Chapter 48 They Are so Awesome
At night, Chen Chu sat cross-legged on the bed, and controlled his true power to circulate along the second level of the Dragon Elephant Skill. →
He could clearly feel that this transparent true power would emit suction when it was in operation, forcibly taking in the extraordinary energy that was free outside the body for refining.
No need to rely on mental power to guide it into the body as before, the efficiency of cultivation is several times that before the breakthrough.
After refining the free energy, these true powers will grow stronger with each rotation, and then return to the dantian to start a new round.
However, unlike the internal power that travels through the meridians in martial arts novels, although it also starts from the dantian, the route of true power is very complicated.
Not only will it travel under the fascia and skin, but it will also shuttle between some muscles and bones, and the whole body will be tempered and strengthened wherever it passes.
This is also the reason why the physical fitness of Zhenwu practitioners is getting stronger and stronger.
The Dragon Elephant Skill, which focuses on strength and defense, has a better effect on tempering the physical fitness. After practicing, the muscles are more explosive and the skin is tougher.
After almost an hour, Chen Chu opened his eyes.
Huh!
Chen Chu exhaled, carefully felt the changes after cultivation, and then murmured slightly: "This progress is a bit slow."
The first level is mainly to temper the physique and generate true power, so the physique must be tempered to about five times that of ordinary people, and the arm strength must reach 300 kilograms to touch the edge of breakthrough.
After breaking through the second level, the focus of the cultivator is on strengthening the true power until the dantian is filled, and the tempering of the physique becomes secondary.
As for the physical limit of the second level, it is about 800 kilograms of arm strength.
This limit is not the biological limit of human beings, but the limit of the tempering effect of the second level of true power on the body.
Only after breaking through the third level, the more powerful true power can continue to temper and strengthen the physique.
But because the cultivator does not need to strengthen the physique to the limit, as long as the true power fills the dantian, the true power can be continuously compressed and atomized to break through.
Therefore, some extreme cultivators will pay less and less attention to physical strengthening, and they are more pursuing breakthroughs in the realm of true power.
Because the higher the realm, the more terrifying the power of the cultivated true power is, and even the power of heaven and earth can be controlled to fight.
Compared with high-level practitioners, especially the top masters of the Ninth Heaven, the hundreds or thousands of kilograms of strength that have been increased in their physique are not worth mentioning at all.
Only those who have been stuck in one realm for several years or more than ten years will spend their energy to refine their physique to the extreme of the current realm.
Because when practicing and refining the physique, some true power will be consumed, affecting the progress of practice.
Recalling what Pang Long said in his mind, Chen Chu estimated that if he wanted to fill his dantian with true power, it might take him half a year under normal practice.
"Half a year." Thinking of this, Chen Chu sighed.
After two consecutive evolutions of his clones, his qualifications, along with the improvement of his basic physique, are actually no worse than those "geniuses" who rely on resources to break through within a week.
In this case, it takes half a year to break through the third heaven, so how long will it take for those who build their foundation in half a month or a month?
Chen Chu once again felt the difficulty of the path of practice. It took him at least half a year to break through from the second level to the third level, and what about the third level to the fourth level?
According to the increase in the difficulty of each breakthrough, it would take at least two years for a person with poor aptitude to break through to the third level through normal practice...
Thinking of this, Chen Chu couldn't help but feel lucky.
Fortunately, he could use attribute points to directly strengthen the breakthrough level of the technique. →
At noon the next day, when Chen Chu, who had practiced swordsmanship for a whole morning, came to the canteen, he met Lin Xue and Xia Youhui, who were also queuing.
"Ah Chu, here, here." Xia Youhui waved to him.
When Chen Chu came behind him, Xia Youhui couldn't wait to say, "Ah Chu, have you heard about it?"
"You didn't say anything, how could I hear anything." Chen Chu couldn't help but complain.
"Hey... I thought you knew."
Xia Youhui chuckled, and then gossiped: "This morning, I heard that Li Hao, who ranked second, and Hong Tianyi, who ranked third, broke through the second level."
"It is said that Li Hao has been building his foundation for three days and has already reached the limit of the first level. This time, after getting the second place, he broke through directly with the help of cultivation resources."
Chen Chu nodded: "I know him."
Chen Chu had a deep impression of the two-meter-tall mighty classmate who used heavy weapons. After all, he was a fierce man who fought with an iron pillar.
While talking, several people got their meals, took their plates and found an empty table to sit down.
After sitting down, Chen Chu looked at the purple-haired girl opposite him and asked curiously: "Class monitor, how long will it take for you to break through?"
As the tenth-ranked genius in the ranking competition, Lin Xue is currently very popular among the freshmen. There is no way, not only is she beautiful, but she is also so strong.
Lin Xue thought for a moment: "I used some resources yesterday to strengthen my physique to the limit of the first heaven. The next step is to warm up and condense my true energy. It is expected to take a few days."
"The squad leader is amazing. He is going to break through so soon."
When praising Lin Xue, Chen Chu's tone was very sincere, as if he had completely forgotten that he had broken through the second heaven yesterday.
Lin Xue shook his head: "It's just that I broke through ahead of time with the help of resources. There is nothing to be proud of."
Originally, after building the foundation, Lin Xue expected that he would be able to break through in more than a month. This time it was only a week ahead of schedule, so he didn't feel much.
And it was not just Lin Xue who broke through. In the next week or so, people in the top 50 broke through the second heaven from time to time.
At the same time, some gossip about Chen Chu began to leak out.
It is said that he was able to enter the top 50 because of his high compatibility with the Dragon Elephant Technique, which enabled him to have explosive power beyond the limit in the first level.
Even so, he only ranked 49th.
Once those "geniuses" who practiced advanced techniques break through the second level, his advantage will be crushed.
And according to the practice speed of low-level techniques, even if he exchanged resources to accelerate practice, it would take at least more than a month to break through the second level.
At that time, not to mention the top 50, the advanced techniques practitioners who were not ranked would have broken through early.
Any of these people could suppress Chen Chu with their strength. The ranking of the top 49 in the grade would no longer be an honor for him, but a mockery of empty reputation.
"How do you feel after listening to this?"
Thursday, afternoon.
In the reading room on the 33rd floor, Luo Fei repeated all the comments she saw on the official website.
Chen Chu thought about it and nodded, "I don't have any feelings. They are right. Those people are indeed much better than me in terms of cultivation talent."
Looking at Chen Chu's calm appearance, Luo Fei blinked her beautiful eyes and asked curiously, "Aren't you afraid that someone will challenge you after breaking through the second level?"
Although according to the school rules, the ranking of freshmen will not change before the second year of high school, if someone really beats Chen Chu, his popularity will definitely increase.
"No."
"Why?" Luo Fei was puzzled.
Chen Chu smiled and said, "Those ranked ahead of me will not take action, and those who are not on the list, only those who practice advanced skills are dangerous to me."
"But these people only have 5 contribution points a month, which is less than what I have now, and they don't have 20% discount authority, so they can't exchange for many resources."
"When they break through, I will almost break through too. At that time, it is not certain who will win or lose in the same realm."
Chen Chu did not tell others that he had broken through because it violated common sense.
After all, the talent he showed before was only average, and even if there was an excuse of high compatibility with Zhenwu, it was too conspicuous and there was no need to say it.
Of course, he didn't want to play the pig and eat the tiger, but he was used to keeping a low profile and felt that there was no need to publicize it everywhere.
But if someone messed with him, he would slap him to death.
Looking at Chen Chu, who looked calm and unmoved by the outside world, Luo Fei smiled.
Then the two chatted for a while, and then immersed themselves in the atmosphere of reading.
Of course, Chen Chu seemed to be reading, but in fact most of his attention was on the heavy armor beast.
The ferocious beast that had grown to 1.3 meters slowly entered the river.
More than a week had passed since the breakthrough of the second heaven, and the heavy armor beast was either hunting or on the way to prey every day.
As the heavy armor beast continued to grow and became more powerful and ferocious, Chen Chu found that there were fewer and fewer mutant big fish in this section of the river, and he often had to swim for several miles to encounter one.
In this way, a lot of time would be wasted just looking for prey every day.
Under the river surface more than ten meters deep, the heavy armored beast was biting fish meat in its mouth, with a thoughtful look in its eyes. "It seems that when the heavy armored beast evolves again, it will have to go to the sea to find food."
There is also
