Wu Gengji, I will become Zi Yu's apprentice at the beginning! ! !

Deep in the boundless desert, there stands a mysterious and strange city. Even in the daytime, the sky here is particularly dark; at night, it is even more silent and terrifying. This city is the city of the dead, a cursed city.

The master of this place is none other than the Dark God Shi Xing. There are no ordinary people living in the city, instead there are evil spirits transformed by the Dark Moon, who enjoy eating people and devouring souls.

In the City of the Dead, there is a prison. In the strongest cell of the prison, there is a man - the great swordsman Zi Yu. At first, he was injured by the sky and was dying, but Shi Xing's men used a miraculous medical skill to save him. However, although he was saved, his Qi training skills were abolished, and his hands and feet were still tightly bound by heavy iron chains. The great swordsman is now like a waste.

"Dong~" a dull sound was heard, and the door of the cell was slowly pushed open. A man in dark blue-purple armor walked in, his face was hideous and strange, this man was the Ten Punishments God. He was seen holding a jar of wine and striding into the cell.

He walked up to the great swordsman and sat down. He raised the wine jar in his hand and said to the great swordsman: "Great swordsman, you are the strongest opponent I have ever met. I hope you can cheer up and have another hearty battle with me!"

Zi Yu closed his eyes tightly, his messy hair covering his eyes. He remained silent, as if he had lost all vitality and hope. After a while, he finally opened his eyes slowly, his eyes full of despair and helplessness. He murmured to himself: "I am already a useless person. It is impossible for me to fight you anymore. Just give up."

Upon hearing this, Shi Xing couldn't help but burst into laughter, with a hint of teasing and mockery in his laughter. He raised his glass, took a big sip of wine, and then said triumphantly: "Hahaha, it doesn't matter, Great Swordsman, I am very patient with you. What does it matter if I wait for another five or ten years? As long as I can see you get back on your feet, everything will be worth it!" After saying that, he raised his head and laughed again, and his laughter echoed throughout the cell.

Then, Shi Xing said, "This wine is good, you should have a sip too." He picked up the jar of wine, stood up and walked to Zi Yu, showing a ferocious smile, trying to pry open Zi Yu's mouth to drink it. However, Zi Yu said coldly, "I can open my mouth myself."

Hearing this, Shi Xing was stunned at first, then laughed out loud. Zi Yu slowly opened his mouth, and Shi Xing saw this, and without hesitation, he poured the wine into Zi Yu's mouth. The wine flowed down Zi Yu's throat and soaked his clothes, but he had no reaction, as if all this had nothing to do with him.

After drinking the wine, Shi Xing smashed the empty wine jar to the ground, making a crisp sound. He laughed again and said, "Look, you can still drink. Cheer up, great swordsman. One day, I will make you my opponent again." After that, he laughed and walked out of the cell, leaving Zi Yu alone in the darkness, silently enduring endless pain.

Zi Yu closed his eyes, took a deep breath, opened his eyes again, and murmured: "Wang Hun, my disciple, what are you going to do next? You should fight for the weak like me. Hey, I believe you will come to save me, even if it is not necessary."

On the other side, Wu Geng suddenly froze, as if he had thought of something. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Qi Refining Technique, what is that?"

Wang Hun smiled slightly and replied softly, "More than ten days ago, in front of Chaoge City, in addition to the flames of your father's Phoenix, there was also my master, the Great Swordsman Zi Yu, who transformed a sword out of thin air. You should have witnessed all of this, right?"

Wu Geng nodded in sudden enlightenment and said, "I understand. This is the magical power that Uncle Zi Yu used to beat up the God of the God Clan that day! This is something different from the power of the God Clan, but it can compete with the power of the God Clan."

Wang Hun was very satisfied after hearing Wu Geng's answer. He then explained, "Yes, that's right. However, to learn Qi Refining Technique, you usually need something called 'mind', but from what I've observed, you don't have this so-called mind."

After hearing this, Wu Geng scratched his head speechlessly and asked in confusion: "I don't have that kind of intention, so why did you teach me the art of Qi Refining?"

Wang Hun still kept smiling and comforted Wu Geng: "Don't be discouraged. Heart and eyes are not the only criteria. They cannot determine everything about you. The only person who can truly determine your future is you."

After hearing this, Wu Geng looked at Wang Hun with a firm gaze and asked, "So, can I also learn Qi Refining?"

Wang Hun nodded and answered affirmatively: "Of course."

Wu Geng smiled first, then said: "But, what is the specific principle of Qi Refining Technique?"

Wang Hun patiently explained: "The so-called Qi Refining Technique is actually a magical skill that can control the flowing Qi in the world and condense it into the substance we want. Whether it is weapons, organs or various items, they can all be achieved through Qi Refining Technique. Moreover, if the strength is strong enough, it can also integrate elemental power, such as fire and metal."

Wu Geng couldn't help but widen his eyes after hearing this, and said in surprise: "It's so amazing!"

Wang Hun continued, "Not only that, Qi Refining Technique also has an important function, which is to transform and strengthen the human body, so that it has physical qualities comparable to those of the gods. It can even use Qi Refining elements to form an indestructible body, making oneself even more powerful."

Wu Geng was overjoyed after hearing this and said excitedly: "Wang Hun, please teach me!"

However, Wang Hun smiled lightly and said calmly: "It's not impossible to teach you, but the prerequisite is that you have to take me as your master."

Wu Geng was stunned when he heard this, and asked in confusion: "You are Uncle Zi Yu's apprentice. If I take you as my master, wouldn't I become his apprentice? In this way, the seniority will be completely messed up!"

Wang Hun replied seriously, "It doesn't matter. Your skills need me to teach you, so you must accept me as your master."

Wu Geng had no choice but to think carefully, kneel down solemnly, and said: "Master, I want to take revenge on the God Clan, please teach me the Qi Refining Technique!"

Wang Hun smiled slightly, helped him up, and said, "Get up, I will teach you the art of Qi training now."

Wang Hun continued: Try to feel the flow of Qi, and don't let having no mind become an obstacle. If you have no mind, then let your beliefs and observation become your mind, and you can still become a user of Qi Refining.
