Ruins of the past

It was the fifth day of the tenth month in the sixteenth year of Yong'an.

Chu Qiguang was sitting aside and saw two figures colliding violently on the martial arts field in front of him.

The sword in one of the hands exploded with light, and his energy and blood were like Yang. It was Jiang Longyu.

Another figure was carrying a hand behind his back, flashing back and forth like a leisurely stroll. It was the head coach Zhong Shan'e.

The figure of this powerful Taoist was like a blur of phantoms. Every time Jiang Longyu slashed with his sword... he couldn't even touch the corners of his clothes.

Zhong Shan'e's right hand disappeared for a moment, and with a series of thunderous roars in the field, the long knife in Jiang Longyu's hand shattered.

Jiang Longyu stopped panting, and Zhong Shan'e commented on it.

Then his figure flashed, accompanied by the roar of the wind... He disappeared for a few breaths and then reappeared, with a long knife in his hand.

Throwing the long sword to Jiang Longyu, Zhong Shan'e said: "Continue, while you practice sword skills, you must also temper your energy and blood to prepare for the fifth realm."

Looking at Zhong Shan'e's performance, Chu Qiguang sighed in his heart: 'In just a few breaths...he went to the warehouse? And took a knife? ’

‘Lei Xiao is known as the fastest celestial being in the world, and he truly deserves his reputation. ’

‘Even now I can’t clearly see the master’s movements. Is the gap between entering the Dao and the fifth realm...so big? ’

If Chu Qiguang was in the fourth realm, even if he couldn't defeat the fifth realm, he at least felt that he could escape.

But the closer Chu Qiguang got to the head coach during this period, the more he felt the power of a powerful Taoist.

Not only was he unable to defeat him, he was not even qualified to escape.

At this moment, Chu Qiguang's yearning for entering the Tao became more and more intense.

The chief instructor looked at Chu Qiguang and shouted: "Chu Qiguang, don't stop practicing the blood-activating method."

"The sooner you master the first level of blood-activating method, the faster you will practice."

…

It was early October in the 16th year of Yong'an.

After possessing the power of the Dragon's Eye, Chu Qiguang discovered that when he meditated on the "Sutra of Mount Sumeru King", he could see how much time it would take to meditate before he could enter the Tao.

However, 4920 days means that Chu Qiguang needed to study the "Sutra of Mount Sumeru King" without sleep, eating or drinking for a full thirteen or four years.

Not to mention whether Chu Qiguang could endure such a long period of time, the risk of becoming possessed by the long-term enlightenment alone was too high.

‘It’s been so long, I’ll be in my thirties by the time I enter Taoism. ’

‘Then wouldn’t my qualifications be worse than those of the head coach? ’

Chu Qiguang thought it was impossible.

Judging from his rich experience of practicing martial arts for more than a year, he has never met anyone with better qualifications than him. Whether it is Jiang Longyu, Yi Siman or the chief instructor... none of them have as good qualifications as him.

‘So…if there’s something wrong with my eyes, it’s because my cultivation method is not right enough. ’

'Just like "Thunder Roar" and "Xumi Moving Mountain Strength", simple enlightenment is the slowest way, and other methods need to be used to improve efficiency and increase the possibility of entering the Tao. ’

Just as Chu Qiguang imagined, after reading Buddhist scriptures, he found that each different Buddhist scriptures could shorten his countdown to enlightenment by about 20 hours.

‘The power of dragon eyes...sees the way forward. ’

‘The biggest role of this countdown is actually to allow me to constantly correct the direction of my cultivation. ’

…

It was mid-October, the 16th year of Yong'an.

"Iron Arm Kung Fu."

"Externally strong and hard skills can be cultivated to be strong and powerful."

Chu Qiguang looked at the secret book in front of him, and lines of words jumped out in his eyes: "3 days, 04 hours, 45 minutes and 12 seconds."

This iron arm skill was one of the dozen or so secret books that Yang Ling found for him.

"The Demon-Suppressing Division believes that the Diamond Interpretation Technique, Steel Iron Bone Kung Fu, and Hunyuan Taiyi Qigong can increase the chance of entering the Tao in "Xumi Moving Mountain Strength."

"What about other hard skills?"

Now Chu Qiguang wants to try to practice this iron arm skill to see if this extra skill can not reduce his time to study the "Sumishan King Sutra".

A few days later, as Qi and blood circulated in Chu Qiguang's hands, big tendons collapsed. The concentration of Qi and blood made his arms turn purple and black, as if they were covered with a layer of iron armor.

When he went to meditate on the Sumeru King Sutra the next day, he found that the countdown had decreased by one hour.

‘It took three days of practice to reduce one hour? ’

‘The gain outweighs the loss. ’

Chu Qiguang frowned when he saw this: 'It seems that the 'Vajra Interpretation Technique' and 'Steel Steel Iron Bone Technique' collected by the Hunter School are really unique in something? ’

However, the 'Iron Arm Kung Fu' that he had just practiced for three days was the most superficial and hard-working technique, so Chu Qiguang found another more profound secret book.

"Heavenly Blood Qi."

"Strengthen the muscles and bones on the outside, strengthen the internal organs on the inside."

"78 days, 18 hours, 43 minutes and 57 seconds."

Chu Qiguang silently put down the secret book. It was impossible to practice hard. Only by reading more in the big library and swimming in the ocean of knowledge could he become faster.

Chen Gang in the distance was blowing his hands while grabbing the burnt egg cake and sighed: "Are you strong again? This heat is too difficult to control."

…

It was late October in the 16th year of Yong'an.

The energy and blood all over Chu Qiguang's body suddenly accelerated, and waves of heat came out of his body and swept through the entire room.

‘This is the first level of the blood-activating method. ’

In the past month, he has spent some time practicing this auxiliary magic skill every day. Today, he finally mastered it. Chu Qiguang felt that the energy and blood all over his body were accelerating in waves.

‘By the way, the blood-activating method can speed up the circulation of qi and blood and improve the efficiency of cultivation. ’

Chu Qiguang took out the secret book of Heavenly Blood Gangqi again and looked at it.

"48 days, 6 hours, 34 minutes and 22 seconds."

"After the first level of blood-activating method, the training time of this martial art is reduced by 30 days?"

Chu Qiguang's eyes lit up instantly.

…

At the end of October, the 16th year of Yong'an.

In the big library.

Today is the reading time agreed with the janitor again.

Chu Qiguang thought to himself: 'If the gift this time is to improve martial arts, then try to improve the blood-activating method. ’

He could still read the "Corpse Code" this time, but most of the content still seemed like crazy words, making it difficult for people to understand.

Because the knowledge in the "Corpse Book" can see and attract ghosts, for Lin Lan's safety this time, Chu Qiguang tricked her into finding Buddhist scriptures for him outside the room.

Only Chu Qiguang and the gatekeeper were left at the scene.

At this moment, Chu Qiguang suddenly paused and saw that there seemed to be different handwriting on the page, as if another person had written it in a hurry.

Although there were signs of haste, the handwriting was still graceful, giving Chu Qiguang a sense of familiarity.

‘People have learned so much. ’

‘You might become a demon. ’

‘Ghosts become demons after death. ’

‘So ghosts also pursue knowledge. ’

‘Those who possess knowledge can’t help but pursue more knowledge. ’

'But beware, they will also be pursued by knowledge, which will turn them into demons or ghosts. ’

‘Because knowledge and knowledge attract each other. ’
