The Lord who use immortals as food

When Pei Ye came to the county government office, Chang Zhiyuan had not returned yet. Shen Yanping was sitting in the yard polishing his thin sword, while Feng Zhi was squatting aside to examine a euphorbia taken out from the military library. and a suit of heavy armor.

"Wearing this, I'm afraid I won't even be able to touch the corners of other people's clothes."

"You can't touch it in the first place, but if you put this on, you can get two more hits."

Shen Yanping shook his head and laughed.

"Mom, if you don't use it for a long time, the rope will rot - boy, you came just in time to tie these two armor leaves."

Pei Ye came to the two of them and squatted down, leaning his sword on the stone bench and making a "clang" sound.

Feng Zhi raised his head and glanced: "If we are really defeated, it is best not to take this sword out of its sheath, and immediately escape into the mountains and head towards the city. There is still a glimmer of hope."

Shen Yanping sighed softly: "If one person escapes, it is just another person who dies, just like last night..."

Pei Ye said: "Are you two adults worried that that person will take action in advance?"

"The officer just reported to Master Chang that there are no signs of arrests, but who knows if he is waiting for us to gather all the talented people in the city and then select seven?" Shen Yanping shook his head, "Know the enemy. Too few, and there is no way to prepare for it. The most dangerous period should be the two hours when people are gathered behind the county government office and Captain Jingdu arrives."

Pei Ye pursed her lips and said, "I can also help defend against the enemy."

Before Shen Yanping could speak, Feng Zhi frowned and raised his head: "I remember, didn't you fail to break the seed?"

"Yes." Pei Ye said, "But I know a swordsmanship, so I might be able to use it."

"..." Feng Zhi rolled his eyes, "Young people always have a sense of self-confidence."

Shen Yanping smiled, raised his eyebrows and said solemnly: "Thank you, Shaoxia Pei, for your kindness and bravery. But Shaoxia Pei protects himself with all his strength and prevents the murderer from succeeding. This is our common victory."

Pei Ye was silent and nodded.

Shen Yanping suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled again: "Actually, the situation is not so critical, but I am just worrying too much. If the other party can arrest people in advance, the best way would be to arrest twelve people at once, and then hide them in the mountains. The ceremony will be held in three days. Judging from the current situation, it is likely that they were able to communicate with some mysterious power during the ceremony and thus lock down the candidate. By that time, Captain Jing Du had already arrived."

To be honest, this is indeed the current objective situation, but Feng Zhi and Shen Yanping are like candidates who are confident after the exam but anxious before the results are released. Whenever there is a slight possibility of an accident, they will inevitably become worried.

Pei Ye hesitated for a moment, clasped his fists and said, "Young man has little knowledge, dare I ask if the crisis will be resolved when the Captain arrives?"

This time not only Shen Yan smiled, but Feng Zhi also curled up his lips.

Shen Yanping said: "Mr. Lin, there are five lives in the Meridian Tree. Judging from the traces, the murderer should be in the seventh life. He is indeed a rare master. But Captain Jing had already pondered in the realm of Eight Lives in the Meridian Tree ten years ago. This year At the beginning of the year, Xuanhe finally hangs up his clothes, and now he will be honored as a master."

Pei Ye was stunned, this was really foolproof.

To talk about "Dantian seeds" and "meridian trees", we must start from the beginning and clarify the concept of martial arts.

Whether it is a martial arts hall, a family home, a sect, or the army, when ordinary people start to practice, the first lesson is always "What is martial arts?"

What is martial arts? In the eyes of ordinary people, it means "being able to fight". Like Pei Ye, who can wield a sword, fly over walls and walls, and win in combat, he is considered a "first-class master" in a small county. But to put it bluntly, this is still just a matter of being stronger, jumping farther, reacting faster, plus practicing weapons all year round, practice makes perfect.

"Real martial arts... is something that can make you become a different kind of person." Pei Ye remembered what Grandpa Yue said.

Why can picking leaves and flying flowers pierce people's necks? Why can a man weighing more than 100 pounds stand on a branch and fly across water? And how to transmit sounds into secrets and retrieve objects from a distance?

All this can only be accomplished after the seed in the Dantian splits into two small buds, which is the so-called "meridian tree lifetime". With the meridian tree, there is true energy. Without true energy, even if you can fight, you will not be considered a beginner. You will just be a "landlubber" that experts ridicule.

Pei Ye is now a quite strong "land duck".

With these two small buds, they will then divide into four branches, that is, the vein tree will grow into two branches, then three branches into eight branches, four branches into sixteen branches, and finally it can branch out eight times, reaching the number of two hundred and fifty-six.

The size of the meridian tree is directly linked to the amount of true energy. By understanding this mechanism, you can have a rough judgment on the strength of the warrior.

The gap between practitioners who are in the third life and below, and whose meridians are two, four, or eight, and the "landlubbers" are not yet too far apart.

At this stage, although Zhenqi has infinite uses, and there is a huge difference between those who have it and those who have it, but after all, fighting is not about size. Many factors such as strength, skill, experience, environment, and even weapons can bridge the gap caused by Zhenqi. Pei Ye In the Mid-Autumn Festival martial arts competition, if you go against a few seniors who have been born in the Meridian Tree for two or three years, you will often get the upper hand.

But having said that, this kind of defeating the strong by the weak basically stops at three lives or less.

The fourth life is eight to sixteen, the fifth life is sixteen to thirty-two, and the sixth life is thirty-two to sixty-four. This explosive growth has far exceeded the limit of human physical strength.

From now on, even if you are born with divine power and the other party is born with a weak body, they will not be able to offset the strong and strong Qi to a certain extent. What's more, the opponent's biggest advantage is not the physical blessing of true energy. More importantly, people without true energy simply don't understand the magical effects of true energy, and they can't get used to the opponent's attack method. You think this sword move is old, but the opponent's flip of the wrist is a stronger slash; you think the opponent has nowhere to rely on in the air, but the opponent can just sweep across the air.

Even if you hear these things, you don't have time to think and react when facing an enemy.

There are all kinds of incredible angles, all kinds of unconstrained ideas, and the comprehensive improvement of the five senses such as ears, eyes, mouth, and nose. The "impossible" that landlubbers are used to is just a casual blow to those who have mastered the true energy.

"Zhen Qi" has almost completely changed the martial arts theory of warriors. Coupled with various mysterious uses, it is indeed not an exaggeration to call Kai Mai warriors "another kind of person".

But by the time they reached the 128 meridians of the Seventh Life and the 256 meridians of the Eighth Life, this abnormal growth had completely distanced them from the people below.

Four may be able to beat five. For example, if Feng Zhi and Lin Lin fight twenty games, they may be able to win one. Five can occasionally beat six, such as those young heroes from famous families, but six wins seven and seven wins eight. The results have always been rare.

Some people advocate that the seven lives and eight lives should be listed as separate realms, which is not unreasonable.

As for the state of the meridian tree after it is fully formed, it has nothing to do with the vast majority of people, nor has it anything to do with the word "武". That is the position of the Jingdu captain. "On Wu" says that "the foundation of Xuanmen" The jade steps transform life into the universe, and you can climb up to the fairy tower in the sky." There, warlocks and warriors will reach the same destination through different paths.
