People are in Xianwu, there are small games

Chapter 223 Doubts about martial arts and the road to the second rank!

"Tamp?"

At first, Xie Haodong thought that this ramming sword was such a magical sword technique.

But he quickly reacted...

"Tamp!?"

Then I heard Lu Ming laugh loudly.

"Just ramming..."

Those who ram are vigorous.

To put it bluntly, the sword that just defeated Xie Haodong was nothing more than mobilizing the blood energy and the power of the inner world, and then using his fingers as a sword to strike out...

It was such a simple and crude sword, but it broke through the power of Jie Haodong's martial seal, and even cut a gap with his two swords!

Xie Haodong fell into complete silence.

After a long time, he spoke hoarsely.

"If I am not blind, the prince is not at the second level at this moment, but only at the third level..."

Lu Ming nodded lightly: "It is indeed only the third grade."

"But your third grade..."

Xie Haodong wants to say that your third-level blood energy and inner power of heaven and earth seem to be stronger than his second-level one!
Because the Wuyin is not condensed, the quality is slightly lacking, but the quantity is much higher.

Under violent destruction, he defeated the second grade with his third grade body and one sword!
If he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, it would be difficult for Xie Haodong to imagine that a third-level warrior could have such power!
Lu Ming stopped responding.

Just look within yourself.

You can see that compared to half a year ago, your inner world has expanded more than ten times!
——This is the change brought about by the long-term retreat in the Beast Mountain Realm!
Moreover, the physical strength reward for playing the fifth level of the mini-game continuously made Lu Ming's golden body far better than the normal third-grade.

The stronger the golden body is, the more power of the inner world it can contain, and the stronger the warrior is!

With the mini-game system in hand, Lu Ming didn't have any differences, the only difference was time.

For the past six months, Lu Ming has been practicing hard in seclusion. To this day, even if he does not use any sword skills, the strength of his golden body, the richness of his blood, and the strength of his inner world are enough to compete with the second-grade An Zai Guobu at that time. The situation is the same - and this is when An Zaiguo uses the power of martial seal.

And this Xie Haodong seems to be slightly weaker than An Zaiguo.

'But the status is higher. '

Thinking like this, Lu Ming took the initiative and smiled.

“Dignified guests come to our door, let’s talk first, then drink!”

"His Majesty has already prepared a banquet in the palace. Why don't the two of us go and have a meal, so that we can listen to Mr. Xie talk about the martial arts of the Kingdom of Wu."

Xie Haodong nodded immediately: "It's all right."

Young talents, no, not young talents, but young and powerful men of the same level...

How can such a person not make friends?How can you not give face to such a person?

……

In the palace, fine wine and delicious food were served.

Except for Shi Yinyin, the remaining four people were all chatting and laughing without any signs of conflicts of interest or contradiction.

Even though this scene has been seen many times, Shi Yinyin still lamented that in this world, strength is the most important thing.

As long as you have enough strength, everything is easy to discuss...

The state of Zhou is not big.

One second-grade person is enough to control the situation.

If the Zhou Kingdom is forcibly annexed, it will easily cause dissatisfaction among the second-level Zhou Kingdom Zhenguo. And a strong second-level man without any restraints who only wants to cause destruction will cause even the Wu Kingdom a headache.

In addition, the Dragon Qi of the Zhou Kingdom is no longer the same as the wilderness. Even if everyone practices the Blood Evil Star Art and is a good source of soldiers, it is really not a wise move to offend such a young and powerful man for these benefits.

Thinking of this, Shi Yinyin immediately raised her glass.

"I have heard about King Xiaoyao for a long time, and I also heard that King Xiaoyao is slightly younger than the little girl. Before, the little girl still had the desire to win, but today when she saw her, she realized that the prince is actually a dragon or a phoenix among men. I would like to propose a toast!"

After saying this, he drank it all in one gulp, showing off the heroic spirit of a woman in the world.

Lu Ming also raised his glass seriously in response.

After finishing the drink, he smiled and said, "I have heard for a long time that martial arts in the Wu Kingdom are prosperous. Now that I have met Miss Shi, I know that the most powerful people in the world have no calculations."

"With Miss Shi's age, I think she can be ranked high among the younger generation in the martial arts world of Wu Kingdom, right?"

Before Shi Yinyin could say anything, Shi Yuqing on the side had already laughed and said: "Young friend Lu, you can really defeat my daughter... Although my martial arts qualifications are excellent, my martial arts qualifications are still not as good as those of the top young talents in Wu Kingdom."

Xie Haodong echoed: "The younger generation of Wu Kingdom, that is, those under the age of 25, are nearly ten in the third grade and one in the second grade. Miss Shi can also be among the top twenty."

The ranking in the top twenty is not low.

After all, the Wu Kingdom in the Northwest Territory dominates, and ranking among the top [-] in the country is basically equivalent to ranking among the top [-] in the entire Northwest Territory.

Sure enough, after Xie Haodong said these words, a look of pride flashed across Shi Yinyin's face, but she quickly calmed down.

She raised her glass to Lu Ming again and said with a smile: "Gang Leader Lu is a really strange person... If Gang Leader Lu breaks into the Wu Kingdom, the little overlord of the Sihai Gang will not be able to match the power of Gang Leader Lu."

Lu Ming raised his eyebrows: "The little bully of the Sihai Gang?"

Xie Haodong: "This person is the only second-level among the young generation of our Wu Kingdom, and he is also the young leader of the Sihai Gang."

Shi Yuqing played with the white jade cup in his hand and pointedly said: "Speaking of which, the Sihai Gang is a big thorn in the side and a big trouble..."

The Four Seas Gang.

The martial arts sect of the Wu Kingdom ranks among the top ranks. The sect leader is at the first level and has been granted the title of King of the Four Seas. His fiefdom is vaster than even Prince Qing's.

For the Zhou State, the Sihai Gang was undoubtedly a behemoth.

"And I heard something. It is said that the Sihai Gang and the Lu Gang leader have a grudge..."

Shi Yuqing said this with a smile, which made Lu Ming stunned.

"What grudges can I have against the Sihai Gang?"

Shi Yuqing spit out four words: "The Eight Evils of the Wu Kingdom."

"These eight people are the white gloves of the Sihai Gang, specializing in handling some shady business. It is said that all the eight murderers of the Wu Kingdom were buried in the hands of Gang Leader Lu..."

At this point, Shi Yuqing said no more.

But Lu Ming laughed loudly: "I have also heard that the King of the Four Seas has great talents and great strategies. The Eight Evils of the Wu Kingdom caused trouble first, and being killed by a certain family is self-inflicted. What's more, there are many hidden things inside. If the King of the Four Seas is because of this, If you come to cause trouble for a certain family, then that family will follow suit!"

The words are full of pride and pride.

Shi Yuqing immediately laughed loudly: "What Gang Leader Lu said is not wrong. Li Sihai said nothing else, but the truth is true."

"But, this is always a hidden danger. What's more, I'm afraid it won't be long before Zhou Guoke will have to be neighbors with Li Sihai and his Sihai Gang... By then, the Eight Evils of Wu Kingdom may become the trigger..."

After saying that, he raised his glass and smiled: "If you can't stand it, you two can come to me."

Shi Yuqing drank the wine in his glass and saw Zhou Xinglin and Lu Ming both looking at him thoughtfully.

……

The State of Zhou borders the State of Wu, and the border is the fiefdom of Prince Qing.

The Liang Kingdom borders the fiefdoms of the Four Sea Kings.

In the previous chaos, the state of Zhou was miserable, and the state of Liang was even worse...

It's so miserable...

Most of the Liang people were sacrificed in blood, and the remaining people moved into the Zhou Kingdom and took root in the Zhou Kingdom.

So the current situation in Liang Country is: no one.

Naturally, no one can gather dragon energy, and the country will be completely destroyed.

The entire Liang Kingdom was desolate and turned into a paradise for evil spirits.

Originally, the King of the Four Seas looked down upon Liang Country, a remote place like this.

But now there is no one in this land, don't do it for nothing... and there is no dragon aura and evil aura. Under the premise that the Blood Evil Star Art has been widely spread, a strong evil aura naturally has the benefits of a strong evil aura.

What's more, Liang Country is mountainous and rich in mineral resources, and there is always value that can be exploited.

In short, now that the Liang Kingdom no longer exists, and the Four Seas King has indeed made some changes in the Liang Kingdom, what Prince Qing said, "The Zhou Kingdom may become neighbors with the Four Seas King" is not impossible.

Zhou Xinglin suddenly smiled: "That will happen in a few years...and who can say for sure what will happen in a few years?"

As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Shi Yuqing laughed and ignored such inappropriate topics.

Then play music and dance.

Wine over three rounds of dishes over five flavors.

Under the deliberate guidance of Lu Ming and Zhou Xinglin, the topic smoothly changed from state affairs to military affairs.

Maybe he was enjoying himself while drinking, or maybe Xie Haodong felt that such things were not that important and were common sense, so he mentioned the second-level and first-level martial arts ideas.

He said: "The second-grade condensed martial seal uses the power of the martial seal to suppress the inner heaven and earth, turning the inner heaven and earth from virtual to real, and turning false into true."

Lu Ming also knew this logic.

The world within the third level is illusory and chaotic, but the world within the second level is almost solid.

This is a qualitative difference that makes the physique, blood, and inner strength of the second-grade warrior far stronger than that of the third-grade warrior.

——Lu Ming is not included.

"And the road from the second level to the first level is to fuse the inner heaven and earth with the golden body, so that heaven and man become one, achieve Tianyuan, and create the heaven and earth dharma body!"

Heaven, the heaven within the heaven and earth.

People, warrior people.

When the inner heaven, earth and human beings merge into one, the Tianyuan realm is achieved.

The logic is this, and the details are the secrets of each sect.

But the general idea is there.

"Use 72 acupoints inside and outside the golden body to decompose and accommodate the inner heaven and earth. In this way, the Tianyuan realm is completed."

After Xie Haodong finished speaking, Lu Ming immediately fell into deep thought.

Xie Haodong only thought that Lu Ming had some feelings and realizations.

Little did he know that this was not what Lu Ming was thinking.

After a long time, Lu Ming suddenly spoke.

"But I wonder if Mr. Xie has ever heard of the road to excellence?"

This sentence made Xie Haodong stunned, then shook his head and smiled.

"I've heard it before. Who among the first-grade warriors doesn't want to go one step further? Therefore, the saying of super-grade warriors has been around for a long time."

"But in fact, after so many years, there is a consensus in martial arts - the first level is the limit of a warrior, and the road to super level does not exist..."

Even with extreme strength, it is difficult to open a super-grade path, so it is not surprising that Xie Haodong came to this conclusion.

Lu Ming asked again: "Why doesn't the road to super quality exist?"

Xie Haodong was stunned again, thought for a moment, and replied: "Because after a warrior reaches the first level, the 72 orifices of the golden body have been filled with fragments of the inner world. After achieving the first level, the strength of the heaven and earth body has been constant. If you are strong, you will only be this strong in this life. If you want to improve, you can only work on your fighting skills."

"But this is only an improvement in combat power, not an essential improvement in martial arts."

There was a detail in these words that Lu Ming didn't know, which also caused Lu Ming to frown.

"How strong you are when you first enter the first level, will you only be this strong in the future?"

Xie Haodong nodded: "That's right."

"The strength of the first-grade heaven and earth magic body is constant!?"

"Yes, when hitting the first level, the inner world and the earth merge into the 72 acupoints. Therefore, the stronger the warrior is at the peak of the second level, the stronger he will be after entering the first level."

"This is Tianyuan Wugui!"

Once you step out, there is no way back.

Lu Ming fell into a long silence.

When the banquet was almost over, Lu Ming suddenly spoke.

"Could it be that the road from second grade to first grade is on the wrong path?"

Xie Haodong was immediately speechless.

"This has been going on for so many years. Some people do suspect that the road from second grade to first grade has gone astray, but suspicion is suspicion. At least you have to come up with a solution, right?"

"There is no solution, so what's the use of just questioning? If you want to go further, don't you have to follow the current common first-level path?"

At this point, Xie Haodong said drunkenly: "Brother, don't be too ambitious. A first-grade warrior is a figure everywhere. This kind of strength is really enough."

Xie Haodong said it rather euphemistically...

As a third-level warrior, even if he is a bit special, it would be a bit arrogant to question the existing martial arts system.Don’t you see that the wrong path you mentioned has blocked thousands of second-grade warriors?
Nowadays, there are only a handful of first-class ones in the Northwest Territory.

Although the martial arts path has limitations, the first level is equivalent to Nascent Soul, which is not low.

"It's too early for us to think about these things. Those are things that only first-class warriors should think about."

When these words came out, Lu Ming also laughed them off.

"Indeed."

……

After the banquet, return to the main hall of the Sanxiang Gang.

In the former Wenxian Tower, now Lu Ming's private training room, Lu Ming fell into deep thought.

During the banquet, Lu Ming was so excited that he made some gaffes and accidentally spoke the truth.

That is to say: Could it be that the road from second grade to first grade is on the wrong path?
This sentence was by no means Lu Mingwu’s intention.

First of all, it is absolutely impossible for a correct path of cultivation to end at the first level!

Although Xie Haodong said that the first level is equivalent to Nascent Soul, such strength is not low... but compared to the immortal way, the upper limit of martial arts is still a bit lower.

Second come...

Open the mini game system and look at the property panel.

A series of words fell into Lu Ming's eyes.

[Name: Lu Ming. 】

[Cultivation: Third-grade golden body. 】

[Life value: 135800. 】

[Talent ability: 3/3]

[[-]: Alaya Bunkaka (Ungraded) (Four Stars)]

[[-]: Hidden Swordsmanship (No Grade) (Five Stars)]

[[-]: The Invisible Sword of the Supreme Sword Code (No Grade) (Four Stars)]

[Skill: 14/14]

[Kung Fu [-]: Three Phase Demon Transformation Kung Fu (Third Grade Martial Arts) (Four Stars)]

[Skill [-]: Invisible Sword Domain (No Grade) (Five Stars)]

Exercises [-] to [-] are all Lu Ming's own exercises, each with its own magic and magical effects - if you choose a sword from among them, killing Jie Haodong will be like killing a chicken.

The key is not this, the key is...

Looking at the left half of the board, the four big characters "Start Game" were dim at this moment, proving that Lu Ming did not have a game count.

But under [Start Game], there are three words.

【Level [-]】

Yes.

The current progress of the mini-game is stuck at the seventh level, not the original sixth level.

The sixth level has been passed!
The clearance time was even three months ago!

The golden reward for the sixth level is virtual world points.

The reward for passing the level is an elixir called Dragon Tiger Body Tempering Pill - this elixir can increase the strength of a third-grade warrior's golden body. The effect is equivalent to strengthening the body more than ten times, and it does not contain erysipelas.

But this reward was of little use to Lu Ming.

After all, he has a strong body.

And the most important thing is the first pass reward for the sixth level!
With a thought, Lu Ming's consciousness drifted and he appeared in the void space.

Ahead, four giant books shine brightly.

It’s the Hidden Sword Technique, the Invisible Sword Realm, the Invisible Sword Chapter of the Supreme Sword Manual, and the Three Phase Demon Transformation Technique!
Looking at the three-phase demon-turning skill, he saw the pages of the giant book turning automatically.

The third grade passed quickly, and soon, we came to the last page of the middle volume.

Lu Ming's thoughts started to move again.

Turning the page again, new content appeared in front of Lu Ming.

Second grade true power.

Even a first-grade true skill!
The three-phase demon-turning skill has been completed!
That's right, the first pass reward for the sixth level is the second part of the three-phase demon-turning skill that Lu Ming has been dreaming about!

……

Looking at the huge book in front of him, Lu Ming fell into deep thought.

He didn't know the origin of the mini-game system, nor the origin of the three-phase magic transformation skill.

But the three-phase demon-turning skill is a magical skill, there is no doubt about it!
Compared with the martial arts training system circulated outside, Lu Ming believed more in the mini-game system and the three-phase demon-turning technique.

At this moment, the content of the second volume of the Three-Phase Demon Transformation Technique is different from the martial arts system circulated in the outside world...

This is also the fundamental reason why Lu Ming has not broken through to the second level.

Information that has been listened to countless times will automatically flow into the mind as soon as the thought occurs.

At the same time, the huge true intention of martial arts spreads across the world, and the three demon statues are ferocious and terrifying, overwhelming the galaxy and shaking the world!

[Condensing the double-headed Pluto phase...]

As this piece of information flowed into Lu Ming's mind, the middle and left skulls of the three demon statues in his true mind shone brightly, transforming into Lu Ming's appearance.

[Using the core of the world as the nutrient, the Pluto Martial Seal is cast, and the real world as the base, the second-grade inner world is created. 】

This is where things went wrong...

The second-grade path of the three-phase demon-turning technique is different from the second-grade martial arts path passed down in this world.

In the martial arts of this world, as long as the will is strong enough and the skills are up to standard, the inner heaven and earth will automatically condense the martial seal. What kind of world core is needed for nourishment?

When the martial seal suppresses the inner world and automatically turns into reality, why does it need to be based on the real world?

Just like the current Lu Ming, if he wants to achieve the second level of martial arts in this world, it is just a matter of a thought - his mind, his body, the size and strength of his inner world have already reached the standard, and the third level has already reached the standard. The second chapter of the phase-turning magic skill is also available, and all the conditions are met...

But the system said that you were wrong, so there must be something wrong, so Lu Ming did not choose.

The thought comes up again, the page turns over again.

The first level of the three-phase demon-turning skill appeared before Lu Ming's eyes.

In front of them, the three demon statues were even more powerful.

The 72 orifices are like dots of stars, adorning the Dharmakaya!

If you look carefully, you can see that the 72 orifices are different, but they are all as majestic and majestic as the real world. There is no shortage of bright sun and bright moon. You can even vaguely see the creatures walking inside, and everything is full of vitality!
[One aperture, one world, Dharmakaya controls the galaxy! 】

Before reaching the second level, Lu Ming could not understand the logic of the first level path in detail, but the words "One Aperture, One World" were obviously not difficult to understand.

The path to the first level of martial arts in this world is to collapse the inner world and make the inner world merge into the 72 orifices and the golden body. The unity of heaven and man creates the body of heaven and earth, and realizes the origin of heaven!
But the logic given by the three-phase demon-turning skill is not like this.

The first level of the three-phase demon-turning skill does not collapse the inner heaven and earth, but instead accommodates an inner heaven and earth in one acupoint. You can imagine how strong the Dharma body will be if you achieve it in this way.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Ming suddenly sighed.

"It's not that the path of martial arts in this world has gone astray, it's just that the martial arts in this world are the monkey version, forced to perform self-castration..."

The most obvious point.

The second level needs to use the core of the world as its nourishment and the world of the real world as its foundation...

Where can the warriors of this world find the core of the world? ?

The thought came again, and Lu Ming left the space of consciousness.

Opening the mini-game system, looking at the words [Virtual Realm Points: 18536], I couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"Go to the Beast Mountain Realm to take another look..."

……

In a flash of consciousness, Lu Ming had arrived at the Beast Mountain Realm.

But this time he only redeemed it for one day.

As soon as I entered the realm, I felt a sense of suffocation coming...

It was as if he had sunk to the bottom of the water. The strong water pressure prevented Lu Ming from having difficulty breathing and putting his life in danger, but he was still very uncomfortable.

Open your eyes and look far away.

Then we saw that the Beast Mountain World was still as big as before... but the entire Beast Mountain World was groggy, as if it had lost its vitality.

This is the impact caused by the loss of the power of heaven and earth.

As of today, Lu Ming has absorbed 40.00% of the power of heaven and earth in the Beast Mountain Realm... However, the progress is stuck here and he cannot move at all!

Before Lu Ming could think about anything more.

Suddenly, a shocking roar sounded from afar.

Then he saw in the distance, a huge mountain ghost nearly [-] meters high, holding a black mace, rushing toward Lu Ming!

Lu Ming shrugged helplessly...

Then he turned around and ran away!

……

The aura on this mountain ghost is of the third grade.

With Lu Ming's ability to suppress ghosts, killing them was easy and straightforward.

But in fact, this thing cannot be killed...

Lu Ming muttered as he quickly distanced himself from the mountain ghost.

"If we kill this thing, I'm afraid the next one that appears will be a second-grade one..."

Warriors conquer the sky.

Heaven and earth.

Such banditry will inevitably lead to backlash from heaven and earth.

In the main world, due to the large scale of the main world, it does not care much about the consumption of the power of heaven and earth, so it only limits the lifespan of the warrior. Moreover, after the death of the warrior, the power of the inner heaven and earth will collapse and return to the heaven and earth, giving back to the world, so the world will bite back. Not too strong...

But this beast mountain world is different.

The world of Beast Mountain is too small.

The power of heaven and earth is not much.

After Lu Ming took away a part of it, the whole world became less smooth...

——To put it bluntly, the sizes of the worlds are different. The main world has raised so many warriors, and the power of heaven and earth has not been lost much. However, in the Beast Mountain World, Lu Ming alone has almost sucked the Beast Mountain World empty.

Maybe the world also has instincts.

When Lu Ming absorbed the power of heaven and earth to a certain extent, the Beast Mountain Realm began to target Lu Ming.

That feeling of discomfort probably appeared when Lu Ming sucked away 10% of the power of heaven and earth.

After reaching 20%, the world began to increase the strength of one or more mountain ghosts - Lu Ming did not realize this at the time, and killed several half-step third-level ghosts with one sword.

Then, another third-grade ghost appeared...

Under normal logic, it is impossible for a ghost to achieve level three.

But with the help of the world, the selected mountain ghost becomes the son of the world, and naturally has the ability to make the impossible possible!
After realizing this, Lu Ming decisively stopped killing the mountain ghost and instead walked around it - because Lu Ming somehow sensed that creating such a mountain ghost would cause a lot of damage to the beast mountain world. A lose-lose move.

The Beast Mountain Realm wants to die together with Lu Ming, a super thief, and explode together, but Lu Ming, who has long regarded the Beast Mountain Realm as his private property, how can he just sit idly by and ignore it?

While walking around the Mountain Ghost King, Lu Ming continued to devour the power of heaven and earth in the Beast Mountain Realm.

And when the progress reached 49%, it got stuck...

the reason is simple.

"If you haven't taken the world core, you can't replace heaven!"

He looked around vaguely.

"The core of the world, the core of the world, is the embodiment of the will of heaven and earth."

At this point, Lu Ming suddenly smiled bitterly and scratched his head.

"But the problem is, the world core is so well hidden that I can't find it..."

If you can't find the world core, you can't completely swallow this world. Without the world core, you can't achieve the second level.

Therefore, the question before Lu Ming became: how to find the core of the Beast Mountain Realm...

(End of this chapter)
