I can gather experience beads

Cao Rui took out the three martial arts secret books given to him by Ma Xuan.

In fact, Ma Xuan's original intention was to let Cao Rui choose one of the practices.

After all, everyone has limited energy.

It takes a lot of time from getting started to mastering a martial arts secret.

Most warriors spend their entire lives just studying one or two martial arts secrets.

But Cao Rui is different from ordinary people, he has experience beads.

Therefore, Cao Rui directly chose to practice three martial arts secrets at the same time, and condensed the experience beads of three martial arts secrets in one breath.

As long as he allocates time well every day, Cao Rui is confident that he can practice all three martial arts secrets to the peak state.

"I have successfully condensed experience beads by practicing Mingyu Gong. Although the experience value in the experience beads increases slowly, the appearance of the experience beads at least proves that Mingyu Gong is a real method of cultivating immortals, rather than a fantasy."

"If it were someone else, after practicing a seemingly made-up technique for several years with no results, they would have probably given up long ago."

"This can be considered an additional function of the experience bead, to determine the authenticity of a technique."

"But since there are immortal cultivators in this world, why have I never heard of their existence? Is the world of immortal cultivators too hidden behind the mundane world, or is there another reason?"

"I have to pay more attention to the relevant rumors."

While thinking, Cao Rui slowly fell asleep.

......

Early the next morning.

Cao Rui changed into the Giant Whale Gang's incense leader's attire, walked out, and stood in the center of Youquan Street in Blackwater Town.

The gang members who had met at the dinner table yesterday had already gathered around and welcomed Cao Rui into the Giant Whale Gang's base on Youquan Street - the backyard of a restaurant.

Cao Rui has eight gang members under him who help him look after the gang's business on Youquan Street.

As for the peripheral gang members under the eight official gang members, Cao Rui naturally would not pay too much attention to them.

As official gang members, these eight people have all practiced some rudimentary external skills or have just started learning internal skills, and their physical fitness is obviously better than that of ordinary people.

The strongest one among them is called Tang Yueming. Although his name sounds gentle, he is actually a dark-faced man in his thirties, about 1.9 meters tall.

His meridian talent is considered strong among the eight people, but after so many years of practice, his internal strength has only been improved for two years.

The year of internal strength is a statistical value of the strength of internal force.

It doesn't mean that the amount of skill a person gains depends on how many years he practices.

A genius with the best meridian talent may make breakthroughs in half a year and possess the internal skills of ten years.

However, an ordinary person with extremely poor talent may not be able to cultivate one year's worth of internal strength in ten years, or may not even be able to convert qi into internal strength at all.

With such strength, one can become a formal gang member.

Compared with the Luoshui Gang that dominates the Luoshui area, the Giant Whale Gang is indeed completely unrepresentative.

However, for Cao Rui, a small gang has its advantages. With Cao Rui's strength, he can directly serve as the leader of the Giant Whale Gang.

The backyard of Youquan Restaurant.

Cao Rui sat at the head of the long table, with Tang Yueming beside him.

The rest of the strong men under his command were either brandishing swords or lifting stone locks in the yard, training themselves.

"Tang Yueming, can you tell me about the daily situation of Youquan Street?"

Tang Yueming respectfully poured tea for Cao Rui.

Perhaps because of his own poor talent in martial arts, Tang Yueming most respected those martial arts geniuses with extraordinary talent.

Cao Rui is so young, yet he has such profound internal strength. Tang Yueming has long regarded Cao Rui as a true martial arts genius and respects him deeply.

Tang Yueming sorted out his thoughts and said, "Master, Youquan Street is usually in good condition. When the previous Master was here, he mainly dealt with outsiders or bandits who were causing trouble."

"Normally there won't be any problem. After all, Youquan Street has been run by our Giant Whale Gang for more than a decade."

Cao Rui nodded.

Suddenly, he asked curiously, "Does the government of Heishui Town not care about it? Or, is it okay for us to help my wife kill people and set fires?"

"Hey, why would they care about our business? Every month, the dividends we give them from the gang are more than their monthly salary. Why would they care about our business?"

"Besides, our Giant Whale Gang treats this place as our base camp. How could we commit murder and arson for no reason and dig our own graves?"

"The primary mission of our Giant Whale Gang is the same as that of the government, which is to maintain the peace of Blackwater Town!"

Cao Rui nodded in understanding.

Although it may sound a bit exaggerated, it is the truth.

The Xiao Kingdom's imperial court was weak, and its presence among the civilian government offices was not even as strong as that of the local martial arts gangs.

"Then let's keep going as usual."

"You guys go patrol the streets and don't disturb me while I'm practicing." Cao Rui said, and drove Tang Yueming and the others out of the backyard.

He took a long sword from the weapon rack in the yard and began to practice the Misty Rain Sword Technique.

The owner of Youquan Restaurant is half a member of the Giant Whale Gang. One can practice here without worrying about being disturbed, and someone will take care of three meals a day.

On weekdays, Tang Yueming, a veteran, can handle most of the problems on the street.

There were very few things that required Cao Rui to personally step in.

Cao Rui, the incense master, has more of a deterrent effect on ordinary people.

In this way, half a year passed in a flash.

As the season reaches the end of autumn, the chill in the air gradually becomes noticeable.

Cao Rui also served as the incense master in Heishui Town for half a year.

Most of the time on weekdays is spent on cultivation.

I still haven't mastered Mingyu Gong, which means that the experience beads of Mingyu Gong have increased a little, but they are still not enough for me to master Mingyu Gong.

Perhaps Cao Rui's body really does not have any talent for cultivating immortals.

He has no talent for cultivating immortality but still dreams of doing so.

Only Cao Rui, who possesses the experience beads plug-in, would dare to think about it.

Even though he had experience beads, Cao Rui could see that his path to becoming an immortal would be extremely difficult.

Since there has been no progress in his own cultivation, how to increase the speed of the experience value growth of experience beads will be the main problem for Cao Rui on the road to cultivation.

Although he did not master the Mingyu Gong, Cao Rui did make great progress in martial arts.

The first one was the Water-Stopping Technique. One month after joining the gang, gang leader Ma Xuan found the follow-up techniques of the Water-Stopping Technique for Cao Rui.

The Water-Stopping Technique is the most common internal martial arts technique. Given Ma Xuan's status and strength, it is not surprising that he was able to find it.

The completed version of Water-Stopping Technique has a total of seven levels.

After obtaining the Water-Stopping Technique, Cao Rui directly used the experience beads to break through to the fourth level, and his internal strength reached the level of twelve or thirteen years.

At the beginning of this month, Cao Rui used the experience beads again, and used five-tenths of the experience beads to break through the Water-Stopping Technique to the fifth level.

To continue breaking through to the sixth level, you will need a full grid of experience beads.

And because the skills have become more advanced, the speed at which experience beads accumulate experience points has decreased.

It takes a certain amount of time to fill up the experience beads of the Water Stopping Technique in the body.
