He fixed the force-testing stone in a corner of the secret room and tested the strength of his left hand first.
Standing still, the center of gravity sank, the Qi and Blood force of the whole body advanced along the three sections of the waist, shoulders and arms, and his left fist hit the sensing surface of the force measuring stone. The force measuring stone lit up with a very bright light, and a line of numbers appeared on the surface: one hundred and three thousand catties.
Compared with the 72,000 jins at the Middle Stage of the Qi and Blood Realm, it has increased by more than 30,000 jins.
Then came the leg strength. He leaned his back against the wall, his left leg was independent, and he kicked out his right leg suddenly. He kicked the front of his foot on the force measuring stone. The moment the sole of his foot touched the sensing surface, he pushed forward half an inch, pouring all the power into it.
The numbers on the force measuring stone jumped for a moment and then stopped: 155,000 jins. Kick your right leg again, 158,000 jins. The left leg was slightly weaker, but it still reached 152,000 jins.
Qin Tiexin looked at these numbers and was silent for a breath. Yang Qingxue wrote very clearly in "Savage Mountain Leg Technique" that a qualified leg magician must have at least twice as much leg strength as his arm strength. Based on his current arm strength of 103,000 kilograms, double is 206,000 kilograms, which is still a little short of that.
However, leg strength is not his strong point. Before the breakthrough, the leg-arm strength ratio was only about 1.4 times, but now it has been shortened to 1.5 times, which is already considered progress.
Finally, he took out the Edgeless from the storage ring. The moment Edgeless fell into the palm of his hand, his wrist sank slightly for half a minute. The blade was still in its inconspicuous appearance. The back of the blade was covered with hammer marks left by blacksmithing, and the blade was dull.
He placed Edgeless horizontally on the sensing surface of the force measuring stone, and a number popped up on the display board: one hundred and three thousand jins!
Exactly consistent with the strength of his left fist, his strength has increased by 30,000, and Edgeless has also increased by 30,000. This knife has this characteristic after returning from the blood pool of Wind and Snow Pass. Whenever his strength increases, it will increase in weight simultaneously, no more, no less, which is exactly equal to his current ultimate strength.
Qin Tiexin holds Edgeless with one hand, and Qi Gang spreads along the arm to the handle of the knife, and then covers the blade from the handle. The red gold Qi Gang spreads on the dull blade, like a thin layer of gilding.
He swung a knife in the secret room, Heavy Mountain Saber Technique·Suppress the Mountain.
Edgeless was wrapped around Qi Gang and struck down. The blade made an extremely low muffled sound as it tore through the air. The air wave emitted by the blade hit the reinforcement pattern on the wall three feet away. The pattern lit up with a dazzling golden light that was more dazzling than any previous test. The stone slabs on the ground were shaken by the air wave. Several cracks appeared, and soon they slowly recovered under the influence of the pattern.
Qin Tiexin put away the knife and leaned Edgeless against the wall. In one night, he refined Red Luan Heart Flame and broke through the Late Qi and Blood Realm. His arm strength exceeded 100,000 kilograms, and his leg strength exceeded 150,000 kilograms. Qi Gang was first formed.
His overall combat strength once again jumped to a big level in just one night.
This breakthrough took two days, and there were still two days before Secret Realm Trial, which was enough for him to digest the new power.
He bent down, put the force measuring stone and the remaining half of the Iron-Spined Savage Bull back into the Storage Bag, and prepared to clean up the debris scattered on the ground.
When he finished packing and put on his new monk's robe, his fingers suddenly paused.
Below the collarbone, about two inches above the heart, there is a very faint mark.
He lowered his head and looked at it. It was a pink bird pattern the size of a pinky fingernail. The outline was exactly the same as the firebird shape that Red Luan Heart Flame had transformed into Fire of Life. The bird's wings were slightly spread, its posture was agile, and its color was a very light pink. You could hardly notice it unless you looked carefully.
He rubbed it with his fingers, but the mark didn't move at all. He tried to use Qi and Blood to explore again, and there was no abnormal Qi and Blood fluctuation. It didn't hurt, it didn't itch, it wasn't cold or hot, it was like a birthmark that was born there.
This should be the imprint left by Red Luan Heart Flame after it was integrated into Fire of Life. He couldn't figure out the details of this thing yet, but it seemed harmless to the body. He would study it later when he had the opportunity.
Qin Tiexin tied the monk's robe again and covered the faint pink bird mark under the fabric. He stood up, moved his left shoulder, picked up the iron rod in his hand, and pushed open the Mysterious Iron door.
Outside the secret room, the sky is just right.
He stayed in the secret room for two days and two nights, without sleeping in the meantime, refining Divergent Flame, devouring Demon Beast flesh and blood, breaking through realms, and testing his strength. After completing a series of things, he stood on the stone steps and was blown by the wind, only to feel a trace of exhaustion seeping out from the seams in his bones.
When he returned to the small courtyard, Ming'an was sitting cross-legged on the stone bench, holding a stack of paper in his hand, which was the scripture copied by the housekeeper.
Ming'an looked at it extremely seriously, opening and closing his lips, silently reciting the words on the paper, twisting the crooked string of beads in his hand.
Seeing Qin Tiexin pushing the door in, Ming'an's eyes lit up. He put the scriptures on the stone table and ran over. He looked him up and down first and made sure he had no new injuries before grinning with relief.
Qin Tiexin reached out and patted his head and asked him if the wooden fish was useful. Ming'an nodded vigorously and said that the sound was very nice when knocked, and it was brighter than the old wooden fish in the temple.
Qin Tiexin took out the three Buddhist scriptures Jade Slip from Storage Bag and placed them on the stone table.
"This is the scripture Jade Slip. When you grow up and can practice, you can read it with Divine Sense. Now let's take a look at what the housekeeper copied."
Ming'an held up three Jade Slips in both hands and looked at them over and over for a while. Unable to suppress the smile on his lips, he carefully placed the Jade Slips under his pillow.
"Then I have to eat well and grow up quickly!"
There was no time for more rest, and after tidying up a little, Qin Tiexin went out.
Today is the day when I made an appointment with Lin Chuan and the others to practice together as a team. In fact, they are already very skilled in cooperating. The main purpose is to let Qin Tiexin become familiar with their fighting methods and practice the team's cooperation.
Lin Chuan rented a martial arts venue in Cloud Ford Ward. The venue is located in a relatively quiet neighborhood and covers a large area. From the outside, it looks like an ordinary blue brick courtyard. Once inside, it is a completely different world.
The venue is about ten feet square, and the ground is paved with special bluish-gray spirit-absorbing stone slabs. The protective formations around it are denser than those in the Lin family's martial arts field. In the corners are several rows of weapon racks and several half-man-high iron boxes.
According to Lin Chuan, the protective array in this martial arts arena can withstand a full blow from Golden Core Early Stage without being broken. It is one of the few high-standard training venues in Cloud Ford Ward. It is billed by time and is expensive.
Qin Tiexin wanted to say that the expenses would be shared equally, but Xu Ying had already paid Spirit Stone in advance. Liu Suifeng shrugged beside him. "I'm used to it."
After the five people arrived, Lin Chuan started the first drill. The spiritual light array in the center of the venue lit up, and the three-headed Iron-Clawed Bear puppets of Foundation Establishment Peak Stage slowly rose from the underground machine Guanzhong. Their sharp claws glowed with cold light, and the ground shook slightly with every step they took.
