I ascended to godhood through the 100-ton King Martial Arts.

After driving away those extraterrestrial demons.

The remaining issues are internal problems.

Guixu is only that big.

Humanity needs to reproduce.

Each group of spirit beasts also needs enough land to live in.

At first, they were both quite restrained.

Gradually, the friction will increase.

In short, another great battle broke out between the two sides, and in the end, the spirit beast clan was defeated, taking a large number of humans with them as they fled to the mountains of the northern frontier, where they became known as demons among the warriors.

The remaining high-ranking humans, having acquired the bloodline, found it extremely difficult to reproduce among themselves and thus split into two factions.

A faction is a family lineage.

These bloodline families only intermarry among themselves, and all the spoils from conquering the Bitter Realm are used to sacrifice to the gods and immortals in order to achieve a sublimation of their bloodline.

Another faction chooses to reproduce with the native human race, actively weakening their bloodline.

After weakening the bloodline.

The probability of younger generations awakening their immortal bones is getting lower and lower, but once they do awaken them, they will have overwhelming talent in the path of martial arts.

Gradually, the immortal bones became the martial bones we know today.

Thanks to the abundant resources from the Bitter Realm, the martial arts system has once again become the mainstream system, gradually regaining some of the glory recorded in ancient times.

Those who develop martial prowess quickly are regarded as talented individuals by various sects and directly listed as true disciples, serving as the main fighting force for the counterattack against the Bitter Realm.

...

Hearing Wang Xiao say this, Li Qingshan relaxed a lot.

It turns out I was overthinking things.

Martial bones are immortal bones.

This bloodline, after tens of thousands of years of reproduction, has already replaced the blood of all humankind.

What's there to be afraid of?

Without the pressure, Li Qingshan relaxed a lot.

He looked at Wang Xiao, who had pulled out a wine flask from somewhere and was savoring it: "Instructor Wang, tell me about the Ding Kingdom and the Martial Alliance. Now that we've become martial artists, won't we be conscripted and have to fight against the Ding Kingdom?"

Wang Xiao put down the wine pot and nodded:

"That's natural. Every sect has at least one entrance to the Bitter Realm."

Hardship is also the foundation upon which we martial artists depend for survival.

The fact that the Ding Kingdom wants to seize these entrances from us is an act of hatred against the Dao.

Therefore, large-scale battles occur at the border every year.

But these things don't really concern us.

Our Iron Leg Gate is located near the West Sea, which is considered the westernmost area of ​​Guixu.

The front lines provide the people, and we provide the resources.

Our biggest pressure comes from the tax revenue.

However, our Iron Legs Sect has a large number of Gluttonous Pigs kept in the Bitter Realm, so the pressure in this regard is not great.

You don't need to think too much.

Hearing Wang Xiao say this, Li Qingshan relaxed even more.

Live again.

He's still quite afraid of dying.

In particular, this world actually has traces of immortals and gods.

Doesn't that mean that longevity and immortality are not a myth?

With the talent of being a hundred-ton king, there is no doubt that he may climb to the top and become an immortal.

Life is getting better and better.

...

"Alright, that's all. After you join the Iron Legs Sect, you can go to the Scripture Pavilion to look up the classics yourself. I won't waste any more words."

Wang Xiao talked on and on, and then he got tired.

He downed the remaining wine in the jug in one gulp, savored it for a moment, and then continued, "Now that you've sensed the blood, the next step is to transform yourself. What are you planning to do?"

Li Qingshan had thought about this on his way here.

Now that we know the secrets of martial arts, we will no longer hide them.

He went straight to the point: "Instructor, my recovery ability is decent. Which path do you think I'm more suited for?"

Wang Xiao glanced at him, a smile in his eyes.

This little thing, even after growing into a martial arts master, doesn't report it. It's so self-important, hiding it away, I don't know what it's afraid of.

He didn't bother to point it out if the other party didn't say anything.

After learning that Li Qingshan possessed martial arts talent, the man's status in his heart changed from a passerby he could casually help to a potential investment opportunity.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken out the precious pork earlier.

Do you really think he's a great philanthropist?

It's all driven by self-interest.

Thinking about this...

Wang Xiao stroked his chin, beginning to ponder a more suitable approach for Li Qingshan: "Restore..."

I waited for about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

Wang Xiaocai tapped the table: "On the path of martial arts, the physical body realm is just the beginning. If you want to go further, you still need to cultivate your own mindset. Do you remember the three choices I told you about before?"

Li Qingshan nodded.

The flesh and blood realm is divided into three stages: skin and flesh, tendons and bones, and blood exchange. There is no order of priority, but a person is a whole. Once the first direction of transformation is chosen, the subsequent choices are limited.

Wang Xiao stretched out his palm, his blood and qi surging, radiating a scorching aura that distorted the surrounding spatial perspective, turning into a heat wave that slapped against Li Qingshan's face beside him.

He waved his engorged palm:

"By sensing the blood, one can drive the blood and qi in the body to flow throughout the body, strengthen that area, and unleash a stronger explosive force."

This process itself passively strengthens our bodies, allowing us to begin a complete transformation.

But this passive transformation is too slow.

The amount of blood and energy produced by the human body each day is limited.

With such a gentle approach.

It takes ten to twenty years to complete a complete transformation.

To accelerate this process, our ancestors developed the Body Transformation Stance Exercise, which transforms blood and qi into internal strength and tempers the body.

As he spoke, Wang Xiao stretched out his finger and pointed in the air.

next moment.

The air between the two seemed to have been disturbed, creating ripples on the calm surface of the water.

"This wave-shaped heat is the Thousand-Layer Strength of our Iron Leg School, which can transform blood and qi into layers of force to forge our bodies."

He paused, then looked at Li Qingshan: "Having seen this, do you have any ideas now?"

Li Qingshan pondered: "Instructor, this force is probably more effective on the surface, and is more suitable for tempering the skin, flesh, muscles and bones."

Wang Xiao nodded:

"Yes, the 'thousand-layer strength' is more suitable for tempering in the skin, flesh, muscles, and bones."

A complete transformation, from the inside out, is the fastest.

However, if you try to use the thousand-layer force from the inside out, it will cause your blood, energy, and strength to be consumed before the hammering and tempering even begin.

An ordinary person can only condense a limited amount of blood and qi each day.

Excessive waste will only prolong the time required for a complete transformation.

Before a martial artist breaks through to the physical realm, their blood and energy are at their peak at thirty and decline at forty.

If one fails to break through before the age of thirty, even if they gradually achieve it later, they can only undergo one complete transformation and become the most mediocre martial artist.

This is why I said before that without a lot of money and enough talent, one can only temper oneself from the outside in, through repeated trials and tribulations.

Now you know how to choose, right?

When Li Qingshan heard that Wang Xiao didn't make a choice for him directly, but instead explained the principles step by step, he suddenly felt enlightened.

He looked at the other person gratefully and nodded.

If one has the talent for self-healing, an inexhaustible supply of blood and energy, and sufficient resources, then the fastest path is to work from the inside out, first the bones and muscles, then the blood, and finally the skin and flesh.

As long as there are enough resources.

Even those with extraordinary talent cannot match his speed of transformation.

But what if resources can't keep up?

It's better to take it slow and grind it out.

That way, at least you won't burn yourself to death.

While the self-healing ability is strong, the key lies in resources.

Wang Xiao's words not only made him understand the details of the physical body realm more clearly, but also made him know clearly what his next goal was.

The question is, how do I get a lot of resources?

...

Li Qingshan turned his gaze to Wang Xiao: "Instructor, how is the Iron Leg Sect's support for those who have awakened their martial bones?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiao knew that Li Qingshan had indeed understood his meaning.

He smiled slightly: "It's not bad, but it's not as good as you think. Moreover, after reaching the Physical Realm, those who develop martial bones will face two different paths. Once they take the wrong path, it will be too late to regret it."

Upon hearing that it concerned him, Li Qingshan quickly said, "Please enlighten me, Master."

Wang Xiaoshun had been laying the groundwork for a while when he finally revealed his true intentions: "One path is naturally the path of martial arts, and the other is the bloodline system."

"The nine realms of martial arts are the Nourishing Body Realm, the Physical Body Realm, and the Qi Sea Realm, the Meridian Opening Realm, and the Spirit Transformation Realm. Each realm consumes more than ten times the resources of the previous one."

"The bloodline system is divided into immortal bones and acquired martial bones."

Immortal bones are only possessed by families with a distinguished bloodline. Once they reach adulthood, they are comparable to martial arts experts at the Spirit Transformation stage.

The martial bones that are awakened later in life require offering sacrifices to immortals and gods. After reaching the physical body realm, they are further divided into seven stages of spiritual energy. Finally, they awaken seven minor divine abilities and their martial bones transform into immortal bones, making them comparable to the powerhouses of the martial arts spiritual transformation stage.

However, compared to the path of martial arts.

For those not born into a powerful family, the upper limit for advancing further is the Spirit Transformation stage. They would need to truly sell themselves to a sect to have any chance of reaching that level.

After saying that, he looked at Li Qingshan: "What do you think we should choose?"

Li Qingshan replied without hesitation: "Naturally, it's the path of martial arts."

He already sensed that something was wrong.

The other party seemed to be giving him a choice between two options, but in reality, unless one was desperate, who would be willing to sell themselves just to reach the starting point of a noble family?

Therefore, there is only one answer.

That is the path of martial arts.

But what is Wang Xiao's purpose in wasting so much breath?
