Beginning with the Five Animals Fist to Become a Saint

Chapter 261: Internal energy surges, ten years of skill!
The sun rises.

The Si hour is approaching.

Long before the 9th hour, he broke the ice and entered the water to recover his condition.

At this time, Jiang Ning was already ready.

After a while.

He glanced at the sundial in the yard, and as the sun slowly moved across the sky, the time suddenly came to the hour of Si.

next moment.

Jiang Ning concentrated.

With the Earth-warming Jade on his chest, he also found it much easier to concentrate than before.

It didn't take too much adjustment to calm down and concentrate in just a moment. His mind was empty and there was no distracting thoughts in his mind.

Immediately.

He raised his five hearts to the sky, then tilted his head slightly and slowly took a breath of the warm sun above his head.

In an instant, a wisp of the Five Elements' essence of the sun was inhaled into his nostrils from the void.

The essence of the sun sank into his lungs from his nasal cavity. Although it was extremely hot, he did not feel any burning pain.

Ever since he possessed the special ability of the Water and Fire Fairy Robe last time, the essence of the sun has entered his internal organs and can no longer harm them in the slightest.

It only has the tempering effect.

Then, he felt the essence of the sun spreading out and merging into his internal organs.

Suddenly, I felt as if I was in an oven. There was no longer any coldness at all, and warmth flowed throughout my body.

As the five internal organs were tempered by this ray of the sun's essence, strands of internal energy condensed from the five internal organs and flowed into the dantian in the abdomen.

[Inner elixir’s health-preserving experience value +1]

As the prompt sounded, a ray of the sun's essence was consumed.

Jiang Ning opened his eyes again, a look of joy on his face.

After the five internal organs are nourished by the spiritual essence of the five elements and their foundation becomes strong.

This time of refining the essence of the sun is completely different from the last time.

The last time I refined the essence of the sun, each breath only increased my internal energy by a tiny bit.

This time, after refining the first strand of Great Sun Qi, he increased his internal energy by five strands, and his efficiency was five times higher.

"The efficiency of condensing internal energy has increased fivefold!" Jiang Ning took a breath of cold air in his heart.

Previously, because the five internal organs were nourished by the five elements' spiritual essence, they gradually became stronger. This enhancement was the enhancement of the innate foundation.

During these days, the internal energy that was condensed in his body every day gradually evolved from one strand per day to two strands per day to three strands per day.

This change of self-increasing internal energy is brought about by the self-strengthening of the internal organs.

Just like the first daily ray, it is because of his characteristic.

[The five internal organs store essence]: Essence is stored in the five internal organs, and the internal organs strengthen themselves.

The self-strengthening of the internal organs means the self-strengthening of all the internal organs.

In the state of inner strength, the internal organs are strengthened.

The five internal organs are primary, and the six bowels are secondary.

This characteristic of his would slightly strengthen his internal organs every day.

And because of this continuous slight enhancement, his internal organs would condense a wisp of internal energy every day.

One wisp every day, although not much, is just equivalent to a wisp of the sun's essence he exhaled before.

But the key is perseverance, no matter what the weather, and no care about any external conditions.

Over the years, the growth of internal energy alone is a huge improvement.

But now, it is even more different.

The five internal organs are nourished by the spiritual essence of the five elements, which strengthens his innate foundation. At the same time, the strengthening of the five internal organs also strengthens the six internal organs.

After this strengthening.

The growth rate of his internal energy these days has also increased from one strand per day at the beginning to about three strands per day now.

He originally thought that this was the limit.

This is the effect brought about by the five elements' spiritual essence nourishing the five internal organs.

But after he inhaled a ray of the sun's essence today, he discovered that he had underestimated the effect of the Five Elements' spiritual essence in nourishing the five internal organs.

Just by exhaling a wisp of the sun's essence, the amount of internal energy condensed has increased from one wisp each time to five wisp each time, a five-fold increase.

next moment.

He calmed his mind and concentrated his consciousness, his mind regained its clarity and all distracting thoughts disappeared.

Then continue breathing in and out towards the sun above your head.

As he breathed in and out, wisps of the sun's essence merged into his internal organs.

The internal organs are constantly being tempered.

【.】

With the blessing of the characteristics of the Water and Fire Fairy Robe, he was no longer afraid of the burning of the sun's essence, which greatly improved his efficiency in breathing in the sun's essence.

There is no need to consider the burden on the internal organs.

Before, when he did not possess the properties of the Water and Fire Fairy Robe, even though half of his body was in the water and was constantly nourished by the water spirit, it still took him some time to recover.

Now he doesn't have to consider any load, so his efficiency has been greatly improved compared to his previous method of being in the water.

Not to mention the difference with ordinary people, there is a world of difference!!
However, as he continued to breathe in and out the essence of the sun, he also discovered another change.

After each strand of the Sun's Essence was refined by him, the amount of internal energy it brought gradually decreased from five strands to four, then three, until...
The sun rises overhead.

The Si hour has passed and noon is approaching.

Even in the cold winter, as noon approaches, the scorching sun above our heads becomes a little too hot.

"After I refined this ray of the sun's essence, I still condensed it into two wisps of internal breath!" Jiang Ning slowly exhaled the turbid air in his stomach, opened his eyes, and murmured.

At the same time, as his mind turned, a prompt appeared in front of him again.

[This time, by inhaling and exhaling the Sun's essence, the experience points of the Inner Alchemy Health-preserving Exercise increased by a total of 95 points. ]

Not much, but nothing less.

After completing a breathing exercise for two hours, he gained nearly a hundred experience points.

At the same time, he had already discovered that the existence of the panel seemed to change slightly with his thoughts.

This is undoubtedly a good thing.

If it can be influenced by his will, it may mean that this panel is truly controlled by him.

Everything in the world has its origins, and Jiang Ning guessed that this panel is the same!

Then he looked at the column of inner alchemy health-preserving exercises on the panel.

[Skills]: Inner Dan Health Preservation Exercise (Minor Achievement 1086/5000)
"At this rate, it will take about 41 to 42 days."

“The efficiency is really high nowadays!”

"Unfortunately, the weather is unpredictable. There are fewer days with bright sunshine, and more days with overcast skies and heavy snow."

Jiang Ning shook his head and sighed.

He kept his five hearts facing the sky and closed his eyes.

Five hearts facing heaven is a Taoist meditation posture.

Neidan health-preserving exercises are also an orthodox Taoist method of internal strengthening. They require immortal roots, that is, spiritual wisdom, and also require extremely high levels of enlightenment.

When looking inward at his body, his gaze fell on the Dantian area within his body.

Suddenly, you can see the inner breath like smoke, fog and clouds. Sometimes it looks like a dragon, shuttling through the clouds.

Sometimes it looks like a wave, surging endlessly.

If one knows a lot about the fifth level of inner strength, and sees the inner energy in Dantian, he will know that such inner energy has reached a level as majestic as mountains and rivers.

This is the inner breath like a river.

In this way, the internal breath has crossed the second level. The internal breath is like a river, and it has reached the state where the internal breath is like a river.

What he didn't know was that this kind of powerful internal energy, when placed in the fifth level of inner strength, is equivalent to ten years of cultivation.

For a normal strong man in the fifth level of inner strength, it usually takes five to ten years of accumulation to reach the level where the inner breath is as strong as a river.

As for the internal breath like the sea in the future, because of the accumulation of the total amount in the Dantian, the strange phenomenon will change again, and the skill will be more powerful.

"Compared to before, the total amount of internal energy has indeed increased." Jiang Ning whispered in his mind, and was also a little surprised.

Compared to the last time he peeked at the changes in his dantian, the changes revealed this time were obviously different.

It is like a majestic and rushing mountain river, full of momentum.

"Today's breathing of the Sun's essence has increased my internal energy by 291 strands. Could it be because the total amount of internal energy has increased?"

Jiang Ning had some guesses in his mind. "After the New Year's holiday is over, I have to go to work to upgrade my official position, and at the same time increase my authority, in exchange for information of the fifth rank and above."

He made a decision immediately in his mind.

Before this, he was not in a hurry, thinking that he might need contribution points in exchange for other needs.

Now he also realized that he really needed to improve his official position.

It was not only because of the arrival of He Jinsheng from the Qinghe Earl's Mansion, but also because he needed higher authority.

Otherwise, after he forges the jade bones and enters the fifth-grade inner strength realm, he will be completely in the dark.

"Perhaps, we can look for Lin Qingyi?"

The green figure appeared in his mind and he immediately shook his head.

"Forget it, I won't go looking for her! It's better to have less contact with a married woman!"

He had some concerns in his mind.

Several more days passed.

These days, He Jinsheng has not appeared since the last time he came to the house.

Jiang Ning simply kept it in mind.

With his current strength, he is not afraid of He Jinsheng at all.

As for the Qinghe Earl's Mansion, since only He Jinsheng was allowed to come here, it means that no one will come in the short term.

What's more, the mountains are blocked by heavy snow and the roads outside the city are covered with thick snow.

In this harsh environment, it is difficult for only the strong to travel long distances.

Even a strong person would not go out in such bad weather unless necessary.

Normally, it would take about five days to travel from Dongling City to Luoshui County, even if riding a horse.

In the current environment, it will take at least half a month.

This means that they have to travel for more than half a month in an environment of ice and snow where it is difficult to make a fire.

So Jiang Ning was not panicked at all.

The Qinghe Earl's Mansion had long been in decline, so it would not be difficult for them to invite a fifth-rank official who could be compared to Hong Minghu.

However, to make them travel in the ice and snow for more than half a month and suffer the baptism of wind and frost, this requires an extraordinary amount of face.

Any fifth-rank person is an important figure in Dongling City.

As for the peak of the fifth rank, he is a figure who is on par with Lu Qingshan, the master of the Medicine King Valley.

That's absolutely impossible!

The gap between the peak of the fifth rank and the level below the peak is extremely huge; the two are not on the same level at all.

The internal energy is condensed into a powerful force, which can kill thousands of soldiers with one breath.

Such combat power is extremely terrifying.

It also naturally means that his status and position must be very high. If you want to invite such a person, you have to use the favor of an important person.

In the courtyard.

After a round of boxing, the bone strengthening also completed a big cycle.

Under the warm sun overhead, Jiang Ning's entire body was soaked with sweat, and hot air continued to come out of his head.

Even for him now, every time he completes a cycle of bone strengthening, it is a considerable consumption.

call--

He let out a breath of foul air.

Then he opened the panel and took a look.

[Name]: Jiangning
[Divinity]: 0
[Authority]: Flesh and blood regeneration (82.73% missing)

[Source Energy]: 221.88

Inner Dan Health Preservation Exercise (Minor Achievement 1277/5000)
The biggest change these days is the Five Animals Fist.

He had already earned the three thousand experience points, and now all he lacked were energy points.

To break the limit three times, a full five hundred source energy points are needed, but he only has more than two hundred and twenty source energy points now, so the gap is not small.

In addition to this, there is the internal alchemy health-preserving exercise.

There were two sunny days in total these days.

He also took advantage of the sunny day to breathe in the sun's essence, which increased his inner alchemy health-preserving skills by nearly 200 experience points, bringing him one step closer to mastering this skill.

More importantly, the internal energy also surged by hundreds of strands.

Hundreds of strands of internal energy flowed into the Dantian in the body, making the internal energy become more powerful, and the total amount increased slightly by about six or seven percent.

Such an increase is already very significant.

You know, this only took two days.

With this level of efficiency now, as long as everything goes smoothly and every day is sunny, he can double the total amount of internal energy in his body in just one month.

If masters who have entered the fifth level of inner strength knew about this efficiency, they would be extremely shocked.

After closing the panel.

"I have broken the limit of the Five Animals Fist three times. Now all I am missing is source energy points. I have to find a way to get the source energy points I am missing now!"

Jiang Ning muttered to himself.

Then he closed his eyes again and looked inward.

The mind sinks into the body.

In an instant, he saw 206 bones appearing in his sight.

These bones have undergone tremendous changes again compared to a few days ago, and are completely opposite to what they were at the beginning.

The whole body has an obsidian-like luster, and the bones are already nine-five layers of black, just like obsidian.

This kind of black is not dull at all, but full of bright luster.

In this black color, there are countless silver threads.

He just needs to temper his bones and turn these silver-like threads into black completely, so that there will be no impurities in the 206 bones in his body. This means that he has officially entered the second level of bone tempering in the sixth level of martial arts, the Mysterious Bone Level.

"Another three to five days, and it will be almost done!"

Jiang Ning slowly opened his eyes.

He stood there and thought for a moment.

Then she went back to the house and picked up the clothes that had just been washed and dried by her sister-in-law Liu Wanwan in the past two days.

After being exposed to the sun for a whole day, these clothes are also filled with the smell of the sun.

Jiang Ning put the clothes that Liu Wanwan had folded neatly into the Xumi Ring, then turned and walked out of the room.

Come above the ice.

Two consecutive days of warm sunshine melted some of the snow on the road, but there was still a thick layer of ice on the lake.

boom--

Jiang Ning stomped the ground with his right foot, and the ice layer that was more than 20 centimeters thick suddenly collapsed.

With himself as the center, the outer side of the broken ice rose high into the sky.

Within a few feet, there are cracks of varying sizes.

As the ice broke, Jiang Ning fell into the cold lake water.

However, the lake water, which seemed icy cold in the eyes of others, made Jiang Ning close his eyes and show a look of enjoyment.

He could feel that every part of his body was being nourished by the lake water.

The physical energy consumed in bone strengthening just now is now recovering rapidly.

After a while.

All the energy consumed in previous practice was completely restored with the nourishment of the lake water, reaching its peak state.

Jiang Ning then quickly washed his body.

Then the mind moved slightly.

The lake water surrounding him changed instantly, and an underwater vacuum appeared.

He was in the vacuum of the water and quickly changed his clothes.

Then, the lake water above his head naturally parted, and the lake water under his feet continued to rise. He also stepped on the water, rising up as if he was sitting on a suspended ladder.

When he stepped on the ice again, there was not a drop of lake water on his clothes.

"Go to Wanhua Building, sell the gold box, and buy some natural treasures to help me break through 500 energy points."

"Today I will complete the Three-foot Break Limit of the Five Animals Fist and see what kind of effects and characteristics will emerge after breaking the limit three times!"

"Then I will continue to strengthen my bones and practice boxing at the same time. In a few days, I will be able to reach the second level of bone strengthening and achieve Xuan bone. My strength will definitely reach a higher level."

Jiang Ning thought to himself, his heart full of anticipation, that days of hard work would soon yield great rewards.

Then he headed towards Wanhua Tower.
