1995 Penance

In that forest, Xiao Chen seemed to disappear out of thin air. When he reappeared, the environment in front of Xiao Chen's eyes had undergone earth-shaking changes.

In the distance, a rushing waterfall flows down from the mountain stream and merges into a long river below. Above the river bank is a large open area. Standing on the bank, you can feel a fresh water vapor.

This big river is called Zhuang River. There are many rivers like wild forests, and this Zhuang River is just one of them. The place where Xiao Chen is located is the source of Zhuang River.

In the eyes of outsiders, almost no one pays attention to the extremely inconspicuous place, but Xiao Chen's spiritual sense senses an unusual existence here.

On a big rock in the cave behind the waterfall, the surrounding spiritual energy is extremely strong, and the cultivation speed on it is about half faster than the cultivation speed outside.

After Xiao Chen found out by accident, he immediately set up a phantom array here to cover up people's eyes. This place is relatively remote.

It took Xiao Chen ten days to complete this set of phantom formations. As long as it is not a master of the Martial King level, outsiders will not be able to find this place at all. Even if they enter this place by mistake, they will bypass it unconsciously.

Xiao Chen was completely safe here, he found a flat rock at random, sat cross-legged, Zi Leijue sat down slowly, and began to enter the state of cultivation.

The morning sun was rising, the sun was falling, and the night passed like this. Xiao Chen opened his eyes and took a deep breath, jumped off the rock, and came to the river to wash his face.

In the morning, the waterfall stopped flowing, and the surface of the river was as smooth as a mirror. Xiao Chen raised his legs and walked directly to the surface of the river. His body miraculously stopped on the surface of the water.

The heart is as calm as water, Xiao Chen circulated the mental method of Qinglong Tengyunjue, closed his eyes, and walked slowly on the surface of the water, every step he took, ripples scattered around.

According to ancient legends, the dragon is the overlord of the sky and the sea, diving in the abyss can turn rivers and seas, reverse mountains and rivers, call wind and rain, and be omnipotent. When it soars above the nine heavens, it can soar through the clouds and ride the fog, and between turns, the wind and thunder surge, and the wind and thunder surge for thousands of miles in an instant.

Qinglong Tengyunjue is such a body technique, practiced to a great success, the legendary soaring clouds and fog, turning rivers and seas, are all easily picked up.

These days, Xiao Chen has been in this Zhuang River, practicing the Qinglong Tengyun Jue. From the beginning of no progress, he has achieved a little success, and can walk slowly on the water.

Xiao Chen has been walking slowly on the surface of the water like this,

After comprehending all the mysteries of the Qinglong Tengyun Jue, when the sun in the sky reached the top of the head, there were bursts of rushing water sounds.

The turbulent waterfall began to rush again, and the calm river suddenly became turbulent. Xiao Chen opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of solemnity.

At this time of day, the trial really begins. If Xiao Chen is not careful, he will immediately fall into the water and become a drowned chicken.

The river swam rapidly downwards, Xiao Chen stood on the water surface, and went upstream, every step he took took a lot of energy, but his body was still swaying left and right above the water surface.

thump!

When he walked a hundred steps forward, Xiao Chen finally couldn't hold on and fell into the river. The turbulent river took Xiao Chen's body and quickly flowed downstream.

The calm Zhuang River immediately showed its ferocious side, and the turbulent water carried tremendous strength. The constant impact on Xiao Chen's body made it difficult for him to maintain his balance, and his body quickly flowed downstream in the water.

It was not the first time that Xiao Chen encountered this kind of situation. He was calm and not panicked. Holding his breath, his body sank slowly to the bottom of the river.

The vitality was circulating in the body, ready to go, the moment his toes stepped on the bottom of the river, he jumped a little sharply, and his body jumped out of the water like an arrow leaving the string.

When the body fell to the surface of the water again, with a light touch, it turned over in the air and landed firmly on the shore.

Looking at the rushing river, Xiao Chen was still very moved. In such a turbulent river, even ordinary warriors may drown to death if they are not in a good mood.

The whole body was extremely wet and uncomfortable, Xiao Chen wiped his face, took off the clothes on his body, and changed into a set of dry clothes from the Qiankun Ring.

It was not suitable to continue practicing agility at this time, Xiao Chen didn't waste time, after eating some dry food, he took out a wooden stick and stood it on the flat ground.

Holding the Moon Shadow Saber in his hand, facing the scorching sun, he began to practice the first move of the Benlei Saber Technique, drawing the saber. In his opinion, drawing a knife must be practiced to the point where you can chop twelve times in a row without the wooden stick falling down.

He can only swing four knives now, barely reaching the realm of Xiaocheng, and there is still a long way to go before Dacheng.

brush! brush! brush! brush! brush!

After practicing for two hours, this time Xiao Chen chopped five times in a row. The light wooden stick shook a few times, but it did not fall down after all.

"Finally, I have made some progress, and I can chop five knives in a row." Xiao Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead, the handle of the knife was covered with sweat, and said happily.

After leaving Mohe City, Xiao Chen realized that there are too many so-called geniuses in this world, and Xiao Chen is nothing at all.

Within Dongming alone, among the inheritors of the three major forces, they are only sixteen or seventeen years old, but their cultivation has reached the astonishing level of a great martial artist.

Ordinary people may not be able to reach the realm of cultivation in their entire life, but they easily reached it at the age of sixteen or seventeen. It can only be said that people are more angry than people.

The field of vision zooms in to the whole world, there will be many monsters like this, Xiao Chen's current achievements are simply not worth mentioning, like a drop in the ocean, inconspicuous.

In this world where the strong are respected, since he has come, he will not be willing to be inferior to others, become a stepping stone for others, and be lost in the dust of history.

Without strong talent, one has to put in thousands of times of effort, just like Lei Di thousands of years ago, who was born in a poor family, but relied on his own strength to trample all the geniuses of those aristocratic families under his feet.

He has received Lei Di's inheritance, so even if he doesn't care about his own face, he still has to take into account the fame of the eternal Lei Emperor. Since his talent is not monstrous, he must put in a million times more effort.

Putting up a wooden stick again, Xiao Chen calmed down and continued to practice drawing the knife tirelessly. The sawdust on the open space kept increasing.

An hour later, Xiao Chen put away his saber and stood up, rested for a while, and walked slowly to the shore. Looking at the waterfall rushing in the distance, he was already much weaker.

brake!

With a soft drink, he jumped onto the turbulent water, ran fast, and went up against the direction. Waves of air surged around Xiao Chen, and waves more than two meters high splashed on both sides of his body.

Xiao Chen ran all the way without stopping, and came to the place where the waterfall fell, shouted loudly, jumped up high, and an air gun appeared on the surface of his body.

With a swipe, he directly broke through the power waterfall, and Xiao Chen landed on a rock behind the waterfall. This is a cave sunken into the mountain wall.

It is only two meters deep, and the humidity in the cave is very heavy. The waterfall flowing down from the entrance of the cave is like a water curtain, very similar to the water curtain cave that Xiao Chen knew in his previous life.

There is a very flat and smooth rock in the cave, Xiao Chen showed a faint smile on his face, and slowly sat on it. Immediately entered the state of cultivation, Zi Lei Jue circulated continuously in the body.

The dense aura around him poured into Xiao Chen's body non-stop. The aura was as dense as mist, almost reaching the point of liquefaction.

Xiao Chen only circulated for one big cycle, and the spiritual energy in his body has already filled all the meridians, and there is a faint feeling of extreme excitement in the Wuhun.

Xiao Chen knew that this was a sign of advancement, as long as he was willing, his realm could immediately return to the cultivation level of a low-rank martial artist.

But Xiao Chen didn't do this. He crossed the border and cast the Nine Heavens Thunder Array that day, which made his realm fall to the top-rank warrior. After thinking about it carefully, he didn't think it was a bad thing, but an opportunity to re-establish a solid foundation.

It only took him a few months to enter the realm of a low-rank martial artist from the soul refining stage. This is an incredible thing for ordinary people. No matter what, his foundation has not really been laid well.

For a tall building, the foundation is the most important thing. Only the more stable the foundation is, the taller building will not have any accidents and collapse midway.

The same is true for the journey of martial arts. If the soul refining stage is to dig the foundation, then the warrior realm is to fill the dug foundation.

Xiao Chen's soul refining period came much later than ordinary people. It took fifteen years, and the foundation was dug far deeper than ordinary people. He just waited for him to re-bury it now and create an unbreakable, steel-like foundation. .

With a thought in his mind, Xiao Chen saw that the huge spiritual energy he had absorbed was all poured into the flesh and bones, slowly tempering his body.

After the vitality circulated in the body for nine big cycles, Xiao Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and his body was covered with black sticky. Xiao Chen jumped out of the cave directly, and the turbulent waterfall washed away all the impurities from his body.

Immediately, I felt refreshed, relaxed and happy, couldn't help but let out a loud drink, the momentum of my whole body suddenly exploded to the extreme, and the water droplets on my body evaporated instantly.

boom!

Xiao Chen's body fell heavily on the water surface, a huge force spread from his feet, and after a while, a circle of waves more than three meters high suddenly rose around.

Lightly pointing his toes, Xiao Chen returned to the shore. In the infinite distance of the sky, the sun was setting and the night was falling. The day passed like this.

A smaller white figure ran quickly from outside the phantom array, Xiao Chen saw it. There was a faint smile on his face, no matter how lonely this journey of cultivation was, at least Xiaobai was with him.

After a night of recuperation, Xiao Bai regained her eccentric temper and ran out of the Soul Blood Jade early in the morning.

Xiao Chen wasn't too worried about its safety. Xiaobai, who practiced the nine-turn Tian Xuan Transformation, was so fast that even Xiao Chen couldn't match it.

It ran up to Xiao Chen, with a herb on its mouth, and put it in Xiao Chen's hand like offering a treasure. Xiao Chen is not surprised by this, Xiaobai has a sensitivity that humans do not have to some spiritual treasures, and almost every time he goes out, he will gain something.

Xiao Chen took the herb in his hands and observed it carefully, his eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "The fifth-grade elixir herb, this is a 30-year-old top-grade herb, and it is worth thousands of gold."

Hearing Xiao Chen's delighted words, Xiao Bai showed a humane smile on his face, looking very satisfied.
