Martial Arts From Bandits

  Chapter 33 Second-Rate Realm!

   "It's Jun'er coming!" Shi Yi heard the movement, opened his closed eyes,

   These days, he is getting more and more sleepy,

  He knew he was running out of time!

   "The grandson is here."

   "I have good news for you. These days, a man named Zhang Jing is coveting here,"

   "He and Zhang Mazi had a close fight, this is my chance in Shicun,"

   "When they really decide to live and die, that's when our Shicun will really appear in front of the world,"

   "It's been a long time, so long that they have forgotten the power of our stone village, do you think this is good news!" Shi Yi's eyes were still full of light.

  Shi Jun lowered his head, "I let grandpa down, and I haven't broken through to the second rate."

   "How far is Jun'er now?"

   "My grandson hit the Shangdu acupoint several times without breaking through. I'm going to retreat in a few days. I must pass this test and be promoted to the second-rate, so as to revitalize my Shi family's prestige," Shi Jun's eyes sparkled, and he made up his mind.

   "Second rate, second rate," Shi Yi muttered to himself,

   This is his previous realm, but now he can't exert his second-rate strength.

   "Shangdu is the last pass of the third-rate, and it is extremely difficult to break through, otherwise there would not be so many third-rate masters stuck here,"

  Shi Yi also decided that Zhang Mazi would not be able to break through to the second rate in a short time, so he let him search for resources. One of the important reasons was this.

  Hearing this, Shi Jun lowered his head and said nothing.

   "But," Shi Yi said halfway,

  Shi Jun raised his head and looked at Shi Yi with hope in his eyes.

  Looking at his grandson's face, Shi Yi smiled, took out a handkerchief from his pocket,

  Open it slowly, for fear of damaging it, even Shi Jun.

  After the handkerchief was opened, there was something similar to a tree root inside, which looked ordinary.

  Shi Yi’s eyes are full of memories and treasures,

   "This is a small half of the elixir that I got by accident ten years ago,"

   "Elixir!" Shi Jun almost couldn't help shouting out,

  What is the elixir? Of course he has heard of the ten-year-old medicine, the hundred-year-old elixir, and the legend of the thousand-year magic medicine.

  However, the best medicine he came across was from the 90s,

  Elixirs have only been heard of, never seen,

  The magical medicine was only recorded in ancient books,

   Unexpectedly, what was in front of him was the legendary panacea.

  Shi Jun stared at the elixir that looked like a dead tree root, dazed. This thing looks very ordinary!

   "That's right, it's the elixir. I got it by accident back then, but unfortunately my true qi didn't reach perfection at that time, and my qi and blood were a bit decayed,"

   "I'm not willing to use it, otherwise I wouldn't have kept it until now," Shi Yi murmured, looking at the half of the elixir in his hand with a little regret.

   "This thing is not like a big medicine. Big medicine can't be swallowed directly as a cultivation resource. You can only eat a small amount to replenish blood, otherwise it will be accumulated in the body and cannot be digested, which is harmful to practice."

   "And you can't take too much medicine, otherwise those things that can't be digested will become poisonous. We can only use special prescriptions to lay a good foundation for children to practice martial arts and build a good body"

  Shi Yi paused, then changed his voice,

   "The elixir is different. According to the legend, each elixir must go through a hundred years of lightning to take shape,"

   "Elixirs are spiritual. Each plant is the essence of heaven and earth. It is completely harmless to the human body and can be directly absorbed by people. It has huge benefits."

   "It can directly improve the cultivation of true qi in the body. It is extremely rare in the market, and I only got it by chance."

  After saying that, Shi Yi looked at Shi Jun who was kneeling on the ground again, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes,

   "The elixir has huge energy and can be absorbed directly. If you swallow it, it is very likely that you will use this huge energy to break through the Shangdu acupoint."

  After listening to Shi Yi's words, Shi Jun shook his head again and again, "Since this elixir has such an effect, I'd better ask Grandpa to swallow it, maybe it can restore some blood."

  “I believe that I can break through by myself,”

  Shi Jun knows that Shi Yi's health is not very good now, maybe after using the elixir, he can improve his body and live a few more years,

  Shi Yi has done enough for him.

   "Boom," Shi Yi's weak body stood up straight at this time, and patted the table beside him.

  Shi Jun quickly got up and wanted to support Shi Yi, fearing that something might go wrong,

   "I don't need your help, you, you kneel down for me," Shi Yi broke away from the holding hand and pointed at Shi Jun beside him with an angry shout.

  Shi Jun quickly knelt on the ground,

   "Do you know what a great opportunity this is. Zhang Jing and Zhang Mazi will have a battle recently. They are evenly matched in strength. Even if one side wins, it will have to pay a huge price."

   "My Shi family can reap the benefits without too many casualties. I have waited for this opportunity for several years,"

   "Now you swallow the elixir and break through to the second-rate, I, Shicun, can really stand up and restore our former glory,"

   "It's not here, cough, cough," Shi Yi coughed, clutching his chest.

   "As long as you can break through to the second-rate, everything I, Shi Yi, has done is worthwhile. Why did I defy all opinions and appoint you as the next patriarch?"

   "Isn't it just for this day? Now you are only one step away from success, but you have to rely on yourself to gamble. If you can't break through, should we wait until you break through?"

   "You have failed to break through several times, so will you be able to succeed this time?"

   "You are nearly thirty years old now. Although your blood is at its peak, if you can't break through for a long time, after fifty, your blood will start to decline, and you will have no chance to break through,"

   "Furthermore, Zhang Jing, will Zhang Mazi give us this chance? As long as they decide the winner, their first target will be me, Shicun," Shi Yi roared hysterically.

  The people outside the door heard the voice from inside and wanted to go in, but remembered that Shi Jun was still inside and stopped.

  Kneeling on the ground, Shi Jun's eyes were red, his hands were tightly clenched, his nails had been inserted into his flesh, and traces of blood dripped down.

   "Grandson, grandson knows," Shi Jun said with a sob.

  Seeing Shi Jun let go, Shi Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly:

   "I know you are filial, Jun'er, but I am already old. Even if I use this thing, how many years can I live? The future of Shicun depends on you after all,"

   "I know you won't let me down!"

  Shi Jun left, took the elixir and left. Shi Yi looked at Shi Jun's back and smiled, and hesitantly sat on the chair, but his figure seemed to be older.

  On the same day, Shi Jun announced his retreat!

   Thanks to the book friends, for the rewards of smoking!

Thanks for the support! (These words are really hard to type, manual is funny, hehe)

   Thank you thank you!

   This chapter is very cool. I feel that the writing style has improved a little bit.

hey-hey,
