Great Xuanwu Sheng

Blood exchange!

Blood is the root of the martial body, the foundation of the real existence of living beings, and the key to connecting "qi" and "body".

The martial body is flesh under the skin, and the flesh contains tendons. The tendons surround the bones, and the internal organs and the deep jade marrow. Only "blood" runs through the whole body, from the internal organs and bone marrow to the skin, flesh and fascia, which is the root of everything.

It can be said that the practice of tempering the body martial arts, from grinding the skin and training the flesh to the state of washing the marrow to cultivate the martial body, is to pile up parts from the outside to the inside, condense them to perfection, and finally use the step of blood exchange to completely integrate them!

Before blood exchange

The internal energy of the martial artist is all gathered by the five internal organs swallowing and exhaling the power of heaven and earth, and then gathered together. After taking the step of blood exchange, the martial blood completely penetrates all parts of the body, and will be able to transport blood and qi from the martial body, condensing the internal energy of the martial blood, which also means the complete completion of the "inner world", so that the power is possessed in the blink of an eye.

It is actually almost impossible to exchange blood in the marrow washing realm, because even the first nine Qiankun masters who entered the marrow washing with the way of Qiankun in the past dynasties, who are known as invincible among the masters, are still not the opponents of any blood exchange realm. At most, they can only escape from the hands of the blood exchange realm.

Because they do not have the power of penetration and cannot fully exert the power of the martial body.

Just like ordinary people, if they can exert 20% to 30% of their muscle strength, they are already quite masters. Martial artists can exert 40% to 50% when practicing skills, and 70% to 80% when they reach the master level, until the blood exchange stage, that is the real achievement, which can exert the body to the extreme and use the power of every drop of blood to the extreme!

Now.

Chen Mu has been in this world for 15 years and has practiced martial arts for nearly 13 years. After going through the seven stages of grinding skin, training flesh, changing tendons, strengthening bones, refining organs, strengthening organs, and washing marrow, he finally came to the threshold of blood exchange and jumped over it!

Almost at the moment when Chen Mu's skull was completely connected, the power of heaven and earth within a radius of more than ten miles began to violently turbulent, and with Chen Mu as the center, it surged towards him!

Crash.

These waves of heaven and earth power are like tides, penetrating from Chen Mu's head, pouring into his body along the top of his head, rushing to his limbs, penetrating all blood vessels and meridians, washing every piece of skin and flesh, every inch of meridians, and even every drop of blood in his body!

This process is not so comfortable, almost like a thousand needles piercing, all over the body, deep into the flesh, this feeling can't even be blocked, because all the senses of the whole body are almost awakened by the surging power of heaven and earth, so sharp that Chen Mu can even clearly feel the existence of every drop of blood in his body!

However.

This kind of pain is nothing for a person who can take the step of blood exchange. It is enough to make ordinary people faint in an instant, and even torture them for countless times between fainting and waking up. For those who have condensed their martial arts will to the extreme and have a heart as clear as a mirror, they can also bear it calmly.

However, Chen Mu at this moment was not only enduring the pain of the cleansing of his flesh and blood, but also the training of his heart and soul. At the moment when his gate of enlightenment was opened, his heart and soul, although still existing in his body, were no longer protected by his body, but were completely exposed between heaven and earth, and like his body, they were subjected to the scouring of the power of heaven and earth!

At this moment.

If you look at Chen Mu from a distance, you can see that Chen Mu is sitting cross-legged, and his clothes have long been disintegrated under the surging power of heaven and earth, turning into dust and disintegrating, leaving only the peerless and tyrannical Qiankun martial body, and his whole body is like the scorching sun, radiating with unparalleled blood, enough to burn everything!

And on the top of his head, there is a faint halo radiating, like a bright moon reflecting, and the flesh and blood that is as magnificent as the scorching sun.

This is the vision of a warrior impacting a blood exchange.

The scorching sun is approaching!

The bright moon is overhead!

The soul is an extremely illusory thing for a warrior. Before entering the blood transfusion, the warrior's soul is hidden deep in the body. In fact, it is better to say that it is a part of the body and it is impossible to separate it. The so-called death of the body and the extinction of the soul, only at the moment of death, the soul and the body return to silence.

Only at the blood transfusion stage, the warrior's soul is separated from the body in a real sense for the first time and shows its essence. It is not a villain like the original body described in many strange stories, but a halo hanging above the head, like a bright moon.

Chen Mu can feel that his extremely strong soul power nourished by the red fruit is gradually being consolidated under the scouring and cleansing of the power of heaven and earth, and gradually seems to be condensed into substance, which can be truly manifested between heaven and earth.

At the same time

He could also clearly feel the vastness of the entire Daxuan world, the boundlessness of this world, and even a sense of freedom, which made his soul seem to rise to the sky, return to the world, and overlook the world.

At this moment, the pain of the thousands of needles piercing his body was almost like sinking into the sea of ​​suffering in the world. The darkness he experienced in the first two years of his arrival in this world, the scenes of crawling at the bottom, constantly appeared in front of Chen Mu's eyes, and even his deeper memories were a little vague, and the many hardships and pains he experienced in his previous life also appeared in his sight.

Escape.

It seemed that there was such a voice tempting him.

It seems that as long as he thinks, he can completely get rid of all the suffering, escape the sea of ​​suffering, gain detachment and great freedom, no longer suffer the pain of the world, and no longer have to experience torture and suffering.

On one side is the mundane world full of pain and thorns, on the other side is the vast world, everything seems distinct.

"Is this the so-called life and death situation..."

However, when Chen Mu faced this temptation, there was no ups and downs in his heart. His mind was never confused in the slightest, and he always remained clear-headed. He just sighed slightly in his heart.

It is indeed difficult to attack the blood exchange step. The martial arts will must be truly condensed to the extreme. Only with the will to move forward, the determination not to look back, and the clarity of mind that can stop water, can we be able to accept the whole process calmly.

now.

If you waver a little and want to get rid of the pain, then your true soul has returned to heaven and you have passed away on the spot.

People born in heaven and earth carry the cause and effect from heaven and earth. If you want to reach the top of heaven and earth and pursue the path beyond heaven and earth, the pain and suffering you endure are all hardships. Anyone who has any intention of escaping will not be able to achieve enlightenment.

After all, he, Chen Mu, was born as a mere mortal, not a born Holy Spirit. If he did not undergo step-by-step transformation and climb up the ladder step by step, how could he be qualified to be on par with heaven and earth? !

The suffering in his heart and soul was almost like a passing cloud to Chen Mu.

Not to mention the physical suffering, only those whose martial arts training is not strong enough, or have some flaws or hidden wounds, will break out during the impact of blood exchange and turn into a huge disaster, but Chen Mu His Qiankun martial body is flawless and can withstand the training of the power of heaven and earth. It is almost as unshakable as a rock.

"After passing this level, it's time to change blood."

Chen Mu felt his heart surge for a moment. After thirteen years of hard training, he was finally able to cross the thick sea of ​​clouds and reach the pinnacle of body tempering martial arts. While his soul and body were undergoing training, he recalled all the past events and felt as if he was snapping his fingers. In a flash.

And almost when Chen Mu took that step forward and entered the realm of blood exchange, far away from the underwater cave where he was retreating, in the dark trench, a figure with a condensed aura like a stubborn stone suddenly opened his eyes.

It is none other than Emperor Xuan Ji Yongzhao!

He cast his gaze towards the place where Chen Mu was retreating, and a deep light flashed in his eyes. His perception of the realm of heaven and man opened up in an instant, and his eyes almost penetrated through the layers of rocks, and he saw the things in the cave where Chen Mu was retreating. scene.

"The scorching sun is here, and the bright moon is at your head!"

Ji Yongzhao took a slight breath, his eyes blazing for a moment.

After all, it was a perfect martial body prepared by God for him, and its foundation was so strong that it was indeed almost unbelievable!

Ordinary warriors in the Marrow Cleansing Realm can only show the vision of "the scorching sun is approaching and the bright moon is shining above" when they are about to achieve success in the end. However, Chen Mu has already shown this phenomenon in one step. What a sight!

Just as he had expected before, Chen Mu would probably have no bottlenecks in entering the blood exchange realm. To him, that threshold was like a thin layer of window paper, which could be broken with one poke without any hindrance.

Without further ado!

Chen Mu's foundation is too strong, and even his heart and soul seem to be very strong. If Chen Mu is allowed to be washed away and refined by the power of heaven and earth, for a short period of time, he may not be able to steal Chen Mu's martial body!

Ji Yongzhao stood up and walked towards the cave where Chen Mu was. For him, he had reached the distance of more than ten miles in an instant and was outside the closed submarine cave.

Immediately afterwards.

He did not hesitate at all, nor did he break open the cave wall. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the rock. In an instant, the energy and blood in his body surged. He mobilized a large amount of the root power of the Qiankun Martial Body, and his whole face changed rapidly. become pale.

This extremely condensed billowing energy and blood finally boiled in the deepest part of his body, surrounding his heart and soul, and forcefully broke out of his body through the entrance hall on the top of his skull, like a boiling sun wrapped in a bright crescent moon. !

Buzz!

The moment the heart and soul left the body, a huge pressure from heaven and earth suddenly came down.

Even if they are masters of heaven and man, they cannot actually completely separate their soul from the body and achieve such a thing as "wandering around the world". Their thoughts can blend with the heaven and earth and achieve the unity of heaven and man, but the premise is that the body is used as the body. Fundamentally, just as it is impossible for a warrior to achieve the third step of artistic conception without a blood exchange, once the heart and soul are truly separated from the body, they are nothing but rootless duckweeds!

The same goes for Ji Yongzhao at this moment.

If his heart and soul were to be separated from the body and wander between heaven and earth, then it would not take a moment or three to completely disappear into ashes, disappear from heaven and earth, and fall into silence.

Even if he mobilized most of his energy and blood as support and support, he would not be able to last long between heaven and earth.

But that's enough!

He doesn't want to do anything to travel around the world, he just wants his heart and soul to break away from his body, get rid of the shackles and come between heaven and earth, and then he can follow the trend of heaven and earth!

At this moment, Chen Mu was in the process of exchanging blood, attracting the power of heaven and earth to fill his body. The power of heaven and earth within a radius of more than ten miles was centered on him, and was pulled in like a whirlpool, rolling in.

The moment Ji Yongzhao's separated heart and soul completely got rid of the body and came between heaven and earth, it was swept away by the power of heaven and earth, and rushed straight towards Chen Mu in the center, without him needing to control it!

"Um?"

Chen Mu, who was undergoing the cleansing of heaven and earth, noticed the abnormality as soon as Ji Yongzhao's body came to the seabed cave where he was in seclusion. However, he did not care too much, because although he was undergoing the scouring and cleansing of heaven and earth at this moment, his foundation was too solid. Even in this state, he was not without the power to fight.

The only thing was that this uninvited guest had a very strange aura and was not a familiar figure like the Xuanji Pavilion Master.

Before he could think about who this person was, he sensed that the other party seemed to have made a huge movement, causing a violent fluctuation between heaven and earth. Immediately, he saw that in the surging power of heaven and earth from all directions, a ball of blazing fire was wrapped up and rushed straight towards him!

This ball of fire completely followed the trend of heaven and earth, forming a backflow trend, and was about to pour into his body from the top of his head!

"Soul?"

At this moment, Chen Mu also clearly sensed the source of the fire. It was a soul force engulfed by the surging blood and qi, which was the same essence as his heart and soul that was being cleansed by heaven and earth at this moment!

Although he didn't know what the other party was going to do, at this moment, Chen Mu really couldn't interrupt the impact of the blood exchange realm. Once he interrupted it forcibly, his gate and heart and soul would definitely be damaged, just like Qin Mengjun back then.

In this moment.

The heart and soul engulfed by the blazing blood and qi poured down from the sky and crashed into Chen Mu's heart and soul.

Boom!!!

This was a collision between the heart and soul. The scene in the cave was almost silent, with only a few tiny sparks bursting out, but at the level of consciousness, it was like a thunder, exploding the dark world!

Chen Mu's soul, which was originally located at the top of his head and was cleansed by the heaven and earth, sank slightly into his body after the impact, and the bright moon hanging above his head sank halfway into his body.

On the other side.

The soul light wrapped in the fiery blood flew back three feet under the impact, and the blood wrapped in it almost collapsed at once, and the soul inside, which was like a bright moon, suddenly became dim.

Chen Mu seemed to hear a cry of pain, and there was a bit of shock in this cry.

"This is impossible!"

Before Chen Mu could make more reactions.

But seeing that the soul light wrapped in the fiery blood suddenly became stronger again, following the momentum of heaven and earth, it once again hit Chen Mu's gate, as if it wanted to forcibly smash Chen Mu's soul and break into his body from his gate!

"Humph."

Seeing this, Chen Mu felt a chill in his heart.

Although he still hadn't figured out the specific situation at this time, he was roughly sure of one thing. This was a means of attacking his soul, and they wanted to take advantage of his blood transfusion to destroy his soul!

As for the future, either they wanted to use his body to refine some kind of heavenly corpse, or as he thought, they wanted to forcibly steal his body, which was nothing more than these evil means.

"Unorthodox methods!"

Facing the crisis at this moment, Chen Mu was calm and fearless, his will was not shaken at all, and the whole person was motionless. Inside the body that was being cleansed by the power of heaven and earth, a surge of blood and qi exploded and surged up!

If there was no red fruit to condense his soul, the collision just now would have most likely caused his soul to suffer severe damage. Even if he still had the power to resist, the situation would definitely not be very good.

But now it is different!

The strength of his condensed soul power, even if it has not yet undergone a complete cleansing of heaven and earth, is almost as strong as that of a true master of heaven and man, and the opponent's soul broke out of the body, and was a rootless duckweed, while his soul was completely exposed between heaven and earth, with no way to retreat, but he had a body to rely on!

His Qiankun martial body foundation is so strong that even now, under the cleansing of the power of heaven and earth, he can still force a stream of blood and energy to rush against the gate of the heart and soul!

The vigorous blood and energy surrounded the soul moon, dyeing it into a ball of red, and finally collided with the attacking soul moon again.

Boom!!!

There is no skill in the collision between the soul and the soul, it is just a real hard fight. This time, the collision made Chen Mu's consciousness faint for a short time, but he recovered again in a moment.

On the other side, the soul light that collided with him, and the fiery blood energy it carried, almost completely disintegrated under this collision, and even the soul light inside it, the "bright moon", also had four or five cracks!

"Ah!"

A scream full of pain came from the shattered bright moon.

Finally, he dared not to continue to fight with Chen Mu, but saw the dim moonlight surrounding him, forcibly gathering the remaining blood energy that was almost disintegrated, wrapping the soul body, and staggeringly fled out of the cave.
