casket of old days

Chapter 222
Yong'an 16th year, May [-]th.

The head coach asked about the situation while looking at the rankings of the small competitions last month.

Li Jian, the lecturer of elixir, Yi Shuang, the lecturer of the sect, Song Ming, the lecturer of ghosts... reported the overall situation of the students one by one.

The chief instructor finally looked at Yang Ling and asked, "How is the student's martial arts practice recently?"

Coach Yang said: "Everything is not bad. Apart from Li He and Jiang Longyu, Chi Shude has also stepped into the fourth realm."

"They have been on the mountain for five months, and they have gradually stimulated their original potential."

"It is estimated that more and more students will enter the fourth realm in the future. I think there should be more than 20 students who will enter the fourth realm before the final selection."

The head coach nodded. The students they selected from all over the country were already geniuses, and most of them had entered the third level for a long time.

Now, with the infusion of various resources in Chaoyao Mountain, it is only natural for Wu Dao to step into the fourth realm one by one.

He said: "Martial arts is the foundation of the work of Zhenma Division. Yang Ling, you have done a good job in teaching students according to their aptitude recently."

He looked at Li He who ranked first in Wuyue Xiaochao, Jiang Longyu who ranked second, Chi Shude who ranked third, and Chu Qiguang who ranked fourth...

The chief coach asked: "How is Chu Qiguang?"

Coach Yang sighed, with a hint of regret on his face: "There's something wrong with Chu Qiguang."

The head coach frowned and said, "What's wrong?"

Coach Yang said helplessly: "In addition to Hunyuan Taiyi Qigong and Zhutianzhen Demon Palm, he also went to practice Star Shifting Phantom Body Technique and Flying Sky and Cloud Piercing Step."

"He also told me recently that he wanted to practice a weapon."

Hearing these words, the chief instructor said angrily: "Nonsense, what is he doing for a mere Three Realm martial artist practicing so many martial arts?"

He stared at Coach Yang and said, "Yang Ling, what are you doing? Now is the time for him to concentrate on his martial arts realm."

Yang Ling said: "Hey... I'm more concerned about Jiang Longyu and Chi Shude these days, and I'm relaxing on Chu Qiguang's side, but I've already told him not to focus too much on other martial arts Now, let’s improve the realm of martial arts.”

Hearing Jiang Longyu and Chi Shude, the head coach looked slightly relaxed, and said: "Take care of him, don't let him waste the resources given to him by Zhenmasi."

……

In the courtyard of the boulder that night.

As Chu Qiguang's Hunyuan Taiyi magic power of the third layer started to work, his body instantly turned gray...turned black...as if he had put on a layer of pitch-black iron armor, covering every part of his body. An inch of skin.

The next moment, the sound of splashing water continued to come from his body.

Chu Qiguang's qi and blood circulated like the Yangtze River.

Under the surging energy and blood power, the temperature of the entire Jushi courtyard rose sharply.

The weeds that were a little yellow due to Chu Qiguang's practice during this period of time also became more and more wilted.

The surging power in Chu Qiguang's body finally turned into the monstrous power of Zhutianzhen's magic palm, and it hit the huge gray granite in front of him like a mountain roar and a tsunami.

With the sudden force of the palm, layers of air flow swept over and turned into a layer of white qi.

After Chu Qiguang cultivated the Zhutianzhen Demon Palm to the third level, he was able to stimulate the energy when he finally released his palm. Although he was not as flexible as Qiao Zhi, it still made his Zhutian Zhen Demon Palm One more power has been enhanced.

Accompanied by the violent impact of Gang Qi, palm and limestone, muffled thunderous noises came from inside the boulder.

Amidst the light crackling sound, the surface of the boulder shattered into a large layer, turning into a large piece of rubble and falling directly to the ground.

Looking at the gray granite which was smaller again, Chu Qiguang exhaled lightly, calming down the blood that had been running violently just now.

Chu Qiguang looked at the fifth tentacles in his shadow, and the sixth tentacles that were gradually brewing in the shadow.

He murmured in his heart: "If you continue to practice like this, this limestone will not be able to withstand it anymore. You have to find some other cultivation tools."

Over the past few days, Chu Qiguang has been studying, reading, taking medicine, and practicing martial arts every day, and his strength has improved rapidly.

Although when he received the gift of the Ring of Fool several times in a row, Hunyuan Taiyi's magic skills were all gray and could not be improved.

But Chu Qiguang also raised Zhutianzhen Demon Palm to the third level.

The two martial arts, the star-moving phantom body technique and the flying cloud-piercing step, were also fused under the effect of the gift, and turned into the star-moving cloud-piercing step, which has both transformation and explosive power, and has also been promoted to the third level.

In addition to this, there is also Immortal Sealing Technique. Although it has been a long time since he was unable to use gifts to improve it, this martial art is particularly in line with his wishes. It makes him handy every time he practices it, and he has made the fastest progress. Now he has reached the third level.

And every time after accumulating a large number of Buddhist scriptures on the mountain, he went down the mountain to read the "Sumi Mountain King Sutra", which also repeatedly enhanced his physical strength, blood, and heat resistance.

This is also an important reason why his combat power can reach the fifth tentacle now, and the sixth tentacle is already faintly visible.

Chu Qiguang is very satisfied with his improvement in the past six months since he went up the mountain. Even if he doesn't rely on Qiao Zhi and the ring of ignorance, he can fight against Yisiman with his own martial arts, and even have the upper hand.

……

In the early morning on Chaoyao Mountain, Chu Qiguang came to Li Jian's small courtyard.

Because of the information about Li Jian he heard from Qiao Zhi, Chu Qiguang was deliberately getting close to Li Jian these days.

Besides, he had already taken over the shopping from Yang Ling, so he just took this opportunity to get close to him.

Through his contact, he found that Li Jian was a standard technical talent. Although he also had the ability to distinguish human feelings, he was often unwilling to think too much, and was absorbed in the knowledge of herbs, elixirs, and farming.

Because of this, his strength has not improved over the years, and he is too lazy to take care of the world, so he is gradually squeezed out by his colleagues.

But this kind of person Chu Qiguang has been in contact with a lot in his previous life. The other party is not cold-blooded or brainless, but just too lazy to spend more time on favors.

So he just took the initiative to help the other party a few times, and soon became friends with Li Jian.

Seeing the seeds sent by Chu Qiguang today, Li Jian immediately walked up with bright eyes: "Did you get it?"

Chu Qiguang nodded: "I asked someone to bring it from the capital, so I don't know if it is."

While looking at the seeds, Li Jian said, "I heard from friends in the capital that this rare rice is resistant to drought and cold, and it is much easier to grow than rice and wheat. The imperial court is planning to promote it."

What surprised Chu Qiguang during this time was that besides caring about medicinal materials and elixirs, Li Jian actually studied agriculture, even planted wheat himself, and even asked him to buy the seeds of Zhenmi.

Seeing Li Jian studying the seeds with a frantic expression, Chu Qiguang looked at the other party's workbench, on which all kinds of bottles and jars were neatly arranged.

During this period of time, Chu Qiguang talked with Li Jian based on the memory of his previous life, and he could barely recognize the nitrate, plant ash, gypsum powder and other things in it.

"This Li Jian can be regarded as a chemist of this era... what this guy is researching seems to be chemical fertilizers." '

Li Jian who was on the side suddenly said: "By the way, Chu Qiguang. During the meeting today, the head coach was very dissatisfied with your recent performance. If you want me to say yes... You shouldn't be greedy for practicing so many martial arts. Hurry up and put it away." Mind, improve the realm of martial arts more."

"Otherwise your ranking will go down in the future, maybe you will be kicked out of the inner court."
