There are still twenty-five days until the Star Selection written test.

Qin Tiexin woke up at the first moment of the ugly moment. On the bed next to him, Ming'an was still curled up against the wall. The quilt covered half of his face, only a small piece of the back of his head and messy hair were exposed. Qin Tiexin didn't light the lamp, gently opened the door and walked into the patio.

From Chou time to Yin time, it is his Qi Refining time.

He sat cross-legged in the center of the patio, took out Five Phases Conversion Pearl from the storage ring and held it in the palm of his left hand. Ten Thousand Stars City Spiritual Qi is much more abundant than Wind and Snow Pass. The Spiritual Qi concentration of Purple Jade Ward is second only to the Imperial City in the city. Five Phases Conversion Pearl is His palms were slightly heated, and he inhaled the Spiritual Qi in the surrounding air, which was mainly composed of wood and earth attributes, and transformed it into Spiritual Qi with the attributes of gold, water, and fire in the beads, and then transferred into his Dantian.

Among Dantian, nine Primordial Qi Vortex have grown to their peak. Each one is the size of a fist, slowly rotating in Dantian, and connected to each other by extremely thin spiritual power threads, forming a stable nine-house pattern.

For an ordinary Peak of Qi Refining monk, if the nine cyclones were filled to this extent, the Dantian would have been unbearably bulging.

But Qin Tiexin doesn't feel this way yet.

The enhancement effect of Body Refining on Dantian was greater than he expected. After the Middle Stage of the Qi and Blood Realm, his physical strength, meridians toughness, and Dantian capacity all jumped up. Although the nine cyclones were full, there was still room in the Dantian wall, and he could continue to inhale Spiritual Qi.

Since Dantian can still accommodate Spiritual Qi, then don't worry about Foundation Establishment and lay a thicker foundation. The more solid the foundation is in the Qi Refining stage, the wider the Qi sea will be after Foundation Establishment, and the stronger the foundation will be in the subsequent stages. This principle is clearly written in "Primordial Unity Instruction".

When the time comes, Qin Tiexin finishes the work on time.

He pulled out half a head of Iron-Horned Ox from Storage Bag, which he bought a few days ago. When he was heading from the teahouse to the city gate that day, he stopped by a few stalls set up by Rogue Cultivator, and happened to meet a hunter selling Demon Beast materials. Iron-Horned Ox is the Demon Beast of Foundation Establishment Early Stage. The meat is rough but better than Qi and Blood, which is abundant and the price is reasonable. He packed all the Iron-Horned Ox meat at the hunting stall and picked out a few bundles of spiritual grass and spiritual fruits.

Materials for refining weapons are expensive in the Tiannan Region, but spiritual grass and spiritual fruits are really cheap. The same bundle of fifty-year-old red blood grass would cost fifteen spiritual stones in Fengxue Pass, but only five here. A few golden thread ginseng plants used to assist in tempering Qi and blood would cost at least dozens of spiritual stones in the Qingxuan Territory. He bought a bunch at a street stall for less than twenty spiritual stones.

Qin Tiexin chopped the Iron-Horned Ox leg meat into pieces and put it into the cauldron, then sprinkled a handful of Crimson Blood Grass and three Golden Thread Spirit Ginseng plants. The cauldron lid was closed, the Heating Spirit Rune on the cauldron lit up with dark red light, and the Spiritual Qi membrane at the mouth of the cauldron emerged automatically, locking all the essence inside the cauldron.

After a stick of incense, the lid of the cauldron was lifted, and the rich aroma of flesh, flesh, essence and medicine filled the whole patio. Qin Tiexin picked up the beef that was stewed in the cauldron and chewed it one bite at a time. The bones and meat melted between the teeth, and the hot soup was poured down the throat into the stomach. Fire of Life's heart beat suddenly, carrying the flesh, flesh, essence and medicinal power, pouring into the blood vessels, and brushing the whole body along the meridians.

After breaking through the Middle Stage of the Qi and Blood Realm, his food intake and refining speed increased a lot. In the past, half a head of Iron-Horned Ox was enough for him to eat for two meals, but now one meal was enough. He chewed the last leg bone and swallowed it, and all the pores in his body were covered. The head opens, evaporating light red hot air. Under the skin, dark golden lines are looming with the beating of Fire of Life, extending outward from the heart along the blood vessels, and outline the faint golden lines on the chest and left arm.

He closed his eyes and let Fire of Life slowly refine this huge energy into his blood. The level of refining of Essence Blood in his body increased, but it was still a long way from the Late Qi and Blood Realm.

At this time, Qin Tiexin received True Fire Furnace Scripture and stood in the center of the patio.

Heavy Savage Chop.

He took a deep breath, placed his left foot firmly on the ground, and swung his right leg up from the bottom. The heel drew an arc in the air, and the whole body was in a straight line. The heel fell heavily downward. The heel made a sonic explosion in the air and hit the stone target standing in the corner of the practice room. A circle of spiderweb-like cracks exploded on the surface of the stone target, and gravel flew.

The leg height finally reached the standard.

After practicing for so many days, I finally made a breakthrough in my flexibility problem. Even though I have done it more times, the muscles on the back of my thigh still hurt when I lift up, and my supporting leg still shakes slightly when I fall down, but it is no longer as close as two inches to the point of being unable to get up.

Qin Tiexin retracted his legs, breathed evenly, and did three more chops. Every time his heel landed, a piece of gravel exploded on the stone target. He stared at the cracks on the stone target for a moment, silently adjusted the angle of exertion in his mind, turned around, walked to the other side of the patio, and started practicing Stone-Shattering Staff Technique.

At noon, he slammed the iron rod on the ground and began to practice the three Buddhist martial arts.

Arhat Fist's fist energy is condensed much faster than before, and the Arhat facial pattern on the fist surface is so clear that even the veins on the forehead can be carved out. Prajna Palm's palm prints can be condensed without being sent out, and can be sent and received freely. Lion's Roar He still only dared to use 20% of his strength. The courtyard was too small. If he shouted with all his strength, he would probably collapse the courtyard wall. Stone-Shattering Staff Technique also practiced it well. Although this stick technique was of average quality, it was simple and direct. After a few moves, he already had muscle memory.

The last hour of the day is Qin Tiexin the most difficult period of the day.

He moved the futon to the stone table and took out two Jade Slip from his arms. One was a set of written test questions given by Chen Xi. The three thousand questions covered eight categories and the amount of questions was huge. The other was a Divine Sense training Jade Slip given by True Person Zhou Heng. He only turned through the first few pages on the way and finally had time to study formally today.

True Person Zhou Heng's secret method gave him a powerful start at the beginning.

"Divine Sense is like a needle. Divide and prick, there are many but not chaos."

To put it bluntly, it is to split your Divine Sense into multiple strands, each strand operates independently and processes different information at the same time. It sounds simple, but doing it is completely another matter.

Qin Tiexin Put Divine Sense into the written test question Jade Slip. According to the basic method introduced in True Person Zhou Heng, split Divine Sense into two parts and read two lines of words at the same time.

The first breath was fine, but by the second breath, it felt like someone had dug a nail into my temple, and I had a splitting headache.

He gritted his teeth and held on for ten breaths. His eyes began to blur, and a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Reading the two lines at the same time was equivalent to dividing his brain into two areas that did not interfere with each other, each reading and remembering independently.

This usage is completely different from his Divine Sense combat attack. The Divine Sense attack is to condense Divine Sense into one force and release it with all its strength. However, this usage is like opening two lines in the mind at the same time. Each line is running at full strength. They must not interfere with each other and must be combined together in the end.

After ten breaths, he exited Divine Sense, closed his eyes and gasped for a long time. His mind felt like a piece of red-hot iron was stuffed into it, buzzing. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and inserted Divine Sense again.

Come again.
