Chapter 12: Breakthrough
The next day, last night's loud noise outside the city caused an uproar in the entire city of Wuxi, so that hundreds of people were terrified, and the atmosphere in the city was extremely depressing, and after a morning of silence, it completely broke out.
The voice of public opinion swept over every corner of Wuxi City, and people's voices could be heard in almost every corner of the streets and alleys, tea houses and hotels. Although it was not clear what was going on, it was obvious that there was a strong curiosity in everyone's hearts about this matter, and the gossip heart burned in an instant.
But then again, what caused such a huge upheaval, for a while, everyone had different opinions, and the head was the Tao, which was mainly summarized as follows.
Some people say that it is a life-and-death battle between two peerless powerhouses, some people say that there are demons and monsters outside the city, specifically asking for human lives, and some people claim that they faintly heard the loud dragon groan last night, could it be that the dragon Long Yuan was resurrected in the world.
For the above statement, the people of Wuxi City are still more willing to believe in the first two, because what, not because they don't want to believe in the resurrection of Long Yuan, but mainly because in the past ten million years, Long Yuan has become the belief of the entire Long Yuan Continent, which is more similar to a spiritual pillar, so no one will want to talk nonsense about Long Yuan as a topic.
In this way, in this boiling noise, coupled with the arrival of the New Year, Wuxi City spent the most lively days of the year.
And the protagonist of this incident, Long Xiao, was about to explode in Wuxi City, in the depths of the remote and secluded bamboo forest, in a house built of thatch, Long Xiao's thin body was lying on the quilt and sleeping unconsciously.
"It seems that none of the previous medicines worked!"
The old Taoist sat on the chair and stool on the side, holding a homemade bamboo tube water cup in his hand and taking a sip from time to time, but his eyes kept glancing at Long Xiao on the quilt.
After a while, the old Taoist finally couldn't help it, took out a bottle of pill from his chest, and showed a trace of pain on his face: "Boy, I'll cheapen you first this time, my marrow cleansing pill was originally reserved for my own use, hey, how do you know that I just ran into you moldy bastard, remember to return me in the future!"
After a sigh, Lao Dao opened the cork, and in an instant, the whole thatched house was filled with a strong medicinal fragrance, greedily smelling the smell in the air, Lao Dao salivated at the corner of his mouth, and then pinched Long Xiao's cheek very reluctantly, and stuffed the pill into his mouth with a slight squeeze.
After entering the mouth, the fragrance of the elixir instantly filled the entire mouth, and then turned into a pure power that converged along Long Xiao's body to the dantian, forming a rich white energy swirling in it.
In a moment, the white energy began to slowly squirm, and then it seemed to be sensed, and a cloud of rich energy instantly turned into countless white lights the size of sesame seeds and rushed towards the damaged meridians and torn muscles of Long Xiao's body.
At this time, Long Xiao's face began to flush a little, a heat wave on the surface of his body gradually rose, and wisps of white smoke slowly floated from Long Xiao's scalp along his hair into the air.
As time passed, the temperature on Long Xiao's body surface became higher and higher, and the cold air in the entire room quickly dissipated.
In fact, in the previous battle, Long Xiao's body did not suffer any fatal injuries on the outside, mainly due to the mutation caused by the white jade pendant, which caused Long Xiao's body meridians and muscles to be seriously damaged because they could not withstand the strong force.
At this time, the old Dao's elixir played an extremely important role, under the cover of white energy, many small cracks on the meridians began to heal, the torn muscles regrew, and even Long Xiao's skin was slowly improving.
Looking at Long Xiao, whose face was becoming more and more ruddy, Lao Dao nodded slightly: "The absorption is quite fast." ”
"Whew!"
A large puff of white smoke emanated from the pores of Long Xiao's body, which was caused by the white energy healing the cracks and muscles in the meridians, and the meridians and muscles after healing were refreshed, not only more tenacious, but even the diameter of the meridians was more than doubled.
Widening the meridians can be said to be of infinite benefit to cultivators, not only can they speed up the absorption of heaven and earth aura, but the power they exert when using martial arts will also be greatly increased.
Half an hour later, the mist emitted from his whole body gradually dissipated, and Long Xiao, who was lying on the bed, suddenly frowned, and his limbs began to tremble constantly.
"Meng Rong!Meng Rong~"
kept shouting Meng Rong's name in his mouth.
"Don't... Don't leave me!"
With a fierce shout, Long Xiao sat up straight, and the cold sweat on his forehead slowly flowed down his face the size of a bean.
"Whew~Whew~"
Gasping violently in his chest, looking at the unfamiliar scene in front of him, Long Xiao's mind was in chaos, trying to recall what happened last night, Long Xiao's heart suddenly ached.
Thinking of the Tiger Dart Game and Meng Haoran's sacrifice, Meng Rong's departure, Meng Cangmao was nowhere to be found, and two lines of tears flowed unconsciously from the corners of his eyes.
At this moment, the blood in the body began to boil uncontrollably, and an extremely large amount of energy erupted from the dantian, and the spiritual power stored in the dantian was completely rioting at this moment, swimming around along the meridians.
"Boy, draw your qi into the dantian and prepare to break through!" Lao Dao's faint voice sounded in his ears.
Hearing the voice, Long Xiao did not hesitate, and silently recited the mantra in his heart, and the spirit gathering formula worked quickly, and the spiritual power that was about to explode instantly became stable.
At the same time, the countless heaven and earth aura around him became extremely active, and quickly began to circle and condense with Long Xiao as the center.
"Close!"
With a bang, all the heaven and earth aura gathered around Long Xiao seemed to have found an outlet, and they poured in frantically.
With the blessing of countless heaven and earth aura, the spiritual power in Long Xiao's body continued to roar, roll, and agitate, wanting to impact to a higher level of power.
"It's not close!"
The Gathering Spirit Technique worked to the extreme at this moment, as long as the heaven and earth aura within five meters of Long Xiao was inhaled in an instant, and there were countless aura that frantically attacked this side.
This scene made Lao Dao, who was sitting on the chair, jump up directly, and his eyes widened: "Damn, this kid is really a first glimpse of the realm, if Lao Tzu hadn't seen it with his own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it." ”
At this time, under this violent storm, the thatched house was already crumbling, if it weren't for Lao Dao's use of spiritual power to suppress it, it is estimated that it would have been blown to where it would have gone.
In fact, it took Long Xiao almost half a month to break through the Nine Layers of the First Glimpse Realm this time, compared to every time he had advanced to the first level, breaking through the Nine Layers of the First Glimpse Realm was the first difficulty he encountered in his cultivation principles.
It can be said that the aura required for this promotion is more than ten times the sum of all the previous aura, and in the face of the need for such a huge aura, Long Xiao was not discouraged as Meng Haoran and others imagined, but took one step at a time, slowly gathering through daily cultivation.
The aura continues to enter the body along the pores of the whole body, and then converges along the meridians to the dantian, repeatedly compressed, condensed, and finally transformed into more pure spiritual power.
In this process, Long Xiao riveted his strength, and the aura absorbed at the limit made the meridians that had only recovered before begin to swell slightly, but at this time, how could the pain in his body compare to the pain in his heart.
"Break it for me!"
The transformed pure spiritual power had already occupied Long Xiao's entire dantian, and with a loud shout, the dantian exploded, and a loud bang came.
Suddenly, Long Xiao's world seemed to be clear, and the things in front of him were clearer, and he knew that he had successfully stepped into the Nine Layers of the First Glimpse Realm.
The power consumed when breaking through just now quickly returned at this moment, and when he peeked into the dantian, he had lost all his spiritual power.
Closing his eyes, the aura of heaven and earth took the initiative to enter his body through the pores of his body, helping him stabilize his still somewhat floating spiritual power.
After a long time, Long Xiao opened his mouth and slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, opened his eyes suddenly, and a soul-piercing light shot out, like a sharp sword out of its sheath.
"Meng Rong, eldest brother, I will definitely kill him with my own hands to pay tribute to you!"
