Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Bottleneck of Appointment

From this day on, Gui Zhong and Yuan Chengzhi were talking about martial arts in Siguo Cliff, both of them were first-class masters, swordsmanship was subtle, although Gui Zhong's internal strength was still a lot worse than Yuan Chengzhi, but his swordsmanship cultivation was not under Yuan Chengzhi, so that the two were almost competing with swords every day, and then debating with each other.

Whooshing sword light flying, Gui Zhong and Yuan Chengzhi are competing swords, one of them makes Xiyi swordsmanship, and the other makes thirteen swords of ever-changing clouds and mist, the sword speed is as fast as lightning, and more than a dozen swords came out in an instant, one sword qi is invisible, one sword light is dreamy, and all kinds of subtleties in swordsmanship are shown in their hands.

The tricks are sometimes concise, sometimes complicated, and the two of them have reached the peak of their control of sword moves, and every move is extremely exquisite.

After a sword fight, Gui Zhong and Yuan Chengzhi both put away their swords and stood silently, thinking silently, this is already their normal state these days, comparing swords, thinking, and confirming.

In such a state, whether it is Gui Zhong or Yuan Chengzhi, the swordsmanship cultivation of both of them is improving and improving at an extremely terrifying speed.

"Uncle Shi, how is it?"

After a long time, Gui Zhong asked.

Yuan Chengzhi didn't answer, the long sword in his hand moved, and he crossed a mysterious arc, with a mysterious charm, as if he had not come out, and several moves in a row changed, simple and direct, but Gui Zhong saw a trace of difference from it, these few tricks changed, it seemed that the back moves were endless, and it seemed that there was no change, and the weirdness and unpredictability in it were boring.

"Alas, the realm of sword moves is complete, I have already reached it, but these days of understanding the swordsmanship in the cave, but I found that it is still not perfect, and it is still a little difficult to promote to the next realm, just evolve a few changes, it is difficult to continue, and it seems that I still can't cultivate. ”

Yuan Chengzhi frowned slightly, as if there were countless doubts in his heart, and said silently.

"Well, the sword moves are complete, there are still many changes in this realm, and I also feel that I have not reached the peak, and if I want to break through to a higher level and reach the realm of no moves, it is difficult to achieve it overnight. ”

Gui Zhong sighed, Yuan Chengzhi had never broken through, and it was even more difficult for him to break through, that layer of the realm was mysterious and mysterious, and it was difficult to speculate.

"It's a pity that there was a subtle mastery in my Huashan faction back then, as long as you have enough understanding, you can step into the realm of no tricks step by step, and the bottleneck is minimal, but this swordsmanship is afraid that it has been lost. ”

Gui Zhong really came to this point, and the more he felt the power of the Dugu Nine Swords, the idea was to win without a move, and break through the world's martial arts with a set of swordsmanship, what a profound and terrifying realm.

"You're talking about Dugu Nine Swords, this swordsmanship was also mentioned by your ancestor back then, but it's a pity that my Huashan faction underwent great changes back then, and this kind of wonderful swordsmanship has not been passed down, otherwise you can understand it." ”

Yuan Chengzhi also looked fascinated.

"Forget it, the way of martial arts, in the later stage, the emphasis is on enlightenment, it is impossible to achieve it overnight, everything still needs chance, maybe once you have an epiphany, you can break through, maybe you will be stuck in this step for a lifetime. ”

Yuan Chengzhi's eyes returned to clarity, his mood was lofty, although he was a little disappointed, but he didn't pay too much attention to it, with his current martial arts cultivation, he had already reached the peak level of martial arts, and it was not easy to break through, it was already very good to be able to make progress in these days, which he was very open.

"Uncle Shi, how far have you cultivated the Mixed Yuan Gong now?"

Gui Zhong is no longer entangled in the problem of swordsmanship, but asked about internal strength, swordsmanship is only external learning, the way to resist the enemy, if you want to reach the highest level of martial arts, you still have to work internal strength.

"Mixed Yuan Gong? My current mixed Yuan Gong has reached the last weight, only one step away from being complete, but the difference between this step is thousands of miles away, I have all opened up the eight veins of the Qi Jing, and the internal force runs through the whole body, but there is still one step away, there is no connection between Ren and Du, Yin and Yang have never been mutually beneficial, this step is also the most critical step, once successful, it is a pulse through a hundred pulses, Yin and Yang, water and fire are compatible, but unfortunately, this last step I have been thinking about for more than ten years, but this step has still not been taken out. ”

Speaking of the cultivation of the inner family, Yuan Chengzhi's face was heavy, and he spoke eloquently, and Gui Zhong was shocked when he heard it.

"Uncle Shi, is it so difficult just to get through to the governor?"

He was a little puzzled, he had been practicing hard all these years, day by day, his inner family had achieved success, and half of the eight veins of the Qi Jing had been opened, but he had never encountered too many bottlenecks, not to mention things like Yuan Chengzhi, who had not succeeded in staying at the one-step checkpoint for more than ten years.

"This step is very difficult, that is, when your ancestor was known as the sword immortal ape, the world's first master, the internal strength is only the same as me, never took this last step, these years, I have been practicing every day, vaguely feel that this step seems to contain great danger, impact to the last moment, always lack of energy, can not succeed, only a trace, is this trace, it has blocked me for more than ten years. ”

Yuan Chengzhi's expression was gloomy, and there was a faint trace of uneasiness.

"What's going on? Only when the two veins of Ren Du are connected can it be regarded as the real acquired perfection, and if you have never achieved congenital success, there will be such difficulties?"

Gui Zhong was a little unbelievable.

"Yes, this through Ren Du, it seems to have been greatly disturbed, maybe this piece of heaven and earth is no longer suitable for breakthrough, the essence between heaven and earth is insufficient, the last step of the breakthrough, it is necessary to communicate the essence of heaven and earth, and assist their own internal force to really break through the level, but over the years I have tried no less than a dozen times, each time it is a failure at the last moment. ”

Gui Zhong chuckled in his heart, "The end of martial arts, the end of martial arts, is this the end of martial arts? Just one step of Ren Du and the second vein are so big obstacles? Heaven and earth essence is insufficient, yes, penetrating Ren Du requires a large amount of internal force to impact, but the human body is limited, and the internal force that can be stored is so much, at this time, you need the help of heaven and earth essence, if it is really a lack of heaven and earth essence, then wouldn't all martial artists have to be stuck in this step?"

Thinking of this, Gui Zhong's face turned a little pale, he was reborn in this life, and he didn't ask for much, that is, to verify the martial arts, but according to Yuan Chengzhi's statement, wouldn't the road ahead have been cut off?

"Hehe, you don't have to think about it, I have also begun to think of other ways over the years, this heaven and earth essence is insufficient, no one can do it, to my point, if you want to continue to walk, step into the legendary innate realm, you can only think of a way from other aspects, this time I returned to the Central Plains, but also want to find some pill formulas from my Huashan classics, maybe you can use the help of pills to complete the breakthrough of the last step. ”

Yuan Chengzhi's eyes were flickering, his tone was firm, and he had a great determination not to give up until he reached his goal.

"Pills, yes, the essence of heaven and earth is insufficient, you can use pills, as long as you refine the pills that enhance your strength, you should not be a problem if you take them when you break through. ”

Gui Zhong's heart lit up, this truth was very clear, he just didn't react for a while, think about it at this time, when he went to Changbai Mountain outside the Guanwai, didn't he swallow a lot of tonics, and this is how much his skills have improved.

"This is just a guess on my part, as for whether it can be done, I have to try again to know, okay, we have been practicing in the Siguo Cliff retreat for more than a month, and I am ready to go out for a walk. ”

Yuan Chengzhi had a faint smile on his face, and it seemed that his mood had suddenly changed a lot better, which surprised Gui Zhong.

"Uncle Shi, what are you going to do when you are going out for a walk, do you want us to go together?"

"No need, I'm going out this time to meet your Uncle of the Nine Tribulations. ”

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Chengzhi's face turned slightly red, and Gui Zhong felt that the sky was falling, what was going on?

"Ah, you're going to see Uncle Nine Tribulations, does that Aunt Xia agree?"

This is unreasonable, with Xia Qingqing's personality, how could Yuan Chengzhi be allowed to meet the Nine Tribulations, Gui Zhong just made a little joke some time ago, which made Xia Qingqing almost go crazy, how did it change so quickly?

"Your Aunt Xia naturally agrees, we will go together this time. ”

Yuan Chengzhi laughed, his figure flashed and jumped off the cliff, Gui Zhong looked at his back, and still didn't figure out the truth.

"Forget it, you can solve the affairs of the previous generation by yourself, what do I have to worry about here. ”

After figuring it out, Gui Zhong didn't bother to pay attention to it and began to meditate and practice.

He talked about martial arts with Yuan Chengzhi these days, which was also a great help to himself, and he learned every day, not only his experience increased greatly, and his swordsmanship improved, but also for his internal strength to hone his strength.

Up to now, Gui Zhong's internal strength has begun the cultivation of the ninth layer of the day after tomorrow, this time he wants to break through the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, this meridian restricts the scriptures, for the inner martial artists, once the belt veins are opened, there will be a mysterious ability, with the majestic and vast internal force, forming a layer of protective body Gang Qi, although it has no effect on the martial artists of the same realm, but for those with low skills, it is not easy to break this layer of body protection Gang Qi.

At the beginning of the battle of Fuhu Villa, if Gui Zhong had a vein through and condensed his body protection qi, as long as his internal strength was sufficient, it would not be easy for others to hurt him, let alone be seriously injured.

Half an hour later, Gui Zhong got up and went down the mountain, and the internal force increased again, and it was not long before the time to open the belt vein.

Early the next morning, when Gui Zhong came back from practicing swords, Yuan Chengzhi and Xia Qingqing had already gone down the mountain.

"Forget it, I'd better go on my own. ”

Gui Zhong thought of the scene where Yuan Chengzhi and the Nine Difficulties Master met, and he was a little looking forward to it, but unfortunately he was embarrassed to catch up and take a look at such things.

The capital is still the same, prosperous and beautiful, and bustling with people.

Gui Zhong came to the capital again with one person and one sword, he came to find Wei Xiaobao this time, and there is still a layer of fate between the two.

returned to his house and recruited the housekeeper Huang Er.

"Huang Er, has Wei Xiaobao come recently?"

Wei Xiaobao, where he lived in the capital, still knew that if there was anything, this kid would definitely come to the door.

"Dao Chief, Brother Wei came once a few days ago, saying that he was leaving the capital, and when he saw that Dao Chang was not there, he left the news and left. ”

"Oh, where is he leaving the capital?"

Gui Zhong frowned, he thought that Wei Xiaobao was still in the capital, so things would be much easier.

At the moment, Wei Xiaobao is not in the capital, which is a bit difficult.

"Dao Chief, don't you know, the capital is lively these days, Princess Jianning in the palace is going to marry Yunnan, and the Wei brothers went together as a marriage history, and they have been gone for four or five days!"

"Yunnan marriage?"

Gui Zhong patted his head, and he almost forgot about it.

"Okay, you go down first, it seems that Poor Dao is also going to Yunnan. ”
