The 10th day of the Lunar New Year.

The excitement of the New Year has returned to calm, the eldest brother and sister-in-law have gone back to work on the seventh day of the new year, and the shop of the second sister and second brother-in-law has also reopened on the eighth day of the new year.

As for the parents, as the queen nanny of the two grandchildren, they naturally followed out of Maocheng.

Then Qiao Xiu was the only one left in the family again.

Although it seemed to outsiders that he was lonely and pitiful at home just after the New Year, Qiao Xiu himself was very satisfied with the current situation.

Because there is no one at home, it is convenient for me to cultivate.

Before, there was a large family here, and relatives and friends visited from time to time, so it was really inconvenient to cultivate.

The practice of breathing is somewhat similar to the legendary internal strength, which also requires meditation.

In the introductory stage of the breathing method, the main thing is to mobilize the life energy in the body to temper the body through spiritual meditation.

When you enter the transcendent stage, your spirit and life energy will resonate with the extraordinary energy of the outside world, which is officially called dark energy, so as to slowly absorb the dark energy into your body and transform and strengthen your own life energy.

And the essence of fighting spirit is a highly condensed life energy.

Qiao Xiu has not yet officially advanced to the transcendent, so it is naturally impossible to expose the fact that he has mastered the cultivation method.

Therefore, during the Chinese New Year, he could only secretly practice breathing in his room at night or increase the amount of exercise on the roof.

Because it is still in the foundation stage, in addition to using the breathing method to mobilize life energy to temper the body, external exercise can also accelerate the improvement of physical fitness.

The combination of one static and one movement is particularly effective.

So although he was slightly delayed by trivial matters during the Chinese New Year, Qiao Xiu's entry was not too slow.

This is also thanks to the magical effect of Lynn's memories in his mind.

That kind of profound memory that seems to be engraved on the soul, not only will it not be forgotten, but it will also slowly transition the cultivation experience that originally belonged to Lynn to Qiao Xiu when Qiao Xiu was cultivating himself.

opened a small experience hanging, which made Qiao Xiu approach the limit of ordinary people's human bodies in a short period of time.

The external manifestation is that Qiao Xiu has grown a few centimeters taller again, and now he is close to one meter eight, his body is even stronger, his muscles are like iron casting, and his strength has nearly doubled compared to before the global vision appeared.

"Hey, looks like we can try to break through tonight. ”

Qiao Xiu, who had just finished an external workout on the rooftop, felt his state and had a hunch that he would be able to complete a breakthrough tonight.

Then he stopped exercising and went downstairs, rested for a while, and went to take a shower.

After taking a shower and closing the doors and windows inside and outside the house, Qiao Xiu returned to his room.

You can see a futon on the floor in Qiao Xiu's room.

It was something that Qiao Xiu bought from the Internet, and it didn't do anything in itself.

However, because of the similarity between the breathing method and the internal cultivation in the novel, Qiao Xiu felt that it would be more comfortable to buy a futon and come back to meditate.

Although it seems that there is no need to be as formal and elaborate as bathing and burning incense, Qiao Xiu still looks very serious and solemn in the face of stepping into the first level of transcendence.

He first turned off the light and lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and tried to regain his composure.

Only when his mood was adjusted did he get up and sit down cross-legged on the futon by feeling it.

"Whether it's a dragon or a worm, it's up to tonight, come on, Qiao Xiu, you can do it!"

Before the exercise, Qiao Xiu once again cheered himself up in his heart.

Then after taking more than a dozen deep breaths in a row, after confirming that he was completely prepared, Qiao Xiu no longer hesitated to use the breathing method.

By visualizing the core of the breathing method, all the life energy in the body is fully mobilized, and the body that has reached its current limit is tempered according to the vibrational frequency unique to the breathing method.

It is not an easy task to move from the mundane body to the transcendent.

It can be seen that as Qiao Xiu used the breathing method at full strength, the muscles in his whole body began to twist and deform due to the overloaded internal pressure.

It didn't take long for the pores around Qiao Xiu's body to begin oozing a dark red and dark black liquid.

It was a mixture of sweat and blood full of impurities.

The sharp pain made Qiao Xiu clench his teeth and his brows furrowed.

Fortunately, the strong will and desire for transcendence that he had cultivated hard in the past made Qiao Xiu hold on.

"Come on, Qiao Xiu, if you can't even bear this pain, what are you talking about stepping into the extraordinary?"

"Think of that kid Lynn, who has suffered ten times more than you. He can hold it up, why can't you?!"

"Come on, only when you step into the transcendent can you have the strength to protect your relatives!"

......

Qiao Xiu was running the breathing method with all his might, and he generally kept cheering himself up in the bottom of his heart.

As the painful process passed minute by minute, more and more impurities were discharged from the body, and Qiao Xiu's spirit became more and more pure.

The pure spirit makes the core of the visualization breathing clearer and clearer.

"Soon, I feel the presence of dark energy, just a little, just a little closer to resonate with it. ”

Qiao Xiu saw that success was just around the corner, but he didn't dare to relax more and more.

The room became extremely quiet, except for Qiao Xiu's slight, rhythmic breathing.

Suddenly, Qiao Xiu held his breath, the muscles of his whole body tightened and loosened, and colorful light lit up out of thin air near his body.

The colorful light instantly illuminated the originally dark room.

This is the same colorful light that appeared in the global vision that night, that is, the dark energy that the official said would usher in the transcendent era.

"Whew, it worked!"

Sensing the dark energy entering his body, Qiao Xiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Is this what it's like to be extraordinary? Really...... It's cool!"

As the dark energy is transformed into life energy in the body, the life energy is constantly tempered and strengthened under the action of the breathing method.

The feeling of the cells in his whole body being filled with energy made Qiao Xiu so cool that he flew up.

Fortunately, Qiao Xiu had seen the process of Lynn's breakthrough in his memory, so he tried to restrain his joy and instead concentrated on running the breathing method.

Only in this way can we maximize the use of the external energy attracted by breaking through the transcendent barrier to strengthen the body and condense the fighting qi.

Qiao Xiu's spirit calmed down again.

The night passed before you knew it.

The next morning, Qiao Xiu woke up from his meditation and opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with a fine light, which was a vision that could only be found in extreme mental fullness.

"Whew, it looks like it's really broken through, it feels so good!"

Qiao Xiu raised his hands and clenched his fists in front of his chest, feeling the explosive power contained in them, and his mood was extremely happy.

"And my body, it's changed so much!"

Qiao Xiu, who got up from the futon, soon found that he was half a head taller than last night, estimated to be one meter nine, and his body was even more burly and strong.

It is not a simple increase in muscles, but a fundamental change in the whole person along with the skeletal muscles.

It's like being rebuilt from rough iron ore to refined steel.

"It's a little weird! Lynn doesn't seem to have changed that much when she broke through......"

In the face of such physical changes, Qiao Xiu felt a little confused compared to the discrepancy between Lynn's memory.

"Is it because the world is different?"

Qiao Xiu speculated wildly.

"Wait...... No, it seems that in my memory, including Lynn, the men of the Crove Northland are all very tall and mighty!"

Joshua suddenly noticed the difference between himself and Lynn or the Croft Northland man.

In my memory, although Lynn was only a teenager before breaking through the transcendental, he was already a tall guy with a height of more than one meter and eight meters, and after the breakthrough, he also became taller and stronger, but overall it was not as big as Qiao Xiu's own changes.

In the Black Rock Fortress before, even the shortest and thin mage looked like he was one meter eight tall, and the other warriors were generally above one meter nine, and some were even more than two meters.

"It seems to be a matter of adaptability to the breathing method. ”

Through the difference in body between himself and the Crove Northlanders, and thinking of the characteristics of the breathing method, Qiao Xiu understood a little.

Originally, this breathing method was created by the Croft Northlanders, and as a cultivation method that specializes in cultivating life to strengthen the body, it will naturally adapt to the physical condition of the creator and use it as a template for strengthening.

Although I have not met the founder of this breathing method, I think it must be a burly Mrs. Crow.

And Qiao Xiu, as a blue star man who was once only one meter seven tall, after cultivating this breathing method, his body would naturally be greatly strengthened because he did not meet its standards.

"It's no wonder that in the beginner stage before, just reaching the limit of the human body, the height soared from 1.7 meters to 1.8 meters. This breathing method is really ......."

After some reasonable deductions, Qiao Xiu also had a deeper understanding of this breathing method.

"But it's okay, I'm satisfied, anyway, it's a good thing to grow taller and stronger. ”

Although the passive adaptability of the breathing method is a bit overbearing, for a muscular strength enthusiast like Joshew, the change in body is definitely an added bonus.

"But when I walk out at my current size, I will probably be startled when I meet an acquaintance, right?"
