In the dense forest, the sound of metal crashing began to sound.

Although this frightening had lasted for many days, the big birds in the trees with brightly colored fur and dancing to attract mates still stopped their wagging tails as they had heard for the first time, and fled with their wings screaming, regardless of the woman they liked.

However, the females with hemp gray feathers and ordinary appearances like native chickens were much calmer, still standing on the original branches, and their eyes were cast to the source of the sound, as if they wanted to see what the monster was doing, but unfortunately they couldn't see the reason for it, and after chirping twice, Shi Shiran flew away.

If someone sees Zhao Ziming's current appearance, they will indeed treat him as a monster, his upper body is naked, and there are shackles at the wrists and ankles of his limbs, and the cuffs are connected to an arm-thick iron chain, and the other end of the chain is hung with an iron ball that is hugged, and on his back, he also carries a large boxy iron block with a cloth rope, covering the entire upper body.

Four iron balls, each weighing three hundred catties, that big piece of iron, weighs four hundred catties, that is to say, when walking, not counting the four iron chains, the weight that Zhao Ziming wants to drive is enough to 1,600 catties, not to mention that he is now on a deserted rocky slope on the mountainside of Jiuli Mountain, and the strength required for each step is far beyond this number!

Don't think about it, this is the idea of the medicine old monster, he personally tested Zhao Ziming's strength that day, but he greatly underestimated his brute strength, he was shocked by a punch, and his old face was lost, I don't know if he was annoyed and angry, and came up with such a solution.

These iron balls and iron blocks alone were all customized by Zhao Ziming with great effort in the largest blacksmith shop in Futian Town.

Although the owner of the blacksmith shop was in awe of his identity as a deacon of the Lone Wolf Gang, he probably saw that he was not an old bird, and he shouted unceremoniously and scooped up most of the money he had saved in the past two years.

It was a big expense to use a horse-drawn cart to transport things up Jiuli Mountain, and Deacon Qianming was shocked to find that his waist was deflated so quickly, and he felt sorry for these dung for the first time, and made up his mind to collect more money in the future.

When he unloaded them on the side of the mountainside avenue, he attracted a lot of curious glances, and in order not to be noticeable, he moved them to the barren slope in three parts.

The first practice, the medicine old monster personally supervised. After hanging the iron ball and putting the iron block on his back, Zhao Ziming climbed up the stone slope step by step, reached the top of the slope, untied the shackles and let the iron ball roll down, and then he carried the iron block down.

Back and forth, despite sweating, Zhao Ziming felt hearty, the previous power filled his body, and there was nowhere to vent, as if the feeling of being about to explode was swept away.

But his pleasure turned into pain after the medicine monster let him continue fifteen times in a row and did not stop, he gasped, gritted his teeth, walked twenty times with trembling legs, and lay directly on the ground, without even the strength to move a finger.

Looking at the expressionless face of the old monster, he spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and guessed whether his master deliberately tossed him in revenge for being shocked by his punch.

Facts have proved that this "torture" of the medicine old monster is extremely useful, Zhao Ziming is not only adapting to the skyrocketing strength at a rapid speed, but his body is still strengthening, strength, toughness, senses, all aspects continue to improve.

The medicine monster's explanation for this is: "Most of the essence of the medicine pool you absorb is precipitated in the body and has no medicinal effect, and through this extreme boiling, your body can completely absorb it, so as to strengthen your body again." ”

Zhao Ziming asked cautiously: "Master, if I finish absorbing the medicinal effect, how far can my strength be improved?"

The old medicine monster didn't blame him for being so ambitious, he thought for a while, and said word by word: "But the battle entrance." ”

So, even if there is no supervision from the medicine boss in the future, Zhao Ziming will take the initiative to gradually increase the amount of practice, and he will be tired every day until he can't move.

Today, he can carry iron balls and iron blocks back and forth to the rocky slope 50 times a day.

After going back last night, in the middle of the night, Zhao Ziming woke up from his sleep, and suddenly felt that the bones in his body were itchy and the muscles twitched from time to time.

When he woke up this morning, he felt that his body was very different from yesterday, but he couldn't say the specific differences, so he came to Shipo in advance and started a day's practice.

He took a breath, took a step, waved his hand, and the iron ball scraped the rubble on the ground, rumbling forward, occasionally making a long and piercing sound or two.

Soon, Zhao Ziming understood that the difference between today and yesterday was that the coordination of his body had been greatly improved, and the control and use of his strength was much more reasonable than before.

To put it simply, it used to take three points to take a step with weight, but now it only takes one and a half minutes, or even less, and the same force can play more and greater roles.

Fifty years have passed, Zhao Ziming is sweating profusely, but his face is full of joy, until now, he has only spent less than half of the usual time, and as for the consumption of physical strength, it is far from reaching his limit.

Just when he wanted to continue to try how many back and forth he could hold onto, the voice of the old medicine monster suddenly sounded, "This thing is useless to you, then you can practice boxing for a few more days, and try to figure out some subtle changes in strength." ”

Zhao Ziming thought about it, nodded yes, then took off the shackles, put down the iron, and then prepared to practice boxing. The feeling of complete control over his own power was too enjoyable, and he couldn't stop it.

Unexpectedly, the old medicine monster interrupted him, "Postpone the practice for a while, go back with me first, you have to solve the trouble caused by your kid." ”

Zhao Ziming realized that Yao Laowei's face was not very good-looking, "Master, what's wrong?"

The medicine old monster asked with a calm face, "Is it you who are making a lot of nonsense in front of Wei Peizhi's apprentice to persuade the gang leader to set up another law enforcement elder?"

Zhao Ziming shook his head, "Recently, his master and apprentice have been doing dirty things with their power, and Sun Yu has bullied my friend, I just want to warn them." ”

The old medicine monster laughed angrily, "Warning, then you can directly abolish Sun Yu, why bother talking such nonsense!"

Zhao Ziming asked, "Master, are they making trouble for you?"

The old medicine monster said angrily: "It's to find trouble for you, Wei Peizhi's old guy let out a rumor, came to my medicine hall at sunset to ask for an explanation, and invited a lot of people to say anything to uphold justice." ”

Zhao Ziming was puzzled, "This is not their master-apprentice style, how can Wei Peizhi have the courage to argue with you?"

The medicine old monster snorted coldly and said lightly: "He has been in retreat for more than a month and has broken through." ”

Zhao Ziming suddenly realized.

......

Wei Peizhi was complacent at the moment, listening to the endless flattery around him, and his old face smiled brighter than the wildflowers blooming on the roadside on the mountain.

No wonder he is like this, the cultivation of martial arts, the higher and deeper it is, the more difficult it is to make progress, and the bottlenecks that are difficult to compare with one are like high mountains, blocking the progress of martial artists.

If you can't get through the hurdles, you can't break through yourself, and in front of the stronger, there will inevitably be humble times.

Before breaking through, although he was already an eighth-layer master, an elder of law enforcement, and seemed to be in a high position in the gang, he was not less deflated in front of the medicine monster who had always been at odds.

More than a month ago, the apprentice Sun Yu even told him something that made him extremely angry, the apprentice who was accepted by the medicine boss actually threatened to persuade the gang leader to change the law enforcement elder.

It's tolerable, it's unbearable!

Angry and rushed to the crown to scold Sun Yu for a bloody head, and then smashed his beloved purple clay pot that he had carried with him for many years, Wei Peizhi still endured it, without him, he couldn't beat others.

He was deeply stimulated by this, and with unquenched anger, he went into retreat! Therefore, the opportunity to make friends with the imperial court officials such as Taiwei Zhang Chengyi was missed.

After more than 20 years of being stuck in the eighth layer of internal force, Wei Peizhi has long had no hope of breaking through the bottleneck, and what he usually pays attention to is gold and silver treasures and prestige in the gang, so the position of law enforcement elder is very much in line with his heart.

This so-called retreat is just an excuse to soothe anger and unwillingness.

As the saying goes, "Life is like a play." "Wei Peizhi unintentionally inserted willows into the shade, and when he was in retreat, he inexplicably broke through the bottleneck and was promoted to the ninth layer of internal force.

As soon as the fist is hard, the waist board will be straight, since he has the capital to fight against the medicine monster and has the opportunity to send it to the door, Wei Peizhi is willing to let it go, and secretly swears in his heart that he wants the little beast named Qianming to pay the price, and at the same time give the medicine monster a dismount!

The more he thought about it, the more relieved he became, Wei Peizhi put the purple clay pot in his palm to his mouth and took a sip. This pot was sent by one of his hall masters after he broke the news of his promotion to the ninth floor, and it was of extremely high quality, just above the one he had broken.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Wei Peizhi got up and said: "I'm tired of everyone, wait to punish the little beast who has no one in your eyes, please come to the cold house again, the old man will have a banquet, and he will not get drunk tonight." ”

There was naturally a burst of cheers around them, and there were a few elders in the crowd, although they were not too flattering because of their status, but their appearance here was in itself a disguised flattery to Wei Peizhi.

Coming to the medicine hall, everyone was led into the hall and sat down, there were already several people sitting in the hall, the gang leader Mu Zijing, the medicine old monster, the great elder Long Yan, the second elder Meng Jian, and the fifth elder, almost all the high-level leaders of the lone wolf gang gathered here.

There should still be a number of courtesies, Wei Peizhi and the people he brought bowed to Mu Zijing, and the latter nodded in response.

They all sat down, and before Wei Peizhi could speak, Mu Zijing said first: "Congratulations to the law enforcement elder for advancing to the ninth layer and adding another first-class master to my lone wolf gang." ”

Wei Peizhi smiled politely, "The helper is polite, as a member of the gang, the old man can have today, thanks to the love and support of all the brothers." ”

Mu Zijing said: "I have heard a little about the intention of the three elders to visit the medicine hall, but as the elder said, everyone is a brother, I hope that the law enforcement elder will look at the face of the medicine elder and give Qianming a chance to forgive him for a while." ”
