The beginning is the entry, this is Murong Bai's first assessment of Murong Xiu, and it is also the threshold to get his true inheritance, if Murong Xiu doesn't even understand the stakes between qi and sword, then he is not qualified to get his true inheritance.

Murong Bai, who has no sword in his hand or puts down a tangible sword, is the strongest sword saint in the world today.

Every time he thought of this, Murong Xiu felt an impulse and excitement, the Eight Heavens Realm may already be regarded as a master in the eyes of the world, but in the eyes of Murong Bai, it is only a beginning and an entry.

Putting down the visible sword has quite reached a higher level of the sword path, although there is still a certain distance from the Heavenly Sword realm, Murong Xiu is still full of expectations.

Two days later, it was the time that Murong Bai stipulated for Murong Xiu. After two days of recovery and meditation, his state has returned to its peak, even better than three days ago, and the injuries that have not yet healed are not a big problem for him, even if he does not deliberately heal the wounds, the True Dragon Bath Blood Body will help him recover slowly.

"Come with me!"

Early in the morning, Murong Bai arrived as scheduled, dropped three words and fell straight down the cliff.

In the past three days, Murong Bai specially instructed all his disciples not to disturb Murong Xiu, especially Tang Xiao, who had been seriously warned, otherwise with this guy's character, he would have come here a long time ago.

Dusk opened his eyes, Murong Xiu had already sensed Murong Bai's arrival, and without saying a word, he stood up and jumped down towards the cliff, the qi refining technique was running, and the Xingyao sword qi was condensed under his feet, which was much more textured than before.

Even if he didn't see it with his own eyes, Murong Bai could clearly feel that his good apprentice had obviously made progress in qi refining.

The master and apprentice came to the endless water one after the other, and Murong Xiu couldn't be more familiar with this river, and every time he thought of the scene where he and Tang Xiao were dropped into the river, he couldn't help but laugh.

I thought to myself, depending on the situation, today's first lesson is probably inseparable from this river.

"Go down!"

Sure enough, just as Murong Xiu thought, before he could react, Murong Bai scattered the sword qi under his feet, and with a volley of his big hand, he forced his whole person underwater.

The truth is far more than that, because this river has existed for I don't know how many years, the depth is tens of hundreds of zhang, Murong Bai's breath has been pressing him down, and he doesn't know how many zhang he has sunk between breaths, and there is no intention to stop.

"Rabbit cub, you still dare to use the means of the Fu Array Master, believe it or not, I have banned your vitality?"

Even underwater, Murong Xiu could hear Murong Bai's words, because of the oppression, he almost instinctively used the rune array to protect himself, but he didn't expect to be reprimanded by Murong Bai, and hurriedly removed the rune array.

Continue to go deeper, until the light has dimmed, Murong Bai stopped his inhumane behavior.

"Don't think about it, the vitality between heaven and earth is everywhere, there is it in the air, and there is naturally it in the water. ”

Murong Bai's words came again, as he said, Murong Xiu tentatively floated a little, but was blocked by an invisible force, and finally had to obediently accept his fate.

"This old man has something wrong today, this is to torture the dead!"

Grunt, a string of bubbles spit out of Murong Xiu's mouth, and the lack of oxygen under the water made him blush and have a thick neck after just such a while, so he hurriedly did what Murong Bai said.

The water is not as good as the land, even if there is a vitality in the water, but it is much thinner than the land, and it is quite difficult to refine, he can only run the qi refining technique to the greatest extent, and finally barely hold on to the time of half a pillar of incense.

After the time of the half-pillar incense, don't refine the vitality in the water, even his own vitality is not much left, fortunately, Murong Bai is always paying attention, and seeing that he can't hold on, he pulls back to the water.

Back on the water, Murong Xiu spit out several mouthfuls of river water in a row, and breathed heavily, almost greedily.

"Old man, you are ruthless!"

The feeling of suffocation in the water was still there, and Murong Xiu was not allowed to say more than half a word, but Murong Bai threw him back to the cliff as if he hadn't heard it.

"It's too bad, I want to ...... back then"

Halfway through his words, Murong Bai didn't say any more, and said to Murong Xiu in a different tone.

"This is a kind of experience for you, Chang Jiu can make your Qi refining speed far beyond ordinary people, Qi refining is the foundation of our Qi Sect disciples, when fighting against people, only faster refining Yuan Qi as a supplement can ensure that you are invincible. ”

No matter when, for immortal cultivators, the vitality is always the source of strength, in the case of fighting at the same level, the Qi Sect has a victory rate of seven or eighty percent under the effect of qi refining, coupled with the recovery speed of the vitality, and there are no special circumstances, this ensures the invincible existence of the disciples of the Qi Sect at the same level, although the word invincible is exaggerated, but it turns out that even if it does not reach the level of invincibility, it is far better than other sects, this is the strength of the Qi Sect.

Becoming stronger has always been what Murong Xiu is pursuing, not that he wants to prove himself to the world, nor is it to pursue ethereal power, he just wants to protect everyone around him, so even if he knows that it is a torture, he will do what Murong Bai wants.

Day after day, this inhuman torture lasted for nearly two months, and in the past two months, Murong Xiu had almost drunk more than a dozen bars of river water, and every time he returned to the water, it became his luxury to be able to breathe fresh air, because Murong Bai was very strict, and he would not let him up until the last moment.

So much so that every time he returned to the water, he felt as if his chest was about to explode, and that feeling was like hovering between life and death again and again.

It was not so much Murong Bai's tempering of his qi refining speed as it was the destruction of his will, at least in his opinion.

In fact, there is another advantage of this kind of tempering, that is, he can now hold on underwater for nearly three hours, of course, this is already his limit, if he encounters a master one day, it is also an ability to survive, coupled with the means of the Fu Array Master, even if he stays in the water for two or three days, it will not be a problem, unless the supply of vitality cannot keep up with the consumption, otherwise he can be completely hidden in the water all the time.

"Haha, Uncle Shi is finally willing to let you out, let's go, I'll let Xiao Dezi cook delicious food for the two of us, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I have to have a few drinks." ”

On this day, Murong Xiuru was amnesty, because Murong Bai told him that this stage of the tempering was over, and it was rare to let him out to relax, but Tang Xiao immediately came to him after learning the news.

"Forget it, the old man has tormented me these days, and I want to vomit when I see the water. ”

Thinking back to the river water that he drank into his stomach these days, Murong Xiu was a little stunned by the lack of wine, which was true.

"No wonder I found that you were white and fat, it turned out that you drank water, but don't blame me for not reminding you, it is likely to be the bath water of your senior sisters, hehe, you kid is blessed. ”

Tang laughed lewdly and raised his eyebrows at the small lake in the back mountain where the female disciples frequented.
