A wealthy person with a reading panel

Chapter 113 Easily breaking the world record!
Half an hour later, Zhou Qing withdrew his internal energy into his dantian, opened his eyes, thought for a while, poured out another piece of Huangjing from the bottle and swallowed it, then continued to meditate.

After taking nine tablets in a row, Zhou Qing had used up three quarters of the entire root of Polygonatum before he stopped.

Collect power.

When he opened his eyes, he suddenly felt his chest extremely relaxed, as if the tight restraint on his chest had been removed at once, and he could breathe more comfortably than ever before!
At the same time, he waved his hands, and the strength of his arms was greatly enhanced.

"This is the effect of the initial opening of the hand Taiyin Lung Meridian."

Zhou Qing took a deep breath and felt that his breath was long and his lung capacity seemed to become extremely large, as if he could suck all the air in the room into his body in one breath.

Of course, he knew about the illusion of greatly enhanced respiratory function in a short period of time.

"Although I've only just begun expanding the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian from its original narrow path into a country road, it can be considered as opening up the first of the twelve meridians!"

Although the road is small and can only accommodate a "Qi horse" running, it is still a road.

On the narrow path before, the Qi could only be used to crawl slowly, let alone run, and even walking fast was impossible.

"By opening up the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian, the time it takes to move one circle of internal energy from now on, even without that bonus, will be improved by just under one-twelfth... That's about seven minutes."

"Once all twelve meridians are opened, the internal energy will surge through the meridians, and within five or six minutes, I will be able to move a circle!"

"Finally, when the internal energy accumulates deeply, a small country road can be expanded into a wide road. Then, the Ren and Du meridians are connected, forming a circular movement. After that, the other six extraordinary meridians are connected. The internal energy surges endlessly, and a large circular movement can be completed in an instant. At that time, it is almost equivalent to the peerless masters like Zhang Wuji in the later period of the novel."

Zhou Qing was looking forward to this, looking at the bottle on the coffee table in front of him, with three slices of Polygonatum left in it.

"Save these three slices for making wine. Drink them slowly during your cultivation later."

"Um……"

He suddenly thought of the big beast he drew in Journey to the West. Maybe he could make a big bucket of "Huangjing Gubian Wine" from Journey to the West?
"After returning to Nanhu Province, we must quickly find a place to deal with it."

Zhou Qing was thinking in his mind, he stood up, and wanted to put the remaining three pieces of Polygonatum into his backpack. He was a little excited at this moment, and he stepped hard on the floor. Suddenly, his body was lifted up half a centimeter from the ground. He staggered and almost fell down.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and reached out to hold the edge of the coffee table in front of him to stabilize himself.

Can……

When he stood up and released his hands from the coffee table, he found a deep handprint on the plastic table mat - he had used too much force in a hurry.

wrong? !
"This is due to the physical fitness, especially the strength of the hands and back, which increased too much in a short period of time, leading to discomfort."

He quickly began to move his body, lifting his hands, legs, twisting his waist... After a while, he moved things around the house to get used to the feeling of heavy objects in his hands.

He then tried to twist the bottle cap back and forth with his left and right hands to exercise the dexterity of his hands. After more than ten minutes, he finally put the bottle into his bag.

I checked the time on my phone and it was already three o'clock in the morning.

He glanced at some unread messages but didn't reply for now. Instead, he thought about the changes in his body after opening up the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian. "I haven't measured my physical fitness yet, but...especially my arm strength, it's already reached a point where I need to re-adapt and be cautious. So, how much has my main lung respiratory system been strengthened?"

He thought about it, went upstairs to get the large basin he had used to wash the steamer these days, washed it under the faucet in the bathroom, filled a large basin with water, and brought it to the long table in the living room.

I turned on the stopwatch on my phone, stood in front of the washbasin, calmed my mind, adjusted my breathing, and then took a deep breath with all my strength.

This inhalation lasts for half a minute. Quickly press the stopwatch with your left hand while immersing your entire face in the basin of water.

Start holding your breath!
Seconds and minutes passed by.

Zhou Qing was born in the countryside. When he was very young, he learned to swim in the river with the older boys in the village. He could doggy paddle and "play Mengzi" - that is, holding his breath and swimming underwater.

When he was seventeen or eighteen, he could hold his breath underwater for about a minute. Not amazing, but okay.

But this time, he estimated the time, two minutes passed, and he still didn't feel anything.

Four or five minutes passed and I still didn't feel anything.

After seven or eight minutes, the feeling of dullness gradually began to grow.

He didn't know how much time had passed afterwards. When he was about to give up, he just endured it for a little while. Then he raised his head from the basin and quickly glanced at the phone screen in front of him.

13 minutes and 39 seconds!
"Fuck!"

Zhou Qing was so shocked by the time number on his phone that he couldn't help but spit out sweet words.

He wiped the water off his face, quickly took out his phone and searched for the world record for breath-holding.

"The record for static apnea with pre-breathing pure oxygen is 24 minutes and 03 seconds, held by a Spanish diver. The record for static apnea without oxygen is 11 minutes and 54 seconds, held by a Serbian diver... Oxygen definitely doesn't count. In other words, I just randomly measured it and broke the world record for apnea?"

"Even if we remove the three seconds of reaction time, 13 minutes and 36 seconds is still 1 minute and 42 seconds longer than the world record."

"And I'm just trying it casually, this is not the limit!"

A smile couldn't help but appear on Zhou Qing's lips.

He quickly thought: Comparing myself to ordinary people is pointless. After all, I'm practicing the Nine Yang Manual, and I can even draw precious medicines from the world of Journey to the West. If I'm going to compare myself to anyone, I should be comparing myself to Zhang Wuji, Guo Jing, and Yang Guo from Jin Yong's world.

"Be careful when you're out there, and try not to overdo it."

Soon, he turned his attention to the mutton delicacies on the table next to him.

By this time, Zhou Qing had realized that he had made an empiricist mistake.

This time, when he took the Polygonatum odoratum, he had already cultivated his internal energy, and he directly used the internal energy to absorb the medicinal effects to impact and open up the meridians. This was completely different from the last time when he took the snake gall and relied solely on the body to absorb it.

So even though I'm hungry now, I definitely won't be able to finish all the delicious food on the table in a short time.

He took some to the kitchen to heat it up, and in the end he ate about five or six pounds of cooked meat.

"The rest will be left to the landlord to clean up."

Zhou Qing sorted out his things and moved what needed to be taken away into the car first. He left the things that were not important to see if the landlord wanted them. If not, he would throw them into the trunk after dawn.

In fact, it is just utensils such as a steamer and half a box of charcoal.

It was cleaned up quickly.

He went upstairs again to move the rattan chair down and put it in the yard. He suddenly realized that after such a busy period, he had completely adapted to the changes in his physical fitness.

Looking at the time, it was still early, so he went back to the sofa and meditated for a while.

More than an hour later, Zhou Qing opened his eyes and was very happy.

"Opening up a meridian not only increases the efficiency of cultivation by nearly one-twelfth, but also increases the internal energy when the true energy circulates through this meridian by a lot more than before. This way, the accumulation of internal energy will become faster and faster!"

"This feels so good! But it's a pity that the precious medicine is so hard to draw."

After dawn, he called the landlord directly.

At 8:30 in the morning, Zhou Qing drove out of the small mountain village. Along the way, he was thinking about two things: how to deal with the big beast, and the first book of the fourth round, which novel to choose to read carefully!
