I searched for corpses in the Wuding River to extract entries

Feng Yao was full of doubts at the moment. He swallowed his saliva:
"Elder, could this human immortal martial arts also be a method of tempering the body?"

Xie Que raised the corner of his mouth slightly and smiled faintly: "Yes, but also no."

He didn't say anything more because he wanted Feng Yao and Lu Chi to figure out for themselves what martial arts was.

There are some truths that can only be truly understood by experiencing them personally.

Having said this, Xie Que started to move again in the cave and began to demonstrate the method of opening up the acupoints with the essence of the Five Elements.

There are 360 ​​acupoints, each with a different correspondence.

The five elements are mutually generated and restrained, and the opening of the acupoints naturally has a correspondence and sequence.

Feng Yao and Lu Chi watched Xie Que's demonstration intently and were extremely focused.

Then they followed Xie Que's instructions and began to look inward at their bodies.

In their consciousness, a flashing ball of light appeared in their body.

Moreover, they have been able to use the colors of the acupoints to distinguish their corresponding five elements.

Xie Que looked at their reactions and knew that they had discovered something: "Use the five internal organs as a guide and absorb the essence of the five elements of heaven and earth."

"Piercing through the 360 ​​orifices, the body becomes like heaven and earth, and the qi and blood become like rivers."

“It is the foundation for becoming an immortal.”

Xie Que elaborated in detail the key to opening up the acupoints and the foundation of human immortal martial arts.

After hearing this, Feng Yao and Lu Chi sat cross-legged on the spot and started practicing the "Five Extremes Body Calming Exercise".

Their consciousness sank into their bodies, carefully drawing the power of the Five Elements.

As the power of the five elements circulated, faint starlight gradually appeared on their body surfaces.

At the same time, the faint light in the acupoints in their bodies gradually lit up.

Time passed by unknowingly, just one night.

Relying on his extraordinary talent, Feng Yao was able to fill up the twelve acupoints with the power of the five elements.

The progress of Lu Chi was a little slower, but he also filled up ten acupoints.

Xie Que quietly observed the two's cultivation process, feeling deeply moved: "It is worthy of being the Earthly Immortal Realm with abundant spiritual energy."

"With their talents, whether it's Taoism, body tempering or martial arts, they are all making rapid progress."

After all, when I was in the earthly immortal world, even if I had many opportunities and items, I couldn’t achieve this level.

However, Feng Yao and Lu Chi are able to practice under such excellent conditions, which is unimaginable for the warriors in the small world.

After the two of them had completed three great circulations, Xie Que felt a slight movement in his heart.

In the path of spiritual practice, haste makes waste.

In order to prevent the two from rushing and injuring themselves, Xie Que also said, "Stop."

Feng Yao and Lu Chi immediately stopped practicing their skills when they heard Xie Que's order.

They slowly opened their eyes, with a hint of unsatisfied look still in them.

Xie Que said, "Let's stop here today."

"The amount of Qi and blood that the meridians can bear has a limit. If you two continue to practice Qi today, I'm afraid you will hurt the meridians."

"Tomorrow, go to the martial arts arena and show them your strength!"

The two looked at each other excitedly and then said yes.

The next day, in the early morning light, in front of the martial arts arena.

Feng Yao and Lu Chi stepped into the martial arts arena together.

Feng Yao took the initiative to say: "Junior brother has made some progress recently, I hope you can give me some advice!"

His voice was loud and resonant, echoing throughout the martial arts arena.

When these words came out, the inner disciples around had different reactions.

Someone looked cautious, frowned slightly, and secretly pondered the strength of the two.
After all, the fact that Tieyan was defeated yesterday was still there, so they dared not underestimate the strength of the two.

After all, Tieyan is somewhat famous in the sect. The fact that Feng Yao and Lu Chi can defeat him shows that they are not ordinary people.

Some people sneered, with disdain on their faces, thinking that they were just ignorant young people.

At this moment, Tieyan was standing in a corner of the martial arts arena with a livid face.

Several friends patted him on the shoulders and stood up one after another: "How dare you act so arrogant in front of us? Today I will let you know how powerful I am!"

After saying that, several inner disciples came to the front of the stage and waited for Feng Yao and Lu Chi to come on stage.

The two looked at each other and each chose an opponent.

However, in a moment, the inner disciple who had just come on stage was thrown off the stage.

Everyone looked at this scene with surprise on their faces.

After all, many of those who were defeated just now were already senior body-tempering monks.

Among all the inner disciples, he is considered to be well-known.

Tieyan stood aside, watching his friends lose one after another. He then stood up again, his eyes revealing a fierce look:

"I just don't believe that you can always be so powerful!"

Tieyan jumped onto the stage, but within three blinks of an eye, he was knocked off the stage by Lu Chi's palm.

He staggered back, a look of horror on his face.

He didn't expect that Lu Chi's strength would improve so much in just one night.

This news spread quickly throughout the sect.

The disciples rushed to watch, wanting to see with their own eyes the strength of Feng Yao and Lu Chi.

When they saw the two's performance in the martial arts arena, they couldn't help but be amazed.

As the crowd gathered around, some powerful inner disciples could no longer hold back.

They all came down to compete with Feng Yao and Lu Chi.

Soon, under the challenge of a senior inner disciple, the two were finally defeated.

However, the two were not discouraged, but full of fighting spirit.

Before this, they had never thought that they could defeat so many senior brothers across levels.
Today can be considered a day of honor despite defeat!

……

When Xie Que was not teaching his disciples, he would dive into the sect's library whenever he had free time.

During this period, he read all the classics of Lieshan Sect carefully.

He kept sorting out the complicated theories of martial arts in his mind, and gradually realized the commonalities between these classics.

These seemingly different body-tempering techniques are surprisingly similar in some core concepts.

A bold idea also emerged in his mind.

He felt that he might be able to infer the essence of the "Eight-Nine Profound Art" from these body-tempering techniques.

Thanks to this, Xie Que also began his difficult deduction. He buried himself in a mountain of books every day, constantly analyzing, reasoning, and verifying.

During this research, he deduced a lot of content that was suspected to be the "Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts".

But in the process, he also encountered difficulties. The key points in these body-tempering methods were missing, just like the most important pieces of a puzzle were missing, making it impossible for him to complete it.

Xie Que also thought at this moment that if he wanted to complete these missing parts, he might need to combine it with the remaining chapters of the "Nine-Turn Golden Body Art" in the hands of Patriarch Lieshan.

Xie Que sighed helplessly.

However, the big competition is coming, and with Feng Yao and Lu Chi's strength, they can almost win.
As long as the two of them ranked similarly, he would be able to obtain the Nine-Transformation Golden Body Technique.

He was thinking silently in his mind, and decided to complete the task of teaching his disciples first.
Focus all your energy on Feng Yao and Lu Chi, and help them achieve excellent results in the competition.

He sorted out his thoughts, stood up and walked out of the library.

Time passed quietly, and there was only a month left before the competition.

The number of acupoints opened by the two of them is basically over two hundred.

Xie Que knew very well that this final critical period was crucial for Feng Yao and Lu Chi.

After all, there are many disciples in Lieshan Sect. The number of inner disciples at the level of Yangshen Zhenjun alone is no less than fifty.
Those they had defeated before were only some inner disciples of medium and low strength.

Compared to true geniuses, they still lack a lot.

After much thought, Xie Que decided to take the two of them to "train hard" for a while.

After finding a crater, Xie Que brought the two of them over.

Xie Que stood steadily on the edge of the crater, his figure appearing somewhat blurry under the blazing flames.

He looked at the two people in front of him expressionlessly: "You just sit in this boiling magma and practice the Five Extremes Body Calming Technique."

Feng Yao and Lu Chi looked at each other after hearing this, and saw a hint of hesitation in each other's eyes.

However, they did not hesitate too much, but stepped decisively into the rolling magma.

As soon as they came into contact with the lava, they felt an incomparable heat, as if their whole bodies were about to melt.

But they gritted their teeth, endured the severe pain, quickly sat cross-legged, and began to practice the "Five Extremes Body Calming Exercise".

As the technique was put into practice, the high temperature of the lava began to continuously erode their bodies, cutting their flesh and blood.

Every bit of pain felt like a needle prick, but they dared not relax at all. They kept their minds focused and guided the power of the Five Elements to circulate in their bodies.

Fire can produce earth, earth can produce metal, and this cycle can be repeated over and over again, and the fire power in the lava can be continuously absorbed into the body.

During this process, Feng Yao and Lu Chi's bodies were gradually surrounded by lava, their skin was burned red, and some parts had even begun to fester.

They did not stop and continued to hold on.

At this moment, Feng Yao suddenly felt a sharp pain coming from his meridians, and his face instantly turned pale as paper.

Due to excessive damage to his body, his meridians could no longer withstand the high temperature of the lava and began to show signs of burns.

Feng Yao's heart tightened. He knew that if he didn't make adjustments in time, the consequences would be disastrous.

But just as he was about to stop practicing the technique, Elder Shizun had already held him down: "Don't move."

In an instant, Xie Que used his own blood essence to rebuild some of Feng Yao's meridians without hesitation.

Feng Yao also turned a disaster into a blessing. The meridians that were recast with the essence of the sea of ​​blood became wider and tougher.

As time went by, Feng Yao and Lu Chi's practice in Liehuo Mountain became more and more in-depth, and the number of acupoints they condensed increased.

Under the high temperature of the lava, their bodies became tougher and tougher.

This change is not only reflected in physical strength, but also in the continuous improvement of their strength.

Time flies, passing by like a flash.

In the blink of an eye, the time for the big competition was approaching. The entire Lieshan Sect was enveloped in a tense and exciting atmosphere.

All the disciples were eager to try and were making final preparations for this grand event.

In the first round of the competition, the rules are to kill monsters and the results are calculated based on points.

This rule made all the disciples dare not take it lightly, because they knew very well that
This is not only a contest of strength, but also a contest of danger!
In this competition, only the strongest can stand out and gain more resources and glory.

After the competition started, at the sect's mountain gate,

The originally clear sky suddenly became gloomy, and suddenly a strange fog filled the sky.

As the evil fog spread, hundreds of "Sky-Splitting Demonic Wolves" with bone wings on their backs broke in.

These demon wolves were huge in size and had fierce eyes. Wherever they passed, the grass and trees withered and a disgusting stench filled the air.

Seeing this, many disciples took action one after another, trying to seize the initiative.

However, the outer sect disciples were limited in strength after all. Facing such a powerful demon wolf, they soon revealed their inability to cope with it.
Many people were defeated by the demon wolf in a short period of time.

Feng Yao and Lu Chi stood in the crowd, feeling somewhat uneasy.

After all, this was their first real encounter with a demon, and the training and battles they had experienced before were far from comparable.

However, they were not consumed by fear. Instead, they remembered the teachings of the Elder Buddha and integrated the power of the Five Elements into their own killing moves.

In this fierce battle, the strength displayed by the two was no less than that of any inner disciple.

Their bodies could withstand the demon's claws without getting hurt, and the wounds could heal quickly, which shocked everyone present.

After all, this level of recovery ability is not available through ordinary body tempering methods.

Some disciples have even begun to consider whether they should also seek out the Buddha Elder for some "special training".

After all, Feng Yao and Lu Chi were considered geniuses before, but they were not so abnormal.

They could all see that everything was due to the training of the Elder Buddha!

The leader of Lieshan Sect was also watching the battle. He nodded slightly and praised Xie Que for his good teaching: "Elder World Honored One, the disciples you teach are indeed extraordinary."

"After the competition, I will fulfill my promise to the remaining chapter."

Xie Que nodded, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Time flew by in the fierce battle.

Soon, Feng Yao and Lu Chi ranked into the top ten with their outstanding performance.

Their names shine on the leaderboard, second only to a few top inner disciples.

This achievement attracted the attention of the entire Lieshan Sect, and everyone had a new understanding of their strength.

As the competition progressed, the competition became more intense in the second round.

After layers of screening, only sixteen people in the sect were eligible to continue participating in the competition.

Every disciple who stayed behind was an elite within the sect and their strength should not be underestimated.

On the day of the competition, the martial arts arena was packed with people.

Feng Yao and Lu Chi won all the way in this round of competition.

Although Luchi is powerful, he lacks attacking means.

In the competition with opponents, we finally only got the top four.

Feng Yao, on the other hand, made it all the way to the finals with his outstanding strength and tenacious fighting spirit.

He and the inner sect's chief disciple met in the finals, and this duel became the focus of everyone's attention.

At this time, Feng Yao had condensed 359 acupoints.

This chief inner sect disciple was a body-tempering genius that appeared only once in a thousand years, and his talent was not inferior to the other two.
Therefore, Feng Yao could only lose and got second place.

However, the chief disciple is a thousand years older than Feng Yao.
This also makes Feng Yao and Lu Chi the most dazzling people in this competition. (End of this chapter)
