Chapter 002: Walking Alone at Night with a Gun, a Long Howl Startles the Ghosts
Here, the natural Yin energy converges, making it most suitable for body forging techniques
Wang Xuan looked up in silence, feeling a sense of suffocation in his chest
The bearded soldier spoke as he lifted the pot lid and unwrapped the oil paper. A steaming aroma wafted through the air, and the freshly fried oil cakes were particularly crispy and golden.
It may appear chaotic, but the selection of locations for human settlements has its own intricacies, seemingly related to feng shui, the energy of the land, and the art of sealing deities, with its origins remaining somewhat unclear
Wang Xuan, having merged the memories of two lives, exhibits a blend of bravery and caution. Appearing to be in a feigned slumber, he is, in reality, like a bow drawn taut with an arrow, ready to spring forth and kill at any moment
Not long after leaving
Wang Xuan slightly nodded: "You two have worked hard, I will go out of the city for a while"
Yet the cold wind howls, and the bluestone pavement is devoid of any person
Wang Xuan suddenly awoke, firmly anchoring his mind, gradually forgetting himself
Having mastered the Corpse Dog Evil Wheel, the malevolent energy within the body is no longer like water without roots. From this point onward, it is possible to separate the malevolent energy from the body and also attach it to weapons
Hoo.
The internal Yin Sha has intensified to the utmost, gradually beginning to converge at the crown of the head, with the spirit of the corpse dog residing in the crown chakra, signifying the initial gathering of the first Sha wheel
However, Wang Xuan continued to stubbornly maintain her actions unchanged
Wang Xuan found it somewhat strange, but he was too lazy to pay it any further attention
The moonlight appeared somewhat blurred, and faintly from the depths of the street came the sounds of hooves and footsteps, as if a group of people was approaching.
Even more astonishingly, a bone-chilling cold wind surrounded Wang Xuan, and as he practiced his marksmanship, white frost danced in the air while the ground froze into ice
The sound of hooves grew closer, accompanied by a rustling and strange noises from behind
Of course, it is normal for living beings to stay away when malevolent energies converge
I ... ...
He strides forward with a tattered silver spear on his shoulder
Wang Xuan has dressed and emerged from nothingness
These are the Yin soldiers of the City God, transformed from ghostly entities by the temple priest.
These two are even more excited than Wang Xuan
The best aspect of this thing is that it operates without interruption
Wang Xuan contemplated for a moment, then continued to develop the Yin Sha Body Refinement Technique, and subsequently turned off the Bagua Plate
The old man slaughtered a new sheep, and yesterday he simmered it all night long, along with the oil cakes made by Wang's wife
Get lost
This time it is not about compensating for deficiencies, but rather about advancing the Yin Sha Body Refinement Technique to a higher level, which one can imagine will take a considerable amount of time
Great joy...
Upon thinking of this, he leaped onto a jagged boulder, resting his silver spear horizontally, sitting cross-legged, and slowly closed his eyes
Who
Upon exiting the city gate, Wang Xuan immediately accelerated
The next day, the autumn wind was bleak, yet it was a long-awaited sunny day
Wang Xuan stopped in his tracks and let out a cold snort
The howling of wolves faintly echoes in the mountains, as the hour of Zi arrives, and the world is shrouded in darkness.
The gunfire pierces the line like a dragon, stirring the cold wind to howl
Fortunately, in ten minutes
The corpse dog topped the wheel, and at this moment, the malevolent energy gathered into a mass. After he initially drew the malevolent energy into his body, his physique was as cold as ice, but now it had returned to normal
It must be said that the local guardian office maintains a serene and pure atmosphere, allowing countless ordinary citizens to live and work in peace. However, for cultivators, it is the remote and wild areas, far from human habitation, that are more suitable for their practice
what he did not realize was that
This is a place where the阴煞 gathers in the mountain hollow, exceptionally cold
Early in the morning, Liu Shun hurriedly ran in with an iron pot, his right little finger still hooked around an oil paper bag
Ten miles away from the county town, Wang Xuan suddenly stopped
The exhilaration of the body breaking through its limits
commonly known as挂机
Point, collapse, lift, entangle, the odd and the even are in harmony
Under the moonlight, the bizarre rocks are jagged and barren, seemingly shrouded in rising dark mist
I almost forgot, at this moment just past the fifteenth, the moonlight is at its brightest. Although there are no celestial gifts from the emperor, the妖狐 and wild spirits are quite exhilarated...
Not good, the seven emotions are concerning
Regardless, the sky is overcast and the ground is ominous, it is indeed a good opportunity for a breakthrough
Yong'an County is situated in a basin surrounded by mountains, with numerous villages of varying sizes scattered nearby, each village being protected by a land deity temple
In this world, demons and evil spirits are rampant, and the court naturally has countermeasures in place
After waiting for a while with nothing happening, I finally felt a bit more at ease
The Royal Family's Yin Sha Body Refinement Technique is incomplete, precisely the method of the Condensing Sha Wheel
It had not yet been experienced while at the military government office
I have met the esteemed person
... ...
This is the first realm of physical training in the art of war
This is the difficulty in mastering the basics of body forging techniques, which involves controlling one's body as a unified whole, a skill that takes a considerable amount of time to master
... ...
After experiencing it for a while, Wang Xuan continued to travel northward
Only the moon rises high in the sky like a disc, surrounded by a halo of light, its brilliance intoxicating. The entire county town has extinguished its lights, yet its full appearance remains visible.
Knock knock!
The incense and spirit path appears to be immortal, yet in reality, it has long been dispersed in consciousness. This City God, Cheng Huang, now only mechanically fulfills the duty of protecting the city-state, day after day, year after year
With the decline of the Town Evil Army, the Demon Suppression Division was established a century ago. It recruits practitioners from folk religious sects and also includes disciples from major sects for training, specifically tasked with slaying demons, eliminating evil spirits, and capturing rogue cultivators in the martial world
A cold wind blows against the neck
Wang Xuan ate with great relish, and as a thought crossed his mind, he opened the Bagua plate. His expression gradually stiffened, and the oil cake in his hand lost its flavor.
Aowu---
Zhang Heng eagerly clasped his hands and said: "My lord, if this matter is reported to Captain Zhao, you..."
The local City God, Chang Hu, served as the Town's Evil Subduing Officer. Before his death, he was granted the title of Earth Deity, and after his passing, he continued to protect the region, earning the deep respect of the people of Yong'an.
However, the moonlight was hazy, and in the small hollow, there was a profound silence; not even a mouse could be seen in the visible crevice between the north and south.
Hahaha ... ...
Progress: 0.1%
A full three hundred years
The two watchmen were startled by the shadow; the elder swiftly drew the sword from his waist with a clang, while the young man took out a signal flare barrel.
The practice of body forging eliminates various harmful energies, enhances the transformation of muscles, bones, and marrow, strengthens the physical body, and further advances one's strength and agility.
At the second watch of the Hai hour, be cautious of fire and candles, and guard against theft and burglary
The virtual divination board suddenly radiated brilliance
The City God goes on a巡游
None of the three is strange, just take a few steps back
No need!
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath
Advancement and Deduction of the Yin Sha Body Refinement Technique
Wang Xuanqing, dressed in military attire, raised his head to gaze while shouldering a tattered silver spear
Wang Xuan furrowed his brow and murmured
After waiting for half a day, there was no movement in the valley, just like any other day
The boulder grew increasingly cold, and white frost slowly formed.
As the cold wind howled against him, Wang Xuan felt his blood boiling with excitement
With this thought in mind, Wang Xuan's gaze became resolute as he strode purposefully towards the city gate
The Evil Suppression Army Headquarters is located in the north of the city and requires taking a detour along a street
Well, how did you become a school lieutenant...
Ah!
The two teams initially clasped their fists and cupped their hands in greeting, but soon their eyes brightened.
What Wang Xuan is going to is precisely the place where he usually cultivates
After a long time, the valley became ominously quiet, and the solid ice melted away
At this moment, the Yin Sha Body Refinement Technique has lost its incomplete markings
Just around the corner, two porters slowly approached; the one in front, with a weathered face, was striking a gong, while the one behind, with youthful features, was beating a clapper, clearly a master and his apprentice
Stepping out of the military government, the night has fallen dark.
Meanwhile, a wealth of information flooded into my mind
Block, take, bind, dance, like a soaring dragon
Wang Xuan slowly opened his eyes, a smile full of joy on his lips
A dry, cold mist gradually rises behind me
Wang Xuan has long transformed into instinct, drawing in the essence without harming the form or spirit
The art of war is a path of killing and conflict, emphasizing rapid results; how could it be without its drawbacks? Aside from the short lifespan, there is also the chilling and piercing cold of the sinister forces, where every inch of muscle feels as if it is being cut by a knife
The State Shrine oversees the lords of the world, city gods, and local deities, with royal masters and esteemed Buddhist and Taoist figures stationed to guard and suppress the region
It is precisely this clear division of labor that ensures the stability of the state
Although the Zhengxie Army Mansion in Yong'an County is dilapidated, it has the advantage of being peaceful and leisurely, as bandits are too lazy to come to this remote place
Wang Xuan knew at a glance what these two were thinking. He tossed a piece of oil cake into his mouth and confidently said: "There is no need to rush this matter. As the saying goes, a hidden dragon should not be used; one must lie low and gather strength before achieving great success and stability."
The extra shadows are mottled and varied, not resembling human forms, twisting their bodies and extending sharp claws, seemingly wanting to approach, yet hesitating in fear.
A sound of footsteps has appeared behind me, yet there is no one there
The two of them are also practicing military techniques, specifically the universally used Blood Fiend Body Refinement Technique in the army. Although they have not yet infused the fiendish energy into their bodies, they are well-informed and have discerned the differences.
Three hundred years ago, the Wei Dynasty collapsed dramatically. In that tumultuous era, prominent families rose in rebellion, and demons took the opportunity to create chaos. The ancestors of the Wang family also seized the chance to establish the title of "General of Bandit Suppression".
On the summit of Mingyue Mountain, a long-haired, bushy-tailed creature flashed and disappeared, burrowing into a hole, while a white, glistening human skull rolled on the ground...
In addition, there are also traditions of techniques within the public domain, such as the executioner who seals the knife to suppress evil, the night watchman who inspects the underworld, and the "Yin Master" who manages burial and funeral rites
The hour of the Rat is approaching, when the Yin energy is at its peak, and it must not be missed
more gloomy
In the dimly lit room, devoid of candlelight, Wang Xuan closed his eyes in contemplation. After a stick of incense had burned, he opened his eyes and sighed, "So it is!"
Most of the martial arts passed down through the community are ordinary body forging techniques, while the family secrets possess even greater power. It is estimated that the ancestors of the Wang family deliberately concealed the key points, but unexpectedly, the decline of the family led to their loss.
Swish
Wang Xuanping often comes here to practice, with not a trace of fear in his heart, and he strides into the mountain hollow in a quickened pace.
... ...
Wang Xuan did not pay any attention, raised the rotten silver spear, and stepped out the door
The strange shadow is called the Shadow Ghost, and the sound of footsteps belongs to the Hanging Boot Ghost. Both are small animals that possessed intelligence during their lifetime, but after death, their souls became ignorant, condensing malevolent energy and instinctively pursuing yang energy
The greatest fear can scare someone half to death while traveling at night, leading to illness from the shock
In the distance, the mountain forest is shrouded in darkness and gloom
What is strange to Wang Xuan is that he has already drawn the evil spirit into his body, and these little creatures usually instinctively avoid him; why have they suddenly gained the courage today
The dance of the gun resembles the moon, while beneath my feet, sand and stones fly.
He has been stuck in body refinement for a full two years, and he does not wish to wait even a moment longer
But now
Wang Xuan nodded and was about to leave when he suddenly looked into the distance
Wang Xuan laughed heartily and said, "It is just that the time is not yet right, stop the nonsense and bring me a bowl!"
The delicious lamb soup is generously drizzled with spicy oil, and the aroma of the scallion pancakes fills the air
Wang Xuan could no longer hold back and let out a long whistle
Liu Shun waved his hand dismissively, "Go, is there any sense of propriety? Quickly summon the adult..."
Wang Xuan suddenly opened his eyes, breathing in a rhythmic pattern of long and short breaths. At the same time, his entire body was cracking with the sound of joints, and his muscles tightened and contracted, gradually aligning with the rhythm of his heartbeat
Cool and refreshing, gentle and warm, as if the moonlight cleanses the lungs
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Before long, a valley appeared in the distance
Zhang Heng, who was training with a stone lock, was drooling as he exclaimed, "Ah, it smells so good! I really have a taste for this!" He threw down the stone lock with a thud and rushed over to grab it.
In light of the unusual circumstances, he also raised his vigilance
Zhang Heng's eye twitched at the corner, and he exchanged glances with Liu Shun, thinking to himself
Under the hazy moonlight, an additional shadow appeared before Wang Xuan.
Once they recognized that it was Wang Xuanhou, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief and quickly bent their bodies to clasp their fists, saying: "I have met Commander Wang."
Wang Xuanxiu practices the Yin Sha body refinement, while those who cultivate the Huo Sha will produce scenes of billowing smoke and raging flames
The two porters squinted their eyes and clasped their hands, saying: "My lord, be careful."
Wang Xuan smiled faintly and said, "Last night, I succeeded by a stroke of luck"
After a while, Wang Xuan put away his spear and stood still, his figure flickering and disappearing
... ...
Wang Xuan ceased to move forward, narrowing his eyes as he surveyed his surroundings
If encountered, a scolding will cause them to disperse
Wang Xuan waved his hand to interrupt, speaking arrogantly: "Shut your mouth, how could this lieutenant be someone who relies on connections to rise to power!"
A great joy that allows one to glimpse the heavens and the earth descends, akin to the birth of an infant, the leap of a fish over the dragon gate, and the corners of the eyes unexpectedly begin to moisten
Could it be the passing wild fox spirit...
Liu Shun said with a trembling voice: "The malevolent aura has subsided, my lord... have you broken through?"
Wang Xuanxin felt something and gazed at the vast sky
this unprecedented speed
However, in this world, there is no method that can satisfy both sides.
At this moment, the bright moon hung high in the sky, its light mingling with the shadows on the ground. As he continued to practice the body-forging technique, solid ice began to form on his body.
Swish
Wang Xuan laughed heartily, leaping six meters high, gripping a silver spear as he flipped and landed, demonstrating the Wang family's Youlong spear technique
The阴煞 in the mountain hollow has凝结 again
Liu Shun and Zhang Heng were puzzled: "What are we hiding for?"
The garrison soldiers only assemble during monthly training and when there are matters to attend to, so on ordinary days, the vast military office is only occupied by Wang Xuan and the two team leaders, Liu Shun and Zhang Heng
They are soldiers who have followed Wang Xuan, sharing their fortunes together. They initially thought they would have to spend their entire lives in this cursed place, with a bleak future ahead. Who would have thought that there would be unexpected surprises
Here it comes!
If it were in a past life, Wang Xuan would have been so frightened that his hair stood on end, but now he appeared calm and instead clasped his fists and bowed his hands.
The shadows dissipate and the cold wind swirls away
Congratulations, esteemed sir
With the muscles of the legs exerting force, the body leans forward, diagonally lifting the silver spear, each step spanning two to three meters, under the moonlight in the vast wilderness, like a sharp arrow flying through the air
Here, we have left the protective range of the city god, and the spiritual energy is no longer orderly, but rather a kind of leaping, lively, and wild essence
