NOVEL NEXT Chapter 21 Internal Strength
In the next three days, apart from going to the kitchen to get food and visiting the old scholar, Chen Yuan spent the rest of his time in the small courtyard practicing martial arts, transforming all the Fuhu Jin Qi in his body into Liuyang Gong Qi.
Liuyang Gong is a first-class martial arts method that can directly reach the state of transformation. The Qi is also extremely magical, extremely yang and extremely strong.
If Chen Yuan uses all his strength to activate Liuyang Gong, a palm strike can leave a charred palm print on the clothes. When it hits the body surface, it is like being burned by fire. It will definitely have a miraculous effect when it is unexpected.
This is only the marrow refining realm. According to the secret book, after the breakthrough, every move will be accompanied by internal energy, as hot as fire, and there will be few rivals among the same level warriors.
Chen Yuan was jealous of this. After regulating his breath for a night, he boiled and took the 100-year-old mountain ginseng, using the power of the medicine to impact the internal energy.
He stayed at the peak of marrow refining for more than half a year, and his accumulation was profound. His physical body was far superior to that of ordinary warriors. With the help of the medicinal power of 100-year-old mountain ginseng, he broke through the bottleneck of internal strength.
Chen Yuan felt the true energy in his dantian, which was more than twice as strong as before. Suddenly, he hit the old locust tree with a palm, and the leaves fell down one after another.
He stretched out his right hand, took the ring-headed sword from the weapon rack, and practiced sword in the endless fallen leaves.
Wherever the blade passed, the internal strength was connected, and the fallen leaves spontaneously ignited without fire, turning into fire butterflies, blooming with red light.
After a set of Five Tigers Breaking the Gate Sword Technique was used, a circle of ashes piled up under Chen Yuan's feet, as high as an inch, and the autumn wind blew and scattered with the wind.
Chen Yuan put away the sword and stood, looking inside himself, his dantian was empty, and the true energy was gone.
The true energy turned into internal strength, and then penetrated the body and came out, which consumed a lot.
Only by accumulating more true energy can you use internal strength at will.
Chen Yuan put the ring-handled sword back on the weapon rack, went back to the house and took out the jade pendant and the Peiyuan Pill.
For the past three days, he had been infusing his body with starlight every night, and then taking two Peiyuan Pills, which was enough to replenish the energy gap. There was still a small amount of medicinal power left, enough for martial arts training the next day.
Chen Yuan took the jade pendant out of the coarse cloth bag. The jade pendant emitted a faint green light, and the stars in the sky flashed for a moment, converging into a thin beam of white light, falling from the sky, covering Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan closed his eyes slightly, feeling the clear and numb feeling on his body, and silently counted the time.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths... ten breaths, eleven breaths, twelve breaths... twenty breaths!
The white light dissipated, and Chen Yuan suddenly opened his eyes and looked down at the jade pendant in his hand.
This time, the starlight infusion lasted for twenty breaths, twice as long as before!
But the jade was not abnormal. The green light disappeared and it returned to its crystal clear appearance. Under the shining of the Milky Way, it flickered with a faint light.
Then, a feeling of hunger far stronger than before surged up from Chen Yuan's heart.
He quickly poured out a Peiyuan Pill and swallowed it.
The medicinal power quickly turned into a hot stream and flowed into his limbs and bones.
But this medicinal power only eliminated a small part of the feeling of hunger, and it was difficult to continue. Chen Yuan poured out the second Peiyuan Pill and swallowed it.
The feeling of hunger dissipated by half, but it still did not disappear completely.
Chen Yuan swallowed the third Peiyuan Pill, and the feeling of hunger finally disappeared completely, but there was no trace of the medicinal power left.
He looked at the only Peiyuan Pill left in the jade bottle and shook his head helplessly.
It is of course a good thing to extend the time of starlight infusion, but the energy that needs to be replenished has also become more. Peiyuan Pills that can make the blood and qi of the marrow refining warrior active for seven days have to be consumed three at a time. It is really a gold-eating beast.
But feeling the obvious increase in strength, Chen Yuan couldn't help but smile.
This huge strength is his biggest trump card. No matter how many pills he consumes, he will speed up the speed of starlight infusion.
In addition to the increase in strength, Chen Yuan's physical strength continues to increase, his flexibility, agility, speed, and five senses continue to improve, and even his thoughts have become clearer and smarter, with countless benefits.
Chen Yuan stroked the warm jade in his hand and murmured:
"What kind of treasure are you that can be so effective?"
...
The next day, Chen Yuan practiced the Six Yang Palm again and found that the speed of the increase in true energy was even faster than yesterday.
Yesterday he was only in the marrow refining realm, and there was still the residual medicinal power of the Peiyuan Pill in his body, and his blood was active. Today he has broken through to the internal strength, and without the help of the medicinal power, it has become easier to accumulate true energy.
I didn't expect that after only experiencing a twenty-breath starlight infusion, the effect would be so obvious.
Chen Yuan was in a good mood and practiced the Six Yang Palm a few points faster.
Knock knock knock! Knock, knock, knock!
Suddenly there was a rapid knock on the door. Chen Yuan frowned, slowly finished his exercise, and opened the door.
A horse face came into view. Chen Yuan's eyes flashed and he smiled:
"Brother Hu, how come you have time to come to me? Come in."
Brother Hu waved his hand and smiled:
"Let's talk about it next time. Master has something to ask you. Brother Chen, please come with me."
Chen Yuan was surprised:
"Okay, I've been feeling uncomfortable at home these days. Does the shopkeeper want to assign me any tasks?"
Brother Hu was stunned and shook his head:
"That's not the case. Someone from the general gang of the county city came to see you and Brother Zhao. It should be related to the caravan."
Chen Yuan said disappointedly:
"Oh... Brother, wait a moment. I was practicing Fu Hu Quan just now. I was sweating. I'll change my clothes and go right away."
Afterwards, Chen Yuan changed into a yellow cloth short coat, put on a wooden waist badge, and followed Brother Hu to the Sun Mansion.
The doorman understood the order and did not stop them, so the two of them went through smoothly all the way to the main hall.
Chen Yuan glanced around and found that Zhao Shan had arrived. Shopkeeper Sun was still sitting in the main seat. The Taishi chair under him had been replaced with a new one. Next to him, a young warrior sat.
This man is about twenty-five or six years old, not much older than Zhao Shan. He is dressed in black and has a handsome face. He is listening attentively to Zhao Shan's story.
"...Master took the initiative to stay behind, and Junior Brother Chen and I trekked in the Chimang Mountains for three days and three nights before escaping. When we returned to the county, we immediately reported the news of the murders and looting in Heifeng Village. Shopkeeper Sun..."
After Zhao Shan finished speaking, the young warrior nodded slightly, turned to look at Chen Yuan, looked up and down, and said with a smile:
"Are you Chen Erniu?"
Before Chen Yuan could speak, shopkeeper Sun interjected:
"Er Niu, this is Deacon Wei Wuding from the main hall. Just answer whatever you ask me. You must not hide anything."
Chen Yuan hurriedly cupped his fists and saluted:
"Chen Erniu has met Deacon Wei!"
Wei Wuding waved his hand and said:
"No need to be polite. I came to Leping County this time to tell you about the murder and robbery in Heifeng Village in detail."
"Yes, I followed the convoy into the mountains..."
Chen Yuan recounted in detail the entire process from when the convoy entered the mountain to when he and Zhao Shan escaped.
Wei Wuding nodded thoughtfully and said:
"It's exactly the same as what Zhao Shan said. I also know Li Yong. He is smart and capable. It is a pity that he suffered this time."
Chen Yuan and Zhao Shan both looked sad, and Wei Wuding said again:
"Let's do this. Tomorrow I will go into the mountains to clear out the Black Wind Village. You guys go with me and kill a few bandits. This can be regarded as avenging your master. Senior brother, what do you think?"
Shopkeeper Sun's eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure, but there was a smile on his face:
"Okay, as my junior brother said, Zhao Shan and Chen Erniu, when entering the mountain this time, you must obey Deacon Wei's instructions and not interfere with the suppression of bandits."
Chen Yuan and Zhao Shan looked at each other and responded in unison:
"yes!"
Wei Wuding smiled and said:
"Very good. You go back first and pack your luggage. This trip into the mountains will take a long time."
The two people clasped their fists in salute and left the main hall.
Shopkeeper Sun turned sideways and looked at Wei Wuding, stroking his beard and asked:
"How are junior brothers going to wipe out the bandits in Heifeng Village? The leader of Heifeng Village, Xie Quan, is said to be from the military. He has strong martial arts skills and strong methods. Unfortunately, Li Yong did not escape. He has dealt with Xie Quan the most and knows him well. The deepest, should be able to help.”
Wei Wuding said calmly:
"You don't have to worry about it, senior brother. I have my own plan."
Shopkeeper Sun looked angry when he heard this. He tightened his fingers and almost broke a beard.
Wei Wuding didn't seem to notice it and asked with a smile:
"Li Yong didn't come back this time. My wife and daughter are helpless. Are they having a hard time?"
Shopkeeper Sun’s expression changed slightly:
"Junior brother, what do you mean by this?"
Wei Wuding smiled and said:
"It's nothing. I have met Li Yong several times. How can I ignore him when his life or death is uncertain at this time?"
Shopkeeper Sun smiled softly and said:
"Junior Brother Wei really values love and righteousness. As a brother, I can't let you be so warm-hearted. But Mrs. Zhang came to me yesterday and was willing to donate her family's six-yang skill and five hundred taels of silver to let me take care of her. I have already agreed, so I won’t bother Junior Brother Wei to worry about it.”
Wei Wuding smiled and said:
"Five hundred taels? Then Li Yong's family is very rich, and he must have a lot of money left. I also want to take care of his wife and daughter. What do you think, senior brother?"
Shopkeeper Sun's smile disappeared, he stared into Wei Wuding's eyes and said:
"I'm afraid this won't be easy to handle. Li Yong has been following my brother for many years, and he still has two bone-refining disciples left behind. The disciples help with small things, and brother takes care of big things. There is no need for junior brother to take care of me. For the sake of brother Yi, let's forget it. "
Wei Wuding chuckled and said:
"Senior brother, what you said is wrong. Although I am far away from the county, I have been in the main hall for many years. I still have a wider network and better information. Maybe I can be of some help. Well, I will go and talk to Mrs. Zhang in person tomorrow. , and see what she thinks.”
With that said, he was about to get up and leave.
Shopkeeper Sun stared at Wei Wuding for a long time before slowly speaking:
"Junior brother attaches great importance to love and righteousness, and I am deeply moved by him. However, Li Yong's life and death are uncertain, and his family is grieving and sad, so it is better not to disturb him. Let's do this. Junior brother, make a copy of the Six Yang Gong. If anything happens in the future, please take care of him. My wife and daughter have done their best to help each other, how about that?”
Wei Wuding sat down again, cupped his fists and saluted:
"Thank you, senior brother, for helping me!"
