Pu pu!
One by one, the moths flew towards the oil lamp, advancing towards the light in their hearts!
The three figures constantly swayed in the flickering light.
Xiao Chen's words caused the two of them to bitterly laugh. After all, they had come to persuade Xiao Chen, so they had expected a few scenarios. Unfortunately, they had only predicted the process correctly, but not the ending. They had never imagined that this would happen.
The two of them still believed in Xiao Chen. Otherwise, the two of them would have supported Xiao Chen as the next chief after the disappearance of the previous chief. Although Xiao Chen was the son of the previous chief, Xiao Chen's own abilities also played a large part. After all, the lives of the tribe's tens of thousands of tribesmen were not to be trifled with.
They could not be casually entrusted to a young man who did not know the gravity of the situation.
The two of them exchanged glances and chose to believe in Xiao Chen. In any case, the tribe's crisis would not last for a few more days. It was better to treat it as a last resort. Who knows, there might be a miracle.
Even if there was no change in the next few days, Xiao Chen could still learn a lesson and think of other ways to make him give up.
"We also know this. There are indeed some traitors in the tribe that need to be cleaned up. They thought that their actions were extremely secretive, but the tribe's crisis has not been resolved. It is not yet time to deal with them. However, once the chief breaks through to the Blood Refining realm, all of this will be resolved." Lin Shan gnashed his teeth as he spoke. His originally fiendish face became even more ferocious.
The three of them once again discussed in secret. First, they did not beat the grass and alert the snake. Everything in the tribe would go on as usual. After discussing the countermeasures, Tie Shi and Lin Shan hurriedly left.
… …
After watching the two of them leave, Xiao Chen walked to the corner of the wall and moved a large bronze cauldron to the center of the stone room. He took out the medicinal ingredients from the cauldron and placed them on the stone table one by one.
In order to prevent others from finding out that he was a fake, ever since Xiao Chen came to this world, he had arranged for his servants and maids to take up other positions in the tribe. This also prevented the possibility of his identity being leaked. The only drawback was that he had to complete all the tasks himself.
The prescription that Xiao Chen obtained for bone tempering and tendons changing was made up of seven kinds of herbs, and these herbs could be found in the tribe.
"Purple Blood Grass, Yellow Earth Root, Blood Ginseng …"
After tempering his body for several months, Xiao Chen was already very familiar with the prescription. He picked out the herbs he needed, crushed them, and threw them into the big cauldron. Then, he ignited a raging fire under the cauldron. Not long after, the hot water in the cauldron boiled, rolling up waves of steam.
"After experiencing so many medicinal baths, my body has already accumulated a great amount of medicinal energy. It's time for me, Xiao Chen, to break through to the Blood Refinement realm."
In the half a year since he arrived in this world, Xiao Chen would take a medicinal bath every few days. He had already done it more than ten times. However, every time he was at the critical moment of breaking through the blocked meridians, he would always feel a sense of powerlessness, causing all his efforts to go to waste. Therefore, he had been accumulating his strength for the past few days in hopes of breaking through to the Blood Refining realm.
After piling enough firewood under the cauldron, Xiao Chen took off his leather armor and jumped into the cauldron wearing only his boxers.
"Ah!"
Although he had experienced it many times, the strong medicinal energy from the boiling water still made Xiao Chen cry out involuntarily.
Enduring the excruciating pain, Xiao Chen sat in the cauldron and allowed the water to submerge his shoulders. He calmed his heart and circulated the Heaven Roaring Barbaric Bull Secret Art. A warm current emerged from his body, and all the medicinal power that he had accumulated over the past few days burst out, rampaging uncontrollably within his body.
"Hiss!"
A bone-piercing pain immediately rose from all over his body. Every inch of his bones, skin, and meridians felt like they were being bitten by thousands of ants.
Bean-sized beads of sweat dripped from his forehead and fell into the cauldron. In the next moment, the sweat rose again.
Xiao Chen struggled to control his body. He circulated the technique with all his might to control this warm current.
He let the warm current rush towards the loosened meridians in his body.
In this world, the martial realms were divided into Bone Tempering, Blood Refining, and Fifth Floor. Bone Tempering and Blood Refining were further divided into four levels: Early, Middle, Late, and Complete.
Martial cultivation was too difficult, as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Perhaps everyone could get started. Even a ten-year-old child could have the strength of a hundred pounds. However, it was extremely difficult to achieve anything.
Take the Gu Yuan Tribe for example. There were more than ten thousand people in the tribe, but only eight hundred people became Warriors. To become a Warrior, the first condition was to break through to the Bone Tempering Realm.
The Bone Tempering Realm, as the name suggested, was to temper the bones of the whole body. It was the first level of the martial realms. Generally speaking, when one first entered the Bone Tempering Realm, he would have the strength of a few thousand pounds. Every time he broke through a small realm, he would have the strength of a few thousand pounds.
Once the tempering of the entire body was completed, it would become as hard as iron, and its strength would be around 5,000 kilograms. Of course, there were some extremely talented people or people who practiced high level Cultivation Techniques. They could surpass the strength of 5,000 kilograms when they reached the Great Perfection of the Tempered Bones Realm. However, that was within the scope of elite martial artists.
When the Bone Tempering Realm was completed, the bones of the whole body would be tempered, and he would be able to enter the next realm, the Blood Refining Realm. There were twelve meridians in the human body. After piercing through them, they could form a Great Zhou Tian. The True Qi would flow with the Great Zhou Tian endlessly.
It could really absorb the Essence Qi floating between heaven and earth.
Rumble!
Rumbling sounds came from Xiao Chen's body as he sat in the cauldron. At this time, he was using the medicinal power to impact the loosened meridians. Again and again, the originally loosened meridians gradually cracked.
Boom!
After an unknown number of impacts, the first meridian was finally opened. The turbulent Qi flowed like a flood and filled the meridians.
The green Qi flowed continuously. At the same time, a green light appeared on the surface of Xiao Chen's body, faintly revealing a vast and arrogant Qi.
The Blood Refining Realm!
He had successfully broken through!
"This is the Blood Refining Realm?"
Regardless of his clothes, Xiao Chen clenched his fists excitedly.
He felt a trembling power lurking in his body, and this power made him a little fascinated.
After breaking through to the Blood Refining Realm, Xiao Chen was relieved. Now, he had the ability to deal with the surrounding tribes, which were eyeing him covetously. This gave the Gu Yuan Tribe some ability to protect themselves.
…
The news of Xiao Chen breaking through to the Blood Refining Realm did not spread. After all, he had just broken through and his foundation was not stable. If the news were to spread, it might cause the other tribes to become desperate and attack the Gu Yuan Tribe together.
It had been two days since Xiao Chen broke through to the Blood Refining Realm. Everything in the Gu Yuan Tribe was still the same. Xiao Chen had been consolidating his cultivation and practicing martial arts. In private, he had ordered Tie Shi and Wang Lin to secretly increase the surveillance on those traitors. They were waiting for an opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop.
Clang!
Sparks flew in all directions. Not far from Xiao Chen, a piece of green steel cracked and flew in all directions. Xiao Chen withdrew his spear and stood with his legs crossed.
He was not satisfied with the spear strike just now. Perhaps it had been a long time since he had touched a spear, so he felt a little rusty.
Holding the spear in his right hand, he closed his eyes and the Three Forms of the Reckless Bull appeared in his mind. The countless times he had used the spear in the past became familiar.
The first form, the second form, the third form … the first form, the second form …
Gradually, it was no longer as hard to understand as before. The spear art became smooth and there were no more barriers. The 500-kilogram spear was like a feather in Xiao Chen's hands.
Swoosh!
Dust flew everywhere, but Xiao Chen did not feel anything as he continued to swing the spear.
The Barbaric Bull Roars the Heavens Secret Art came with three spear techniques. The first two did not have a name, only the third was called the Barbaric Bull Strike. This spear technique was born from the Barbaric Bull, so the spear technique seemed to be big and bold, as well as tyrannical.
"Big brother chief, big brother chief, bad news!
Bad news!
Something big happened!
Big sister Mu Qing and many of the sisters in the tribe were captured by Xiong Yu of the Black Mountain Tribe. "
Just as Xiao Chen was immersed in the spear art, a series of urgent shouts came over.
A petite girl with a pretty face rushed in, shouting as she ran. Her face was flushed, and her long hair was messed up by the wind, sticking to her cheeks.
Boom!
Just as the girl's voice fell, the spear in Xiao Chen's hand instantly rushed out of his palm and shot towards a huge rock in the distance. The huge rock exploded, but the spear did not stop. It continued to fly for several feet, and was deeply embedded in the ground. The end of the spear was constantly shaking, as if it was showing the anger of the owner of the spear.
