Chapter 1553: Martial Arts City
Although Xiao Lin did not ask for the boxing book, he memorized the important mantras in it with his photographic memory.
The content of the formula made his eyes light up. He didn't expect that the body-building exercises could be practiced in this way. It turned out that in order to condense the qi gate, he needed to open up the blood points first. There are hundreds of acupoints on the human body, among which there are a total of 108 main acupoints on the twelve main meridians and the eight extraordinary meridians.
When these immortal warriors are refining the power of qi and blood, they must first open up blood points on these 108 acupoints, condense qi, and then store more qi and blood. When all the acupoints on any of the twelve main meridians and the eight extraordinary meridians are connected, they can open up the qi gates and open up the sea of blood, just like the Dantian qi sea of immortal cultivators, and can continuously accumulate qi and blood.
These qi and blood forces are usually stored in the blood caves and the sea of blood. Once a battle begins, they can continuously provide qi and blood forces to the immortal warriors.
Moreover, through the power of Qi and blood, many magical powers were created in this Xianwu world. In particular, many powerful blood weapons were also refined. This reminded Xiao Lin of the blood-colored jade pendant he obtained when he was still a small Qi-refining cultivator. It had saved his life several times. Later, as his realm improved, its power gradually decreased, and he had sold it long ago.
Now that I think about it, that blood-colored jade pendant might be a blood weapon?
From these two people, Xiao Lin had roughly learned the location of the Holy Martial Sect, one of the three supreme immortal martial sects, so he and Xiao Hei immediately controlled the escape light and headed towards the depths of the wild forest.
After flying for tens of thousands of miles, Xiao Lin saw several small countries. In the wild mountains and forests thousands of miles away from these small countries, there existed an immortal martial arts sect called the Blood Sword Sect.
After flying more than 100,000 miles, Xiao Lin met another one. Xiao Lin soon figured it out. These immortal martial sects still had to rely on the secular countries to continuously supply them with fresh blood, and they protected these countries from invasion and harassment by martial beasts.
That’s why a group of countries were formed around the Xianwu Sect.
Of course, there are many disputes between these countries, and wars occasionally break out, but as long as the Xianwu Sect intervenes, the war is almost over overnight. This also indirectly shows that the Xianwu Sect is the real controller behind the scenes.
The deeper you go into the wild forest, the fewer groups of beasts there are. The levels of some martial beasts are also getting higher and higher. You can often see mountains of martial beasts fighting each other. With a roar, a wave of air will roll, clearing out a large open space in the forest.
Xiao Lin and Xiao Hei even encountered a giant snake coiled up like a small mountain. The air waves generated by the shaking of its body during breathing raised gusts of wind, which made the surrounding mountains and forests shake constantly. Seeing this martial beast, Xiao Hei showed an eager expression, as if he wanted to go down and compete with it.
Xiao Lin still tried to stop it. After all, the essence and blood of this martial beast would have no effect on Xiao Lin now. Moreover, he did not want to alarm the people from the Xianwu Sect.
When the man and the beast were riding the escape light and passing by the giant beast, it immediately raised its head in alert, revealing two huge snake heads. The snake core it spit out was several feet long, but it glanced at the escape light flying across the sky and did not attack. It just watched vigilantly until the escape light disappeared, then it retracted its head into its body that was hovering like a hill.
Xiao Lin and Xiao Hei naturally didn't care about these things. If some martial beasts really didn't know what was good for them and took the initiative to attack, they wouldn't mind killing them.
Hundreds of thousands of miles later, Xiao Lin and Xiao Hei saw a majestic city between the clouds and sky. This city was built on the mountain peak and had a sense of hierarchy, extending from the bottom of the mountain to the mountainside. As for the top of the mountain, there were also several magnificent small palaces built. It was obvious at first glance that it was not something that ordinary people could own.
Xiao Lin was delighted and told Xiao Hei, then he flew towards the city and came to a dense forest. After they landed, they passed through the dense forest and walked about three or four miles before they saw the huge city gate.
This city is not the only one in the surrounding area. Xiao Lin has searched the surrounding area of hundreds of thousands of miles with his vast spiritual sense. There are hundreds of cities of all sizes scattered around. Within this area of hundreds of thousands of miles, there are also many secular countries scattered around.
The nearest of these mortal countries is tens of thousands of miles away from here, so Xiao Lin judged that this was a city where immortal warriors gathered.
Sure enough, when Xiao Lin walked to the city gate, he immediately saw the people coming in and out. They all had amazing energy and blood flowing on their bodies, and their steps were as steady as a rock. They often took a step and went dozens of feet away, leaving behind afterimages.
Xiao Lin also saw the name of the city - Huiwu City.
Xiao Lin arrived at the city gate and saw that those who entered the city actually took out a red crystal and handed it to the gate guard before entering the city. After weighing it, the guard immediately showed a satisfied expression, waved his hand, and signaled that the man could go.
Xiao Lin had sharp eyes and could tell at a glance that the crystal was actually a low-grade spirit stone. It seemed that in the Xianwu Mountains, spirit stones were still the hard currency here.
Xiao Lin brought Xiao Hei and followed the team entering the city, heading towards the city.
Soon it was Xiao Lin's turn. Without saying a word, Xiao Lin took out a low-grade spirit stone and handed it to the guard. After weighing it, the guard was slightly stunned. The change in his expression startled Xiao Lin who was standing next to him. He wondered if there was something wrong with his spirit stone.
The guard just glanced at Xiao Lin and waved his hand, allowing him to go in.
After Xiao Lin entered the city and his back disappeared, he suddenly waved his hand, and a person next to him immediately came over. After giving a few instructions, the person turned and left.
After Xiao Lin walked into the city, he soon saw the dazzling array of shops on the streets, which were filled with all kinds of top-quality products from the Immortal Martial Realm. Most of them were Blood Essence Pills of various grades. Xiao Lin took a quick look and found that most of the pills on sale were miscellaneous pills, not even the low-grade Blood Essence Pills.
The so-called miscellaneous pills are defective or failed products produced when refining the Essence and Blood Pill. It would be good if the medicinal power can be one-tenth or two-tenths of the real low-grade Essence and Blood Pill. This is what ordinary low-level immortal warriors can afford, and it is also what most low-level immortal warriors often buy.
As for the lower-grade Essence and Blood Pills, most of them are displayed and sold in some more luxurious shops. These shops also have a small amount of mid-grade Essence and Blood Pills. As for the higher-grade Essence and Blood Pills, Xiao Lin has never seen one yet.
In addition, there are some blood weapons, various swords, spears, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, all of which are bright red in color and carry a strong smell of blood.
Xiao Lin just took a quick look and walked towards the city. Since he had found the city where immortal warriors gathered, the next step was naturally to learn about the Holy Martial Sect. Xiao Lin's goal was to join the Holy Martial Sect through some methods and systematically understand the practice methods of immortal warriors.
If this could help elevate the Holy Scale Burning Heaven Technique to a new level, it would be a blessing in disguise.
Xiao Lin walked towards the city and crossed the street in front of the city gate. Soon there was a staircase leading to the second floor of the city. Xiao Lin went up to the second floor and saw that it was the same as the first floor, except that the shops were much more refined and the items sold were also relatively high-end. For example, there were many more shops selling mid-grade Essence and Blood Pills here, and some shops even had a small amount of high-grade Essence and Blood Pills for sale.
Xiao Lin still had no interest in this. The so-called top-grade Essence and Blood Pill no longer had any effect on him. The only thing he wanted now was a top-notch immortal martial arts technique so that he could create a new technique that matched the Holy Scale Burning Heaven Technique.
When Xiao Lin walked to the fourth floor, he saw that all the shops in the city had disappeared. There were only a few huge mansions. On the mansion in the center of the city, three large characters "City Lord's Mansion" were clearly written.
Xiao Lin thought about it for a moment and decided to go straight to the City Lord's Mansion.
Suddenly, a sense of alarm rose in Xiao Lin's heart. He turned around abruptly and saw a man in black armor coming in front of him with astonishing momentum. His fist was reaching towards Xiao Lin's chest, less than a foot away.
But this person's fist stopped one foot away from Xiao Lin's chest, without moving forward at all. This scene made the man in black armor's face turn purple immediately, and his eyes flashed with fear.
Because when his fist was one foot away from the opponent's chest, suddenly there was an invisible wall of air blocking him, but it seemed not to be an air wall. He seemed to feel that his soul was stagnant, as if his soul was imprisoned, and his body lost control because of the imprisonment of his soul.
This kind of situation was something he had never encountered since he cultivated to the seventh-grade immortal warrior, and he couldn't help but start to panic.
"Who are you and why did you attack me?" Xiao Lin said calmly, and with his right hand he gently patted the grinning Xiao Hei to calm him down.
As Xiao Lin spoke, the man felt that the feeling of being imprisoned suddenly disappeared, and his body was able to move again. Only then did he realize that everything that had just happened was done by the person in front of him, and he couldn't help but soften.
"I am Wan Qiancheng, one of the personal guards of the Lord of Huiwu City. Because the spirit stones you paid when entering the city were not spiritual stones containing the power of qi and blood, but pure spiritual stones from the world of immortal cultivation, I thought you were a spy from the immortal way who had infiltrated the city, so I made a move to test you. But...but?" Having said this, Wan Qiancheng didn't know how to continue, because he had not tested whether the other party was a spy from the immortal way, and he had not even found out what kind of martial arts he used. He was speechless for a moment.
He also understood that if the other party was really a spy, his life would definitely not be saved. If he was not a spy, then naturally he would not be disadvantaged. After all, he had revealed his identity, and the other party would always be cautious.
Xiao Lin was slightly stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself: "Could it be that the Immortal Martial Realm is the mortal enemy of the Immortal Cultivation Realm? If that is true, then wouldn't I be walking into a trap?"
However, Xiao Lin changed his mind and felt relieved. His Dantian was exhausted and there was no trace of magical power. He didn't look like an immortal at all. Maybe he could get away with it.
So after a brief thought, Xiao Lin smiled bitterly and said, "I am from Baisha. I took a few blood essence pills by accident and practiced the immortal martial arts passed down in my family for several years. I wanted to become a disciple of the immortal martial arts sect. That's why I came to this wild mountain forest to look for opportunities. It was just a coincidence that I entered Huiwu City. I never thought that I would be regarded as a spy."
"Perhaps I have misunderstood you. The City Lord has instructed me to test you. As long as you are not a spy, I can invite you to the City Lord's Mansion and meet him."
Xiao Lin nodded upon hearing this, and said with a surprised expression, "I came here to ask to see the City Lord and ask for some advice on how to join the Xianwu Sect."
Wan Qiancheng was also muttering in his heart when he heard this. After all, he had not been able to test whether the other party was a spy. However, the other party completely crushed him, and it seemed that he had also gotten rid of the suspicion of being a spy. Thinking of this, he immediately made a gesture of invitation, and then took Xiao Lin towards the City Lord's Mansion.
After entering the mansion, Wan Qiancheng led Xiao Lin across the courtyard and came to a side room. Then he said to the side room, "Your Excellency the City Lord, this senior has been brought here."
"Brother, please come in." A majestic voice came from the side room, and the door opened with a "branch" sound.
Wan Qiancheng bowed, nodded to Xiao Lin, turned around and left, and Xiao Lin entered the room without any hesitation.
With Xiao Lin's sharp sense, he instantly felt the powerful energy and blood in the city lord's body. It was probably more than ten times stronger than the ten thousand guards. In other words, the city lord should be at least a sixth-grade immortal warrior.
A sixth-rank immortal warrior was already a high-ranking immortal warrior. Xiao Lin had never seen his combat power with his own eyes. Now that he had no magic power at all, he didn't know if he could withstand the attack of a sixth-rank immortal warrior relying solely on the power of his spiritual consciousness.
Even Xiao Lin had never understood the relationship between the strength of immortal warriors and immortal cultivators.
Therefore, Xiao Lin did not dare to be arrogant, but cupped his hands and said, "I am Xiao Lin, meeting the Lord City Lord."
Upon hearing this, the city lord slowly turned around, revealing a majestic face of about forty years old, with a three-inch long beard, which was extremely delicate and set off his slender body. He looked a bit like an immortal. If Xiao Lin had not been able to sense the energy and blood emanating from him, he would never have thought that such a gentle and refined man was actually a high-level immortal warrior.
"My surname is Shan, and my given name is Xin. Please take a seat, friend Xiao." The city lord pointed to the chair next to him and said with a smile.
After the two of them sat down, the city lord suddenly said, "Friend Xiao should be a powerful immortal cultivator, right?"
The city lord's words made Xiao Lin's heart tremble, and he immediately became alert. Xiao Hei, who was lying next to him, also raised his head, and a bit of coldness appeared in his eyes.
