A shallow river beach with a large pile of rocks by the river.

There were four Gangsha crystals, which were placed on top of one of the relatively flat boulders.

And not far away, the two figures fought like dragons and tigers, collided, and the gravel under their feet cracked in large pieces.

One of them, the son of a family surnamed Chen, was holding a pine-patterned ancient sword with a red sword spike, and let out a vigorous sword groan.

But even though he took seven steps back and tried his best to dodge, he was still entangled in his wrist by the long whip that shook out in mid-air in circles.

The pine-patterned ancient sword that cut gold and jade didn't have time to touch the whip body, and Chen Gongzi felt that the internal force was cut off at the wrist.

The long whip shook, Chen Gongzi's hand trembled, and the ancient sword took off his hand and flew into the air.

Sou!

Prince Darren withdrew his long whip and did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, chuckling: "Narrowly won a move, and conceded." ”

Chen Gongzi caught his sword, put it back into its sheath, and looked at the Gangsha crystals on the stone with some unwillingness: "I am willing to lose the bet, my two are yours." ”

"Hahahaha, it's just a small bet, Brother Chen's bearing is extraordinary, although he lost two crystals, maybe he can still get a lot of crystals in the next four days, surpassing the number in my hands?"

Prince Darren rolled his long whip, and the four Gangsha crystals all fell into his hands.

Everyone has a jade pendant given by General Shenwei, and they can withdraw at any time, no matter how much difference there is in combat power, it is too difficult to rob other people's gangsha crystals.

So after Prince Darren met Chen Gongzi, he actually proposed a gamble.

The two sides took out an equal number of Gangsha crystals and gambled, and the point was up to the point, so as not to hurt the peace.

Chen Gongzi was quite confident in his strength, and after a little thought, he agreed, but after some fighting, he still lost half a move.

"Thanks to the prince's good words."

Chen Gongzi also felt a little pain in his heart, and he knew that he wouldn't take out the two crystals to gamble.

Out of sight, he bowed his hand and hurried away.

Unexpectedly, after walking three or four miles, he met the son of the Feng family.

The two of them had some friendship, and at this moment, they found that each other's faces were not good-looking, so they couldn't help but stop and look at each other, and a subtle feeling rose in their hearts.

"Don't you ......?"

"You ...... too"

Both of them spoke at the same time and stopped at the same time.

Chen Gongzi frowned: "I met the little prince Darren of the Wolf Yu Wang's department, and I gambled with him, lost half a move, and lost two crystals." ”

Feng Gongzi said: "I also met him, and after a fight, he was slightly inferior by half a point, but after I came in, I found a crystal, and I only lost one." ”

The children of the family are not stupid people, and they immediately noticed that something was wrong.

"I inquired about the day he entered the city, and he couldn't even unlock the acupoints of a little monk, how can he beat you by a little higher than half a move, and beat me by half a move?"

When Chen Gongzi said this, his face turned dark, and he turned around and ran.

The two went to the river beach together, but Prince Darren was nowhere to be seen.

Feng Gongzi sighed: "Forget it, it's our own greed that will agree to bet with him." Besides, with the general's jade pendant, even if we find him together, it will be impossible to recapture the crystal. ”

"Bet on it, deliberately only win half a move, do you mean that I am not worthy of letting him use his true strength?"

Chen Gongzi was indignant, "Everyone is in the Heavenly Ladder realm, I want to see how much stronger he is than us, let's track the past, if we see him fighting with others, maybe we can see the details!" ”

Feng Gongzi disagreed: "Gangsha crystallization, there is also a quota in our family, with our generation, it is not easy to get one, instead of tracking down and watching the excitement, it is better to hurry up and find it again." ”

Chen Gongzi thought for a while and said: "After more than fifty people searched, the chance of encountering the ownerless Gangsha Crystal again is even smaller, if you look for it aimlessly, maybe in the next four days, you won't find a single one." ”

"That Prince Darren, I can find you first, and then I can find me, I suspect that he has some kind of magic weapon, imprinted with the secret technique of searching for people in the Northern Wilderness, and can sense the place of life in a desolate place."

"Instead of running around, it's better to follow the past and see the situation, maybe when he finds the next person, we can also preemptively ask each other to gamble."

Feng Gongzi hesitated: "We don't have any evil crystals on us. ”

"But we still have magic weapons, we can bet on them, although the magic weapons and Gangsha crystals have different uses, their value may not be inferior."

Chen Gongzi said, "In addition to matching swords, I also have two magic weapons on my body that can be activated without my own unique exercises, your Feng family has many treasure refiners, everyone knows, I am afraid that there are more magic weapons on my body than me, right?" ”

Feng Gongzi nodded lightly: "Yes, anyway, there are still more than four days, let's take a look with one day first, if there is no chance, then think of other ways." ”

Both of them had fought with Prince Darren, and now they used their own means to track the past from the river.

Half an hour later, they found the traces of Prince Darren in a redwood forest, and he hid in the forest from a distance of hundreds of feet, watching carefully.

"Brother Harlan really doesn't want to bet with me?"

Prince Darren laughed, "Although I am notoriously gifted, and the most mediocre of all my brothers, I love to enjoy the pleasure of martial arts competitions. ”

"Brother Harlan is the major general of the Laiqiu royal department, and he is very brave, I would like to see it."

Standing opposite the prince was a big fat man in a golden robe, with a cold expression and a big belly, who was none other than Harlan Spiegel from the royal department of Laiqiu.

"Whether you are mediocre or cunning, I knew when I was a child."

Harlan Mingjing said indifferently, "Our three royal ministries have been in business for a hundred years, can't even you see through this little trick?" ”

Prince Darren took it out of his arms, and there were six Gangsha crystals on his palm, and said with a smile: "I can bet on you three with six, if you are really a qualified businessman, Brother Harlan is not tempted?" ”

"It's a good thing."

Harlan Mingjing's eyes flashed slightly, and the tone of his words changed, "But General Shenwei's mind and courage are even more amazing, and it is worthy of being promoted from the position of a general to the head of many generals in the north in a hundred years." ”

"Our three royal ministries should still recognize this ally."

Prince Darren also felt the same way: "Although Da Chu is old, after all, he is not dead, even if one day, Da Chu is really divided internally, and General Shenwei is definitely a figure worth betting on." ”

"The Qiqi tribe is really unwise, how can a part of the eight royal tribes compare to the possibility of expelling the four tribes of Yuan's father and taking charge of the interests of the entire Northern Wilderness?"

Harlan Mingjing shook his head and said: "We are optimistic about the generals, they are optimistic about King Liang, if the Heavenly Mandate Sect is undefeated, they will really penetrate the northern frontier and connect the inside and outside, I am afraid that today, we should be called unwise." ”

"Alas, you are rambling, it seems that you really don't want to fight me."

Prince Darren smiled and turned his head to look, "So, I wonder if Brother Harlan is willing to gamble with the two of them?" ”

Chen and Feng saw that Prince Dalun had found out, so they simply showed up, but their faces were even worse.

They do have the intention of robbing the opponent, but taking the initiative to grab the opponent is completely different from the situation after being called to break.

What made them even more unhappy was that Harlan Spiegel, who was originally cold, suddenly smiled and became eager after seeing the two of them.

"Do you want to bet with me too?"

Harlan Spiegel smiled, "I have three Gangsha crystals here, as long as there is something of equal value, you can bet, I don't know which one will come first?" ”

Chen Gongzi said coldly: "We haven't fought yet, do you think you can eat us?" ”

Harlan said, "How can I do this? Actually, I also love to gamble, but Darren's notoriously cunning makes me unhappy, and I don't want to lose to him, and if I bet with the two, whether I win or lose, I can still bear it. ”

Chen and Feng didn't speak, and they were hesitating in their hearts.

They had already suffered a loss, so they were naturally much more cautious, and their original intention was to be sure enough when they met some Heavenly Ladder martial artists who were not young and from mediocre backgrounds, and then preemptively made an appointment.

Harlan Spiegel has a good identity, and his strength is unpredictable.

"Why don't you bet with me."

In the redwood forest, another voice came, "I said why so many people take the same route, it turns out that there is a bustle." ”

Yang Ziwen brushed aside the branches that fell in front of him, walked briskly, came through the forest, and said with a smile, "I also got a Gangsha crystal, don't bet more, just bet one, how about it?" ”

Harlan Spiegel looked at him: "Then bet on it." ”

Yang Ziwen looked at the other people: "There are too many people, if I take it out and put it on the ground, someone won't snatch it away while we are fighting, right?" ”

Chen Gongzi snorted coldly: "The backbone of our family can't do such a thing. ”

Prince Darren said with a smile: "The most important thing in business is credibility, and I won't ruin my reputation for a bad crystal." ”

"If you're worried......"

Harlan Spiegel said, "Then wait until the winner is decided." ”

If Yang Ziwensheng is victorious, naturally he doesn't need to take out his own evil crystals again.

Harlan Spiegel's words, in fact, inadvertently, revealed a strong self-confidence.

The reason why he was named Ming Spiegel is because when he was born, he had a pair of eyes that were gifted to perceive the strength and weakness of the light emitted by the human natal energy, to detect the symptoms of illness, or to observe the strength of the opponent's skills.

This is a sign of his bloodline atavism, although he has not yet reached the Xuanwomb, and the bloodline cannot be dug too deep, but the function he currently has taken advantage of many things.

Yang Ziwen's skills are mediocre, and he should only practice to the level of the fourteenth and fifteenth festivals.

Harlan Spiegel thought that his skills were so strong that he was afraid that he could beat the other side twice, so he was willing to gamble.

"Okay, let's start now."

Yang Ziwen smiled, "Please take action!" ”

Harlan Mingjing did not shirk, and the true qi of the body protection permeated the surrounding three feet, and he was calm step by step, approaching Yang Ziwen.

The distance between the two sides was quickly shortened to within one zhang.

This distance, for the ladder masters, is equivalent to a hand-to-hand encounter, and the eyes of the onlookers are a little more serious.

Airplanes!!

Harlan Mingjing punched out, and the true qi of the body protection shook together with the ground, fallen leaves, trees, and a large amount of air in the vicinity.

A golden fist mark the size of a water tank slammed into the air.

Yang Ziwen's body, like a fallen leaf, was knocked away by this golden fist mark, clinging to the fist mark, and floated out ten feet away.

Harlan Mingjing's face changed, and when he looked down, he saw a flying knife, piercing the hem of his calf, clinging to the side of his calf.

There is also a pure cyan glow condensed on the tip of the knife, which has not been dull for a long time.

Airplanes!!

The golden fist seal spread out, Yang Ziwen fell to the ground, and coughed lightly: "What a heavy fist technique, this is the "Golden Mountain Famous King Seal" of the Laiqiu Royal Department." ”

"The name remains in the golden mountain, the fist is engraved for a thousand years, it is really fascinating, if it weren't for your punch not to use ten successful forces, I'm afraid I can't touch it lightly."

Harlan Spiegel pulled out the knife: "I didn't even find out when you made the knife, if this knife hurts me, I should have seen blood." ”

"I am willing to lose the bet, this is yours."

Harlan Spiegel took out a Gang Evil Crystal, and threw it along with the throwing knife.

Prince Darren exclaimed: "When you hold a knife, it doesn't look like you're holding a hidden weapon, but it looks like you're going to use it to engrave words, could it be the martial arts of Confucianism?" ”

"The knife carved the spring and autumn, and the pen was won by the Lin. I heard that in the east of Great Chu, there was a Fulin Academy, famous for flying knives and arithmetic, and the Heavenly Mandate Sect made three appointments to fight the Heavenly Machine, but unfortunately lost to the Heavenly Mandate Sect Master. ”

"But it seems that Da Chu is really talented and has a profound heritage, and without the Confucianism Academy, Confucianism still has other amazing flying knife skills."

Yang Ziwen's eyes condensed slightly, and he shook his head and smiled: "I actually saw my gesture of taking out the knife, but fortunately I didn't bet with you just now." ”

He looked at Chen and Feng again, "Two sons, do you want to gamble?" ”

Chen Gongzi shook his sleeves and said: "Confucianism, is it so easy to gamble? This son is not willing to help you corrupt the Confucian atmosphere. ”

Yang Ziwen smiled, and was about to speak, when he suddenly listened attentively.

Prince Darren suddenly turned his head to look into the distance and dodged away, Harlan Spiegel only a step slower.

The five people present rushed out of this mountain forest together, tread water and cross the river, and ran at great speed.

About four miles away, in front of a broken stone stele, covered with a radius of ten zhang of red clouds, tossing and stirring, swaying back and forth.

In the clouds, the shadow of the flame dragon loomed, and it let out a long dragon groan.

Prince Darren and the others heard this.

"Shaoyang is really good from the fire, and it can highlight the phantom of Linggang, which is absolutely top-grade!"

Prince Darren recognized this evil species, and his heart tightened, and the long whip in his hand flung forward, shaking a large circle.

Someone must have already broken into it to stimulate this cloud and let out a dragon groan.

In order to prevent being taken first, Prince Darren's long whip has been used with all his might.

The slender whip, as if a huge and heavy steel blade was rotating, shook and immediately swept the majestic air current.

The surrounding 100 green bamboos and trees were all pulled by the air current, tilting from both sides in the direction of the long whip shaking.

The crimson cloud with a radius of ten zhang suddenly stretched out to this side and shifted over.

This cloud light is the vitality projected by the Gangsha crystal, and as soon as the cloud light moves, the crystal as the core will inevitably move.

However, as if the crimson cloud stretched into a long stream, it sped towards Prince Darren's side.

In the depths of the clouds, there was a sudden shock, and all the red clouds dispersed with a bang.

Prince Darren took his long whip and looked fixedly.

I saw that on the broken stone tablet, there was a white-robed young man with a hosta and a hairpin, two strands of black hair hanging down on his chest in his ears, with a delicate appearance and elegant temperament.

And above his right hand, he held a fist-sized red crystal, shaped like a lotus bud, which was obviously the crystallization of the Gang Qi of the Shaoyang Lihuo Zhengang.

"It's you?!"

Chen Gongzi scolded in a low voice, recognizing the murderer who killed Situ Zhuyun, "Su Hanshan!" ”

Harlan Mingjing's eyes rolled slightly, and he noticed that the place above Su Hanshan's belt was slightly bulging.

He was slender, and his belt was silver, about a palm's width, and when he was tightly tied, his loose robe was draped over the outside and hung down on both sides, making his waist more vigorous and powerful, and it was easier for people to notice the large handful of hard little objects he was carrying in his clothes.

What else could it be besides the extra Gang Evil Crystals?

Looking at that, I'm afraid there are seven or eight of them!

"Ha, it's really fate that such a big secret realm can still get together."

Su Hanshan glanced at everyone and chuckled, "Goodbye!" ”

The moment the two words were spit out, his figure suddenly faded away and reappeared ten feet away.

"Brother Su, would you like to get a few more Gang Evil Crystals?"

Prince Darren didn't chase after him, but just shouted.

"Oh?"

Su Hanshan was in mid-air, and his feet didn't seem to be in contact with the entity, but the air flow around him reversed, and he actually sent him back to the stone tablet.

"What do you mean, could it be that you have found something that you can't surrender, and you want to find someone to accompany you?"

When everyone saw him show his hand, they were awe-inspiring.

This kind of body method is really ingenious, even if he doesn't use the general's jade pendant, if Su Hanshan uses this body style and wants to leave, everyone is afraid that they will not be able to catch up with him.

Chen and Feng originally heard that he had killed Situ Zhiyun, and they only thought that the three of them worked together, especially the punch of Guangming Zen Master Shui Yue's body, which was very important.

Now I feel that I have underestimated Su Hanshan, and I feel a little drumming in my heart.

"If there is really a core of the best Gangsha, how will everyone divide it up, of course it is not like that."

Prince Darren took out six Gangsha crystals and said solemnly, "I want to make a bet with Brother Su, and use these six Gangsha crystals to bet on Brother Su's Shaoyang Lihuo, how about it?" ”

The total amount of these six Gangsha crystals is actually not inferior to that Shaoyang Lihuo Zhengang, and even surpasses it.

However, when using the Gang Evil Qi to nourish the body and increase power, frequently changing attributes, there will be more waste for ordinary Heavenly Ladder martial artists.

All in all, these six Gangsha crystals, betting on one Shaoyang from the fire, but the difference is similar.

As for Su Hanshan, his absorption efficiency of Gangsha crystals is higher, but there will be no waste too much.

"Bet?"

Su Hanshan's gaze paused on the six Gang Evil Crystals, and said with a smile, "Do you want to start now?" ”

Rumble!!!

On Prince Darren's body, a burst of silver-white qi suddenly erupted, pressing down on the ground seven feet around him, forming a pit.

The strong wind swept away, and Harlan Mingjing and the others turned their heads a little puzzled, but they didn't know why he didn't make a move, and he suddenly urged the body protection qi to the extreme.

"Brother Su!"

Prince Darren laughed, "Let's wait until I'm ready." ”

Su Hanshan smiled slightly: "It seems that you know some of my methods?" ”

"I happened to look at it too."

Prince Darren said solemnly, "A glimpse before swinging the sword, others may not have noticed what that golden light is, but I recognize it, how dare I be careless with an opponent like Brother Su?" ”

Su Hanshan also stuffed Shaoyang Lihuo Crystal into his arms, and said, "After watching my battle, you have to bet with me, it seems that you also have deep confidence in yourself." ”

"I really want to take the opportunity to see and see, the martial arts of the Northern Wilderness royal tribe."

The two had already finished their sentences, their eyes met, and the atmosphere around them suddenly became heavy.

Yang Ziwen and the others all retreated further, staring intently at this battle.

The wind stopped, and the bamboo leaves fell.

Prince Darren suddenly raised his hand, but instead of attacking, he took a step back and threw the soft whip in his hand to the side.

This move was a big surprise.

Just when they unconsciously looked at the soft whip with a little surprise in their eyes, they suddenly found that Prince Darren had disappeared from their field of vision.

Shift the focus and strike suddenly.

Prince Darren's hand has almost disappeared into invisibility.

Even if someone is standing facing each other, their attention is drawn, and they may lose track of Prince Darren.

And he himself had already arrived in front of the broken stone tablet and punched Su Hanshan's knee.

Clinker, when he punched out, on the stone tablet, Su Hanshan's figure was only a phantom.

Prince Darren reacted extremely quickly, and hit the stele with his other hand in a straight line.

Rumble!!!

Everyone seemed to have heard only a collision, and there were already sixteen more holes on the stone tablet.

This stone tablet is large, wide and thick, and even after it is broken, it is still more than one person high, about five feet wide, and the color is gray-blue, which is extremely hard.

But in front of the ladder master, this kind of stone tablet should be no different from tofu.

There were actually two ladder masters, and they punched sixteen punches, each punch was a stone tablet that penetrated half of each punch, and the two fists collided and then retracted.

Sixteen collisions, although there are sixteen more holes in this stone tablet, there is not even a single extra crack.

The restraint of these two people's skills has reached a level that makes people feel harsh, all the impact is completely only on the other party, and the power of the shock is completely dissolved by itself, without any superfluous fluctuations, and is lost.

Su Hanshan used the Xuanyin Six Evil Divine Fist.

Prince Darren uses "Heavenly Wolf and Sea Divine Skill", which is also the best martial art that combines rigidity and softness.

He usually uses a soft whip, not because his weapon is a soft whip, but just to use the soft whip to figure out the flexibility and strength of the boxing technique.

Harlan Spiegel knew that Prince Darren's boxing skills were powerful, but he didn't expect that the young man opposite him would be on a par with him.

This made Harlan Spiegel wonder if something was wrong with his eyes.

I saw that Yang Ziwen made a slight mistake before, but Yang Ziwen's internal strength was really not good, relying on the flying knife stunt.

But now, Su Hanshan is a real fist collision, why did Harlan Spiegel just observe it, and he felt that Su Hanshan was in the Heavenly Ladder realm, and he had six or seven less attainments than Prince Darren?

It must be known that the level of the ladder realm does not only lie in the strength of internal force and physical strength.

After all, some people are born with deep dantian and brutal flesh, and they may be able to collide with the peak of the ladder when the realm of the ladder is low, but the mysteries in other aspects are not comparable after all.

The vertebrae are the central axis of the human body and the source of countless recessive meridian entanglements.

It is precisely because of the existence of these subtle meridians that the human brain can receive sensations from all over the body inside and outside, such as pain, itching, swelling and contraction, cold, heat, softness and hardness, and so on.

And then through these meridians, the instructions in the mind are conveyed to all parts of the body, so that the human body can make various changes to the external situation.

Compared with the 12 canons and the 8 strange meridians, the recessive meridians are very difficult to detect, and it is even more difficult to subtly regulate and cultivate.

After cultivating to the Heavenly Ladder realm, every time a martial artist refines a vertebrae, he must try to feel more hidden meridians that radiate from this bone, so as to further nourish and make use of it.

The benefits of this are obvious.

The body is more sensitive, reacts faster, heals better, and is more resistant to toxicity.

And the most obvious thing in battle is that it has a stronger bearing capacity after the impact of internal forces.

Two strong people fight against each other, even if they are not invaded by the opponent's internal force, their own skills will produce a strong shock after the collision.

The more hidden meridians you master, the more usable channels that have been strengthened in your body, and the power that you can recoil back will be quickly diverted and dissolved in countless bifurcations, allowing people to reorganize their offensive with higher efficiency.

Therefore, in the Heavenly Ladder realm, the more vertebral nodes that have been tempered, the higher the frequency of all-out attacks that can be achieved.

However, like Su Hanshan, who broke through to the Heavenly Ladder Realm with the Qi Sea Extreme Realm, not only did the quality achieved by refining the vertebrae be higher, but also the number of hidden meridians that could be felt after each section of the spine was tempered, which was obviously a lot more than that of ordinary Heavenly Ladder martial artists.

Therefore, although he has only completed the quenching of the coccyx, sacrum, lumbar vertebrae, thoracic vertebrae, and the seven bones of the cervical vertebrae, he has not completed the quenching.

However, the number of hidden meridians mastered is already slightly better than that of ordinary Heavenly Ladder peak martial artists.

Prince Darren actually knows this.

When he saw that Su Hanshan was using the Condensing Light Transformation Qi, he had already guessed it slightly, but it was only after experiencing it himself that he was convinced that the other party was indeed not inferior to him.

So, after the sixteenth punch, the prince's decisive eyes flashed, and the two eyeballs suddenly became blood-red, and he could no longer distinguish the whites of his eyes from the pupils.

The blood-colored light shot out from his eyes more than half a foot long, and his whole body, at this moment, a layer of blood-colored glow evaporated, and the momentum was extremely strong.

Harlan Spiegel was shocked again: "Bloody Secret Technique!" ”

In the realm of the ladder, after refining the spine, the hematopoietic function of the spine has increased greatly, and the quality of blood has also undergone significant transformation.

Generally speaking, human blood also has a lifespan, and after a period of use, the old blood will be transformed and excreted, and the fresh blood created by the human body will be replaced.

In three to five months, the blood in the whole body will be replaced.

However, after reaching the realm of the Heavenly Ladder, the blood function of the person is stronger, and the life span of use is gradually extended to half a year or even a year.

At this time, the most energetic part of the martial artist's body is the dantian, the second is the spine, and the third is the blood.

There is only one dantian and spine, and it can't be moved, but the blood has more room for use.

The secret technique of violent blood in the Northern Wilderness is to forcibly stimulate the spine to create more blood with abundant vitality when the human body has not lost blood, and transpirate and refine these new bloods to burst out with combat power far beyond normal.

This kind of secret technique is also very burdensome to the human body, especially to the heart and brain, and if it is maintained for more than three breaths, it may cause significant damage.

Three-interest !!

Prince Darren was in a mess, all seven orifices were emitting red light, and he punched again, and when the blood-colored glow was steaming, his figure seemed to be twice as tall as just now in a distorted halo.

The broken stone tablet was originally taller than him, but now in front of him, it looked like a low piece of sand, as if when a fist moved forward, it didn't have to be hit by a fist, and it could be destroyed into residue with just momentum!
