"It turns out that this is "qi"!"
Bai Zhou experiences this magical power that is constantly flowing in the body, and deeply realizes the huge changes in himself compared to the past.
Sword Qi, Saber Qi, Heng Ha Two Qi, Willpower... these are all "qi"!
After being promoted to Level 3 Extraordinary, you can exhale and hurt people, and you will be invincible within seven steps with your sword.
Seven steps away, Saber Qi is even more invincible!
In those adventure stories, it is also possible to get out of Novice Village and become a mature Adventurer.
... But these "qi" are essentially just manifestations of the essence in the human body.
In fact, "qi" has always been circulating invisible in the human body, promoting blood flow and regulating the balance of the human body.
They are the product of the combination of "human body" and "emotion", but they cannot be controlled by ordinary people, let alone released from the body.
Because it is related to emotions, an angry person in a desperate situation, or a being in a high state of mind, will often have more turbulent Qi than normal.
Occasionally I see some news. A thin mother lifts a car weighing several tons to rescue her child. A teacher stares at the collapsed floor with his back during the earthquake. A soldier is seriously injured but continues to fight until reinforcements arrive...
However, after completing these miracles, the person involved often falls to the ground from exhaustion or even loses his life.
This wonder of life of "living toward death" is the explosion of surging emotions that connects the human body's inner energy - "qi"!
It is also for this reason that extraordinary people must first polish their "body" and "heart" before they can control "qi".
The body is Wellspring of Life, the heart is Kindling Fuel, and the Qi is the water vapor emitted by Wellspring of Life.
If the well water is not full, there will be nothing to steam; if the fuel fire is not strong, there will be no heat to generate.
If one is not strong enough, the Qi leaving the body will hollow out or drain the body dry.
Back then [Van Gogh]'s [Starry Night] secret technique looked so weird and incredible...
But in fact, it is just an application of "Qi" after injecting spirituality into it.
Integrate "body" and "heart" to Body Refining Qi Transformation, and then inject your own spirituality to achieve the purpose of controlling Qi... Similar stories can often be seen in the extraordinary legends of Eastern Federation.
Historically, Eastern Federation extraordinary people have studied Qi very deeply. In ancient times, there were even rumors of Qi Devouring Pill Condensation's Great Extraordinary, which shows that they have gone a long way on the road of "Qi".
Of course, Western Federation also has a lot of research on Qi. There is even a magic school that specializes in studying "Qi Magic" and has developed many application methods for this invisible energy.
If we say that the East pays more attention to strengthening its own "qi" through inner cultivation and pursuing a certain balance;
Well, the West is better at becoming craftsmen of "Qi" through certain external media and Ritual, focusing on the application of Qi.
There is no difference between the two.
These Bai Zhou have all been told by Crow.
--But Bai Zhou haven't heard of any secret skills about "qi" that can make one's power explode exponentially.
What I have without others is rare.
Bai Zhou is originally Destined One, plus this set of top secret skills that can explode 1.5 times as soon as you get started...
If the current Bai Zhou meets [Van Gogh] again, Level 4 Extraordinary like Ordinary, he will definitely have the power to fight, and he will no longer have to be so embarrassed!
If arrangements are made properly in advance, it is not impossible to kill [Van Gogh]!
"...but not enough!"
Bai Zhou looked down at the time on the watch.
29:35!
Just First Form, he studied for five hours!
But in the next six hours, he still has two moves to learn!
Is it enough...?
Bai Zhou raised his head and looked at the patterns and characters on the wall again, with bright eyes.
Even if it's not enough, it must be enough!
Everything is difficult at the beginning, First Form, the most difficult threshold from level 2 to level 3 has been passed.
"I can do it."
Bai Zhou whispered softly, not sure who he was talking to.
"There are still people waiting for me to come back!"
In the empty secret room, of course only he could hear his voice.
But Bai Zhou lowered his head, as if talking to the Last Will who were slowly squirming on the ground.
Maybe...
With these quiet Withered Bones and Last Will, you can really hear the whispers of Bai Zhou.
Because at this moment, these Last Will who have taught Bai Zhou tirelessly are slowly moving closer to Bai Zhou.
It seems like everyone is encouraging Bai Zhou.
"Shua..."
The sound of a long knife cutting through the air sounded again in the secret room.
"Boom! Boom boom boom!"
This is the impact of the blade on the wall.
Invest your mind and immerse yourself in practice.
Level 3 [Adventurer]Bai Zhou, on the road again.
Blue Star surface.
Tinghai City underground, Branch 36 is still brightly lit late at night.
Major sat in front of his desk with a livid face.
His back was straight, his hands were clenched in front of his knees, and he was as obedient as a primary school student.
The voice of severe reprimand came from the video call on the computer in front of him:
"Did I say that you don't need to intervene in this matter?"
"Do you know that I have sent level 5 Feng Xingyuan to kill Bai Zhou?"
"But it was because of your nonsense that the movement attracted Bounty Hunter who was passing by, and made her focus on Feng Xingyuan who was about to attack Bai Zhou!"
The majestic face of the eldest brother Senhan, even when watching it in the video, is filled with a sense of suffocation:
"Because of you, the group lost one Level 5 Extraordinary, and that Bai Zhou is still safe and sound so far!"
"--What else can you do besides causing trouble!"
Major said nothing, just lowered his head and listened.
The hands on his knees were clenched tightly, and the veins on the backs of his hands were hideous, but he could only grit his teeth and say nothing.
Because speaking from objective facts...
His elder brother was right, it was because the female killer he sent made a noise that Feng Xingyuan was killed.
There was no way, both sides sent people at the same time, but neither side knew that the other side sent people.
Feng Xingyuan didn't fight with the female killer Black Warrior. They were already very professional and knew how to distinguish between friends and foes.
At least, if Black Warrior and the others discover Feng Xingyuan, they will definitely silence them...
"One last time! Don't interfere in this matter again!"
"Your only task now is to stabilize Supervision Team who is coming from the Special Management Department, and then give me a few years of good Body Cultivation keeping a low profile."
He glanced at Major who said nothing with disgust, "Big Brother" looked at him and made him angry:
"I'll take care of that Bai Zhou."
"Extraordinary people who are good at Ritual may be a little more difficult to meet at first sight, but after all, he himself is not strong enough, and the group has a way to deal with him."
"Remember! If you continue to do this nonsense, neither I nor you Second Brother will care about you anymore, all resources will no longer be available, and you will fend for yourself in the Special Management Department!"
"... Oh, by the way, don't go to my old man's place again in the next few years."
"Tinghai Luo Family, we don't need a son like this who slanders the family!"
Listening to the previous content, Major didn't say a word or react.
But after hearing the last two sentences, Major suddenly raised his head!
He looked at the big brother in the video with wide eyes, breathing heavily and his eyes were red.
But when the elder brother faced Major's reaction, he just glared:
"Do you have any opinion?"
"Didn't my words make it clear enough?"
"... Got it."
In the end, Major just gave this answer in a muffled voice.
"..."
After the video call was turned off, the locked office fell into a long silence.
This time, Major neither broke anything nor called the new secretary to come over to vent.
Leaning on the leather office chair, Major slowly rubbed his brows, thinking seriously.
In the past, he was angry because he always felt that Bai Zhou was just a bug-like little person after all.
Being repeatedly provoked by such people, he will naturally be indignant at the incompetence of his subordinates.
But now, he feels that he can admit that the mysterious origin of Bai Zhou may be worthy of his attention and equal treatment.
Because it has been proven many times that although Bai Zhou himself is not strong, he is indeed a good Ritualist.
Such a rare existence should enjoy a good status in Extraordinary World.
... but success is also Ritualist, and failure is also Ritualist.
Each Ritualist requires a lot of resources for experimentation, and Purple Thorn Group lacks these the most, so Purple Thorn Group never lacks Ritual Master.
The counter-curse of Explosion Ritual was provided to him by Purple Thorn Group and Ritual Master.
Therefore, since Purple Thorn Group takes action, all Ritual advantages of Bai Zhou will naturally be suppressed one by one.
The world of extraordinary people is, after all, a world of Power Belongs to Oneself...
The biggest weakness of Bai Zhou is that his own strength is too weak!
After these few fights, Major has almost figured out that Bai Zhou is at best Level 3 Extraordinary.
In a head-to-head fight, just two Black Warrior can suppress it, and Level 4 Extraordinary can beat Bai Zhou while hanging up.
Obviously, this shortcoming cannot be eliminated by Bai Zhou in a short period of time, and this will become his most fatal breakthrough.
"... Leave it to them."
Although there is some anger, looking at the current situation, letting the elder brother deal with Bai Zhou and waiting for the arrival of good news is the best path that Major can choose.
Purple Thorn Group takes action, and there is no reason to miss.
Just like this time, Feng Xingyuan would never have missed...
In contrast, the current Major has more important things to worry about.
--Reflection Ruins Realm!
I heard that Yuanmeng Middle School of the Reflection Ruins Realm rioted.
Today Disaster Prevention Response Investigation Agency has surrounded the area, and tomorrow we will launch an exploration and clearing campaign.
The things inside are very important to Major, and they cannot be seen in the light no matter what!
Even Purple Thorn Group knows nothing about everything there!
But...
Why?
Why the sudden riot?
Major is puzzled, obviously it shouldn't be at this time.
It's early... too early.
The successive changes have caused him to lose his sense of control over the development of things.
For the first time in many years, he had an unknown feeling about the future.
Even... a little bit of unspeakable fear.
This fear comes from the uneasiness of not being able to control one's own destiny. What a "big man" like him hates most is the feeling that things are running out of control.
"It seems that the plan can only be advanced."
He has no choice.
Thinking like this, Major slowly stood up and went to the bathroom nearby.
He thought of what his elder brother said, Purple Thorn Group lost Level 5 Extraordinary.
"Level 5? Extraordinary? Ha..."
He sneered twice disdainfully.
Summer insects cannot speak of ice.
None of them understand how great the cause they want to do is.
They don't even know what they are about to become...
"It's almost there."
Youyou Luming, Gu Se Chui Sheng.
Who can know his heart?
It's just... suddenly forced to plan ahead, how many risks will there be?
Major Not sure.
With a faint sigh, Major stopped at the sink.
The sound of water gurgling, the cool pure water with bubbles, was held in hands to wash the face.
Major, who had regained his energy, suddenly thought of it again.
... If you have Moon God's Tear in hand and can get Moon God's Blessing, the risks involved will be greatly reduced.
Sometimes, a small reduction in risk can make a world of difference in the final result!
"Auction!"
Major gritted his teeth, obviously thinking of someone who was hiding his head and tail, and whose identity is still unknown.
"Clatter..."
The water flowing from the faucet stopped abruptly.
Raising his head, Major looked at Mirror Self.
The long hair on his forehead was dripping wet, and an invisible line ran straight from the center of his forehead to his chin, dividing the face in the mirror into two completely different halves.
Half of the man has a fierce appearance, with Major's own facial features, but with sinister scarlet lines spreading across his cheeks, like an angry glare Demon.
The other half has a divine female appearance, with compassionate eyebrows and deep and quiet eyes, like a goddess observing the world.
Half devil, half god, half man and half woman.
One is angry and one is calm, one is sad and one is happy.
A picture of boundless evil appeared in the mirror.
A strange look at Major in reality.
Half of the woman's lips were slightly raised, revealing a faint compassionate smile.
The lips moved, and an ethereal and clean voice came faintly:
"You are uneasy..."
But in the next moment--
The other half of Male's mouth immediately opened and roared, and a rough voice retorted sharply, as if coming from the abyss of blasphemy:
"I'm just excited!"
"--It's restless excitement!"
The water vapor on the mirror slowly dripped down, blurring the clear boundaries of the face in the mirror.
"Stab" sound!
The lights in the office flickered and swayed for no reason.
The fierce and calm eyes in the mirror were slightly narrowed at the same time, as if they were sharing a deep and dark secret.
Finally, the eyes were covered.
Because Major is wearing sunglasses.
The face in the mirror also changed back to the normal appearance of Major.
"If it works..."
He looked at Mirror Self calmly and said in a low voice:
"--I will settle everything!"
Not long after, Major was reported by the secretary and walked out of the office.
In Meeting Room, Supervision Team is very lively, as if they are discussing something enthusiastically.
"What! Bureau of Anomalous Investigation Wanted Poster about Old Toad doesn't have much money at all?"
"They will award Second Class Tinghai Good Citizen Medal? And verbal awards?"
"What do I need a medal for?"
"Yes." Supervision Team nodded seriously, empathizing:
"They Bureau of Anomalous Investigation have always been stingy. How else do they deserve their low reputation?"
"Why? I don't understand--"
Gem Witch asked in an angry voice, which could be heard even standing outside Meeting Room.
"Big loss! Big loss now..."
"Da."
Major, who had just opened the door and walked in, was stunned for a moment after hearing their discussion, and was thinking about something Old Toad...
"Major!"
Seeing Major walking in, Gem Witch's eyes lit up:
"Bureau of Anomalous Investigation is a wanted criminal. Are you, Special Management Department, interested?"
"In this case, the credit should go to you, right?"
"I just came back from going out and killed a Wanted criminal named Feng Xingyuan. Look..."
Major:"...?"
Who? Feng Xingyuan?!
Did you kill him?
Looking at the enthusiastic [Gem Witch] in front of him.
Major suddenly fell silent.
Co-author...
I just got scolded like crazy. Is it because of you?
--You still have the nerve to ask me for money?
Deep Ruins Realm.
The secret room in the Divine Hall is shaking endlessly.
"Boom! Boom boom boom!"
Traces of scorched black marks appeared on the wall.
It can be clearly distinguished that these traces are gradually deepening.
Bai Zhou is making rapid progress.
The number on the watch shows 33:27.
There are only more than two hours left before Bai Zhou's "deadline" arrives.
Fortunately, with the follow-up of this set of secret skills, the more you learn, the better you get. Bai Zhou seems to have found a learning trick and is able to reach a thousand miles in an instant.
Coupled with the guidance of Last Will from previous geniuses, Bai Zhou's growth astonished even himself.
He was so immersed in this feeling of rapid progress that he forgot the passage of time.
"It's just a little bit off, just a little bit off... what is it?"
"Yes..."
Suddenly.
Bai Zhou, who had been practicing hard, stopped what he was doing and his eyes were confused.
But deep in his mind, there were 27 hot and powerful suns, slowly merging into three Flowing Fire sharp long knives.
In the end, these three long knives with flowing and billowing flames finally merged into one.
"Boom!"
A round of White Sun arises from the mind of Bai Zhou.
As the two hundred and forty-three complex Patterned Figures danced and merged in the depths of his mind, Bai Zhou suddenly had a realization, and a certain obstacle that had been seen in the fog suddenly became clear.
There was a "bang" sound in my ears!
The final bottleneck is broken.
"<Basic Nine Slashes>First Three Forms..."
"It turns out that Three Slashes is just a knife!"
Comprehensive understanding.
At this point, all the secret skills carved on the wall have been mastered by Bai Zhou!
As expected by Bai Zhou, after completing the cultivation, his control of "qi" has reached its peak, standing at the pinnacle of Level 3 [Adventurer].
If there is a follow-up secret skill, he may even have a chance to hit level 4 on the spot!
"It's time."
Bai Zhou looked at the wall in front of him that had been hit hundreds or thousands of times, took a deep breath, and suppressed the excitement in his heart.
"Qiang" sound.
Sheath the sword.
At this moment, in the quiet secret room, all the scarlet Last Will stopped squirming.
Withered Bones everywhere seemed to be watching the back of Bai Zhou quietly and expectantly.
"..."
Bai Zhou looked at Last Will on the ground, and looked at the dark eye sockets of Withered Bones.
Then, without saying a word, he nodded slowly, his clear eyes shining.
Bai Zhou knows what Last Will and Withered Bones are looking forward to.
The expectations that have lasted for countless years are carried on his shoulders.
Someone has to break down this wall.
Slowly looking away, Bai Zhou was immersed in his mind and his eyes became focused.
When there was nothing else to focus on, his fingertips pressed Purple Gold Horse Saber on his waist.
Aiming at the wall in front of him, his posture seemed casual, and he adjusted his breathing rhythm.
A certain paragraph of Last Will came to Bai Zhou's mind:
[Breathing may be the key... focus on the end of exhalation, burst out in an instant, concentrate a little, and reach the peak!]
Now, Bai Zhou can answer that senior who was also a genius.
His guess was correct.
... At least, part of it is right.
"Clatter!"
Following a certain breathing rhythm, Bai Zhou seemed to hear the sound of a river flowing in his ears.
That's...
The gushing Saber Qi was like a river flowing through his body.
Then, at a certain breathing node, Bai Zhou suddenly cut off the river!
"Buzz!!!"
Something sounded faintly inside Bai Zhou's body.
The windbreaker on his body fluttered on its own despite the lack of wind.
Saber Qi is blocked, Bai Zhou is full of Qi, as if Flood is accumulating in front of the dam.
When Bai Zhou's whole body was so swollen and painful, it felt as if he had been struck by a thousand knives.
He changed his breathing rhythm and took advantage of the situation to draw the sword out of its sheath--
"Qiang!"
Then, release the flood!
With just the initial move, most of Bai Zhou's spirituality was drawn out.
Finally, all the spirituality in his body disappeared with the wave of the saber in his hand.
Be more focused!
Reach the pinnacle!
Bai Zhou faced the wall and slashed with all his strength!
One Saber Qi slashed out, followed by two and three.
The knives are connected and layered without any breathing space.
It was as if Great River fell from the sky, flowing in an endless stream.
But at the end of the river, I saw a Pure White Sun rising suddenly.
"Cut!"
"Cut, chop, chop, chop!"
It is equal to Bai Zhou's full power explosion and an additional 4.5 times of incredible slashes--
Hit hard on the impenetrable wall.
The next moment.
"Boom!"
The wall of the secret room where Bai Zhou had been trapped for nearly ten hours collapsed.
--Bai Zhou, break the barrier!
