Longevity starts with inheriting a friend's legacy

Chapter 163 Ancient martial arts, nine levels of foundation, used to nourish the spirit!

Three figures came to a place not far in front of Fang Xu and stopped.

When the leading figure looked at Fang Xu and Yun Wan, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.

"Yun Qing?"

Behind Fang Xu, Yun Wan hurriedly tried to rush forward.

But the two blood-robed figures behind him, whose strength had reached the fifth level of Martial Honor, directly blocked Yun Wan.

"Step aside!"

Yun Wan exuded the aura of a martial arts master and scolded in a cold voice.

"It's so fast, sister has broken through to Wu Zun."

Behind the two, Yun Qing slowly said, "Get out of the way."

The two blood-robed figures bowed slightly and then returned to his back.

Yun Qing slowly took off the strange mask on his face and looked at Yun Wan in front of him. A hint of excitement flashed across his face, but then he said indifferently, "Sister, why don't you stay in the Ascension Society and come here?"

After saying this, Yun Qing turned to look at Fang Xu and said, "It's been a few years since we last met, and you're still only at the fifth level of martial artist. How disappointing."

Fang Xu frowned slightly, he didn't know what Yun Qing was doing.

"Yunqing, go back with your sister."

Yun Wan pleaded, not used to Yun Qing's attitude.

"go back?"

"Go back and be a lost dog?"

Yun Qing's face flashed a wicked smile, and then he glanced at the Li Shu who were kneeling on the ground and dared not look up and said with a smile: "Sister, do you see my current status?"

"In the eyes of millions of people in Zhongshanqi, I am their god..."

"Yan Shen!"

"Yan Shen!"

……

As soon as he finished speaking, countless kneeling common people shouted loudly!

Yun Qing showed a satisfied smile on his face, looked at Yun Wan jokingly and said, "Did you see it?"

Yun Wan looked heartbroken and stared at her brother in a daze.

"You are not like this, this is not you..."

"Yun Qing, come back with me."

Reaching out and tugging at Yun Qing's clothes, Yun Wan pleaded again.

Swish!
Yun Qing swung his sleeves violently, and the powerful force caused Yun Wan to stagger.

The moment he waved his sleeves, Fang Xu caught a glimpse of Yun Qing's arm and a look of horror appeared on his face!
It looked like a scaly arm!

Holding Yun Wan, Fang Xu stared at Yun Qing and asked, "Have you accepted the transformation of Yanshen Sect?"

Hearing this, Yun Wan looked at Yun Qing with surprise.

"Transformation?" Yun Qing smiled and stretched out his hand.

This time, Fang Xu finally saw it clearly.

"Yun Qing, your hand!" Yun Wan cried out in surprise as she watched her brother's palm turn into a state that looked neither human nor ghost.

However, Yunqing didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with what he did.

He gently clenched his scaly palm and swung it violently at the man on the ground whose legs had been crippled by Fang Xu!
A violent force directly beat the man into a pulp!

The scattered blood splattered on his body and face...

He actually used his sharp nails to gently scrape off the blood on his face, and licked it with his tongue in ecstasy.

"What happened to my hand?"

“This is power…”

Facing the gazes of Fang Xu and Yun Wan, Yun Qing smiled evilly.

Yun Wan was desperate. She didn’t know why her brother had become like this, and she didn’t know whether Yun Qing could ever turn back.

"Let's go." After taking a look at Yun Qing at this moment, Fang Xu spoke directly.

"Walk?"

"Sister can leave, but you can't."

Looking at Fang Xu, Yun Qing smiled faintly and said, "My Lord has been looking for you."

"You came to my door today, and you still want to leave?"

Fang Xu looked at him with a faint smile: "Why, you want to keep me?"

Yun Qing didn't say anything, but waved his hand and said, "Everyone, get out of my way!"

When the common people kneeling around heard this, they quickly stood up and stepped back, making some distance.

"Those losers at home all say that you are very strong."

"I tried again and again, but they kept running away..."

"Today I want to see how strong you are."

Yun Qing said as he slowly walked towards Fang Xu.

"Yun Wan, please step back."

Fang Xu was also a little angry at this time.

Yun Qing in this state was obviously no longer the Yun Qing he knew.

If you want to bring it back, you have to defeat it completely.

The aura on his body slowly condensed, and with a flash of light in his hand, the black iron rod appeared in his hand.

He has already decided.

Since we can't resolve it peacefully, let's have a good fight today.

Behind Yun Qing, two blood-robed figures at the fifth level of Martial Honor were also slowly walking towards Fang Xu.

"Let me do it myself!"

Yun Qing seemed very confident in his current strength and refused the help of the two.

The two Yanshen sect members who were at the fifth level of Martial Honor looked at each other, but ultimately did not take another step forward.

boom!
A hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, Yun Qing suddenly clenched his fist, and flashed towards Fang Xu!

Boom!
The scaly fist smashed into the black iron rod. The terrifying force created an invisible shock wave that shook some of the surrounding houses!
The attack was blocked, Yun Qing's eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, and then he stretched out his other arm!

It is also covered with scales and sharp nails!

After stretching out his two arms, he was like a ferocious beast, and his huge fists were like two big hammers, hammering madly!

Fang Xu held up the iron rod to resist and kept moving backwards.

No one knew what ferocious beast Yun Qing's arms were transplanted from, but their power was terrifying.

This is only Fang Xu. If it were any other warrior, even one at the Martial Honor level, he would probably not be able to withstand such a violent attack!

"Fight back!"

"Aren't you very strong!?"

"Fight back! Trash!"

Yun Qing looked like a madman, roaring while hitting!

Fang Xu's eyes narrowed slightly, and when he was about to attack, he thrust the black iron in his hand forward!
While blocking the fist that was coming down, he directly swept it horizontally and hit Yun Qing's side!
The terrifying force directly blew him away, and his body was like a cannonball, smashing the surrounding houses!

"Yun Qing!"

Behind him, Yun Wan saw this and became a little worried about her brother's safety.

But the next moment!
A scarlet figure flew out directly from the smoke and dust!

While in mid-air, Yun Qing waved his sharp claws directly at Fang Xu!

One after another, scarlet claw marks attacked Fang Xu as if to tear the air apart!

Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
……

Fang Xu dodged with the black iron stick!
Huge claw marks were left on the surrounding houses, and those houses built of bluestone were as fragile as tofu!
Some of the common people who were nearby were hit by the claw marks and had their intestines ripped open on the spot.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xu frowned.

He knew that Yun Qing no longer had any humanity at this moment. If he continued to fight with him here, the people around them would be killed by the aftermath of their attacks.

With a tap of his toes, he immediately rushed towards the deserted grassland in the distance.

Yun Qing chased after him relentlessly, and Yun Wan and the two blood-robed figures from the Yanshen Sect also followed.

Arriving at the grassland, Fang Xu can finally let go.

Looking at Yun Qing who was chasing him, he suddenly jumped out!

hold head high!
A dragon roar sounded!

Dragon Swim was activated, and Fang Xu's body turned into a five-clawed golden dragon, with a black iron stick as the head, and rushed directly towards Yun Qing!

Bang!
Yun Qing, who had just rushed up, was unable to dodge and was directly hit and flew out by Fang Xu's stick!

His body plowed a trail dozens of feet long on the grassland, and he staggered to his feet.

He didn't seem to be seriously hurt by the blow.

He roared and rushed forward again.

Seeing this, Fang Xu suddenly jumped up!
The next moment, a huge shadow of a Kuiniu appeared on his body in mid-air!

boom!
The one foot of the Kuiniu phantom stepped directly towards Yun Qing below!
Fang Xu's kick left a huge footprint on the grassland!

In the footprints, Yun Qing was stepped on by Fang Xu. No matter how he struggled, he could not shake Fang Xu at all.

"enough!"

Fang Xu shouted coldly.

He guessed that the reason why Yun Qing became like this was most likely because of the transplantation of these two arms.

The only plan now is to find a way to subdue him first, then bring him back to the Ascension Society to see if Xu Changqing has any way to save him.

"Roar!"

Being stepped on by Fang Xu, Yun Qing's eyes turned red and he let out an angry roar!

Seeing this, the two Yanshen sect believers who arrived later also rushed over to help!

But at this moment, Yun Qing seemed to be completely enraged. He reached out and took out a bottle of black medicine from his arms and stuffed it into his mouth along with the bottle!

next moment!
A terrifying force burst out from his body, directly knocking Fang Xu away!

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

After taking the divine blood, Yun Qing let out a series of roars and his body began to rapidly change!
The swelling body tore through the blood-stained robe, and the body grew to more than ten feet tall at a speed visible to the naked eye!

A large number of scales grew on the body surface, the back was bulging, and several sharp bone spurs stained with blood emerged from the spine!
After the mutation, the person standing in front of Fang Xu was no longer Yun Qing, but a complete monster.

After taking the divine blood, the transformed Yun Qing seemed to be more completely alienated than those ordinary Yanshen sect followers.

With his greatly increased strength, he, together with two Yanshen sect members who were at the fifth level of Martial Honor, formed a horn-like formation and surrounded Fang Xu in the middle.

Outside, Yun Wan saw this and immediately drew her weapon and prepared to come forward to help.

"Move back!"

Fang Xu immediately stopped him.

Whether it was the transformed Yun Qing or the two people from the Yanshen Sect, neither of them could be dealt with by a newly promoted Martial Master like Yun Wan.

Yun Wan was stunned for a moment, looked at Fang Xu with some concern, but finally chose to believe him and did not rush forward.

On Fang Xu's side, looking at the encirclement formed by the three people, he no longer held back, and a huge phantom of a demon ape appeared behind him!

Ever since he watched Chu Rendi use the energy between heaven and earth to display his magical powers on the Life and Death Stage last time, Fang Xu himself has been trying to figure it out for a long time.

Now, when he uses the Three Transformations of the Demonic Ape again, he no longer relies solely on his own energy and blood.

A huge phantom of the demon ape appeared, even more terrifying than the transformed Yun Qing!
The demon ape's phantom held a terrifying stick in his hand that was completely condensed from the energy of heaven and earth!
He swung it directly at the three people!
After constructing the Demonic Ape Battle Star Chart in his body, he is now much stronger than before when using his magical power, the Demonic Ape Three Transformations.

A huge stick formed of qi and blood fell from the sky. Its terrifying power made the two Yanshen sect members whose strength had reached the fifth level of Martial Honor feel a little fear in their hearts!
too strong!
Is this kid really a fifth-level martial artist?
The two did not dare to take Fang Xu's move head-on and dodged!

However, Yun Qing at this time did not bother to dodge, and rushed up suddenly towards the shadow of the Tongtian stick that was smashing down!
Bang!
The bloody stick smashed down, and as Yun Qing's body just rose from the ground, he was directly knocked down by the bloody stick!
Bang!
The terrifying force directly slammed his body into the ground of the grassland!
After two Yanshen sect members who were at the fifth level of Martial Honor dodged the attack, they immediately launched an attack on Fang Xu's real body.

But at this time Fang Xu was not afraid at all. He faced the two people who rushed up and smashed them on the head with the long black iron stick in his hand.

He possesses two special star maps, Kuiniu and Zhuding. Not only his attacks, but even his blood and energy are extremely heavy.

The black iron stick smashed down with unrivaled momentum, and one of the Yanshen sect members who was at the fifth level of Martial Honor immediately wanted to raise his weapon to resist.

However, his weapons were just two short swords of strange shapes, and he was obviously taking a light approach. Facing Fang Xu's powerful attack, he had no way of blocking it.

The two strange swords crossed above his head and accurately blocked the black iron stick, but the terrifying force made his arms numb and his feet sank directly into the soft grassland.

Fang Xu's attack was not only powerful but also extremely fast.

After the blow was landed, without giving him any time to react, the long stick was pulled and loosened, and he used the stick as a gun and stabbed directly into his chest!
Clang!
Just when the long stick was about to pierce his body, another member of the Yanshen Sect also rushed over, and the long sword in his hand directly picked up Fang Xu's black iron long stick, saving his companion's life.

He reached out and pulled his companion out of the grass, and the two of them, one on the left and one on the right, launched a fierce attack!

For a moment, sword beams nearly a hundred feet long raged across the grassland, and countless scarlet blades flew around Fang Xu!

A Martial Master can understand his own star map, and the methods of releasing his energy that a martial artist can possess can be used in new ways in the hands of a Martial Master!
And with the help of the power connected to the star map, Wu Zun's attacks are more attractive and more powerful.

The two launched a violent attack and suppressed Fang Xu in a short time.

Bang!
At the same time, Yun Qing, who was smashed into the ground by Fang Xu's stick, also broke out of the ground. His body like a monster rushed straight towards Fang Xu. The black aura emanating from his body looked extremely evil and weird.

Roar!
Seeing Yun Qing rushing over, the three-meter-tall demon ape figure behind Fang Xu let out an angry roar, and then a pair of huge ape hands grasped the rushing Yun Qing!
The big hand formed by qi and blood directly grabbed Yun Qing's body, and then violently threw it left and right!
Bang!
Bang!
……

Yun Qing's body was like a rag bag in the hands of the demon ape's phantom, and was swung to the ground again and again!
The soft earth of the grassland was completely destroyed at this moment, and was full of holes!

After throwing them for unknown number of times, Fang Xu directly threw Yun Qing towards the two martial masters of the Ascension Society!

The two men didn't dare to dodge, and they used all their strength to catch Yun Qing who was thrown at them.

After the three of them stood firmly, Yun Qing seemed to be knocked unconscious. His body shook for a while, and his completely beastly head shook vigorously. Then he suddenly broke free from the support of the two people and rushed towards Fang Xu again.

Bang!
However, just as he rushed out, a huge bronze tripod suddenly fell from the sky and trapped him directly in the tripod.

Seeing everything that happened last night, Fang Xu looked at the two powerful martial masters of the Yanshen Sect, and a purple-black flame rose in each of his eyes.

This strange scene made the two men feel their hair stand on end. Just as they were about to resist, the same purple-black flames appeared on their bodies!
"fire!"

“You’re on fire!”

One of the martial masters looked at the purple-black flames on his companion and said in surprise.

The companion turned around: "You have it too!"

"What the hell is this!?"

The two looked at the purple-black flames burning on each other's bodies, but they did not feel any burning sensation, and even their clothes were not damaged. They were full of confusion.

But the next moment, a piercing pain suddenly came over them, and the black flames instantly ignited their souls!

The pain of a burning soul is hundreds or thousands of times more intense than the pain of a burning body!
The two of them couldn't hold on any longer and rolled on the ground in pain!

On Fang Xu's side, the purple-black flames in his eyes were burning fiercely, but his face was becoming paler and paler.

The ability of the Shenyi Star Map to burn the enemy's soul requires a large amount of his own soul power to be used.

At the same time, he was targeting two warriors at the fifth level of Martial Honor. Even though he possessed the Mysterious Water Soul, he could not sustain this kind of consumption for a while.

But he can't give up.

At this time, the shadow of the demon ape behind him had disappeared.

If I can't wipe out these two people in one fell swoop, I won't have any way to fight against them in the future.

There was a trapped Yun Qing not far away. After his transformation, he became very powerful.

The purple-black flame was still burning. After the initial panic, the two martial masters now mobilized their spiritual power with all their strength to try to disperse the strange flame attached to their souls.

Time passed by bit by bit, and seeing that Fang Xu was about to collapse, Yun Wan, who was standing beside him, suddenly realized that she should do something at this time.

Looking at the two Martial Masters of the Yanshen Sect who were trying their best to resist the black flames, she directly drew out her sword and slashed at the two Martial Masters with several sharp sword qi!

At this moment, all of their attention was on the purple-black flames that were burning their souls. Even though they saw the sword light coming from Yun Wan, they were unable to dodge for a moment.

puff!
puff!
……

The sharp sword tore open the blood-red robes of the two men, leaving deep wounds on their bodies that could be seen to the bone!
When Yun Wan saw this, a sharp light flashed in her eyes!
The next moment, the long sword in his hand was slowly raised, and the brilliant sword energy slowly gathered on the long sword, and finally formed a long sword that reached the sky!

drink!
With a light shout, the piercing sword energy swept directly towards the two martial masters of the Yanshen Sect!

Can't stop!
The physical body cannot withstand this attack at all!
The two were at the fifth level of Martial Honor, but Yun Wan's cultivation had also reached the first level of Martial Honor. This sword used almost all of her strength. If they were hit, the two felt that their bodies would definitely be cut in half easily!

There was a purple-black flame burning the soul inside, and a sword energy from outside that was about to cut the body. Both of them were panicked.

After weighing the pros and cons, they immediately gave up resisting the purple-black flames and chose to save their own bodies first.

However, as soon as the consciousness gave up resisting the purple-black flames, the flames above the soul instantly ignited!

The severe pain came, and the two had no way to resist it.

puff!
The sword swept over, and the two men's bodies were directly cut into two pieces!
Two warriors who were at the fifth level of Martial Honor died on the grassland in such a miserable way.

After dealing with them, Fang Xu quickly looked at Yun Qing standing aside.

The bronze cauldron was controlled by him with his consciousness. As he competed with the two Martial Lords in spiritual power, his spiritual power was rapidly consumed, and his control over the bronze cauldron became increasingly weaker.

At this time, the bronze cauldron had been hit by Yun Qing and was full of cracks!

boom!
The frantic Yun Qing hit the bronze tripod again, smashing it directly, and then rushed towards Fang Xu angrily!

"Yun Qing!"

Seeing this, Yun Wan raised her sword to stop Fang Xu and tried to wake up her brother.

However, Yun Qing had no rationality at all at this time and punched his sister!
The scarlet fist smashed towards Yun Wan like a burning meteor!

Bang!
Seeing that Yun Wan seemed not prepared to resist, Fang Xu behind her endured the weakness brought by the consumption of his soul, dodged, and used the black iron stick in his hand to break up the scarlet fist mark.

"He has lost all consciousness now. The only way is to wake him up."

Fang Xu spoke.

Yun Wan's face was sad, and the arm holding the sword kept shaking, as if she couldn't bring herself to do it.

Fang Xu held the stick in front of her and said, "Leave it to me."

He swung the black iron stick in his hand and launched a violent attack towards Yun Qing who was rushing towards him.

The so-called divine blood of the Yanshen Sect can only be awakened by the user after its energy is completely consumed by the most violent attack!
The heavy iron rod hit Yun Qing's body again and again, but it was difficult to cause any fatal damage to him.

He was blown away again and again, and rushed up again and again.

The wild and desperate fight between the two men caused great damage to the grassland within a radius of more than ten miles.

Seeing Yun Qing still rushing forward fearlessly, Fang Xu narrowed his eyes slightly!
The next moment, purple-black flames rose in his eyes again!

At the same time, purple-black flames also ignited on Yun Qing's body opposite.

Compared with the two Yanshen sect members who are at the fifth level of Martial Honor, Yun Qing's spiritual power is much weaker.

His original strength was only at the ninth level of martial artist, and perhaps he had a breakthrough after joining the Yanshen Sect, but his powerful strength mostly came from his modified arms.

The most fundamental spirit is not that strong.

As his soul endured the burning of the divine flame, Yun Qing let out bursts of death sounds, and his huge body kept rolling on the grassland.

The purple-black flames in Fang Xu's eyes burned more and more vigorously.

The Mysterious Water Soul has another advantage, which is its strong self-healing ability.

The spiritual power that was consumed in the spiritual competition with two Yanshen sect members who were at the fifth level of Martial Honor just now had been restored a lot during the battle with Yun Qing.

At this time, attacking Yun Qing's soul with the divine flame was not too stressful for Fang Xu.

Yun Qing, whose body was covered in purple-black flames, roared weaker and weaker, and the scales on his body gradually disappeared, and his alienated body gradually returned to normal.

Curled up in a patch of dead grass, he finally stopped struggling.

Fang Xu took back the divine flame.

Yun Wan ran over quickly.

Yun Qing looked miserable at this moment. The bloody bone spurs on his back had not disappeared, and his body was covered in blood.

He opened his eyes weakly, looked at Fang Xu and Yun Wan in front of him, and slowly smiled.

"Sister, Fang Xu..."

"Yun Qing, sister will take you back..." Yun Wan said with tears on her face as she looked at the miserable Yun Qing.

"Sister, I can't go back." Yun Qing forced a smile on his face, turned his head to look at Fang Xu, and said with a complicated expression:
"Fang Xu, seeing you are so strong, I feel relieved."

"My sister...I'll leave it to you."

Fang Xu squatted down, checked Yun Qing's body, and his expression suddenly changed.

He could clearly feel that the two monster arms transplanted into Yun Qing were severely injured and were constantly sucking his blood in an attempt to recover themselves.

“Did you find out?” Yun Qing smiled miserably and said, “I can’t go back. I will die if I lose these two arms. I will also die if I leave them behind…”

"Besides, my soul has been infected. It was your strange flame that allowed me to regain my sanity temporarily."

"Fang Xu, kill me."

"Stop turning me into that bloodthirsty and brutal monster."

Fang Xu shook his head: "There will be a way. I will take you back to the Ascension Fairy Club now..."

"I asked you to kill me!" Yun Qing was a little excited, and in an instant, his eyes gradually turned scarlet.

But then, the scarlet color slowly faded away, and a look of painful struggle appeared on his face.

"I can't control it anymore!"

"Please, kill me..."

Yun Qing looked at Fang Xu with a pleading look on his face.

But Fang Xu just couldn't do anything.

"Sister, help your brother..."

"You don't want to see your brother become that half-human, half-ghost appearance again, right?"

"Sister, help me..."

Seeing that Fang Xu refused to take action, Yun Qing could only ask his sister for help.

But at this time, Yun Wan's face was already covered with tears. Looking at her brother's pleading eyes, the hand holding the sword trembled violently.

She shook her head frantically, her face full of pain.

"Yunqing, come back with us. I will definitely find a way to save you!"

"Yun Qing..."

Before she could finish her words, Yun Qing suddenly hugged her.

"Sister...live well."

"Dad and the Yun family are at odds. I can't help you with that..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed the sword in Yun Wan's hand and stabbed it into his heart.

"The river water is flowing so clear..." "Like the sweet smile of that girl..."

"The willow branches are swaying gently... like the girl... bending over with laughter..."

Lying on Yun Wan's shoulder, Yun Qing looked quietly at the sky in the distance. The carefree days of his childhood when he followed his father in Huangzhou City emerged before his eyes.

As he hummed a folk song popular in Huangzhou area, his eyes gradually lost their luster.

"Sister... take me home..."

The sound became smaller and smaller, and finally, he slowly closed his eyes.

“Yun Qing!!”

The sad cries echoed throughout the grassland!
Yun Wan hugged Yun Qing's body tightly and burst into tears.

……

Zhongshan Qi tribe.

Yun Wan held an urn in her arms and stood quietly beside Fang Xu.

In front of the two of them, the leader of Zhongshanqi, a sturdy man with gray hair, looked at Fang Xu and said, "Warrior from the East, thank you for saving Zhongshanqi's people."

Fang Xu waved his hand and said, "You are too polite, Chief Wulun."

"Warrior, Wu Lun represents Zhong Shanqi and hopes that you can stay here for a few more days so that the tribesmen can treat you two well." Wu Lun made an invitation.

Fang Xu looked at Yun Wan, who was gently stroking the urn beside him, and then rejected Wu Lun's invitation.

"Chief Wulun, we will meet again."

Seeing this, Wu Lun had no choice but to ask someone to bring two Cloud-Treading Horses over.

"Warrior, Zhongshanqi is rich in Cloud-Walking Colts. Your two Cloud-Walking Colts are too old. These are the two best Cloud-Walking Colts of Zhongshanqi. I am giving them to you."

Looking at the two shiny cloud-stepping horses in front of him, Fang Xu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Chief Wulun."

"Yun Wan, let's go."

The two men mounted their horses and ran straight to the east.

……

Zhongzhou, the General’s Mansion.

Zhao Wuji sat cross-legged in the secret room. In front of him, stood a huge meteorite emitting a faint red glow.

The red light emanated from the meteorite and quickly poured into Zhao Wuji's body.

At this moment, a large number of hideous and terrifying blood-red shadows appeared behind him!
If someone else saw this scene, they would be so scared that their legs would go weak.

However, these hideous and terrifying phantoms were gradually erased bit by bit by the red light emanating from Zhao Wuji.

It turned into the purest energy and was absorbed by his body.

As these hideous and terrifying figures gradually disappeared, only a figure wearing blood-red armor was left standing behind Zhao Wuji.

The blood-colored armored figure was surrounded by a monstrous murderous aura, which was continuously solidifying under the nourishment of the red light emitted by the meteorite.

at the same time.

Behind Li Cangwu deep in the imperial palace stood a golden shadow of the emperor!

This golden shadow of the emperor was continuously absorbing golden light spots from the jade carving in front of Li Cangwu.

In terms of solidity, the golden emperor's phantom is even better than the blood-colored armor phantom behind Zhao Wuji.

Ascension meeting, bamboo house in the back mountain.

Jiang Feng woke up from his meditation, looked into the distance and shook his head slightly.

"Whether it's relying on murderous aura or faith, it's ultimately a small path that can't be put on the table. You can't go very far."

"Master, Junior Brother Fang Xu is back." At this moment, a voice was heard from outside the door.

Jiang Feng came back to his senses, slowly stood up and said: "Let him come to see me."

The disciples outside the sect bowed and said, "Yes!"

Thatched hut in bamboo forest.

Fang Xu looked at Jiang Feng in front of him and bowed: "Greetings, Boss."

Jiang Feng nodded slightly and gestured, "Sit down."

Fang Xu sat down.

Jiang Feng looked at him and said, "I heard that you went to Zhongshanqi to carry out a mission?"

Fang Xu nodded: "Yes, we stopped a conspiracy of the Yanshen Cult."

Zhong Shanqi's mission was a bit difficult for him.

Yunqing is dead.

Yun Wan has not yet recovered from her shock.

"Zhong Shanqi is the new force that I am going to open up for the Ascension Society. Tell me what you think of Zhong Shanqi." Jiang Feng said.

Fang Xu's eyes fixed when he heard this.

He had previously guessed that Jiang Feng's target should be Zhong Shanqi.

"Zhongshanqi is a nomadic tribe similar to Muyun Country, with a population of several million. They live in relatively scattered areas, and most of them live by the water and grass."

"The martial arts of the entire tribe are very backward, and the strongest person in the tribe is only at the ninth level of martial arts master."

"To put it simply, barbaric and uncivilized."

Fang Xu shared his knowledge of the Zhongshan Qi tribe.

Jiang Feng nodded, slowly stood up and said: "The Muyun Kingdom was destroyed, the Yushan Kingdom was destroyed, and the remaining forces of the Shengxian Society only have the Yu Kingdom and the Fushan Kingdom."

"Now that the Yu Kingdom is in civil strife and the Fairy Island is under threat, it is urgent to open up new territories."

Fang Xu did not comment on this.

He also had no idea why Jiang Feng told him this.

Seeing Fang Xu didn't say anything, Jiang Feng slowly turned around and looked at him and said, "Practice well during this period. I have already instructed that you can enjoy all the resources of the Ascension Association at a 50% discount."

50% off! ?
Fang Xu stood up in astonishment and said, "Master, what price do I have to pay?"

Sudden care often has a purpose, and he doesn't want to be sold out at the critical moment.

Seeing his guarded look, Jiang Feng smiled: "Boy, what do you think I want from you?"

"I will allow you to use the resources of the Ascension Association at a 50% discount. I have only one request."

"Please take charge." Fang Xu bowed.

Jiang Feng sighed, and then said, "The Immortal Island encountered a crisis, and many of the stronger disciples of the Yu Kingdom branch were transferred away some time ago."

"I intend to give you the spot of this year's core disciple."

"But there is one thing. You must reach the level of Martial Honor during the core disciple assessment at the end of the year."

Reach Martial Master by the end of the year?

After hearing this, Fang Xu couldn't help but frown.

He is currently at the fifth level of Martial Master, and it will be somewhat difficult for him to reach the level of Martial Master by the end of the year.

The Xuanshui Soul gave him the power to force open the stone door, explore the acupoints, and construct a star map, but he could clearly feel that the power of the Xuanshui Soul was limited.

In other words, if he had enough star maps, he might be able to raise his realm to the seventh or even eighth level of Taoist martial artist in one go.

But reaching the ninth level of martial artist might be a bit difficult.

Furthermore, to break through from a martial artist to a martial master, one needs a great deal of time to hone one's skills and use the power of the star map to build a star platform.

"What? Are you not sure?" Seeing Fang Xu silent, Jiang Feng asked with a smile.

Fang Xu shook his head: "I just can't guarantee it. I'm afraid I'll disappoint you."

"It's okay, just practice with peace of mind." Jiang Feng comforted.

After returning to the Law Enforcement Hall from the bamboo house in the back mountain, Fang Xu went to see Chu Rendi and briefly told him what Jiang Feng had said to him.

Chu Rendi pondered for a moment and nodded, "Master also agrees with this."

"The situation is complicated now. Your strength is very strong, but your realm is always a shortcoming."

"Master was just about to tell you that you should try not to go out on missions during this period of time, and hurry up to improve your cultivation first."

Fang Xu nodded.

Since Chu Rendi also thinks this is feasible, then there is nothing for me to hesitate about.

His current realm is the fifth realm of martial artist, and he still has a Mirage Dragon Star Map in his hand that he has not used. Next he will only need three star maps.

I have about 300,000 contribution points.

According to Jiang Feng, he only needs half of the contribution points to use the resources of the Ascension Association.

Those 300,000 contribution points are enough for me to enter the Star Palace twice.

I think there shouldn't be any problem in comprehending three star maps twice.

After bidding farewell to Chu Rendi, Fang Xu returned to his residence and found that Yun Wan had already left.

Without thinking too much, he hung up the lantern at the door, preparing to use the Mirage Dragon Star Map to improve his cultivation to the sixth level of martial artist first.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Fang Xu closed his eyes and began to comprehend the Mirage Dragon Star Map in his sea of ​​consciousness.

After the additional spiritual attribute reached 140, his comprehension improved significantly.

It took only two days to fully understand it.

But the moment he comprehended the Mirage Dragon Star Map, Fang Xu suddenly discovered that the quality of the Mirage Dragon Star Map was only equivalent to the quality of the twelve star maps in the Star Palace.

His first five star maps were of the top twelve quality. Now that he was using a medium quality one, he found it a little hard to accept.

Slowly opening his eyes, Fang Xu paced around the room.

After thinking for a long time, I finally decided not to compromise!

If you want to use it, use the best one!

After turning around and packing up, he was about to head to the Star Palace when he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a painting hanging on the wall.

This painting was brought out by him from the fourth floor of the Tilan Mountain ruins. The person depicted in the painting was Qi Zha, the True Emperor of Chenxing, one of the Seven Stars Gods.

The sunlight shines through the crack in the door onto the portrait, creating twinkling spots of light.

"this painting……"

Staring at the portrait on the wall, Fang Xu suddenly discovered that this thing seemed to be a star map!
With this guess, he immediately studied it carefully.

The more I look at it, the more I feel that this painting is definitely a star map!
Amazing!

Someone could actually draw a star map on a painting! ?

Without even bothering to go to the Star Palace, Fang Xu directly took down the painting on the wall and studied it carefully.

Time passed day by day.

This contemplation took half a month.

Now in Fang Xu's sea of ​​consciousness, a huge star map is quietly floating!

The star map is so large that the image of Qi Guan constructed by it stands directly among billions of stars!

What level of star map is this?

Looking at the star map in front of him, Fang Xu was a little stunned!
With his current level of comprehension, it took him fifteen days to comprehend a star map. During this period, the number of stars contained in this star map made Fang Xu feel overwhelmed.

do not care!
Build it first! 1
Using the power of Qi and blood to build a divine bridge, Fang Xu prepared to construct the Chenxing star map in his body.

After determining the acupoints used in the star map, he directly used the power of the Mysterious Water Soul to force open the stone door of the sixth acupoint!
The protective mechanism of the Stone Gate World was also triggered, and a large number of sharp stone cones shot out from the Stone Gate!

The cracked stone door healed completely in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xu was stunned.

Fortunately, golden thunder appeared at this time. With the help of golden thunder, the stone gate in the acupoint space was successfully broken, and a huge amount of original energy emerged from the stone gate world.

Under the impact of this energy, the acupoints required by the Chenxing Star Map were opened instantly!

The star map was lit up, and the image of Qi Zu, the True Emperor of Chenxing, instantly emerged!

At this moment, a large amount of information poured into his sea of ​​consciousness, and Fang Xu's consciousness sank.

The boundless black ocean appeared again, and the body of consciousness was strolling in the black ocean. As if sensing something, Fang Xu slowly turned his body.

He was a tall man wearing a black gown.

The man stood quietly above the black ocean, his back to Fang Xu, his hands behind his back.

Fang Xu walked in slowly, came to the man's back and bowed, saying, "Senior, are you the True Emperor of Chenxing?"

The man didn't turn around, but just sighed and said, "I never thought that after all these years, there would still be someone in this world who could lead this place."

Fang Xu was a little confused.

"Senior Qizang, where is this?"

At this time, Qi Cang slowly turned around. His square and handsome face looked a little feminine, but it didn't make people feel disgusted.

Staring at Fang Xu, Qi Yan looked at him quietly for a moment and said with a faint smile: "So it was Yan Shen who left behind the inheritance."

"Yes, although the madman's ideas are a bit absurd, his insights into the path of cultivation are very profound."

"Little guy, I will give you a chance."

As soon as Qi Qiang finished speaking, Fang Xu felt the black ocean around him begin to boil!
The boundless black sea surged, and then formed a huge disc in front of him!

The black water froze, and the huge disc was floating quietly on the water like a piece of black jade.

"This is the foundation of the Way of Mysterious Water."

As if knowing that Fang Xu didn't understand what Daoji meant, Qi Yan added: "It's what you call the Star Platform in this world."

"The ninth level of the Dao foundation is used to nourish the spirit."

"Your world can only nurture a layer of Tao foundation. No wonder it is becoming increasingly decadent."

"I give you the Xuanshui Daoji. I look forward to meeting you one day in the future."

The black ocean disappeared, and Fang Xu's consciousness returned to his body.

The moment his consciousness entered his sea of ​​​​consciousness, he suddenly saw that there was indeed a round disk that looked like it was made of black jade floating in his sea of ​​​​consciousness!

The disc was covered with complicated patterns, and just looking at it made him feel dizzy.

"The ninth level of the Tao foundation is used to nourish the spirit..."

Qi Cang's words emerged in his mind, and Fang Xu's face instantly became solemn.

Qi Jian's statement undoubtedly overturned his understanding of martial arts practice.

In this world’s martial arts, after a martial artist reaches perfection, he will begin to connect the star maps in his body and use the power of the star maps to build a star platform within his body.

The star platform is nine feet high, with each foot representing a different realm.

When the Nine-foot Star Platform is completed, it will be the ninth level of Martial Honor.

The journey from the ninth level of Martial Honor to the great perfection of Martial Honor is a very dangerous process.

This process is also called the state of soul falling.

The meaning is very simple, which is to let your soul fall on the star platform.

Soul Fall tests whether a warrior's daily practice foundation is solid and stable.

If the power of the Star Platform is too weak, the Star Platform will collapse the moment the soul falls, and the soul will be immediately shattered by the destructive power of the Star Platform, resulting in death.

On the contrary, if the power of the Star Platform is too strong and the soul is not strong enough to endure, the moment the soul falls, the power of the Star Platform will directly tear the soul apart.

The star platform represents the physical body.

In short, if one wants to break through from the ninth level of Martial Honor to the perfection of Dao Martial Honor, the power of the soul and one's own cultivation must be strong enough and able to match each other.

But now Qi Qi told me that I should nurture my soul with the nine-level Tao foundation?

This……

Fang Xu was puzzled for a long time, and decided to ask his master first to see if his master knew about these things.

Law Enforcement Hall.

Chu Rendi was a little curious when he heard Fang Xu's question, "Didn't your master tell you that a martial artist can break through to the Martial Master level?"

Fang Xu smiled awkwardly: "Disciple knows, but I have a doubt in my heart."

Chu Rendi nodded and said, "Let's talk about it."

Fang Xu thought for a moment and said, "My disciple read in an ancient book that the great powers in ancient times seemed to be able to build multi-layered star platforms when the martial artists broke through to the Martial Honor level..."

"Where did you see that?"

Before Fang Xu could finish his words, Chu Rendi interrupted him with a serious expression.

This……

Fang Xu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Chu Rendi's reaction to be so big.

"Ugh!"

Looking at Fang Xu, Chu Rendi slowly said: "This is a forbidden method, abandoned by the martial arts of the world."

"In ancient times, martial arts masters did use multi-layered star platforms to nourish their souls. It is said that the martial masters of that time were very different from the martial masters of today."

"At that time, the one-realm-one-star platform for martial masters was not at all the same as the one-realm-one-foot platform today."

"I don't know the reason, but I can tell you that there is a senior on the fairy island of my Ascension Society."

"That senior is the third-level star platform."

Fang Xu was secretly shocked when he heard this, and quickly asked, "Has that senior broken through to the Yuanwu realm now?"

Chu Rendi shook his head: "He is dead."

"That senior's talent is close to that of a demon. When he was ten years old, he had already reached the Great Perfection of a Martial Master, and when he was fifteen, he reached the Ninth Realm of Martial Honor."

“After that, he didn’t know where he got the news that the martial arts masters in ancient times all had one star platform for each realm. At the age of seventeen, he cultivated to the great perfection of martial arts, but did not choose to fall soul. Instead, he built another star platform on the nine-foot star platform.”

"When he was thirty, the second star platform was completed, and he built the third one."

"But because of the existence of the first two star platforms, the difficulty of casting his third star platform soared to a terrifying level."

"For this, he exhausted his potential and ended up dying in depression."

After revealing this secret, Chu Rendi looked at Fang Xu with a serious expression and said, "I am telling you this because I want to tell you not to be impulsive."

"With your talent, it's only a matter of time before you break through to the Yuanwu realm."

"But if you learn from that senior, I'm afraid it will be difficult to break through even in your lifetime."

"Because once you start building the second-level star platform, it means that you are following the ancient path. If you cannot construct a nine-level star platform, you will not be able to nourish your spirit."

Fang Xu didn't say anything.

"Have you remembered what your master said?" Seeing that he seemed to be thinking about something, Chu Rendi asked sternly.

In this matter, he did not allow Fang Xu to think about the path taken by the ancient warriors.

"Disciple will remember this." Fang Xu cupped his hands.

After leaving the Law Enforcement Hall, Qi Cang's words were still lingering in his mind.

"The ninth level of Taoism is used to nourish the spirit!"

"No wonder the warriors in your world have fallen into decline."

"I give you the Xuanshui Daoji. I hope we can meet again in the future."

What realm is Qi Guan?
As one of the Seven Stars, he must be at least an immortal, right?
By cultivating my spirit on the Nine-foot Star Platform, can I reach the level of Qi Guan?

Questions popped up in his mind one after another, and Fang Xu suddenly felt that he should not have listened to his master Chu Rendi.

What the ancient powerful beings were able to do, I should be able to do as well.

Using the Nine-foot Star Platform to nourish the mind is obviously an opportunistic and lazy method.

If I really do it according to this method, then the moment I break through the great perfection of martial arts master, I will directly enter the realm of perfection of martial arts master.

After all, there is a nine-foot mysterious water star platform in his sea of ​​consciousness.

It is necessary to use the Nine-Layered Star Platform to nourish the spirit, otherwise wouldn’t it be a waste of the Xuanshui Dao Foundation given by Qi Cang?

Having made up his mind, Fang Xu immediately came to the Star Palace.

His current realm has reached the sixth level of martial artist. Next, he only needs to comprehend three more star maps to reach the ninth level of martial artist.

It is already July of summer, and there are only five months left until the core disciple assessment at the end of the year, so we have to hurry.

The mountain king guarding the Star Palace was gone. When Fang Xu arrived, he was stopped by two inner disciples.

Upon learning that Fang Xu was going to enter the Star Palace, one of the disciples immediately went to inform Jiang Feng.

After Jiang Feng arrived, Fang Xu directly paid the contribution points and then entered the Star Palace.

The last time he came in, he had already screened the twelve best-quality star maps. He had previously felt that some of the star maps were not suitable for him and had therefore abandoned them.

But if I want to break through quickly now, I can’t find other star maps to comprehend in a short period of time.

In the path of martial arts, all methods have the same origin. If you think about it carefully, it seems that there is no need to stick to the form of the technique.

Whether using a sword or a knife, a gun or a stick, once you reach a certain level, they are all interchangeable.

After coming in, he didn't waste any time and started to understand directly.

The first star map chosen this time is the one closest to you among the twelve top-grade star maps.

That is a divine sword!
The stars are the sword head, and the entire galaxy is the sword body!
Wherever the sharp edge passed, it seemed to be able to break the entire chaotic starry sky!

Fang Xu pondered it carefully.

After the additional spiritual attributes were improved, he suddenly found that he was much faster this time than last time.

Clang!
After meditating for an unknown period of time, a clear sound of a sword suddenly came from the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness!

Fang Xu slowly opened his eyes, and he did not ask himself how much time he had left.

I had already greeted Jiang Feng when I came in. If I exceeded the time limit, I shouldn't disturb him, as he would make up the contribution points later.

Continue to comprehend the second star map.

This time the one chosen was the giant turtle swimming in the galaxy.

He also comprehended the star map at an extremely fast speed.

After choosing the giant star turtle, Fang Xu hesitated for a moment and directly chose a green lantern star map.

After comprehending the three star maps, he stood up and left the Star Palace.

Outside the cave, Fang Xu looked at Jiang Feng who was waiting at the entrance of the cave and asked worriedly, "Master, how long did it take me this time?"

After his previous experience in the cliff palace, he is still traumatized.

"There's still one day left." Jiang Feng said with a smile, "It's a bit wasted."

One day left?

Fang Xu thought to himself, it can’t be wasted.

Because I no longer need a star map.

The sixth level of martial artist, plus the three star maps, all he needs to do now is to make an all-out effort, and he should be able to reach the ninth level of martial artist soon.

Having become a martial artist with nine special star maps, and nourishing his mind with the nine-level Taoist foundation, Fang Xu's heart could be said to be filled with great ambition at this moment.

He wanted to break the existing martial arts rules and find a way to the ancient times.
