(Two updates a day is the minimum. If it goes beyond that, it will explode. Today, it will explode a little.)
"The strength of one arm has reached 450 pounds."
Chen Zong analyzed after putting down the heavy iron lock to test his strength.
"Five Energy Pills increased my strength by 20 pounds. Three Foundation Building Sword Techniques strengthened my Blood Qi and increased my strength by 30 pounds. The effect is better than Tiger Strength Fist Technique at the same level.
"In this way, I can reach the peak of Level 3 Qi and Blood Realm if I cultivate all three sword techniques to Initial Success."
He drew his sword and cultivated the Eight Forms of the True Sword.
Chen Zong didn't know why the mysterious sword tip helped him cultivate the Eight Forms of the True Sword. It couldn't compare to other Foundation Building Techniques, and the difficulty of cultivating the Eight Forms of the True Sword was much higher than Tiger Strength Fist Technique and Eagle Strike Sword Technique. His progress was slow, and he hadn't reached the peak of Initial Success, let alone Phenomenal Success.
However, the power of the Eight Forms of the True Sword was undeniable. Even at Initial Success, it was better than Tiger Strength Fist Technique at Perfection.
After cultivating the Eight Forms of the True Sword, Chen Zong began to cultivate Afterimage Sword Technique, Willow Sword Technique, and finally Eagle Strike Sword Technique.
Different sword techniques had different styles, but Chen Zong found some similarities between them and compared them with each other. His improvement was more obvious.
On the fourth night after cultivating the three sword techniques, Chen Zong was practicing in a corner. There were few people in the training field.
Afterimage Sword Technique was performed, and he stabbed out again and again, leaving behind afterimages.
The mark of the Afterimage Sword Art was to create an afterimage. As he practiced, his sword trembled slightly. Following the first afterimage, a second afterimage appeared vaguely.
After ten times, the second afterimage became clear.
Chen Zong felt his body go numb. His Blood Qi vibrated slightly, as if his potential was stimulated. It strengthened his Blood Qi and strengthened his body.
"Two afterimages, a sign of Initial Success." Chen Zong smiled. He didn't feel excited because he thought it was natural.
He practiced a few more rounds of Afterimage Sword Technique to consolidate his foundation. Then, he took the first stance of Willow Sword Technique.
His body swayed, and the iron sword swayed under the moonlight like a willow branch blown by the wind.
As he practiced, Chen Zong felt his body go numb again. His Blood Qi vibrated, and strengthened again.
Minor Accomplishment of Willow Swordsmanship!
Lastly, it was the Eagle Strike Swordsmanship.
The sword was like the wings of an eagle as it swept across the night sky, bringing with it an obscure light. It quickly pierced out again. With a twist of his wrist, the body of the sword changed accordingly, like the claws of an eagle.
He leaped into the air like a soaring eagle and struck down with his sword again. It was like an eagle pecking at its prey, emitting a sharp whistle.
When the moon was in the middle of the sky, his figure swept through the air. The iron sword struck down, and there seemed to be the cry of an eagle. His blood and Qi shook again.
Initial success in the Eagle Strike Swordsmanship!
Chen Zong felt his body heat up slightly, as if he was soaking in hot water. It was very comfortable, and his body was also strengthened bit by bit.
"It's late, time to sleep." Looking at the bright moon in the sky, Chen Zong sheathed his sword and walked toward the residential area.
The treatment of the descendants of the Clan Hall was not bad. Each of them lived in a room that was about five meters long and four meters wide. It was well-furnished.
Another two days passed. Chen Zong walked to the testing area. He grabbed the five hundred pound iron chain with one arm, exerted his strength, lifted it, and raised it above his head. He held it for three breaths before putting it down.
"Five hundred pounds of strength, peak of the third level of the Qi and Blood Realm. I finally reached it."
Some people were born with great strength, such as Chen Zhigang. However, Chen Zong was not one of them. Before he got the mysterious sword tip, he was mediocre in all aspects. After he got the mysterious sword tip, his cultivation speed increased many times, but his body did not change much.
On the training field, most of the descendants were cultivating.
There were fist arts, palm arts, leg arts, blade arts, and sword arts.
As usual, Chen Zong found a secluded corner to practice his sword.
"Chen Zong, I heard that you're cultivating three sword arts at the same time. Great, I've reached the peak of the Eagle Strike Sword Art. Do you want me to give you some pointers?" Chen Zuifeng and Chen Shuiqing walked over side by side. Chen Zuifeng had a faint smile on his face. There was a hint of disdain in his eyes. It was the kind of disdain a descendant of the main family would have for a descendant of the branch family.
"No need." Chen Zong's sharp eyes caught the hint of disdain in Chen Zuifeng's eyes. He knew that Chen Zuifeng did not really want to give him pointers. He probably had an ulterior motive.
"Chen Zong, it's your honor that Brother Zuifeng is willing to give you pointers. You don't know what's good for you," Chen Shuiqing scolded.
"Shuiqing, he's just a branch family bumpkin. Even if he agrees, I might not be willing to give him pointers," Chen Zuifeng laughed, not hiding his disdain.
This small episode made Chen Zong more aware of the situation of the branch family descendants in the main family hall.
However, as long as they were strong enough, there was no difference between a branch family and a main family.
After practicing each of the three sword arts thirty times, Chen Zong returned to the residential area after lunch.
"I can start cultivating the Tiger Roar Incantation now."
It was best not to be disturbed while cultivating the Tiger Roar Incantation.
This was a foundational cultivation method created by the ancestors of the Chen family after more than ten years. It was a secret secret of the Chen family. It was suitable for disciples who had reached the peak of the third level of the Qi and Blood realm to further refine their Blood Qi and build a good foundation in preparation for breaking through to the fourth level of the Qi and Blood realm.
After refining their Blood Qi once, they could actively move it and strengthen their body in all aspects in a short period of time. The increase in strength was the most obvious.
The Tiger Roar Incantation was divided into two parts: movement and stillness. Movement consisted of seven movements, imitating the movements of a tiger to move one's Blood Qi. Stillness consisted of the incantation. Using a posture that felt comfortable, one could silently recite the incantation and use one's mind to sense the Blood Qi to achieve the goal of refining.
According to the sword instructor, Chen Chuyun, since the establishment of the main family hall, only one in a hundred people could master the basics of the Tiger Roar Incantation and begin refining their Blood Qi. The most outstanding person took half a month.
"I wonder if I can start refining my Blood Qi within a month?" Chen Zong, who had not started cultivating the Tiger Roar Incantation, muttered to himself.
The cultivation of the Tiger Roar Incantation could be divided into three steps.
First: Sense the Blood Qi.
Second: Move the Blood Qi.
Third: Refine the Blood Qi.
It was said that the genius who started refining his Blood Qi in half a month took three days to sense the Blood Qi in the first step.
After finishing the exercise, Chen Zong took a deep breath to get rid of all distracting thoughts and concentrate. His back shook like a wave, and his hands and feet moved accordingly. He was like an awakened tiger stretching its muscles and bones.
Perhaps it was because Chen Zong had practiced the Tiger Power Fist Art to the Consummate Realm, the seven movements of the Tiger Roar Incantation were not difficult at all. With the help of the mysterious sword tip, he easily performed it on the first try, as if he had practiced it hundreds of times.
After the first try, Chen Zong felt his body heat up slightly. After the second and third try, the heat gradually increased. After the tenth try, Chen Zong vaguely felt the flow of the Blood Qi. Vaguely, he seemed to "see" a red river flowing slowly.
"I've reached the first step?" Chen Zong was surprised.
Didn't the fastest person in the main family hall take three days to reach the first step? He had only practiced it ten times, which added up to about fifteen minutes. Was it an illusion?
After the eleventh try, he could indeed sense the Blood Qi.
"It seems that I'm more talented in cultivation," Chen Zong said to himself. Striking while the iron was hot, he continued to practice.
As he practiced again and again, Chen Zong's body temperature kept rising. His skin gradually turned red, and he could sense the Blood Qi in his body more clearly.
After the thirtieth try, Chen Zong subconsciously assumed the Crouching Tiger Posture. This was the first move of the Tiger Power Fist Art, which had reached the Consummate Realm. Chen Zong felt very comfortable.
The Blood Qi flowed faster, like an endless stream. Chen Zong recited the incantation of the Tiger Roar Incantation silently. He concentrated on sensing the Blood Qi and synchronized with it. With the help of the incantation, he tried to control and move the Blood Qi.
Sensing the Blood Qi was the first challenge, and moving the Blood Qi was the second, which was more difficult than sensing the Blood Qi.
Chen Zong temporarily put down the practice of the sword art and focused on the Tiger Roar Incantation. One day, two days, three days, four days.
After practicing the Tiger Roar Incantation for ten times, Chen Zong assumed the Crouching Tiger Posture. He could clearly sense the Blood Qi in his body. With the help of his mind and the incantation, he tried his best to control the Blood Qi. The Blood Qi flowed faster and faster in his body.
Chen Zong's ears seemed to hear a series of low roars coming from within his body, like the roar of a fierce tiger from afar. That was the sound produced when the blood and Qi in his body reached a certain speed, and through the vibration and impact of the changes in speed, it was the essence of the Tiger Roar Technique. Through this kind of vibration and impact, one could refine their blood and Qi.
After seven minutes, Chen Zong had to stop refining the Blood Qi. He was starving.
The purpose of refining the Blood Qi was to remove the impurities and concentrate the essence. It was to increase the quality of the Blood Qi by reducing the quantity. It needed to be replenished before it could continue. Otherwise, it would damage the body.
How to replenish the Blood Qi after it was used up?
Of course, one would be hungry if they had to replenish the Blood Qi by absorbing the body's energy.
Energy Pills were great for replenishing energy. Unfortunately, he could only get three pills a month, and they would be gone in a few days. In most cases, he could only replenish his energy through eating.
He felt like he could eat an entire cow. After packing up quickly, Chen Zong left his room and went to the cafeteria.
The cafeteria not only provided meals, but also snacks. Chen Zong took a big bowl of beef bone soup and ten palm-sized beef buns. All of them had thin skin and lots of stuffing, and were very delicious. He ate while listening to the conversation of the three people around him.
"In about twenty days, it will be the monthly champion competition. I don't think I have a chance."
"Me neither."
"Who do you think will be the champion of each group?"
"For the fist technique group, I think it will be Chen Baiqi. His Furious Python Fist has reached the peak of greater mastery, and his Slithering Snake Hand has also reached greater mastery. Moreover, I heard that before he entered the clan hall, he had already started cultivating the Tiger Roar Formula. Now, he has refined his Blood Qi once."
"I really envy these clan disciples. Not only can they cultivate better Foundation Establishment martial arts than us, but they can also enjoy better cultivation resources than us. I heard that every year, the clan disciples will be the champion and break through to the fourth level of the Qi and Blood Qi realm earlier."
"That might not be the case this time. From what I know, Chen Guzhan from our fist technique group was born with great strength. I heard that one of his arms can weigh four hundred jin. His Heavy Punch has also reached the peak of greater mastery. Chen Baiqi might not be his match."
"Four hundred jin!" The other two disciples gasped. Chen Zong was also shocked. Four hundred jin of strength was equivalent to the strength he could unleash after refining his Blood Qi three times.
"For the palm technique group, I think it will be Chen Yong …"
"For the leg technique group, I think it will be Chen Ying …"
"For the saber technique group, I think it will be Chen Fenghua …"
"For the sword technique group, I think it will be Chen Yifeng …"
The people they were talking about were all clan disciples. Moreover, they had all cultivated the Tiger Roar Formula in advance and had already refined their Blood Qi once.
"I heard that someone in the sword technique group is cultivating three sword techniques at the same time. He might be a sword genius."
"That's a joke."
