Cosmic Demon

Chapter 183: The things left by Qin Shuai are receiving the enlightenment of heavenly light!

"See you later, Lao Zhou!"

In the core area of ​​the Great Rift Valley, Qin Shi waved to Zhou Yuanchen who was being taken away by the rescue team.

The latter had a bruised face and nose, and was whimpering and making unclear sounds. Judging from the shape of his mouth, it was probably not something nice.

After defeating the biggest opponent in this top 100 competition, Qin Shi breathed a sigh of relief.

If he had not used Entropy Sea Bank's high-quality customer privileges to freeze Zhou Yuanchen's account, he would most likely have been unable to defeat the other party.

The all-round enhancement brought about by entering a professional field is enough to form a solid barrier that is absolutely overwhelming.

"Finally, I can concentrate on comprehending the Magic Mountain Breathing Technique."

The "furnace" that had been constantly vibrating inside Qin Shi's body gradually calmed down, and the sound of all the bones and bones was putting a huge burden on his mortal body and flesh.

Even though he had broken the three major limits, he still felt like his whole body was about to fall apart. He forced himself to wait until Lao Zhou left before he staggered to sit down.

“The barriers to entry in the professional field are too high.”

Qin Shi closed his eyes, and the self-cultivation furnace rose up.

The radiance of vitality is like flames, entwining every inch of flesh and blood.

It seemed as if there were countless tiny fire snakes crawling under the skin and weaving through the tendons.

Hot gas was faintly gushing out of the pores, and the mist was intertwined, like a huge furnace, emitting a golden red color.

"The self-cultivation furnace has advanced to a higher level, which is causing the signs of my skin barrier to become more and more obvious."

Qin Shi raised the corners of his mouth. He felt his blood flowing like heavy mercury rolling and faintly connected into a string.

Each time a major cycle is completed, it is like some living thing wriggling rapidly, causing the body to rise and fall in coordination with the breathing frequency, presenting unparalleled strength and beauty.

"Jiu Wu's physique is indeed extraordinary."

At some point, a man and a woman appeared on the wide plain at the top of the mountain. They climbed from another direction and climbed here with great difficulty.

The young woman with long black braids and tight combat uniform stared at Qin Shi with her big eyes as if she saw a treasure:
"Aying, look, his skin is like tanned strong leather, both hard and soft, and hard to be damaged by swords and knives! If you punch or kick him, you may not be able to exert even half of your strength!"

The young woman's name was Xia Hong, and like Qin Shi, she was from the old martial arts school.

However, she and her brother Xia Ying belong to the comprehension school, and this school likes to fight to support themselves and make breakthroughs in battle.

Not to mention that it is a rare thing in Dongxia, it is not common even in places like Hengzhou where martial arts are popular.

"Sister, I'm much younger than you, don't be a nympho and want to eat young grass."

Xia Ying reminded.

Zhou Yuanchen, who was strongly promoted by the Central City Education Department, broke through the professional level and was defeated and eliminated by this guy.

Even if they join forces, it probably won't be enough.

"What are you talking about?"

Xia Hong raised her fist and hit her brother Xia Ying's shoulder hard.

"I'm just respecting traditional customs! How can I be considered a nymphomaniac?"

Xia Hong and Xia Ying, brother and sister, are from the Gu tribe in the mountainous area of ​​Hengzhou.

In the early days of the great pioneering, these scarce ethnic minorities were the objects of Dongxia's solidarity.

The Gu people are free-spirited and live near water. Their women have a higher status than men, so their marriage and love customs are very unrestrained.

If a girl of marriageable age falls in love with a boy, she can give him a token of love at the weekly bonfire party, and then wrap the boy in a quilt and carry him home after nightfall.

This is considered a marriage.

In the eyes of her younger brother Xia Ying, her older sister Xia Hong is a typical battle maniac.

When she was learning from her master, many of her fellow students in the school were interested in Xia Hong.

Every time there was a bonfire party, Xia Hong would pick anyone she liked and give them something as a gift.

Then he would sneak over at night, pick a fight with someone, and beat him up until he was black and blue.

The successor of the Nanhuang Dojo who defeated Zhou Yuanchen was handsome and strong in combat, and perfectly met sister Xia Hong's standards for choosing a partner. Xia Ying was really worried, but sister Xia Hong ran over to challenge him without saying a word.

"Is he practicing the self-cultivation furnace of the Nanhuang Dojo?"

Xia Hong and Xia Ying, brother and sister, are from the old martial arts school and know their limits very well.

It is a big taboo to disturb others while they are practicing.

So I didn't get close.

"That should be the case. But the rhythm of the breathing method is very similar to the movement of the Copper Mountain, so deep, so heavy the breath goes in and out of the flesh and blood."

Xia Hong's big eyes, full of wildness and curiosity, blinked:

"How could his mortal body bear it? With your small body, your internal organs would have been riddled with holes."

Xia Ying looked down at her strong body and said dissatisfiedly:

"Hey, hey, hey, sister, how can you compare like that? He's a genius who broke through the barriers in his professional field, and he's the top 100 contestant. No one in the entire Hengzhou can compare to him!"

Xia Hong ignored her brother's mutterings. The Gu people were born with extraordinary talents. They were close to nature and had outstanding perception.

She opened her palms, caught the slightest air current from the howling strong wind, and sniffed it at the tip of her nose.

"Hot, powerful, and full of vitality, it's perfect!"

Xia Ying covered her forehead with her hands; her elder sister’s “love obsession” came back again.

The so-called nymphomaniac means having fantasies about the opposite sex.

Xia Hong is a little different. She doesn't care much about the appearance of the opposite sex. She only cares about whether the vigorous aura exuded by her fellow martial artists is "delicious".

Obviously, the vitality currently displayed by the successor of Nanhuang Taoist Temple has made my sister unable to control herself.

"Calm down, sister! There aren't many people in the old martial arts school who know how to be gentle with women. It will be so embarrassing if you get beaten up later!"

Xia Ying persuaded.

"We have finally climbed up here, and we are hoping to complete the trial and get into the top five!"

Xia Hong showed a look of regret. If only she could have a fierce battle with the successor of Nanhuang Dojo, she could feel the other person's breath flow and physical strength at close range.

that would be nice!

……

……

A few hours passed in a flash, and the sun gradually moved westward.

Qin Shi opened his eyes, and the soft afterglow of the setting sun cast a silhouette of his tall figure.

"My vitality has exceeded ninety points."

The raging heat emitted by the body-cultivation furnace overflows, and is guided by the breathing, slowly gathering back into the body.

The perfect-grade electric shock saber inserted into the ground made a tremor, suddenly shook, flew up, and fell into Qin Shi's palm.

He stroked the cold blade that was emitting cold light, and the radiance of vitality that filled his body interacted with it.

"The best weapon attributes are the noble 'True Damage' and the rare 'Growth'."

Qin Shi thought about waiting until his vitality broke through the 100-point mark, so he asked Lao Liang if he had any "secret weapon refining techniques".

He read books to broaden his horizons and gain experience, and he mentioned them to people he met.

It is said that the old martial arts school, especially the enlightenment school, places great emphasis on "maintaining soldiers" when it comes to holding weapons.

Use your own mentality to nourish your weapons and improve their compatibility, so that you can comprehend advanced killing moves.

"You two have been watching for so long, why don't you come out and chat."

Qin Shi practiced meditation to wash away the exhaustion and fatigue from the fierce battle with Zhou Yuanchen.

His eyes were bright like big stars as he looked in the direction of Xia Hong and Xia Ying.

Many contestants in the core area have been eliminated. Apart from the few who fell to the foot of the mountain, there should only be two siblings from the old martial arts school left.

"Hello, Qin."

Xia Ying spoke first, with a smile on her face, showing her friendliness.

"We were afraid of disturbing your practice, so we stayed far away. In this Hengzhou Top 100 Tournament, you defeated Zhou Yuanchen and won the championship at the professional level. It's very valuable and you deserve the first place! Congratulations!"

Qin Shi realized that the other party had no ill intentions, and smiled faintly:

"Xia, you're overpraising me. I was lucky to beat Lao Zhou."

The successor of Nanhuang Taoist School has a good personality and does not have the arrogance of the disciples of the big sects.

Although Xia Ying is from the old martial arts school, he looks down on some people who always talk about the legacy of their ancestors and their glorious past.

These people are not only conservative, but also arrogant. They have no ambition to make progress and are unwilling to open their eyes and accept reality.

The not-so-good reputation of the old martial arts school was mostly caused by them.

"Student Qin, did you learn the method of guiding the breath and circulating it from this copper mountain? It feels very similar to me."

Xia Hong asked excitedly.

This young lady looks at me in a weird way.

Qin Shi avoided Xia Hong's burning gaze and said softly:
“This copper mountain is the embodiment of a certain rule, and its pulse, every vibration, has a unique rhythm.

You can think of this copper mountain as a heart, catch its beating rhythm, and then correspond it with the human body's breathing. "

Xia Ying followed Qin Shi's advice, closed her eyes and thought for a moment, then said in surprise:
"Sister, it's true! This feels so magical, like a giant is personally demonstrating the breathing method to me!"

Xia Hong said unhappily:

"I've already discovered it! I've already told you that your small body can't stand this kind of breathing rhythm at all. It will only destroy your internal organs!"

Qin Shi shook his head and said:
"That's not the way to say it. Everything should be done step by step. The requirements of the Magic Mountain Breathing Method are very demanding, but you can lower them at the beginning, just like when you first embarked on the path of martial arts, taking one breathing cycle as the standard, and gradually accumulating them. I see that Xia's physique is well-honed, and it's worth a try."

Xia Hong's attitude towards Qin Shi is completely different from the tone she uses when talking to her younger brother Xia Ying.

She thought about it seriously and seemed to think it made sense, so she said to Xia Ying:

"Why don't you thank Qin? This breathing method is of such high standard that it is no worse than the inheritance of a major school!"

Xia Ying pursed his lips but didn't dare to say anything more. He had been beaten by his elder sister Xia Hong since he was a child.

"Just remember, don't be impatient. If you rush for success, you will hurt yourself."

Qin Shi warned.

Although the more advanced the Demon Mountain Breathing Technique is practiced, the easier it is to become like the Great Demon of the Netherworld.

But the brother and sister Xia Hong and Xia Ying are from the old martial arts school, and they follow the path of perception.

I have a firm mind and a strong will, so I am not too worried about this.

"Thank you, Qin!"

Xia Ying clasped his fists towards Qin Shi, bowed, and performed the ancient ritual of the old martial arts school.

"We are all in the same boat, helping each other, it's nothing."

Qin Shi waved his hand. He originally hoped to communicate more with the old martial arts school.

"I will go ahead and head to the end of the trial. We can meet again when we have the chance and learn from each other more."

Xia Hong's eyes flashed with brilliance as she watched Qin Shi's tall figure coming down the mountain:
"Brother, do you feel it?"

Xia Ying was still immersed in the rhythm of the movement of the Copper Mountain and the coordination of human breathing. She looked up blankly and said:

"What?"

Xia Hong had a look of disappointment on her face and raised her fist to hit her younger brother Xia Ying:

"Idiot! Instead of trying to figure out the pulse of Tongshan, you should carefully observe Qin's breathing! I guess he not only relied on his talent to comprehend the breathing method, but also made improvements based on his own cultivation characteristics! He is truly a genius among geniuses!"

Xia Ying looked at her elder sister, whose eyes were about to tear, and her heart skipped a beat. Then she smiled and said:

"Sister, if you can kidnap Qin to be my brother-in-law, I will fully support you!"

Xia Hong narrowed her eyes, rolled up her sleeves and said:

"Very good, then I'll keep your hands! There's no need to keep your legs!"

……

……

At the end of the Great Rift Valley, the night sky is dotted with stars and a cool breeze blows.

Once you leave the core area, the climate is not so bad.

Especially as the chief examiner, the oasis where Xu Sheng was located was sunny and pleasant.

After witnessing the two strongest contestants in this Top 100 competition fighting hard, he couldn't help but sigh:

"Senior, you Nanhuang Gym have found a treasure. A genius who has broken through the barriers of his professional field, in the past, would have been above heroes, a level of natural genius!"

Lao Zhang said calmly:
"Xiao Qin has lived up to my expectations and his performance is indeed outstanding."

Senior, stop pretending to be calm!

You were so excited just now that you almost stood up!

Xu Sheng secretly complained in his heart but did not say it out loud.

"Senior, the first place has been decided. The assessment content of the core area is undoubtedly the best in Qin Shi. As for the second and third places, they are probably taken by the Xia family siblings. With Ji Yuqi and Zheng Xu eliminated, Pei Han got the fourth place... As for the eighth place, choose Yan Ren."

Xu Sheng took out a small notebook and wrote something with a pen. As the chief examiner, after the first round of results were announced, the results of the second round of assessment would naturally be decided by him.

"The Hengzhou Martial Arts Association should be very satisfied. Nanhuang Dojo is the signature of the Martial Arts Association, and Xia Hong and Xia Ying have been the twin stars in recent years. On the other hand, the Education Department of the Central City has gained nothing this time."

Old Zhang turned a deaf ear to him and silently calculated with his head down, wondering how long it would take to break through the iron curtain defense of the central city if he returned to his prime and piloted a military aircraft.

"five minutes."

Soon, the master of Nanhuang Gym came up with the answer.

From driving the magic plane into the central city to arriving at the Red Building, breaking through the iron curtain defense that concentrated 80% of Hengzhou's field resources.

It will take at least five minutes!
"Time makes people grow old. If I were 20 years younger, three minutes would be enough."

Lao Zhang lamented that in his current condition, it was not easy for him to maintain full output for five minutes.

"The only option is to take drugs. Xiao Liang's Hongsheng lineage is good at this. I'll ask him someday."

Lei Hongsheng of Hongsheng is a famous health master.

Many old martial arts masters who used to like to squeeze out their potential and then died halfway through had received help from Lao Liang's master.

"They are here. Senior, I have to take the heir of your Nanhuang Daoist Hall to the altar left by General Qin to receive the initiation of the Heavenly Light."

Xu Sheng said with a smile.

Not far away, Qin Shi's figure gradually became clear, as if he was slowly walking towards us, breaking through the thick fog.

“I hope Xiao Qin can benefit a lot from this.”

Old Zhang sighed.

During the Great Expedition, General Qin had come to Hengzhou, and it was he who sealed the star god sleeping deep in the earth's core.

The supreme marshal, who had made great military achievements and whose light illuminated Dongxia and even most of the Milky Way, opened thirteen void altars, lit thirteen star torches with his own hands, and laid the anchor point for the route.

Later, several vassal wars broke out in Hengzhou, and the high-intensity pollution tarnished it. In addition, the technological breakthroughs of the Supreme Research Institute led to the iteration of navigation technology. The Void Altar lost its use and gradually became a "resource point" for cultivating talents for the Wu Association and the Central City.

"Heavenly Light Initiation has been the best way for old martial arts schools to break through their limitations since ancient times."

Xu Sheng said.

"I remember He Lanchan had meditated for a period of time at the Void Altar in Hengzhou. As the successor of the Nanhuang Taoist Hall, he should not be inferior to Qin Shi."
