mighty sky

() Tianquan Prefecture, in the Palace of the State Lord.

After dealing with the important reports hoarded recently, Li Qingyao set his sights on his butler.

"Where is Qinghui, is there any news?"

"Report to Master, not yet."

Frowning slightly, Li Qingyao said slowly: "Could it be that the Changkong family did something secretly?"

"Probably not." Shaking his head, the steward said: "The second master sent back the news that Chang Kong's family was able to kill Zhang Yekong's people, and now only Changkong Yuhong and his father are in Laiyang City. People, they all stayed in the main city of Laiyang City and never left."

"Is it."

Looking up, his gaze drifted into the distance. After a while, Li Qingyao's expression became a little surprised, "It's been almost half a year, where did that kid go? Could it be that someone killed him?"

Shaking his head and putting aside Zhang Yekong's question, Li Qingyao looked at the butler, "How is the preparation for the state election competition? Are the personnel from the major cities due? How many people on the dragon and tiger list have come?"

"Dragon and Tiger List, there are 390 people on the Dragon List, and there are 320 people."

"Among them, there are 80 people in the top [-], and [-] people in the top ten."

"Hubang, 1000 people, has reached 620 people."

"The big cities, Dongfeng, Hongyan, Shihua, etc. are ranked in the top six. The big cities closest to Tianquan State have already entered Tianquan State one after another. The total number of people is close to 30, and the number of contestants is close to 5."

"Then the people from the other big cities are already on their way, but because the journey is relatively long, it will take two months at the latest."

"Yeah." Nodding his head and rubbing the center of his brow, Li Qingyao once again focused on the things that had been dealt with by his hundreds of subordinates and sorted by the housekeeper, but there were still so many things that he couldn't finish them, and he felt a little headache.

The state election contest once every 50 years, and the seven-state genius battle once every 50 years.

It can be said that today's Beiguo Continent is already the busiest stage.

"I'm waiting for ten days, only ten days. If there is any news about that kid, let Qinghui come back."

He took a deep breath, without the help of his younger brother, let alone the seven-state talent competition, even the local competition, he would not be able to handle it.

Although geniuses are rare, they are not yet desperate.

"Yes!" Nodded, as Li Qingyao's butler, he also looked helpless. This is not the first time it has been held, but every time this time comes, no matter how many people are prepared, there are still so many things that make people headache.

Especially in the years after the Northern Kingdom was ruled, there were no wars in the seven major states, and the population had already begun to explode.

From the first huge talent competition with a total of less than 3000 people, to now, there are close to more than [-] contestants in one state, which is simply a headache.

His gaze returned to Laiyang City, [-] kilometers away, in a sea of ​​trees covering hundreds of kilometers.

Under the mountain peak that seemed to have been cut out of a corner by something, beside the pool.

Zhang Yekong, who started the five elements and nine exercises, was lying on the ground sweating like a dead dog.

Pain, pain to the bone marrow, pain to the soul.

Heart-piercing, liver and gallbladder split.

If the Nine Alchemy of the innate first rank only made Zhang Yekong grin in pain, then the second rank would definitely be sweating profusely and rolling all over the floor.

The mental value of 2800, plus most of the consciousness, sank into the sea of ​​consciousness.

The severe pain caused by Jiulian is still extremely astonishing.

However, because of his comprehension of sword techniques, Zhang Yekong, who has mastered the heart like a knife, persisted through the nine trainings despite the difficulties.

Lying on the ground without grace, Zhang Yekong twitched all over.

In fact, the body training of the second grade didn't hurt much, it was just because it took too long that Zhang Yekong was mentally exhausted.

One practice, three days.

Second practice, two days.

Three exercises, one day.

After the four refinements, it takes half a day.

That is to say, it took a total of nine days for Zhang Yekong to complete the nine exercises.

Compared with the underground of Laiyang City, Zhang Yekong did nine exercises, but it only took a few hours.

After eating another elixir, it took nearly half a day for Zhang Yekong to replenish the consumed spirit and true energy.

Nine refinements, completed.

What to do now is to complete the compression and advance to the third grade.

Without advancing immediately, Zhang Yekong lay on the ground, closed his eyes, and fell asleep in an instant.

The recovery of mental strength does not mean the recovery of mental strength.

Zhang Yekong, who has cultivated to this level, is no different than his previous practice of sword technique and sword intent.

Soon day and night, fleeting.

Opening his eyes, he walked to the side of the pool, hugged a lot of water with his true energy, and Zhang Yekong took a shower happily.

After eating a few elixir fruits that tasted similar to fruit, Zhang Yekong got down cross-legged and began preparations for advanced stages.

The five elements of true energy are mobilized, the five elements of the dantian are in operation, the sea of ​​​​qi is enriched, and the spirit is full.

Opening his eyes, Zhang Yekong took a long breath and began to advance.

Compress, compress, continue to compress.

At this moment, the mental power of 2800 skyrocketed without any scruples, and Zhang Yekong began to frantically compress his true energy.

Nine hundred drops are compressed into eight hundred, eight hundred into seven hundred, and seven hundred into six hundred.

The five-element dantian was constantly running, absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, and crazily replenishing the inner qi in Zhang Yekong's body that had been consumed due to intense compression.

A day passed quickly.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Yekong opened his eyes, quickly took out a panacea from the storage bag, and ate it.

At the same time, there was a wry smile on the corner of his mouth.

It feels very easy to advance from the first product to the second product.

From the second rank to the third rank, Zhang Yekong discovered that the difficulty had suddenly increased by nearly a hundred times.

Especially the consumption of mental power is even more astonishing.

Every time it is compressed, nearly one-tenth of Zhang Yekong's mental power is consumed.

And the compression process is equally astonishing, one compression almost takes several hours to complete.

Up to now, Zhang Yekong has reached a limit even if he keeps meditating in the sea of ​​consciousness and constantly replenishing the five elements dantian.

After taking a elixir, Zhang Yekong's mental strength and true energy in his body were immediately restored to the maximum.

The compression process starts again.

Ninety drops.

It took a whole day and one night for Zhang Yekong to complete the procedure of compressing nine hundred drops into ninety drops.

can't stop.

Taking a breath, Zhang Yekong didn't dare to stop the steps of compression, otherwise, once he stopped, his body would get used to this level of true qi, and he would start to advance.

Ninety drops of compress, go.

At eighty drops, the day passes.

Seventy drops, Zhang Yekong took another pill.

Sixty drops, a total of seven days passed.

Fifty drops, Zhang Yekong took two elixirs, which took as much as fifteen days.

The further you get to the back, the more time you will need, and the more panacea you will eat.

Finally, on the 30th day, Zhang Yekong successfully compressed his true energy to nine drops.

After taking a breath and swallowing nearly five pills at once, Zhang Yekong started to compress further, compressing nine drops into one drop.

Shrinking, shrinking, shrinking.

At this point, Zhang Yekong was struggling a bit.

Even if it is as much as 2800 mental power, it seems that it is not enough, and it is impossible to compress the nine drops of five elements true energy.

No matter how powerful it is, the Five Elements True Qi becomes extremely stubborn and doesn't matter at all.

One day, two days, three days.

Soon, the efficacy of the five elixirs reached its limit, and Zhang Yekong's mental strength and true energy began to be consumed.

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Yekong opened his eyes, and the sharpness erupted in his eyes at this moment.

Compress me!

With a loud shout, Zhang Yekong used the sword intent that he had only comprehended not long ago for the first time, and began to compress the true energy in his body.

Boom!

Zhang Yekong's seven orifices spurted blood at the same time as if struck by lightning, and his internal organs seemed to have been hit hard.

At this moment, the originally stubborn five-element zhenqi was slightly shaken by the domineering suppression of the sword intent, and finally began to fuse.

Along with the compression again, Zhang Yekong was a little surprised to find that the true energy that seemed to be like water had become real with this compression.

No, it should not be said to be water, but a thicker liquid.

It was three points thicker than fresh blood.

And with the emergence of this true energy, Zhang Yekong's whole body was stirred up, and his beard and hair were stretched.

Boom!

There was a thunder on the flat ground, and the spiritual energy in the sky poured down, rushing towards Zhang Yekong's body frantically.

boom!boom!boom!

At this moment, the peaceful and serene Xanadu completely changed its appearance. Countless auras, compared to when the first rank advanced to the second rank, were countless times more aura, sweeping in.

The muscles all over his body, at this moment, seemed to be blown up like a ball, constantly bulging, recovering, bulging, recovering.

The body is growing, the physique is getting stronger, and the mental power is becoming more solid.

call!

With one breath, Zhang Yekong exhaled visible white air from his nostrils, and a five-color flower with nine petals ignited and rose above his head.

Three grades, success.

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Zhang Yekong opened his eyes. So far, it took 130 five days.

The sword technique has been completed, the sword intent has been completed, advanced to the third rank.

This time, the mission of hiding and living in seclusion is completely completed here.

In the storage bag, Zhang Yekong slowly stood up from the ground as the last breath-holding talisman disappeared.

It's time to leave.

Second watch, ask for tickets, ask for favorites! ! !
