mountain Range, adjacent to the Demon Forest, the Sword Forging Gate is one of the five major sects of the Apocalypse Star, with tens of thousands of disciples, and is the supreme overlord of a radius of thousands of miles.
The disciples in the Sword Casting Sect are divided into four categories, outer disciples, inner disciples, core disciples, and personal disciples.
Among them, the outer disciples are not considered to be the people of the Sword Casting Sect in the true sense, and the Sword Casting Sect will not provide them with cultivation resources such as pills, on the contrary, they are responsible for all the miscellaneous work in the Sword Casting Sect.
The Outer Gate Martial Arts Arena is a refining venue specially opened up by the Sword Casting Sect for the disciples of the Outer Gate, and each time you enter, you have to pay a fee of five gold coins for the use.
Among them, there will be an inner disciple to teach every month, as well as a force measuring column to test strength, and an alloy dummy to practice martial arts.
When Ye Nan came to the martial arts arena, there were already a lot of people gathered in the arena. He touched it from his bosom and pulled out a small bag, which contained more than a dozen gold coins.
These gold coins were exchanged for medicine by him last month, and they were hidden in the room by him before, so they were not snatched by Li Tianhu and others.
The entrance fee for the martial arts arena is very high, Ye Nan rarely came here to practice except for helping people come here to do miscellaneous work, and today he mainly wants to see how much his strength has increased.
"With the ability to devour metal, I'm not afraid that I won't be able to earn gold coins!"
At that moment, he gritted his teeth, paid five gold coins, and walked into the martial arts arena.
At this moment, in the center of the martial arts arena, the outer disciples gathered in groups of three or five, chatting enthusiastically.
"Hey, I just heard Yang Huai say that he and Li Tianhu robbed that waste again yesterday!"
"But no! I heard that not only did he rob him of his cultivation resources, but he also forced that guy to swallow more than a pound of blades!"
"Tsk, Li Tianhu, these guys are really ruthless! Swallow a pound of blades, and then no one will die!"
"It seems that the waste is going to stop for a while, but it has only suffered Senior Sister Li Ting. As soon as that waste is injured, there will be no one to help you with the chores!"
"Ha Luha! It's not it! Senior Sister Li Ting, the waste doesn't come, you have to do the tiring work of wiping the force measuring column yourself!"
When several people talked about the worst, they all laughed at one of the girls.
The girl had a beautiful face, red lips and white teeth, but some freckles on her face were beautiful. At this moment, hearing everyone laughing, the willow eyebrows were slightly raised, and there was a trace of disdain on his face:
"Hmph, although that waste is a child of the family, but it is only a spiritual root qualification, thinking that helping Miss Ben do miscellaneous work can capture the heart, it is really a toad who wants to eat swan meat!"
There was a sneer on the corner of Li Ting's mouth, but after glancing at the bucket and rag next to her, she was thinking about which outside disciple she would find to be the boss.
Li Ting started late, and her appearance was not outstanding among the female disciples who entered. She had deliberately had a good relationship with Ye Nan before, and gained the favor of the other party, asking him to help her do some chores. And now that Ye Nan is injured, she has to find someone again.
"Hey, Li Ting, isn't that waste? Why is he here?" Just as Li Ting was thinking about who to find, one of the outer disciples saw a figure not far away and exclaimed.
"Really, huh, why isn't he hurt?"
"Oh! I know it! This waste is not uninjured, but it is very affectionate to Senior Sister Li Ting, even if she is injured, she has to help Senior Sister do miscellaneous labor!"
The words of one of the outer disciples made everyone suddenly realize that they were all like this.
Seeing Ye Nan coming to the martial arts arena, Li Ting was also very surprised, and then a hint of joy flashed on her face. She didn't care if Ye Nan was injured, let alone whether she was affectionate to herself, all she cared about was that she didn't have to worry about finding someone to do chores again.
Thinking of this, Li Ting's face instantly bloomed with a bright smile and greeted Ye Nan.
"Ye Nanshi ......"
And Li Ting just shouted halfway, and the words stopped instantly, she saw Ye Nan actually passing by her, and she didn't even look at herself.
"He couldn't have heard what I just said, right?" Li Ting's face was cloudy, but she gritted her teeth and followed.
Ye Nan did hear the voices of several people talking, and for Li Ting, a woman, he also knew something through the memories of fusion. Li Ting only entered his life when Ye Nan was helpless before, but unfortunately, the current Ye Nan is no longer the one he used to be.
"Senior Brother Ye Nan!" Li Ting was now not sure if Ye Nan had heard what she had just said, so she mustered up her courage and shouted at this moment.
"What's the matter!" Ye Nan stopped, looked at Li Ting indifferently, and his face was extremely cold. He didn't care about Li Ting's use of Ye Nan to do miscellaneous labor in the past, but he didn't have a good impression of this woman.
Looking at Ye Nan's indifferent eyes, Li Ting couldn't help but froze, this was the first time she had seen Ye Nan so indifferent, which made her very unaccustomed.
"Can you help me rub the dynamometer? I'm not feeling well today. β
Hearing this, Ye Nan's eyes narrowed slightly, but his eyes became colder and colder:
"Not available!"
After finishing speaking, Ye Nan did not stop at all, and walked forward.
And at this moment, Li Tingqiao's face instantly became gloomy, she didn't expect that she would be rejected by Ye Nan, a waste.
"You ......" Li Ting stared at Ye Nan's departing back, her pretty face like ice.
"Huh, this waste is actually here to cultivate!"
Several people next to him couldn't help but be stunned when they saw Ye Nan walking towards a force measuring column, but then one of them said to Li Ting with a smile:
"Hehe, Senior Sister Li Ting, I didn't expect this waste to give you so face!"
"Yes, junior sister! We can't bear this tone, if he doesn't give face, we will lose his face!" Several others also fanned the flames.
Listening to the mocking tones of several people, Li Ting's pretty face became colder and colder, and the eyes looking at Ye Nan also became resentful. By Ye Nan
This kind of waste rejection, which is enough to make her a joke in the mouths of others, will even make her unable to hold her head up for a long time.
"Which force measuring pillar is Senior Brother Yang Huai cultivating on?" Li Ting asked as he turned his eyes to one of them.
When the man heard this, he was stunned at first, and after reacting, a strange smile appeared on his face:
"Eighty-eight!"
