Chapter 8: Tempering the Flesh

Half an hour later, in a secluded house in the western part of Lieyuan City.

Luoyang carefully held a white porcelain bottle, unscrewed the cork, held down the mouth of the bottle and shook it gently, and some gray-white powder fell into the large wooden barrel in front of him.

The large wooden barrel in front of him was more than half a man's height, half a foot long, filled with a red liquid, steaming, blistering and tumbling, obviously extremely hot.

"Seven and a half grams of powder from limestone leaves should be enough. ”

Luoyang put the bottle on the square table on the side, this house was bought by him from a resident at a high price, it was a very ordinary independent courtyard in the west of the city, which was not at all inconspicuous.

This will probably be his little secret base in the future, and only here will he completely get rid of that feeling of being snooped.

"The Linglong Grass and Blood Jade Powder have already been put in, now let's wait for the temperature to slowly cool down. ”

The boiling water in the barrel contains all the blood of a fire-tailed fox, the blood temperature in the body of this demon beast is extremely high, and the cooling is extremely slow, ordinary people will be stained, they will definitely be scalded skin and flesh, if there is no method of No. 7, he really dare not try to absorb the essence of the blood of this demon beast.

"Gollum!"

It didn't take long for the bubbles tumbling inside the barrel to weaken at a speed visible to the naked eye, and only the slightest hint of white gas was still steaming.

"Almost. ”

Luoyang smiled slightly, and took off the clothes on his body three or two times, revealing his slightly thin body.

Drilling into the wooden barrel, the temperature of the water inside is not too high, but Luoyang suddenly frowned, the blood of this fire-tailed fox is really problematic, once it touches the skin, there is a pinprick feeling all over the body.

"Seven, let's start recording the functions of your body. ”

Luoyang endured the pain and sank completely into the barrel, the bright red liquid enveloping his entire body.

After a while, Luoyang's skin was all red, and the liquid in the barrel began to fade.

"Master, after about ten minutes, you can completely absorb the essence of the fire-tailed fox's blood, during which your body will automatically expel some impurities, but the process may be a little painful. ”

"No problem, it's nothing. ”

Luoyang was hot all over his body, as if someone was scraping his skin inch by inch with a sharp weapon, the pain really couldn't be expressed in words, but he gritted his teeth all the time and didn't say a word.

In just a moment, a trace of black liquid oozed from his skin, and the smell was extremely fishy, and as soon as he entered the water, it all dissolved, staining the entire bucket of water black and red.

"Good sign. ”

With the discharge of impurities, Luoyang only felt that his whole body had become much lighter, which was clearly a sign that his body was gradually improving.

Ten minutes later, with a "bang", Luoyang stood up from the barrel, and the skin on the top and bottom was tinged with a faint flush, but the luster was obviously much better than before.

"I wipe it, this water stinks. Luoyang smelled the fishy smell in the barrel and couldn't help but cover his nose, although the impurities in it were all discharged from his body, it didn't mean that he could stand the smell.

"Damn, hurry up and wash it again, I can't stand it. ”

A quarter of an hour later, Luoyang washed his body again, and changed into clean clothes by the way.

"Seven, how has your body changed now?"

Luoyang could clearly feel that his physical fitness was improving, and the trace of essence power in the blood of the firetail fox didn't know what it was, and it could be used to improve his physique.

He was a little excited in his heart, but at the same time he had a lot of doubts.

"Master, the data is very complicated, if you generally say it, it means that your strength has increased significantly, the strength of your muscles and bones has been strengthened to varying degrees, and a lot of toxins have been excreted from your body. ”

"I can clearly feel the increase in strength, but I can actually remove the toxin?" Luoyang groaned slightly, the effect of the fire-tailed fox's blood was really unexpectedly good, if it could be combined with No. 7's prescription, I believe that the poison in the body would soon be completely eliminated.

"Let's see how much more strength I've gained now. ”

Out of the door of the room, outside is a very simple courtyard, empty, only a large locust tree is planted in the courtyard on the right, and a stone table and a few stone chairs are placed underneath.

Luoyang stood in front of the big locust tree, his right fist was clenched, his lumbar spine was forced, and then a punch was blasted out.

"Boom!"

The whole locust tree trembled, the leaves rustled, and a clear fist mark was left on the trunk, and the fist power of this punch was at least more than three hundred catties.

"Before, my strength was only two hundred catties at most, which was not even comparable to an ordinary adult, let alone comparable to a martial artist, but I couldn't imagine that the blood essence of a fire-tailed fox could increase my strength by a hundred catties. ”

Luo Yang looked at his right fist, and was a little surprised in his heart, because this body had been taking chronic poison for a long time, so his physical fitness was extremely poor, and the normal internal qi realm first-layer martial artist, to say the least, was three or four hundred catties, but he himself was only less than two hundred catties, which was really bad.

"Seven, since the blood of the fire-tailed fox can improve my physique, does the blood of other demon beasts have the same effect?

"The database data is insufficient, so I can't come up with an accurate answer, and I can only analyze the results if the owner comes into contact with the monster itself. As for the essence in the blood of the fire-tailed fox, according to the detection results, it is a trace element that can be absorbed by the human body, which is very rare. ”

"That's it. Luo Yang rubbed his chin and nodded, because he and No. Seven were both in contact with this mysterious world realm for the first time, so the data in the database was still very poor, and it seemed that he would have to go to the mountains and jungles outside the city a few times in the future, at least to experiment with which demon beasts' blood would be useful to him.

"But for now, you still have to improve your strength first, otherwise, I'm afraid it will be difficult to even save your life. ”

Half a month passed in a flash, and Luoyang still stayed in the City Lord's Mansion most of the time, practicing martial arts by himself, and only went to the small mansion in the west of the city when he was boiling medicine and bathing in the blood of the fire-tailed fox.

Some of the shops in the blood city of the fire-tailed fox are sold, and the price is very cheap, after all, the fire-tailed fox is just a very ordinary, and not very strong demon beast, there are even live fire-tailed foxes for sale in those shops, and the most valuable place of this monster is the fur and bones, as for the blood, I don't see anyone who needs it, so it saves Luoyang a lot of expenses.

It's just that after bathing in the blood of the firetail fox more than ten times in a row, Luoyang's body is difficult to feel any improvement, it seems to have reached a bottleneck, and the toxins in the body have also been completely eliminated under this two-pronged approach.

The City Lord's Mansion, in the independent courtyard of Luoyang.

"The blood of the firetail fox doesn't have much effect on me anymore, and it seems that no matter how much I take a bath, it won't improve much. However, now my strength is already seven hundred catties, and even the flesh of the fourth-layer martial artist of the inner qi realm is not weaker at all. ”

In half a month, Luoyang's body has slowly adjusted, the poison of the Dhara Han Xingcao in his body has been eliminated, and his physical strength has also been greatly improved, although from the outside, his body is still so thin, but under the clothes, the muscles all over his body are extremely condensed, containing great explosive power.

"If I enter the explosive state again, my strength can reach a thousand catties to say the least. ”

A glimmer of divine light flashed in Luoyang's eyes, a thousand catties of huge power, he was a master of the seventh layer of internal qi, and his physical body was at most to this extent.

"When the internal strength is improved a little more, you can go to the jungle mountain range to break through again. ”

Luoyang tasted the benefits of the fire-tailed fox's blood, and naturally he was unwilling to give up, there are many kinds of demon beasts in this world, and it is definitely not only the fire-tailed fox's blood that is effective for himself.

However, now his strength is still limited, even if his strength has increased greatly, but the internal force is still too weak, if the internal force can be raised to the third layer, then below the second-level demon beast, there should be nothing to threaten him

The second day was not very bright, and the city lord's mansion was in the martial arts training ground.

A figure flew and moved in the field, and the long sword in his hand conjured a circle of silver light, and the sword shadow was heavy, and the cold light was clear.

"Flowing water is merciless!"

"Falling Colorful!"

"The leaves fall back to the roots!"

Suddenly, the long sword in the figure's hand turned into six sword shadows, one sword wrapped in one sword, and slashed out like lightning.

"Brush, brush!"

The weapon rack on the opposite side was neatly cut into a dozen pieces, and the blade wood fell to the ground.

Luoyang retracted the long sword with satisfaction.

"Yes, now that I have learned all the sixteen moves of "Luoying Flying Sword", and I have also comprehended the realm of "five voids and one reality", it seems that my understanding is good. ”

The so-called martial arts comprehension, in his understanding, is the ability to analyze and solve problems, just in this regard, because the brain has been imperceptibly transformed by No. 7, his analytical ability is much stronger than ordinary people, so in such a short period of time, the "Luoying Flying Sword" move realm comprehended to the level of "five voids and one reality", and it is not far from the highest realm of "eight voids and one reality".

But immediately, Luo Yang frowned again: "It's just that the improvement of internal force is a little too slow, and the "Aoki Gong" is still a little short of breaking through to the second level, if I can practice to the highest fourth level, then I can complete the twelve turns of true qi, and the cultivation speed is twice as fast as now, and the dantian capacity and internal qi purity will be several times higher." ”

Even if a genius with outstanding qualifications can quickly cultivate the internal strength to the highest level, but if you want to improve your internal strength, you still have to rely on continuous hard work, but the speed will definitely be much faster than ordinary people.
