Chapter 218: Internal Strength Attacks the Marrow, Enemy at the Gate

The night faded, and the sky was filled with a fish-belly white sheen.

The early morning rain and dew soaked Qi Sui's clothes.

He was breathing long and long, and was trying to use the inner strength and mental method he had just learned, "Pure Yang True Fire Divine Art".

Rumor has it that if you practice this inner skill to perfection, you can create a cluster of pure Yang fire in your body out of thin air.

Of course, in Qi Sui's eyes, this is purely bluffing. If he could achieve this level with just one skill, then extraordinary warriors would not be so rare and terrifying.

But internal strength is not completely useless.

The essence of internal strength is actually to guide the flow of internal energy in the body.

It just so happens that in the cultivation of the master state, it is necessary to use the internal energy of blood and flesh cells to warm and nourish other cells in the body, until the bone marrow, blood and other cells can generate internal energy, thereby achieving the grand master's achievement.

Proficient mastery of internal strength and mental methods can make the process of warming and nourishing easier and simpler.

The benefits are endless!

Especially due to historical faults, there are basically no inner skills and mental methods passed down in modern society. The master's warm cultivation can still only use the traditional gravity benzene method and the assistance of a large number of genetic medicines. The cultivation speed is very slow, and it takes three to five times at every turn. Ten years of accumulation.

“What a rare opportunity!”

"I can also learn more inner skills and mental methods in this world, thereby greatly shortening the time to reach the master's realm."

Qi Sui licked his lips.

Although with the help of the career panel, his training speed has always been very fast, no one would dislike being faster.

Moreover, there is always an inexplicable sense of urgency in his heart.

It seemed that a great crisis and terror were waiting for him not far ahead.

There is not much time left for him!

"Husband!"

Su Nian also stayed up all night.

At this time, she had taken off her wedding clothes and put on the purple phoenix robe she was used to wearing on weekdays.

He came from outside with a bowl of steaming porridge in his hand.

"This is the red osmanthus and lotus seed porridge I just cooked. It is best for warming the stomach and dispelling the cold. It's cold in the morning. Husband, please drink it while it's hot!"

Despite being snubbed, the girl's pretty face, which was slightly red from the cold, still had a gentle smile.

Qi Sui finished his speech.

A stream of white air came out of his mouth, vaguely turning into a long dragon, smashing the boulder not far away into pieces.

"You drink first!" he said calmly.

"Oh~"

Su Nian has a somewhat submissive temperament.

Putting the bowl in front of Yan Hong's little mouth, she took a few sips. After swallowing the hot porridge, her body felt much warmer.

"Here, husband, I drank!"

This time, Qi Sui did not refuse her kindness and took the bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

It has to be said that although Su Nian comes from an imperial family, she is not the kind of woman who doesn't touch the spring water. She is already very good at cooking. A simple bowl of porridge cooked by her is unexpectedly delicious.

"If your cooking skills were to open a breakfast shop downstairs in my community, business would be booming!"

"What neighborhood?"

Su Nian's pretty face was blank.

"fine!"

Qi Sui coughed and put his palm on Su Nian's back. He could feel the girl's delicate body tense up for a moment, but then relaxed again.

"Qi Lang..."

"Don't talk, just feel silently!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Sui's internal energy flowed rapidly, all converging on his palm, and a layer of weak red Gang Qi rose up.

However, it did not cause any harm to Su Nian. Instead, it contained a strong burning sensation. It was like a piece of ingenuity peeling off a cocoon, turning into wisps of mist energy and entering Su Nian's body through the pores of his skin.

"Ah! So hot!"

Su Nian's pretty face turned red and she let out a sweet moan.

She only felt as if a fire was igniting in her body, repeatedly tempering her body.

"Sure enough, it works. Grandmaster Gang Qi can have attributes. It can not only be used to fight enemies, but can also derive other wonderful uses!"

Qi Sui couldn't help but grin.

The "Pure Yang True Fire" magic skill after Dacheng can give Gang Qi a flame attribute.

If we talk about the nature of the world, it is through the internal energy movement as a medium that some fire element particles are attached to the Gang Qi.

Pure Yang True Fire has the ability to cleanse the physical body and improve qualifications. In addition, it incorporates the wood attribute elements of the "Three Pure Wood Spirit" internal skills, which can make his Gang Qi softer.

Even if Su Nian's realm is ordinary and his body is weak, he can still withstand the baptism of Gang Qi.

The whole process lasted about three minutes.

"Su Nian, how do you feel?"

Qi Sui retracted his palm, dispersed the strong energy, and asked.

At this moment, Su Nian's delicate body was dripping with sweat, and a layer of fishy dirt exuded from her fair and tender skin.

But she didn't care about this. She clenched her fists and tried to jump on the spot. Her pretty face was full of surprise: "Husband, isn't this amazing? Do you know how to cleanse the muscles and cut the marrow? I feel that my strength has improved too much now." Now that I’m old enough, I can already touch the threshold of the world’s top masters.”

"As long as it works!"

Qi Sui smiled slightly.

It is precisely because of the existence of internal strength and mental methods that the methods recorded in history books such as "Enlightenment", "Marrying Clothes Magic", "Cleaning the Muscles and Cutting the Marrow" and other methods are not completely fictitious.

"ah!"

At this time, Su Nian also discovered his dilemma.

"Husband, I'm going to clean myself first, please wait for me!"

She stuck out her tongue with a blushing face, and trotted all the way back to the palace. She called a few maids to bring hot water inside.

Taking advantage of this time, Qi Sui continued to study his own martial arts path.

"Drink! Fire Palm!"

Gang Qi rose up from the palm of Qi Sui's palm, gathering a large amount of fire attribute elements, as if they were really burning.

With one palm strike, the fire dragon shot out, with astonishing power.

In the real world, there is not even one person in the world who can possess attributes of Gang Qi, but he did it so easily.

"Thunder Tornado Kicks!"

"Golden Light Fist!"

"..."

At this time, Qi Sui was like a true martial arts master. As long as he wanted to, he could create thousands of different martial arts techniques.

"We have to continue to settle!"

He summoned a little maid and asked her to continue to collect martial arts and internal skills for him.

For better or worse, more is better.

At this moment, Su Nian, who had just been cleaned, walked over, holding a green sword in his hand, with wisps of steam rising from his white and tender neck, and his delicate body exuding a unique and elegant fragrance.

"Husband, I would like to ask you to teach me my swordsmanship!"

"Okay, you can demonstrate it again!"

Qi Sui said with great interest.

He remembered the evaluation of Su Nian in the history books.

"Both civil and military"!

It shows that the other party also has good attainments in martial arts.

Zheng——

The long sword was unsheathed, and the sword whistled softly.

In just a moment, the girl's temperament changed drastically.

Gentleness and fragility no longer exist, the willow eyebrows stand upright, and fierce fighting spirit gathers between the eyebrows.

"Bah!"

Su Nian moved his steps, his steps were brisk and quick, and he had strong Qinggong skills at his side.

The sword light was like a drizzle, seemingly ordinary, but it contained terrifying murderous intent.

In the end, the sword edge formed a beautiful sword flower.

A fierce sword bloomed from the flower and stabbed towards Qi Sui's chest.

Qi Sui looked at this scene with a smile.

Seeing that he didn't dodge, Su Nian was a little panicked. He wanted to withdraw his sword move, but his steps became staggering and he almost fell to the ground. However, the distance between the two was too close, and the sword tip still penetrated.

It's just that the expected scene of blood spurting didn't happen.

It was like being stabbed on a piece of extremely tough thick cowhide, not even able to break through the defense.

"You don't have to worry about me. If you can really hurt me, then you can walk away under the sun!" Qi Sui smiled calmly.

Su Nian lost all his heroic spirit and his face turned slightly red: "I made my husband laugh. Please comment on my swordsmanship!"

"Your sword technique is very light and agile, and it is well combined with your body technique. It can be used to attack when advancing, and to defend when retreating. It is both strong and soft. However, it lacks some killing intent. Simply put, it does not cause enough damage."

"It's easy to get into a fight when you encounter an opponent of a similar level to you. Women's physical strength is inherently weak, and they are more likely to be defeated!"

Qi Sui's tone was sincere.

In his current state, tutoring Su Nian is no different from tutoring primary school students as a doctoral supervisor.

"Well, husband, I have written down all of this. I will go down and think about it!"

Su Nian looked at the sword in his hand with a thoughtful expression.

"But don't put too much pressure on you. You are a girl, but you have just turned eighteen and have experienced a cleansing of your muscles and marrow. Your martial arts qualifications are already among the best among people. As long as you are willing to calm down and practice , becoming a martial arts supreme figure in the future is not a problem!”

Qi Sui smiled and encouraged her.

Su Nian seemed to have thought of something, and said with eager eyes: "Husband, can I ask you for some advice on martial arts?"

"Yes, as long as I know how to do it, I can teach it to you!"

Qi Sui agreed.

This kind of casual thing can be regarded as a fate for the two of them to meet.

"Yeah! Great! I will also work hard to become a great master like my husband, so that I can protect all the people of the Ancient Divine Phoenix Kingdom!"

Su Nian was excited and jumped up on the spot.

No matter how mature she looks, she is just a little girl who has just grown up.

Qi Sui smiled and did not pour cold water on her.

The journey of cultivation is never that simple.

Not to mention reaching his own level, it is not an easy task to reach those 800,000 Forbidden Army instructors whom he instantly killed yesterday.

"By the way, husband, it's getting late, let's go and pay our respects to our father first!"

"And today's morning court, my father hopes that you can also participate!"

Su Nian said.

Qi Sui thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, I just have something to discuss with your father!"

…

Su Zheng's bedroom is nearby.

After the two passed through a landscape garden, the luxuriously decorated "Qianqing Palace" appeared not far away.

"Husband, I want to discuss something with you!" Su Nian suddenly slowed down.

"you say!"

"That is, if my father asks about what happened last night, you...can you help me smooth things over?"

At this point, Su Nian's pretty face turned red again.

Qi Sui couldn't help laughing.

He found that the little girl blushed easily.

"Don't worry, I will consider these things myself!"

"That's okay, that's okay!"

Su Nian patted her slightly bulging chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

She was a little afraid that her father and husband would have a bad relationship because of her affairs.

After the eunuch's announcement.

Su Nian and Qi Sui walked into the hall side by side.

The two behaved intimately, and there was nothing unusual about them.

"My daughter Su Nian has paid her respects to my father!"

"Qi Sui has met His Majesty!"

"Hahaha!"

Su Zheng had just gotten up and was still wearing satin pajamas.

He was in a very comfortable mood, and the depression accumulated due to years of stress had dissipated a lot.

In fact, there was a lot of gambling involved in his eagerness to get his daughter married to Qi Sui.

After all, the two parties have not been in contact for a long time, and no one can guarantee what Qi Sui's character is, whether he will eat his daughter clean, pat her butt and leave, paying off his wife and then losing his army.

But he had no choice.

The situation of the ancient Shenhuang Kingdom has reached a critical point of life and death. There is no time for him to delay, so he can only grit his teeth and take a gamble.

Judging from Qi Sui's performance today, he seemed to have made the right bet.

"Brother Qi, although you are my daughter's husband, we have different opinions!"

Su Zheng put on his boots and asked with a smile: "Did you have a good rest last night? My daughter received the teachings of the nuns in the palace before getting married, so you will definitely not be bored!"

"Ahem!"

Qi Sui coughed a few times in embarrassment. He didn't expect that Su Zheng, the king of a country, could say such arrogant words.

Su Nian's cheeks turned red with embarrassment at his words, and she couldn't help but said coquettishly: "Father, what are you doing!"

"Okay, okay, this is a matter for you young people, not your father's business!"

Under the service of the eunuch, Su Zheng put on his dragon robe with a smile and said: "Brother Qi, are you interested in attending this morning's court meeting? I have prepared a throne for you, so you can sit on an equal footing with me!"

"That's exactly what I meant!"

"Then come with me!"

Su Zheng had no airs about it and walked in front to lead the way.

Su Nian looked at the two people's leaving figures and followed after some thought.

At this time, the Shengtian Temple was already filled with civil and military officials who got up at five o'clock and came to attend the morning court.

Different from the usual atmosphere of relaxed conversation, the atmosphere in the hall today seemed a bit solemn.

Tension and worry could be seen on the expressions on every official's face. They stood in their respective positions, and no one was interested in talking. The endless silence made the atmosphere more and more depressing, which seemed to indicate that a storm was coming.

"Your Majesty has arrived——"

A gentle voice of announcement came from afar.

Su Zheng walked into the palace from the side door with dragon-like steps and tiger steps, swinging his sleeves and robes, and sat on the dragon chair symbolizing supremacy with a majestic look on his face.

He gave him a look, and Qi Sui sat majestically on the throne standing side by side with the dragon chair.

Throughout the dynasties, it was a great honor for a king with a different surname to be qualified to enter the court and listen to politics.

This was the first time that Qi Sui was treated with such special treatment.

But thinking about the other party's terrifying strength, no one would feel inappropriate!

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

All civil and military officials knelt down and worshiped.

"Everyone loves you!"

"If there is something going on, go ahead and leave if there is nothing going on!"

Su Zheng asked according to the procedure.

As soon as he finished speaking, an official in a black gold robe who was wearing the first rank of the imperial court came out. He knelt down in the center of the hall and reported in a trembling tone: "Your Majesty, according to the news from the front line, the Zishu Kingdom united A total of 500,000 elite troops from the Chang Chong Kingdom are approaching Jianmen Pass, intending to destroy our Divine Phoenix!"

"After that, they took the initiative to propose two peace terms!"

"First, cede ten cities to Zishu Kingdom, including the population in the cities, in exchange for their withdrawal!"

"Second, offer 10,000 young women, including His Highness Wuyou, to the Chang Chong Kingdom in exchange for them retreating!"

…
