Chapter 18: Refining the Body

Xiao Ling carefully checked the medicinal liquid in the jade bowl, and after feeling that there was no problem, he stripped off his clothes and applied the medicinal liquid in the jade bowl to his body.

After the liquid medicine was applied to his body, Xiao Ling felt a cold breath seeping into his skin, and with the infiltration of this cold air, Xiao Ling's musculoskeletals seemed to be manna in a long-dry place, constantly devouring this cold air, and the cold air was everywhere, and the musculoskeletal muscles were making sneering sounds, Xiao Ling felt that the musculoskeletal was quietly growing and growing, and this growth and growth could be felt, if it continued, the body would inevitably undergo great changes, and it would be incredibly powerful.

The next moment, Xiao Ling operated the small amount of Yuan Force in his body according to the refining method given by Chen Li, and Xiao Ling's palm kept changing various seal methods.

With the change of Xiao Ling's handprint, the surrounding air hissed as if it was being pulled, and gradually formed a cyclone around Xiao Ling's body, and the cyclone was five-colored, which was the qi of the essence of heaven and earth.

When the vortex of Jing Yuan Qi was formed, the five-colored Jing Yuan Qi passed through Xiao Ling's skin and continuously entered Xiao Ling's body, refining Xiao Ling's musculoskeletal and internal organs.

According to the method of refining the body, when refining the body, it must be tempered with yuan force, and for the general low-level refining body, the yuan force in the body is insufficient, and it is far from achieving the purpose of quenching the body, only by using the exercise method to absorb the essence of heaven and earth to quench the body, and Xiao Ling has now successfully put the essence of heaven and earth into operation, although the scope is very small, but this situation that can only control the qi of heaven and earth essence can only be controlled by the Dan realm, and now it appears in a cultivator who has just forged the second weight of the body, if people know the Tao, it is a bit unbelievable.

When the essence qi entered his body, Xiao Ling felt a scorching qi permeate his whole body almost instantly, and this scorching qi continued to wash away the musculoskeletal and internal organs. As the burning sensation spreads, the burning pain gradually turns into a burning pain, which spreads from all over the body, this burning pain is the kind of pain that penetrates deep into the bone marrow, and the burning pain becomes more and more intense as the essence qi continues to seep in.

The burning pain continued, and gradually the burning pain extended from the musculoskeletal to the internal organs, and when the burning pain continued, Xiao Ling's face had been completely deformed, this pain completely exceeded Xiao Ling's expectations, this pain was far from being able to withstand a child of more than ten years. Xiao Ling tried his best to suppress himself and not let himself yell out, because once he yelled, he might attract others to snoop, which was something Xiao Ling tried his best to avoid.

However, the burning pain was not only stimulating Xiao Ling's body, but the next moment, the burning pain began to invade Xiao Ling's consciousness. When the burning pain invaded his consciousness, Xiao Ling only felt that his brain suddenly buzzed, as if it had become larger, and countless air currents were impacting his brain. And when the air flow hits, Xiao Ling's consciousness becomes larger and chaotic, and his consciousness will dissipate at any time.

Xiao Ling tried his best to maintain the last trace of clarity in his consciousness, not to let the burning pain erode his consciousness, and the burning pain hit the trace of clarity behind Xiao Ling at all times, once this trace of clarity is eroded, then Xiao Ling will become a living dead.

Time passed little by little, Xiao Ling stubbornly guarded his clarity, and under the persistence of the most lucid clarity, Xiao Ling's consciousness was never eroded by the burning pain, and under this perseverance, Xiao Ling gradually became numb to the strong burning pain.

From the perseverance of the beginning of the hard work, to Xiao Ling's gradual adaptation to the burning pain, Xiao Ling passed three days, and under the torment of this pain in three days, Xiao Ling's body gradually became stronger, and in three days, Xiao Ling's body grew a few inches taller, his bones became larger, and his skin became much harder. However, Xiao Ling hasn't felt these yet.

In the past three days, Xiao Ling has continued to hold on, until the burning pain slowly fades, Xiao Ling knows that the difficult moment has passed. At this time, Xiao Ling felt that not only his body had become stronger, but even the power of his mind had increased a lot, which was obviously beyond Xiao Ling's expectations.

In fact, refining the body could not enhance the power of the mind in the first place, but Xiao Ling was too early when he refined the body. Originally, according to Chen Li's method of refining the body, because the refining of the body is too difficult, at least you can start refining the body until the qi gathering period, but now Xiao Ling has just forged the body twice, if you refine the body, because the pain during the refining is extraordinary, it is unbearable, which will cause the collapse of consciousness, and once the consciousness collapses, then Xiao Ling is no different from a dead person. Therefore, Xiao Ling's body refining at this time is basically looking for death, and Xiao Ling's mental power has played a key role in these few days, if he hadn't kept the most clear mind, then his consciousness would have completely collapsed. However, because Xiao Ling persevered, and after the stimulation of pain, his thoughts were also able to grow in persistence, which Chen Li probably never expected.

When the pain subsided, Xiao Ling's mind was able to regain control of his body, and his body at this time had undergone great changes, not only his skin emitted a faint yellow glow, but also his bones were almost larger, his body had also become taller, and most importantly, his muscles seemed to have accumulated infinite strength. And that's just the beginning.

After Xiao Ling's consciousness returned, he ran the technique of refining the body to increase the absorption speed of the essence element's qi, so the essence essence qi vortex, which was originally only the size of a zhang, expanded to nearly three zhang in size, and the essence essence qi also became more viscous, like a viscous liquid.

In the whirlpool, countless five-colored filaments of light submerged into Xiao Ling's body, and after these filaments entered the body, they rushed straight into the musculoskeletal and internal organs of the body.

As more Jing Yuan Qi entered his body, there was a faint black qi coming out of the musculoskeletal and internal organs in Xiao Ling's body, these black qi had a strong corrosive force, and under the erosion of the black qi, the Jing Yuan Qi instantly turned into nothingness, but with the entry of more Jing Yuan Qi, these black qi were forced away from Xiao Ling's body.

The black qi that forced away from the body was wrapped in the essence qi in the whirlpool, making a snorting sound, emitting white smoke, and instantly turned into nothing.

These black gases are the dead air in the human body, under normal circumstances, the dead air is hidden in the human body, and there is usually no harm, but when the human body changes, the dead air will emerge from the body, and then harm the body.

The first step in the method of refining the body is to quench the body with the essence of the qi to force out the dead qi in the body, and only when the dead qi is forced out can the following body refining be carried out.

Seeing the black gas constantly coming out and turning into nothing, Xiao Ling's heart couldn't help but twitch, he didn't expect that there would be so much dead gas in his body, if these dead qi broke out, he would die in an instant.

However, Xiao Ling also knew that it was impossible to clear the dead qi at one time, and if he wanted to completely clear the dead qi in his body, he had to at least complete the cultivation of Chenli's body refining technique, and he didn't know if the body refining spell given by Lu Dao Chenli was complete.

However, at the moment, Xiao Ling can feel that the musculoskeletal and internal organs are constantly getting stronger under the washing of the essence and energy, this is only preliminary, if it continues, the current strength of the body Xiao Ling can not imagine.

Time passed little by little, and three days and three nights passed in a blink of an eye, and Xiao Ling's body no longer emitted black gas, and his whole body emitted a faint yellow light, it seemed that Xiao Ling's first step was quite successful.

When the body no longer emitted black qi, Xiao Ling did not stop absorbing the essence of the qi, but instead increased the speed, so a whirlpool more than three zhang in size expanded in the side hall, at this time, the essence of the qi turned into countless five-colored points of light, these points of light were attracted by Xiao Ling, and constantly poured into Xiao Ling's body. After entering the body, these essence qi penetrates into the musculoskeletal, internal organs, and bone marrow.

A feeling of numbness spread throughout Xiao Ling's body, and Xiao Ling knew that this was washing the marrow of the Book of Changes. Once the I Ching is completed, not only will the strength of the physical body be greatly improved, but even the speed at which the body absorbs the essence qi will be much faster. Therefore, most cultivators in the upper realm will be supplemented by the art of body refining, but few of them have cultivated the art of body refining to the extreme, this is because the further you go, the more difficult it is to cultivate, and the art of body refining needs to be combined with a lot of heavenly and earthly treasures, these heavenly materials and earthly treasures are also very rare, and some are even just legendary things. Therefore, most of the people in the upper realm cultivated the art of refining the body to speed up the absorption of the essence qi, and rarely did it for fighting. However, Xiao Ling had just begun to cultivate the art of body refining, and he felt a great gain, and he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart. Under the current situation, Xiao Ling is completely sure that he will break through the forging body quadruple within two years.

Xiao Ling stabilized his mind and continued to absorb the essence of the qi, and these essence qi were not only refining the body, but also a lot of them were automatically tempered and condensed according to the method of forging the body, and then integrated into the essence qi in the dantian. The essence qi in the dantian was constantly growing at a speed that Xiao Ling could see, and this speed was far from being comparable to ordinary cultivation, but Xiao Ling knew that there was also a limit. In just this short half an hour, Xiao Ling knew that the essence qi in the Dao Dantian had reached the cultivation results of more than ten days in the usual days, which was really unexpected.

An hour later, the whirlpool of essence qi in the side hall slowly dissipated, and everything returned to calm, but at this time, Xiao Ling's heart couldn't calm down, his body had changed too much, and he still needed to adapt to it well.

At this time, Xiao Ling opened his eyes, looked at his skin, looked inward and carefully looked at the faint yellow light emitted on the musculoskeletal body, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face, the time of the first step was much longer than Chenli's cultivation method, but seeing the musculoskeletal changes was better than expected, obviously the physical strength had increased too much, but this was not enough, the art of refining the body was far from being so simple, the next step was the most dangerous, as long as the next level could be passed, the body refining could begin.

When Xiao Ling was refining the body and washing the marrow, there were a lot of disciples gathered outside the side hall at this time, these disciples were all surprised to see the essence of the entire body forging hall turn into a light filament and submerge into the side hall, some knowledgeable disciples realized that this ability to control the essence of the essence qi seemed to have to wait until the Dan realm, is this really a person who has just forged the body and cultivated for a long time?

If Uncle Ma hadn't stopped them, these disciples would have broken into the door a long time ago. However, Uncle Ma was also puzzled, he didn't have the ability to control the Heaven and Earth Essence Yuan Qi, how did this Xiao Ling, who was only forging two bodies, do it? Although he had some doubts in his heart, Uncle Ma still drove away the disciples outside the side hall with a calm face. But I was still muttering in my heart, it seems that this Xiao Ling is really not simple.

At the same time, Yu Xue Ling, Lu Jian and other disciples of some larger families took out the Wanli Talisman one after another and reported the matter to their own family or sect, and for a while, the entire Body Forging Hall was constantly talking, but Xiao Ling himself didn't know about it, otherwise he would definitely not have cultivated the body refining technique in this side hall.

And Mei Jue was a little worried about Xiao Ling at this time, for fear that something would happen to Xiao Ling, until Uncle Ma told her that Xiao Ling was fine, she was slightly relieved, but in the past few days, Mei Jue has been guarding outside the side hall every inch. When Uncle Ma saw Mei Jue's appearance, he didn't stop her, and let Mei Jue stay outside the side hall, but just moved Mei Jue's body forging outside the side hall and let her continue to cultivate.

Xiao Ling in the hall didn't know anything about this, and after checking it carefully, there was nothing wrong with his body, Xiao Ling took out a black jade bottle that was a foot high, which was the blood of the black toad beast that Xiao Ling exchanged from Uncle Ma.

The black toad beast is a well-known poisonous beast, which looks like a toad, but has a pair of wings, and the average adult black toad beast can reach the level of a monk in the Qi gathering period. However, due to the high poison, ordinary Dan Realm monks are more afraid of the black toad beast. Because the black toad beast flies fast, and the venom spewed out of its mouth can be more than a hundred zhang away, once it is hit, even the chance of survival of the Dan Realm monk is less than thirty percent, and the black toad beast itself has little value, only some monks who cultivate the method of poison will be interested. Therefore, under normal circumstances, not many people provoke the black toad beast, but there are still some people who will use the essence blood of the black toad beast to make poison, and the poison made from the essence blood of the black toad beast can be killed by the monks of the Yun God Realm. It's just that this poison is very difficult to refine, and generally only monks who have reached the Dan realm will have no more than a 10% chance of refining it.

However, the essence blood of the black toad beast has another use, that is, as a body refining holy object, it can not only make the body stronger, but also remove some hidden injuries in the body due to cultivation, and another effect is to enhance the body's resistance to some poisons. These are all mentioned in the method of refining the body given by Chenli.

Looking at the black jade bottle in front of him, Xiao Ling's face showed a solemn look, and he carefully opened the cap of the bottle, and suddenly a fishy smell spread in the side hall, Xiao Ling was dizzy, and almost fell to the ground.

Xiao Ling shook his heavy head and took a deep breath.

"Come on, no matter how difficult it is, I have to pass this level! I don't believe that a big living person can't cure a ball of essence blood!"
