Pushing martial arts horizontally: starting from depriving the mantis shrimp of its talent

Chapter 158 Someone is coming!Feed brother some peaches!

"The blood peach is indeed worthy of its reputation. It is indeed a treasure that even blood refining masters want to claim."

Feeling the increase in physical strength, Chen Cheng had a hunch that as long as he went back to practice for a few days, the bottleneck that he could not break through before would no longer be able to trap him.

Chen Cheng touched the second blood peach he had specially asked for in his arms.

"With this blood peach, as long as there are enough refining materials and refining techniques, it can be said that it is 100% possible to create a refining master."

You must know that when a ninth-blood warrior breaks through to become a refined form, there is a high chance that the breakthrough will fail.

At that time, not only will the refining materials collected over decades of hard work be destroyed, but the breaker may also be blown up on the spot.

The reason why these aristocratic families in Wenting are able to maintain their reputation is because there are masters of body refining in every generation.

Those families with generations of masters of form refining will be gradually suppressed in the subsequent competition, their sphere of influence will continue to shrink, and they will receive fewer resources.

With fewer resources obtained, it becomes more difficult to become an alchemist, thus forming a vicious cycle.

It can be said that the master of form refining is the Dinghai Shenzhen of the family.

"If those families whose masters in shaping have aged but have no heirs yet learn that I have a blood peach, I'm afraid their thresholds will be broken, right?"

Now the only ones who know that he has a blood peach on his body are his master Jin Renxiong and himself.

Jin Renxiong would only reveal it to the outside world unless he had nothing to do, and it was even less likely that he would take the initiative to tell the outside world.

"It's a pity that the power of Yin Zhai can only copy flesh and blood. Otherwise, I really want to try to eat blood peaches as fruit."

Chen Cheng was a little regretful. Having said that, he actually didn't feel the taste of the blood peach. All his attention was focused on the effect of the blood peach on improving the physical body.

Chen Cheng came back from Jin Renxiong's small courtyard and came to the third team's small courtyard again. As expected, he found Lu Ya, who had no idea what he was doing before, lying on the table and writing something covered with dust.

Hearing the unfamiliar footsteps, Lu Ya raised his head and raised his eyebrows slightly when he looked at Chen Cheng, who was facing the light and exuding a golden halo.

"Finally come to work? I guessed it was you as soon as I heard the strange footsteps."

"Every time your strength improves, the sound of your footsteps changes. Does it look like you have become a Buddha?"

Lu Ya said with a smile without putting down the pen in his hand.

"What kind of Buddha should I be? I am a concubine of the eighteenth family now. Even if I am given a Buddha, I will not be worthy of it. By the way, what were you doing before? I came here and you were not there?"

"Aren't you working hard in exchange for refining materials? No, I just caught an old devil with seven blood levels and he is writing the materials!"

Lu Ya sighed.

Chen Cheng walked to Lu Ya and handed over a mysterious puppet from his arms.

"What is this for?"

Lu Ya glanced at the little man who seemed to be made of metal in Chen Cheng's hand, leaned back on the chair, tilted his body, and looked at Chen Cheng sideways.

"Isn't it because I haven't come to work for a long time because I'm afraid that you will fire me in anger, so I want to bribe you?"

Chen Cheng said with a smile on his face.

"Bring me a bribe? In front of so many people?"

"You're not good at bribery!"

While Lu Ya was disgusted, he took the Xuan Puppet from Chen Cheng's hand and fiddled with it left and right.

"What's this for?"

"A suit of armor, with pretty good defense, and can also deal with weird things."

Chen Cheng explained briefly.

When Lu Ya heard that he could deal with weird things, he immediately thought of Chen Cheng's endless weird items. He immediately grabbed the Xuan Puppet, hung it around his neck, stuffed it into the clothes on his chest, and patted it.

"Then I won't be polite to you!"

Seeing him accept it, Chen Cheng said again
"I went out for a walk this time, and I felt like I had a breakthrough. I also want to ask you for a few days off, and prepare to go back to retreat."

"Hey! I just accepted your bribe, and you immediately made demands of me. How can you be like this?"

"Okay! Go ahead, go ahead!"

Lu Ya waved his hand with disgust on his face.

Chen Cheng chuckled, turned around and strode away.

Lu Ya watched Chen Cheng leave and suddenly found a blood-red peach appearing in front of him.

After picking it up, he shouted towards Chen Cheng as he gradually walked away.

"Your peach!"

"I've eaten it and left it just for you!"

Chen Cheng waved his hand without looking back, and then disappeared around the corner.

Lu Ya retracted his hand and frowned gradually as he looked at the peach in his hand.

"It's bright red in color and smells strange, hiss~ This can't be that thing, right?!"

Lu Ya suddenly shrank his pupils and thought of something.

He quickly came to the door and raised the blood peach in his hand to Yang Guang. Sure enough, under the sunlight, the surface of the blood peach gradually became transparent, and it seemed that the pulp flowing inside could be seen. At the same time, a strong breath of life emanated from it. out.

"Really a blood peach? This is the warden's treasure, something that many aristocratic families cannot exchange for!"

Lu Ya's eyes shrank to the size of a needle's eye. He thought of something and immediately took the blood peach back.

If this thing is known to other shape-refining warriors, especially those old shape-refining warriors whose families have no heirs and have no descendants to break through the form-refining, they will definitely do whatever it takes, sacrifice their face, and snatch it personally.

"That's right! The second brother has become a disciple of the warden. He just said that he has already eaten one and wants to break through again. It should not be a lie."

"As expected of my second brother, I got the blood peaches that even the shape-refining warriors of the family couldn't get, and there were two of them."

Feeling the powerful vitality contained in the blood peach in his hand, Lu Ya's heart was beating loudly.

With this blood peach, even if he has not yet succeeded in controlling the released energy and blood, as long as he has enough refining materials and refining techniques, he can 100% become a refining warrior.

Shape-refining warrior!There is only one ancestor in the Lu family where he lives!

It can be said that as long as he becomes a shape-refining warrior, he can change the current head of the family if he wants, and his lineage will instantly become the main lineage.

He has successfully redeemed the Form Refining Technique. He got a lot of contribution points by solving the Wangjiang Wei old lady incident last time. Even after redeeming the "Great Sun Golden Crow Refining Heaven and Burning Earth Technique", he still has some leftover.

These remaining contribution points are not enough to exchange for a refining material, but if he eats the blood peach, relying on the buff of refining, as long as he returns to the Lu family to ask for the refining materials that the Lu family has accumulated over the years. The ancestors who have long been looking forward to the rise of their descendants will give him the final decision soon.

The current refining ancestor of the Lu family was more than 200 years ago, and all of his contemporaries were dead. In the past 200 years, the Lu family has also gathered a copy, and 80 years ago, a highly trusted genius in the family use.

But that man failed. Although he barely survived, he felt that he had wasted the efforts of the clan for hundreds of years and lived in guilt. He died of depression within a few years.

As the number of refining materials gradually decreases, the difficulty is gradually increasing even for aristocratic families who want to collect a copy of the refining materials.

After 80 years, only half of it has been collected.

If a blood refining warrior can spend his old age peacefully, his lifespan is usually 120 years.

However, shape-refining warriors can live to be three hundred years old.

It can be said that the ancestor of the Lu family has reached his twilight years and does not have many more years to live. If no new shape-refining warriors are born, it can be said that the decline of the Lu family is imminent.

Now, the hope of revitalizing the family and the transformation of personal identity are all opportunities that lie before us.

"As long as you eat it, all this will come true. Eat it! Eat it! This is specially given to you by your second brother! There is nothing to worry about, eat it!"

At this moment, Lu Ya seemed to have another voice urging him in his mind.

"Yeah! Just eat it."

Lu Ya felt as if the heart in his chest was going to tear out of his chest and jump out.

Lu Ya suddenly stamped his feet, gritted his teeth, and closed his eyes!

Stuffed the blood peach into his sleeve.

"No! This is too precious!" "If I accept it with peace of mind because my second brother gave it to me, then who would I be?!"

Thinking of this, Lu Ya's eyes gradually became firm. He stepped out and rushed out, chasing Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng, who had not yet left the prison department, suddenly heard the whistling of air behind him. He turned around and saw Lu Ya chasing after him. He raised his eyebrows and waited until Lu Ya came to him before saying with a smile.
"What? Are you going to take me back to work?"

Lu Ya came to Chen Cheng, took two steps forward, grabbed one of Chen Cheng's hands, and then put something in his hand.

Chen Cheng looked down and found that the blood peach he had put down just now when Lu Ya wasn't paying attention was returned.

"Brother, what are you doing? It's just an ordinary peach."

Chen Cheng raised his head and smiled easily.

Lu Ya's face was extremely serious at this moment.

"Second brother, you don't need to lie to me. Although I have never seen it, I have heard that the warden has a precious peach tree that can produce a kind of blood peach that can stabilize the nine-blood warrior into his refined form."

The smile on Chen Cheng's face disappeared, and he gradually became silent. He rubbed the downy surface of the blood peach in his hand, and then said
"This is something I honor you as a sworn brother. Just take it. If you return it, wouldn't you be looking down on me, a sworn brother?"

Lu Ya shook his head
"Second brother, I accept your wish! But the blood peach is really too precious. You have to know that if you sell a blood peach that can surely make Nine Bloods into a refined form, those aristocratic families will sell it on the market. How much does it cost?"

"You are from Wangjiang, but one blood peach is enough to exchange for three Wangjiang cities!"

"Such a precious thing cannot be accepted calmly just by saying it is a gift from a brother."

At the end, Lu Ya felt that he might be a little angry, so he comforted him with a smile.

"Your eldest brother, I am young and strong now. I am only in my 30s. I still have another 30 to [-] years at my peak."

"In the past two to thirty years, there is no problem in collecting enough contribution points to exchange for the remaining half of the refining materials."

Lu Ya couldn't reach it, so he patted Chen Cheng's arm and said with a smile.

"How can you enjoy what you earned when others gave it to you?"

"What brother said makes sense!"

Chen Cheng said, but his face suddenly sank.

"But I just like to force others to make things difficult for me!"

The next second, Chen Cheng made a move without warning, and Lu Ya didn't expect that if he didn't check for a moment, the next second, he would be entangled by a black dragon's palm energy that was almost solidified.

Lu Ya's face turned aside, and he suddenly tried to break away with all his strength, but with the power of the ninth blood peak level, in front of the black dragon that restrained him, he was like a mud cow sinking into the sea.

"Brother, as of today, you are completely unable to defeat me, so stop struggling."

"Come on! Open your mouth, ah~~~"

Lu Yedeng looked at Chen Cheng with his eyes open and his mouth closed tightly.

Seeing his uncooperative look, Chen Cheng sighed and said

"There is an old saying in my hometown that he who knows the current affairs is a hero! Since the eldest brother doesn't open his mouth, you can only let me feed you!"

Chen Cheng pinched both sides of Lu Ya's mouth with one hand and forced him to open his mouth. He squeezed the blood peach with force from the other hand and squeezed the blood peach into juice, then forcefully put the juice into his mouth.

After doing all this, Chen Cheng let go of his hand and let go of the restrained black dragon.

Lu Ya was about to open his mouth after untying his restraints, but Chen Cheng quickly stopped him when he saw this.
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't vomit! Now the blood peach's life essence has been fully stimulated. If you spit it out, it will be wasted!"

When Lu Ya heard this, he swallowed back what he was about to spit out.

"Gudu!"

Hearing the sound of swallowing, a smile appeared on Chen Cheng's face.

"Oh, that's right! What does a grown man's mother-in-law look like?"

"How many tasks can you do with nine blood? How many contribution points can you earn? How can you make money as quickly as you become a form-refiner?"

After swallowing the blood peach juice, a strong life essence spread in his intestines and stomach. Lu Ya felt that the flesh and blood all over his body seemed to be boiling at this moment, frantically absorbing the life essence and medicinal power emitted by the blood peach. After a few breaths, In a short period of time, I felt that my improvement exceeded the total of the past year.

The blood peach was crushed by Chen Cheng and turned into juice. After entering the intestines and stomach, the medicinal power was fully stimulated. At this moment, Lu Ya's stomach was filled with the life essence transformed from the blood peach. He did not dare to open his mouth at all, because he was worried that if he opened his mouth, there would be A large amount of medicinal power leaked out.

Chen Cheng also saw Lu Ya's condition and said with a smile

"Brother, I'm afraid you don't have time to argue with me for the time being, so you'd better skip work and go back to retreat!"

Lu Ya hit Chen Cheng's chest with his fist, his eyes filled with gratitude at this moment.

Now that the blood peach has turned into juice and completely entered his stomach, it's a done deal. It would be hypocritical to say anything unwilling. If you are really grateful, you might as well make up for it later when you become a shape-refining warrior.

After thinking about this clearly, Lu Ya stopped delaying, passed by Chen Cheng and went straight to the Lu Mansion.

Seeing Lu Ya running at high speed, Chen Cheng smiled slightly.

"Whatever is good to me, I will repay you ten times or a hundred times."

"If you treat me badly, even if it's a mockery or a look, I will repay you a hundred times!"

Chen Cheng murmured, then left the Prison Department, found the coachman who was drinking tea in a teahouse near the Prison Department, got on the carriage and headed towards home.
-
In an unknown place in the darkness, the pitch-black environment makes it impossible to see clearly the hands and feet.

A huge bronze round table stands out against this background.

The huge volume occupies most of the sight, shining with dark golden light in the darkness, and the surface is engraved with mysterious relief patterns.

The chairs around the round table look extraordinarily tall, like standing giants.

The back of each chair is extremely tall compared to the handle, and there are different patterns on the top of the back, like some kind of totem, which looks particularly mysterious in the dark.

Some chairs are painted with humans with four wings, others have patterns of a night sky filled with stars; others are unique with the greenery of the forest or the blue waves of the sea.

Below the totem, tall or short figures were shrouded in a layer of black mist, filling the entire bronze round table.

"Barton, I heard that you were arrested by a silver order from the Prison Department and ruined the sacrifice?"

In the darkness, a loud voice came from a high chair with a mountain carved on the back.

The huge voice made the entire space seem to vibrate.

Hearing these words, everyone who had hidden their true appearance in the black mist looked in one direction of the round table.

On a chair engraved with a totem of a giant snake coiling around the world, a figure heard the words, and the black mist on his body began to fluctuate.

When everyone saw this, they immediately understood that this might indeed be the case, and there was a burst of laughter and even ridicule in the space.

"Are the people of the Snake Tribe already so miserable? How could they be arrested by a small silver order from the Prison Department and spoil their good deeds?"

"I remember that as long as you have the strength of fourth blood, you can become the Silver Order Chief of the Prison Department, right? When did human fourth-blood warriors become so strong? It seems that we will have to stay away from the Silver Order arresters of the Prison Department in the future. .”

"enough!"

A hoarse voice suddenly came from the chair wrapped around the World Serpent.

This voice is none other than Barton, the domain-level master of the Snake Tribe!

"What? You were arrested by Yin Ling and ruined a good thing, why don't you let me talk about it?"

A roar like a landslide came from the chair carved with mountains.

"I can only say that the Silver Order head catcher is extraordinary. If you don't believe it, you can try it!"

"I don't think there's much to do in this meeting of all races, so I'll leave first!"

After saying that, Barton, shrouded in black mist, stood up and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

"Hmph! It's just a silver order to catch the head. No matter how powerful it is, how powerful can it be?"

On a chair with a mountain pattern carved on it, an unusually tall figure smiled disdainfully.

　I have been working for a month and a half. My current job is in a state-owned enterprise.

　　Starting yesterday, our batch of employees who passed the exam were organized by the company to participate in military training. We had no time to code during the day, so we could only come back at nine o'clock in the evening, take a shower, and write a little quickly.

　　Updates may be unstable these days, please forgive me.
