After drinking the water, Qin Tiexin rearranged the stakes.

This time, he did not rush to guide the earth's energy. He adjusted his breathing first, and let his breath sink to Dantian, so that the whole person could calm down. There was no need to rush when it came to standing. Jade Slip made it very clear that if the mind is not calm, the roots are not deep, the heart is not strong, and the strength is unstable.

When he used to practice martial arts, he could practice a single movement thousands of times. The most important thing he needed in his stance was patience.

Until noon, the earth's energy was still there. Sometimes I could clearly feel a warm current coming from the soles of my feet, and then dissipated just two inches up. Sometimes I couldn't feel anything, only the solid feeling of the soles of my feet pressing against the ground.

He was not in a hurry and did not stop until he felt a little hungry. He ate something with Ming'an and took two elixirs. The elixirs that Xu Ying purchased had been delivered. It must be said that the quality and effect of the elixirs were much better than those of Azure Xuan Region. A stream of warm air surged throughout his body, and his fatigue was relieved a lot.

I continued to stand in the afternoon until dark.

When I finished the exercise, my legs were sore and swollen, as if they were filled with lead, and I was shaking when I walked. In the evening, I simmered a pot of Demon Beast meat, and after eating it, I practiced "True Fire Furnace Scripture".

Maybe it's because Qi and Blood consumes a lot of energy, but Qin Tiexin feels like it absorbs Qi and Blood faster.

The next morning, things were a little different.

He stood still, adjusted his breath, and visualized as usual. The earth's energy still seeped in from the spring.

Yesterday, he always wanted to catch that breath, but today he only focused on breathing. Inhaling, the earth energy surges up. Exhale, the roots sink down. Between inhalations and exhalations, the earth energy naturally flows along the soles of the feet and into the calves.

He suddenly understood that breathing must match the rhythm of the earth's energy, neither too fast nor too slow. The earth's energy has its own rhythm, and people can only follow it.

After finding this trick, the efficiency of zhanzhuang immediately changed.

The earth energy penetrated into the spring in strands, along the inside of the legs to the knees, and then slowly sank into Dantian. The two legs seemed to be stepping in warm water, warm and heavy, very real.

On the third day, the first layer Earth Wheel came out.

Qin Tiexin was standing when he suddenly felt a shock under his feet, and then, a very faint golden halo floated from the soles of his feet, sticking to the ground and shining slightly.

Only he could sense this halo. With the naked eye, there was nothing. But he knew it was there, like a thin halo around his feet.

The halo is turning slowly, very slowly. Every time it turns, a force seeps in from the earth and spreads throughout the body along the soles of the feet.

He kept the frame still and took in the feeling.

After a few dozen breaths, the halo stabilized and no longer drifted away. Qin Tiexin tried to make a fist, and the muscles on his forearm tensed up. The increase in strength was less than 10%. The change was not big, but it could be noticed.

The fourth day, the second floor.

Day five, third floor.

Day six, fourth floor.

For each level of condensation, you need to stand for ten breaths. In theory, nine levels can be condensed with 90 breaths, but in practice it is very difficult. The longer you stand, the harder it is to stabilize your mind.

It was fine at first, but when he reached the fifth level, Earth Wheel suddenly trembled, and the golden light dispersed and disappeared. The feeling of rooting under his feet was broken, and his body was momentarily weightless, and he almost lost his balance.

Qin Tiexin Recalling carefully, he discovered that he had been standing for too long, and the tight muscles caused the toes of his left foot to sway slightly. This moment caused all the Earth Wheel condensed in the front to dissipate.

Qin Tiexin Take out a breath and start again.

Again, he dispersed on the third floor. Again, he dispersed on the sixth floor. He dispersed seven or eight times in the morning.

While Earth Wheel brought about an increase in strength, it also brought about a rapid consumption of Qi and Blood and physical strength. Near noon, the sweat on his back had soaked through the clothes on his back and stuck to his skin, making it uncomfortably tight.

Qin Tiexin had to take off his shirt, revealing a body of powerful bronze muscles that trembled slightly with his breathing.

"Senior brother." Ming'an called him at the door.

"Hmm."

"You've been standing all morning, aren't you tired?"

"Not tired."

"Brother... I'm hungry." Ming'an seems to be getting hungry very quickly recently. I wonder if it has something to do with practicing Clear Heart Sutra.

Qin Tiexin opened his eyes and stopped his work. Ming'an sat on the threshold with his two calves hanging, looking at him eagerly.

Gulu~

My stomach just growled loudly.

"Let's go to the kitchen." Qin Tiexin said.

The two of them had lunch, and Ming'an ate a lot more. Qin Tiexin gave him two more meals. It seemed that either his practice was effective or he was growing stronger. Generally speaking, it was a good thing.

I continued to stand in the afternoon and still wandered off several times.

But he discovered one thing. After they dispersed, they reunited. Earth Wheel gathered together a little faster than before.

By the time it got dark, he had been able to stably condense seven layers of Earth Wheel, and the eighth layer was scattered and gathered.

He did not continue, stopped his work, asked Ming'an to go to the room to practice Heart Sutra and then went to bed early, while he stood in the yard for a while.

The seventh day.

Perhaps he found a trick, Qin Tiexin stood from early morning to evening, and finally stabilized the ninth floor.

Nine layers of golden halos are stacked on the soles of the feet, in circles, and the outermost layer has spread out about a foot away, slowly rotating against the ground.

When the ninth level is complete, his two legs seem to have grown out of the soil, and the soles of his feet are connected with the veins of the earth. The soil, stone cracks, and tree roots within three feet underground have become part of his body. The feeling is heavy Heaviness, like a mountain pressing on the ground.

He opened his eyes, made a fist, and punched forward.

No martial arts are used, just the most common form among practitioners, Thrust Punch.

The fist wind roared away, and the formation patterns on the courtyard wall lit up in response. The light blue light flashed and extinguished, absorbing all the power.

Qin Tiexin retracted his fist and his pupils shrank.

This punch was 50% heavier than usual.

His current boxing strength is close to 150,000 jins. A 50% increase, to 70,000 jins.

With one punch, it was close to the power of two dragons.

Qi and Blood Realm's physical strength limit is one hundred thousand kilograms, and he has already stood at twice the position.

Qin Tiexin looked at his fist and suddenly remembered the restriction in Sumeru Immovable Instruction.

When you move your feet, Earth Wheel is cleared.

He maintained the nine-layer Earth Wheel state and took a step forward with his left foot. As soon as his foot left the ground, the golden light under his feet disappeared instantly, and the feeling of growing out of the ground was uprooted. When he landed again, there was only an ordinary standing foot left, stepping on ordinary soil.

Qin Tiexin stood still, closed his eyes, and started again. One level for ten breaths, nine levels for ninety breaths. The golden light gathered again, and the earth was reconnected with him.

That's it. All that's left is to use it skillfully and try to shorten the time of condensation.

This is a great complement to his fighting style. His original fighting style is to rely on Mountain-Shaking Steps and Burst Step to get close, and then use Edgeless to hit hard. The most fundamental thing is to use strength to suppress people.

After learning Sumeru Immovable Instruction, he can stand still and wait for his opponent to attack, turning his offense into a defense and resisting head-on.

The former is flexible and the latter is solid.

In a close fight, the most feared thing is that the lower body is unstable. No matter how strong your punches are, your feet will be disturbed and your strength will be lost.

But with these nine levels of Earth Wheel, as long as he stands on the ground, few people at the same level can defeat him.

Not to mention that once Qi Gang is opened and protected around the body, he is almost equivalent to a humanoid pile made of iron.

"The longer you stand, the stronger you become." He repeated in a low voice.
