Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged at the bottom of the water, calm and calm, his expression unchanged, mobilizing the true energy in his body to circulate in the three meridians.
Every time the Qi circulates, the pain will weaken a little.
With his current level of martial arts cultivation, he cannot hold his breath and practice in the water all the time. Every five minutes, he goes to the surface of the water to change his breath.
An hour passed, the pain gradually disappeared, and a stream of cold air entered the body to repair the damaged body. A feeling of comfort permeated the whole body, almost making people moan.
"Wow!"
Zhang Ruochen stood up from the water, wiped the water drops on his body with a bath towel, stood in front of a bronze mirror, looked at his body, and nodded.
After practicing for more than ten days, coupled with the tempering in medicinal baths, my body is obviously stronger, unlike before, which was a bit sickly thin.
Of course, of the more than ten days in the space-time crystal, only four days have passed in reality.
Four days ago, he was just a weakling. He was kicked out of Yushu Palace by the Eighth Prince and was ruthlessly laughed at and bullied by everyone. Who knew that four days later, he would already have a martial arts cultivation level in the middle stage of Huangji Realm.
This is simply a miracle!
"It's not enough! The middle stage of Huang Ji Realm is just the beginning!" Zhang Ruochen clenched his fists tightly and his eyes were very sharp.
After putting on his clothes, he took a blood pill, entered the inner space of the space-time crystal, and continued to practice.
Being able to reach the middle stage of Huangji Realm within four days was not only because of his martial arts experience in his previous life, but also because of the help of the space-time crystal.
With the space-time crystal, he can practice three times longer than other warriors. This is his unique advantage!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Man Xiang Chi Di!"
Zhang Ruochen's legs were bent, he was stepping forward, and his arms were constantly pumping out. Each palm strike mobilized the strength of every muscle and bone in his body.
Just after taking a medicinal bath, you must use boxing to integrate all the medicinal power into your body and transform it into your own power.
In the following days, Zhang Ruochen almost always practiced in the inner space of the space-time crystal, and only came out of the inner space every three days.
Concubine Lin knew that Zhang Ruochen had just opened the Mark of Divine Martial Arts and would definitely need to practice in seclusion, open up a pool of Qi, cleanse his marrow and pulse his veins, so she didn't ask any more questions and just told Yun'er to take good care of Zhang Ruochen's daily life.
She would still sell her jewelry and give Zhang Ruochen the silver coins to buy blood pills.
Often at this time, Zhang Ruochen would ask Yun'er to bring the silver coins to buy those accessories back quietly at a high price.
This was an indescribable emotion, that kind of selfless care, which moved Zhang Ruochen very much.
Gradually, Zhang Ruochen accepted the identity of this body and regarded Concubine Lin as his real mother.
"His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince, should we tell Concubine Lin the truth? If she knows that you are now a true warrior, she will definitely be very happy." Yun'er said.
"No need for now. I want to give her a surprise during the year-end assessment. Besides, my current cultivation level is not strong enough, I need to become stronger." Zhang Ruochen said.
Now, Yun'er knows many secrets of Zhang Ruochen.
Except for the secrets of the previous life and the space-time crystal, Zhang Ruochen told her almost everything else.
In Yun'er's view, His Highness the Ninth Prince is simply an amazing martial arts prodigy. In a short period of time, he has reached the middle stage of Huangji Realm. The other princes are far behind compared to His Highness the Ninth Prince.
The true qi in the qi pool has returned to its perfect state again.
Zhang Ruochen immediately drank the marrow cleansing liquid from the third small jade bottle and began to open the sixth meridian.
This meridian flows through the spleen, lungs, kidneys, liver, and heart, and belongs to the five internal organs of the human body. When the true qi flows through the five internal organs, it can strengthen the five internal organs. At the same time, the five internal organs are also the most fragile, and Zhang Ruochen must control them carefully.
It took six full hours, and the zhenqi in the body was almost completely exhausted, but the meridians still had not opened up the whole body, and there was still a small gap.
If the true energy is interrupted, all efforts will be wasted, and even the five internal organs will be traumatized.
If you want to open up this meridian in the future, it will be ten times more difficult than now.
Zhang Ruochen made a bold decision and took a Qi Gathering Pill into his mouth very quickly.
"boom!"
The energy of the Qi Gathering Pill suddenly exploded in the body.
Zhang Ruochen immediately focused on two tasks, using the five meridians that had been opened up to absorb Dan Qi, continuously converting it into True Qi, and carried it to the Qi pool.
On the other end, he carefully controlled his true energy and continued to attack the sixth meridian.
This is a huge test for a person's mental strength. Fortunately, Zhang Ruochen was a strong man in the Dzogchen Realm in his previous life. He has strong mental strength. He succeeded even though he was doing two things at once!
The sixth meridian was successfully opened!
The Qi pool between the eyebrows emits a circle of white brilliance, and its capacity expands tenfold again.
In the middle stage of Huangji Realm, the Qi pool is only the size of a water tank.
Now, Zhang Ruochen's Qi pool has become as big as ten water tanks. It is very open and can accommodate a large amount of Qi.
"I finally broke through to the late stage of Huangji Realm!"
Zhang Ruochen held a spiritual crystal in his hand, the divine mark between his eyebrows emerged, and began to continuously absorb the spiritual energy in the spiritual crystal.
All six meridians are running, and the speed of Shenwu Seal absorbing spiritual energy is doubled.
After stabilizing his realm, Zhang Ruochen stopped practicing.
He opened his eyes, and his pupils became extremely bright, just like two bright cold stars.
Three new meridians were opened, and a large amount of impurities were discharged from the pores in the body, exuding a fishy odor.
Zhang Ruochen walked out of the inner space of the space-time crystal. After taking a bath in the wooden barrel that had been prepared, he put on his clothes, opened the door and walked out.
At this moment, it is already late at night.
Pieces of goose-feather-like snowflakes were floating in the air, falling one after another, and the entire courtyard was covered with a layer of silver frost.
Yun'er sat on the steps outside Zhang Ruochen's room, curling up and rubbing her hands from time to time, breathing hot air into her palms.
"Squeak!"
Hearing the door opening behind him, Yun'er immediately stood up, looked at Zhang Ruochen who came out of it, and said happily: "Your Highness, Ninth Prince, have you succeeded?"
