Chapter 217: 214: Physical Power

As the saying goes, every level is difficult, but you can overcome it!
Let’s live our lives, no matter how sad they are, we have to live one day at a time.

After calming down, Chu Zhou sorted out the matter again in detail. He always felt that Ba Zong was behind this.

Xiong Kuohai’s combat power far exceeds that of ordinary grandmasters, and this is something that cannot be concealed.

Therefore, it makes sense to directly announce the reason and draw the attention of warriors all over the world to Xuanzhen Temple.

However, thinking about it the other way around, there is another puzzling point to point out. How powerful is the Naba Sect? It is ranked among the top four major sects in the world. Why does it still need the help of Xuanzhen Temple to ward off disasters?

This is an unsolvable problem, and Chu Zhou did not dwell on it too much. What he needed to think about more now was the pros and cons of this matter.

The disadvantages are very obvious. Xuanzhen Temple and even Tianquan County have entered the vision of martial artists all over the world.

Even if it is for the philosophy of Xuanzhen Temple’s secret martial arts, who knows how much trouble it will cause!
No matter if it is good or evil, the imperial court, the devil sect, or various secret forces, even if they do not believe in it in their hearts, they will inevitably seek the secrets of body tempering martial arts.

The worst thing is that even if Chu Zhou printed out the secret martial arts concepts of Xuanzhen Temple and sold them everywhere, he still couldn’t solve the problem.

Human nature has already determined that they will have some doubts and disbelief about things that are obtained too easily.

There was no solution, so Chu Zhou could only issue twelve secret orders in succession and pass them on to every sect in Tianquan County, asking them to be careful, careful, and careful again!

If you notice something wrong, immediately ask for help from Xuanzhen Temple, and Xuanzhen Temple will send someone to deal with it.

As for the interior of Xuanzhen Temple, strengthening vigilance and training is necessary, but this is only superficial work.

Chu Zhou’s biggest reliance was still the ‘Five Elements Flag’. With this kind of early warning device, he didn’t believe that anyone could evade detection silently.

As for the benefits, of course there are some, for example, the side quest one of the Jieying Hall is world-famous, which is really hopeful.

Chu Zhou felt that the reason why this task had not been completed yet was that it would probably take some time to ferment.

The upper echelons of this world, the martial arts sects, aristocratic families, and the royal family, have all sorts of communication methods, so the exchange of information is quick and close.

But the middle and lower classes mostly rely on books, letters, word of mouth and storytellers, so it still takes time for information to spread.

With this as a foundation, Chu Zhou did not cherish the remaining merit points too much, but exchanged them for a course without hesitation – “The Immortal Way of Killing”

The immortal way values ​​life, and what it seeks is longevity, freedom and ease. However, eight out of ten things in this world are not as we wish, and conflicts are almost inevitable, so the art of protecting the way is also necessary!

But having the skills to protect oneself does not mean that one has the ability to fight. Fighting experience is also extremely important.

“The Immortal Way of Killing” is a course designed for this purpose. It can create an illusion, and then combine one’s own realm, physique, martial arts, techniques, as well as magical instruments and treasures to create a real mirror image.

The opponents are set according to their strength, but there are also different options, such as magic cultivators, weapon cultivators, talisman cultivators, sword cultivators, ghost cultivators, demon cultivators, body cultivators, puppet masters, beast masters, etc.

There are hundreds of choices, covering almost all types you may encounter. Then the two sides will fight against each other, fight to the death, accumulate experience, and review the game afterwards!
That’s right, this course is to teach you how to fight? How to fight? And how to exert your strongest strength?

Chu Zhou thought that he should be pretty good too, he practiced both immortality and martial arts, mastered many skills, and had two magical instruments, if anyone told others about him he would have to be praised as “arrogant”, so he was definitely not bad!
But if a real fight breaks out, the misery will be untold!
The first swordsman who matched him directly flew the sword from a distance, using the kite-flying tactic to wear him out, leaving him no room to maneuver.

The second match was with a magician. Chu Zhou also wanted to use a flying sword, but he could not resist the other party’s proficiency in magic.

Various methods of defense, counterattack, control, attack, etc. emerged one after another, and he was killed instantly by simply unleashing a smooth combo.

The third one was Fu Xiu. This time Chu Zhou took the initiative and directly summoned clouds, mist and lightning, transforming himself into a blue sea dragon. He wanted to give him a big one and show off his own power.

It’s a pity that the talisman cultivator opened the altar and threw out hundreds of talismans of various kinds. As a result, the thunderclouds in the sky became uncontrollable and began to attack the Blue Sea Dragon.

Chu Zhou experienced for the first time what it felt like to be struck by lightning, and he was truly in ecstasy.

The fourth one is the formation cultivator.

This time, Chu Zhou was really angry, and he used the Azure Sea Dragon, killing moves, magic, flying sword, and even one yuan of heavy water.

Of course there was an effect. The cultivators who were initially attacked were in a panic and fled everywhere.

But later Chu Zhou realized that they were surveying the terrain and setting up the formation. Three or five formation flags were dropped and then activated with the help of the formation plate.

Then, Chu Zhou lost his way and wandered around like a ghost.

When he finally broke through the restrictions, he found that the world outside was blocked tightly.

The formation had one level after another and it was impossible to break through. In the end, Chu Zhou was stuck in place and tortured to death bit by bit.

Then, the fifth battle, the sixth battle, the seventh battle…

Chu Zhou had fought thirteen battles in a row and never won once. He was beaten so badly that he began to doubt his life and felt that all the battles he had encountered before were fake.

However, after getting used to dying, Chu Zhou finally began to reflect.

Gradually, he figured out why he was so weak.

You have to admit that Chu Zhou’s learnings were diverse, including martial arts, magic, body training, sword techniques…

If one of these is practiced to a high level, it would be an extremely remarkable achievement. However, he, with a hammer here and a stick there, seems to have many methods, but in fact, none of them has been brought to the extreme.

If he were facing warriors, he would be able to show off his power for a while by relying on his novel methods.

But in the judgment of the Jieying Hall, an immortal cultivator like him who knows a lot but is not proficient in any of them and is not good at killing is just a piece of cake!

Frankly speaking, this conclusion made Chu Zhou feel helpless. He felt like he had struggled for decades but was still an NPC in the novice village.

However, he is a person who dares to admit his mistakes and constantly correct them.

When he calmed down, he would summarize his strengths, strengthen the coordination between magic and martial arts, and occasionally use the ‘Zhu Tian Yan Fa Platform’ to deduce and optimize.

Although there was no substantial breakthrough, in terms of killing power alone, he was improving at a speed that even amazed himself.

His martial arts and magic skills became more and more sophisticated. He accumulated rich experience in battle after battle. He developed several techniques to use them. His killing power gradually approached the standard judged by the Jieyin Hall…

These visible improvements calmed his originally restless heart.

Of course, the art of killing is important, but comparatively speaking, cultivation is more important.

However, without the assistance of elixirs and the gathering of spirits by formations, even a true immortal technique like “The Inverted Sky River Method” requires accumulating magic power bit by bit.

It had not been long since Chu Zhou broke through to the late stage of foundation building. If he wanted to reach the peak of foundation building, a realm strong enough to form a pill, he would need more time to accumulate the foundation.

However, this does not mean that he has not made progress.

To be precise, it is a martial arts transfusion. After such a long period of continuous advancement, it has finally reached the final step.

……

vomit!
On the top of the solitary peak, sitting on a bamboo chair, Chu Zhou hunched over and vomited violently. Pools of black blood fell into the wooden barrel, emitting an alarming bloody smell.

After a long while, Chu Zhou finally stopped. He waved his hand and a stream of water gathered and fell into his mouth. After rinsing his mouth several times, he felt better.

But this is not over yet!
When he felt better, he sat cross-legged, and his magic power accumulated layer by layer in the meridians and acupoints until it turned into overwhelming pressure and then gathered in specific acupoints. Blood spurted out from between his left and right index fingers.

The same black blood, dark, rotten, with an astonishing bloody smell, was like a clear spring at first, and then gradually became less, but Chu Zhou never stopped.

Just like this, the magic power circulated over and over again, sweeping through every blood vessel, every organ, every inch of muscle, every bone…

The blood inside will be filtered over and over again, and all new blood, even contaminated new blood, will be discharged from the body.

Every bit, every drop, not a single drop left! In martial arts, since the “blood transfusion”, it has entered a slow period of cultivation.

Not to mention rapid progress and courageous advancement, even ordinary practice is very slow, so slow that Chu Zhou is almost losing his patience.

But this is the sedimentation that a blood transfusion must go through. Only when all the old blood in the body is cleared out without a drop left, can the blood transfusion be considered complete.

In fact, most warriors cannot and will not reach perfection in this step.

Because blood circulation is the most important circulatory system in the human body. It occurs almost all the time and involves every capillary and cell.

Old blood and new blood are mixed together, and over time they become mixed together. It is very difficult to separate and eliminate them.

That is Chu Zhou, who not only had the martial arts skills of this world, but also the courses and instruction in the Jieying Hall, combined the two and finally found the real solution.

The special circulation and pressurization of the meridian acupoints is actually equivalent to an artificial separator in the body, which can filter out the old blood over and over again and discharge it out of the body.

Of course, this is a very long process that requires a lot of polishing.

Needless to say, Chu Zhou spent a lot of time on this. He himself couldn’t remember how long it had been since he made any major progress in martial arts.

However, he has never stopped his necessary training, and all the results are being tested today.

When the last drop of blood dripped from his fingers, the circulation of magic power still did not stop. It lasted for a full stick of incense, and when there was still no old blood, he finally dispersed the circulation of magic power.

Then, another cycle began. Chu Zhou gasped for breath, and the spiritual energy he swallowed into his body gathered in several hematopoietic organs.

As a result, new blood begins to be produced rapidly and fills the body’s blood circulation. As the heartbeat accelerates, the blood transports more nutrients and vitality to all parts of the body.

As a result, Chu Zhou’s originally pale face began to turn rosy, and vitality filled every part of his body at a speed visible to the naked eye, even breaking through the original limit at an extremely fast speed.

Chu Zhou’s eyes became brighter and brighter. He pressed his hands on the void and exerted force suddenly. The air exploded and under the reaction force, he stood up.

After taking a few steps forward and finding an open space, Chu Zhou stretched his muscles and bones, then began to practice boxing.

When he practices boxing now, he no longer dares to use his full strength as that would make too much noise. However, practicing boxing while restraining his strength is still a good exercise.

It was also at this moment that Chu Zhou clearly felt the vitality coming from his body, like a new life, endless and inexhaustible.

In comparison, the outside world is full of resistance!

The air has turned into water, or even a more viscous liquid. His every move is bound, and he must break these shackles.

This made him unable to help but flex more muscles, integrate stronger tendons and bones, and ultimately burst out with even greater power.

Of course, in his perception, his punches were still very slow, and his movements were still clear, as clear as an old grandfather practicing Tai Chi.

Only the ripples caused by the fist wind seemed a little extraordinary, but also very soothing.

But in the outside world, in everyone’s eyes, at this moment, Chu Zhou’s figure could no longer be seen.

There was only a shadow moving around, and visible air ripples spreading outward, as if a hurricane tornado had suddenly blown up.

Above the sky, the sun was bright and clear, without a single dark cloud in sight, but there were rumbling thunders surging like tides, shaking the entire mountain range.

Such a big commotion naturally alarmed the people at Xuanzhen Temple.

Countless disciples and pilgrims of Xuanzhen Temple looked around until they saw that the noise came from the solitary peak, and then they dispersed.

No matter how big the noise made by the master of Xuanzhen Temple is, it is normal.

After a full quarter of an hour, Chu Zhou finally stopped. The ripples on the top of the mountain gradually dissipated, leaving him standing there, looking at his hands in amazement.

Do you want to ask him how he felt before and after the breakthrough?

Chu Zhou could only say that it felt like he had crossed species. If he was just a human being before, no matter how strong he became, he was still a human being, and that was his limit.

But now, he has turned into a bear!

No matter how weak he is, a random slap is a force that no human can reach.

Even so, he can only be considered as in his ‘infancy’ now. After undergoing marrow cleansing and blood transfusion, he will have crossed the limit and will naturally usher in a new round of rapid growth.

Amazingly, this is only the first marrow washing and blood transfusion!

Later, it can be done up to five to eight times. It is hard to say how strong a human body can be by breaking the limit again and again.

Of course, you think that’s the end?

On the solitary peak, Chu Zhou closed his eyes slightly, and after a moment, blood light emanated from his body.

The powerful force, wrapped in qi and blood, rushed up into the sky like a hurricane, illuminating half the sky red, as gorgeous as the sunset.

This is the supernatural power of the body awakened after the first marrow cleansing and blood transfusion. To put it simply, it is the release of qi and blood that is strong to a certain degree, turning into a wolf smoke and rising into the sky.

This is the smoke screen of qi and blood!

This kind of magical power of the physical body is considered a rare magical power for warriors. It can strengthen oneself, stimulate fighting spirit, weaken the effects of spells, and even cause great harm to ghosts.

Prior to this, warriors’ methods had little or no effect on ghosts, until the appearance of the magical power of ‘Qi Blood Wolf Smoke’, which was comparable to direct sunlight and had enormous killing power.

Chu Zhou did not expect that his meticulously practiced magic only gave him a small magical power of “one yuan heavy water”, while his physical body was one step ahead.

However, his good mood disappeared after he opened his eyes, because after the martial arts training just now, the entire top of the solitary peak had become a ruin.

Two acres of messy fields, bare trees, a recliner that had long since flown away, and the courtyard house at the back that had lost its roof!
It’s true, life is full of surprises!
……

Thanks to the walnut boat, the renovation was much easier. After all, transporting building materials up and down was the biggest problem.

Chu Zhou asked Fan Zhong to arrange a lot of craftsmen to speed up the process as much as possible, while he himself could only return to the mortal world and live in Xuanzhen Temple for a while.

Then, news came one after another that the large-scale construction of Tianquan County had not stopped, but the new household registration system still screened out many outsiders.

They spoke with all kinds of accents, their passes were all strange and some even tried to get away with it.

However, the gap between warriors and ordinary people is as dazzling as a firefly flying in the dark night, and it was naturally discovered.

However, finding it doesn’t mean it can be dealt with!

Even if they are there to guard the sect, they cannot expel or kill people for a disagreement!
And there are more and more such gatherings of warriors.

Xuanzhen Temple naturally also had its own response, and almost all the sects in Tianquan County were on high alert.

The battle outside Yanshui City hadn’t been over for long, and they hadn’t completely let down their original vigilance, so they were able to adapt to it after it was heightened again.

On the Xuanzhen Temple side, they selected the disciples with the best performance as leaders, and then formed twelve teams with the inner disciples as the backbone.

Wherever there is a problem, just go there directly.

Then, it turns out that what is coming will eventually come back.

Just when these twelve teams were formed, news came that the sliding door had been robbed.

　Today’s update is here…
