Chapter 153: Blocking the Way
It was noon.
Lin Chen calmed his breath, opened his eyes, and ended the early morning concise breathing.
He looks inward.
At this moment, Lin Chen's body still has very little true energy, but compared to before, although the amount is small, the essence is several times purer than before!
Lin Chen came to the martial arts performance venue.
He clenched his fist, and then suddenly thought of an iron stake in front of him and punched him.
I saw that there seemed to be a wisp of invisible ripples in the air with a scorching breath spread out, and Lin Chen's fist had already hit the iron pile!
The originally quiet surroundings suddenly had a "bang" trembling sound. Looking at the iron stake, Lin Chen slowly moved his fist away, but left a deep dent!
Lin Chen clenched his fists, felt the power contained in his palm, and exhaled a deep breath of turbid air.
This is the benefit of constantly condensing true qi!
If you assume that two people are in the same realm, then the person with a purer true energy will always have a little higher chance of winning than others!
But the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, slowness!
When others recover their true energy, they may just condense it in one circle or two circles, but what Lin Chen wants to do is several times, more than ten times, or even dozens of times!
This makes... Even though Lin Chen condenses his true qi every morning and night, except for the two seeds in the True Palace in his body that need to consume every day, as well as the true qi consumed when trying to practice various martial arts tricks when tempering his body, there is actually not much left... Even though he has condensed his true qi for more than a month, the True Palace in Lin Chen's body still only stores the amount of a "small pool".
After several months of hard practice, Lin Chen finally made a breakthrough.
From the blood-activating realm to the true realm of condensed realm.
The blood-activating realm can freely circulate the qi and blood in your body, and can burst out more powerful forces, speeds, and resistance to severe colds and some fevers in a short period of time.
But even ordinary people who do not have the slightest talent can still achieve this state by practicing day after day for several years and decades!
The true realm of condensed refers to the fact that the true qi condensed in the dantian reaches a certain amount, and that you can skillfully control this true qi and use it for yourself. Only when you reach this level can you be considered a true martial arts practitioner!
However, if you want to go out and explore the world, the realm of Condensation is still a bit not enough...

Li Xiaoran entered Yuzhou, and then walked with a team of businesses that went to Rongcheng to do business, traveling all the way between the mountains and rivers of Daliang Kingdom.
"Brother, it's rumored that there is a fight between Jin and Liang dynasties. Everyone is rushing to run out. Why are you not running, but you are rushing to Rongcheng instead?" Li Xiaoran's legs were hanging in the air, and he leaned half on the truck. He turned to look at a little old man beside him and asked.
The old man pressed the cigarette in his hand on the carriage and knocked it until he knocked off the ashes in the cigarette mouth. He took out a pack of dry tobacco from his arms, stuffed the cigarette into his mouth, and sighed, "Your Majesty has been bedridden for a year now. The prince is young and does not understand political affairs. There are treacherous officials in the court. Corrupt officials in the army are at work. What can we, the common people, even if they are worried about the country? If they are really worried about the country and the people, it is better to buy more grain, rice and miscellaneous items from other places at this moment. Even if there is war, the people will not have nowhere to stay..."
"Is Emperor Liang sick?" Li Xiaoran was shocked.
The old man nodded helplessly.
The atmosphere between Jin and Liang was very tense, and at this moment, I don’t know who made the story of Liang Huang ill in bed for a year and it was well known to everyone in the whole country. After that, in just half a month, Jin had already set up troops on the border!
Of course, this cannot rule out that this was a fog that was created by Liang Chao, deliberately used to paralyze the group of people in Zhongzhou.
Li Xiaoran suddenly realized that his news was a bit blocked, and the big event that shocked the world such as the war between Jin and Liang... He didn't know at all!
Shu was mountainous, and the Liang Kingdom lacked resources and the people lived a poor life, which led to many bandits.
Although the local government has cleared out many times, the number of bandits is too large. In addition, the various terrain of Bashu is messy and steep, and there are even collusion between officials and bandits. Therefore, whenever a caravan enters Shu, he always pays a few tolls to ensure safety.
Li Xiaoran could only hear a chaotic sound of horse hooves coming from all directions. After a while, he could see a crowd of people, without masking, riding horses, hanging their knives around his waist, surrounding the caravan.
The bandit in the lead sat on the horse, holding the reins in one hand and patting the dust stained by the other hand because of the dust contaminated by the rushing two, and said condescendingly: "Old man Li, long time no see!"
"It turns out that I am the third leader today! We will borrow a Taoist on the treasure land today..."
The thin old man beside Li Xiaoran saw that the person came, so he immediately got out of the carriage. While taking out a small bag from his arms and handing it over, he smiled and said, "I don't mean anything but respect. Just think it's the old man who invites you brothers to drink tea and moisten your throat..."
The man called "Three Heads" took the bag handed over by Old Man Li, lit a little weight in his palm, then nodded and put it in his arms with satisfaction.
Seeing this, Old Man Li breathed a sigh of relief. He was about to return to the carriage and greet everyone and leave quickly, but suddenly he heard the third leader suddenly shouting: "Slow up!"
Old Man Li's steps suddenly paused, turned his head and asked with a smile: "I wonder if there are any instructions from the Third Chief?"
The third leader walked forward on a horse, looked at the more than ten carriages behind the Chamber of Commerce, and smiled and said, "You have so many carriages that have walked through my road, and you have crushed the road surface. You have to pay the toll, right?"
"Toll? I wasn't it just now..." Old Man Li was about to speak, but suddenly there was a "bang" sound next to him. It turned out that the third boss was wielding a whip at him, and almost hitting Old Man Li.
Everyone present is quiet and no one dares to speak.
Old man Li looked at the three bosses in shock.
"Didn't you just say that is the money for tea for our brothers? Tea is money for tea, and toll is toll!" The third head of the house pointed to the bumpy trench on the ground and smiled: "Look, you have to lose this whole road. If you want to repair it, you have to spend a lot of money!"
"This..." Old Man Li couldn't speak.
