Chapter 55: The Third Forging

At the edge of the cemetery, three or four figures slowly approached, an old couple with a young man and a child. The young man carried a bamboo basket containing white and yellow paper money, as well as incense and candles, as if he had come to the grave to pay respects to the dead.

The old man in one of them couldn't help frowning when he saw a young man standing outside the hut in front of him.

"My wife, this young man is so strange that he came to this cemetery early in the morning, and he is still standing in that place, and he doesn't know what to say," the old woman muttered.

The old man suddenly glared at the old woman and reprimanded, "Mouthy!"

The old woman suddenly stopped speaking.

At this time, the little boy among the four rolled his eyes, looked at the young man curiously, and said loudly: "Big brother, what are you doing standing there?"

The old man on the side saw the child suddenly speak, and hurriedly pulled him behind him.

When Luoyang saw the strange behavior of these four people, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then hugged his fists and said, "How many people, may I ask the old man who lives in this hut?"

He gestured to the dilapidated hut behind him.

The old couple looked at each other strangely, and the old man showed a look of vigilance on his face, and asked, "What are you asking for?" Don't you know that the old Liu who guards the tomb in the road has been infected with the plague and died more than ten years ago?

"Dead?" Luoyang's pair of pupils shrank, took a deep breath, and asked, "Old man, you said that the person here has been dead for more than ten years?"

"Am I going to lie to you? The old man frowned, and his face was unhappy: "This northwest cemetery has been abandoned for more than ten years, if it weren't for the death of the grave keeper, do you think it will become what it is now?"

Luoyang really gasped and asked, "Old man, the previous owner of this thatched hut was an old man named Lao Liu?"

"Yes, do you know him?" the old man looked at Luoyang and said, "But you don't look very old, Lao Liu has been dead for more than ten years, you shouldn't be his distant relative, right?"

Speaking of this, a relieved smile appeared on his face, and he suddenly pointed to a bare tombstone twenty or thirty zhang away, and said, "Well, that is Lao Liu's grave, if you want to worship him, you are not afraid of not being able to find a place." ”

After speaking, the old man walked with his family to the other side of the cemetery, and after walking half a mile, he took out the offerings in the bamboo basket in front of a tombstone and began to worship.

"Lao Liu's Grave"

Luoyang felt a little cold in his palms, and looked at the tomb in the direction indicated by the old man, only to see that twenty or thirty zhang away, a lonely dirt bag stood there, in front of it was a crooked tombstone, a black crow stood on the tombstone, and its head was tilted at a strange angle, but the pair of crimson eyes seemed to be staring at themselves, not moving.

"Damn, what the is this place!"

Luoyang felt a little swollen in his head, and was stared at by the dead crow like this, and he felt a chill all over his body, and hurriedly left this strange place

After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Luoyang never went to the cemetery in the northwest again, until now, he couldn't figure out whether Lao Liu was a human or a ghost, and that cemetery was really weird, and it seemed that there were many secrets buried there that he hadn't discovered.

"Now that the black mist seems to have reached a bottleneck in my upliftment, there's no need to venture to that graveyard again. ”

Although the black mist can solidify and increase Luoyang's divine soul power, but since his divine soul power has increased by one percent, this effect has begun to be greatly reduced.

"I don't have to think about the cemetery for the time being, this kind of thing is still a little powerless for me to resist, and it will not be too late to explore it when my strength is improved to a certain level in the future. ”

For this unknown and terrifying thing, Luoyang is not without curiosity, otherwise he would not have gone to explore the cemetery alone that night, but the current situation seems to be a little beyond his imagination, and everything needs to be done carefully.

After a period of time, Luoyang went back and forth to the city lord's mansion and his own independent courtyard in the west of the city, cultivated for steady improvement, and also began to study the human-level top-level swordsmanship obtained in the cemetery "Hundred Variations and Thousand Illusions Swordsmanship", the subtlety of this swordsmanship is far above the "Luoying Flying Flower Sword", it is simply incomparable, the first four basic swordsmanship is practiced, and the power has exceeded the swordsmanship realm of "eight voids and one reality".

A month later, in a small courtyard in the west of the city.

Luoyang sat cross-legged in the center of the small courtyard, the scorching sun was overhead, and the blazing sunlight fell on him, reflecting a layer of faint jade light, and there was a hint of coolness in the turquoise.

At this time, he took out three bottles of pills from his arms, which were Tongming Dan, Three Turns Xuanqi Pill and Quenching Bone Pill.

His current net worth can be described as very rich, so naturally he will no longer be stingy with the pills, Tongming Dan and the Three Turns Xuanqi Pill, he bought five bottles in one go, and the other quenching pill is the top body forging pill sold by Baicao Pavilion, and the price of one pill is more than 10,000 taels of silver, but Luoyang bought ten bottles at one time, about two hundred pills.

"The silver is naturally to be spent on the blade, with these pills, my strength can at least double or double in the short term. ”

Pouring out a pill from each bottle, Luoyang swallowed it and quickly closed his eyes.

After a while, a layer of white smoke came out from the top of Luoyang's head, which is a phenomenon that only occurs when the internal qi is running to the extreme, and at the same time, the faint jade light on his body began to circulate, circulating all over his body, and the color began to become more and more pure and bright.

And the muscles on his body began to roll like a little mouse, and the muscles all over his body were knotted, full of explosive force.

It wasn't until more than an hour later that Luoyang reopened his eyes, pressed his palms down, contracted his chest, and then exhaled a breath of arrows, and suddenly there was a whistling sound in the air, and the air arrows shot out more than three feet, directly hitting the opposite wall, leaving a small pit.

"The third forging of the Nine Turns Ming Jade Gong has finally been promoted to this realm. Luoyang stretched out his arms, his face showed a hint of joy, and he saw that on the skin of his palms, a faint layer of turquoise fluorescence was lingering on it, which was a vision that only had after the "Nine Turns of Ming Jade Gong" was practiced to Xiaocheng.

"Being able to enter the third forging so quickly, the credit of the Quenching Bone Pill is not small, and I am not only greatly increased in strength now, but also my physical defense has also been greatly increased, if it is a martial artist below the fifth layer of internal qi, it will directly slash at me with a blade, I am afraid that it will not cause any damage." ”

After practicing the "Nine Turns Ming Jade Gong" to the third forging, Luoyang's strength has exceeded 3,500 catties, and the effect is beyond his imagination, thinking that this is the effect brought by the top elixir "Quenching Bone Pill", and at the same time, the muscles, bones and meridians of his whole body have also been greatly tempered and improved, and in the current situation, it has truly surpassed the physical strength of ordinary martial artists in the early stage of the Yuan Dynasty.

"The third forging of the Nine Turns Ming Jade Gong, the peak of the fourth layer of the Inner Qi Realm, now my strength has not only doubled, but at least more than tripled, and now if I meet Zhou Zimo again, I will definitely be able to defeat him head-on." ”

However, Zhou Zimo is not his first target, and only Luo Renzong is an obstacle that he must overcome.

Luoyang pondered for a moment, and suddenly the black spirit ring on his right hand flashed, and a spirit stone fell into his hand, and at the same time, there was also a map and a black unknown jade plate, which he accidentally found in a corner of the storage spirit ring.
