"A loss is a loss. Looking for an excuse? So the Ling family's disciples are this kind of trash! "
In the face of Ling Chong's quibbling and the crowd's discussion, Ling Xiao only said one sentence and turned to leave.
Ling Chong gnashed his teeth in anger.
He roared angrily at Ling Xiao, "Little beggar, you just wait and see. Once I recover from my injuries, I definitely won't hold back against you anymore!"
After speaking, he clutched his chest and left with an ugly expression on his face with the help of two outer sect disciples.
In Ling Chong's opinion, he lost to Ling Xiao today because he underestimated him.
In the past, when he attacked, that kid didn't fight back. Today, he actually took the initiative to counterattack.
No, he had to temper himself. Next time, he had to make Ling Xiao pay the price!
… …
Ling Xiao returned home and told his grandfather about how he defeated Ling Chong. Then, he returned to his room to continue cultivating.
He was very clear that he was able to defeat Ling Chong today because of luck.
Firstly, the opponent underestimated him. Secondly, he relied on the Mountain River Martial Spirit.
But that was not true strength after all.
The high level martial arts that Ling Chong cultivated were second only to the top martial arts in the secular world. If he really practiced it well, then even if the Mountain River Martial Spirit could analyze the flaws, Ling Xiao might not be able to catch it.
Therefore, Ling Xiao had already thought about it. To forge iron, one had to be strong. Although it was good to have the help of the Mountain River Martial Spirit, the key was to increase his own strength.
If he could reach the second level of the Martial Vein and break through the second Martial Vein, then perhaps under the condition that Ling Chong did not underestimate him, he could rely on the Mountain River Martial Spirit to defeat Ling Chong again.
But now, it was definitely impossible. After all, the opening of every Martial Vein would bring about a huge increase in strength.
The difference between the first level of the Martial Vein and the second level of the Martial Vein was very large.
The human body had nine Martial Veins, so it was also called the nine levels of the Martial Vein.
Every three levels was a stage.
The first stage, which was the first three levels, was also called the awakening stage.
As the name implied, it was the awakening of a martial artist's strength, strengthening the body and laying the foundation for martial arts cultivation.
Under normal circumstances, in the awakening stage, every time a Martial Vein was opened, the body's strength would increase by one to two hundred jin.
At the same time, the true qi in his body would also increase by 100 standard points.
The standard point was a martial artist's unit of True Qi. Normally, martial artists would not go through so much trouble and would directly state how many True Qi points they had.
In a battle between martial artists, it was often the strength and the amount of True Qi that determined victory or defeat.
In other words, a martial artist at the first level of the Martial Vein would not only have one or two hundred kilograms of strength less than a martial artist at the second level of the Martial Vein, but they would also have one hundred points of True Qi less.
This was also the reason why those people were so surprised when Ling Xiao defeated Ling Chong, who was at the second level of the Martial Vein, with his strength at the first level of the Martial Vein.
So much so that they were willing to believe in even the most absurd of reasons.
One hundred to two hundred kilograms of strength and one hundred points of true energy, for a martial artist, it was really too important.
Therefore, Ling Xiao felt that since he was temporarily unable to obtain higher level martial arts manuals, the best way was to quickly break through.
As long as he reached the second level of the Martial Vein, he would have the qualifications to enter the Ling Family's library and select higher level martial arts manuals.
The second level of the Martial Vein was a turning point.
Thinking of this, Ling Xiao no longer hesitated.
He began to repeatedly practice the Barbaric Bull's Strength in his room.
Of course, every practice was done according to the movements of the figure in the Mountain and River Diagram.
The Barbaric Bull's Strength only had a total of nine moves.
At present, Ling Xiao could do exactly the same movements as the figure in the Mountain and River Diagram, but only the first three moves.
This was far from enough.
Once!
Twice!
Three times!
Constantly repeating! Constantly practicing!
Not only did Ling Xiao realize that all of his movements had become extremely smooth and fluid, each of his moves and styles seemed to contain even more power than before.
Of course, what made him the happiest was that after more than ten times, in addition to the first three moves, the fourth, fifth, and sixth moves had finally reached perfection.
However, the surprise was far more than that.
Every time he practiced, he could find that there would be a stream of energy from the Mountain and River Martial Spirit that slowly flowed into his Dantian Martial Vein.
This Mountain and River Martial Spirit seemed to be able to transform natural energy into true qi, and then let martial artists possess it!
Although this was only Ling Xiao's guess, if this matter was true, then no matter what cultivation method Ling Xiao cultivated in the future, the final cultivation effect would be much better than others.
After all, when he was cultivating, the Mountain and River Martial Spirit was also helping him cultivate, so the improvement would be fast.
In addition, he also found that the Mountain and River Martial Spirit had a little change, and that was that the Mountain and River Diagram, which originally only revealed a corner of the village in the clouds, was gradually revealing more scenes.
Although it was only a little increase, it represented a possibility.
The effect of the Mountain and River Martial Spirit might not have been fully explored by him. When the clouds above completely disappeared, the Mountain and River Diagram would completely appear. Perhaps the true meaning of the Mountain and River Martial Spirit would be completely awakened.
Work harder, continue to work hard!
Although he still didn't know much about the Mountain and River Martial Spirit, Ling Xiao knew that at least this thing was harmless to him.
Once again, he began to patiently practice the Barbaric Bull's Strength over and over again. This time, he chose to strengthen the last three moves that had yet to be perfected.
From morning to night, except for meal time, he almost didn't rest.
The final result was that the seventh and eighth moves were perfected. He estimated that as long as he could perfectly practice the ninth move, he should be able to break through the shackles of the second level of the Martial Vein.
However, in the end, he was not a machine, and was only a thirteen year old child. In the end, as he practiced, he actually fell asleep on the ground.
The next morning, the first thing Ling Xiao did when he got up from the ground was to cultivate again.
There was no other way, the strong sense of danger and pressure forced him to work hard.
It was a pity that he didn't even have the qualifications to go to the martial arts field.
One had to know that the reason why the martial arts field was fought over was not just a matter of face.
It was because the martial arts field was built by the Ling Family's ancestor with special materials, and the stone bricks on the ground were all special.
Cultivating there would not only consume less stamina, but also yield more benefits.
"One day, not only will I be able to openly cultivate in the martial arts field, but I will also let my grandfather live in a better house."
His current dilapidated house, once it rained, was no different from the dilapidated temple he lived in when he was a beggar.
This morning, Ling Xiao focused his cultivation on the ninth move, repeatedly practicing it.
Finally, after practicing it over a hundred times, he felt a kind of comfort and joy that he had never felt before.
All nine moves of the Barbaric Bull's Strength were perfected, and the movements were exactly the same as the movements of the people in the Mountain River Diagram.
"The house is too narrow, why don't I go outside and try out the power!"
After Ling Xiao practiced the Barbaric Bull's Strength to perfection, he really wanted to try out the power of this set of foundational martial arts.
So he went out, but he didn't go to the martial arts field. Instead, he went out of the Ling Family's main door and came to a small forest outside.
"Ha!"
Following a loud roar, Ling Xiao seemed to have turned into a roaring bull, and directly crashed into a huge rock in front of him.
The huge rock was around two to three hundred pounds, and previously, Ling Xiao could only leave a few marks on it. It was almost impossible for him to break it.
However, this time, when the berserk bull collided with the boulder, the boulder shattered and let out a rumbling sound.
