Chapter 1416 Born to Death, Grand Master: Zhou Chen!
"Da da, da da..."
In the early morning, the gentle sound of horse hooves could be heard on the official road.
Zhou Chen rode a horse and walked leisurely on the official road. The sky was just getting dark at this time, and no one could be seen on the official road.
Last night, he and the old gentleman talked freely in the pavilion. They talked for most of the night, ranging from the books of sages to the current Qingguo system, and even poems and songs.
The old gentleman was indeed a truly knowledgeable man, but when he was half drunk, he lost his temper and said a lot of things he shouldn't have said. In the end, he fell into a drowsy sleep. Even when he fell asleep, it was not very peaceful.
However, the old man got up early before dawn today, saying that it was most convenient to travel in the early morning, so Zhou Chen said goodbye to him in the pavilion and wished him a gold medal.
Passing by the teahouse next to the official road, he was about to stop and buy something to eat, but he didn't react until he dug it out.
When I said goodbye to the old man today, I secretly stuffed the only two coins he had with him into the old man's box. Now he has no silver or copper coins on him, only silver notes.
I can't find any money in this small teahouse.
After touching his belly, he could still bear it, so he patted the horse's back gently and moved forward again. There was a county town a few miles ahead, and the horse was about to be fed.
We walked for several miles, taking our time and taking our time. It took us half an hour to arrive at the county seat.
The county town is not big, so Zhou Chen found a nearby inn. He didn't care about the environment and asked the waiter to take his horse over to feed him, while he went into the inn and called for food.
He was not in a hurry. By the time he had finished eating and the horses had been fed, it was already noon. The sun was high in the sky and people were a little lazy, so they did not continue on the road and rested for two more hours at the inn to replenish supplies.
After that, we started on the road again in the evening.
While walking and stopping along the way, I saw all kinds of people on the road, including wealthy families with wine and meat, and refugees who were forced to leave home and beg for food...
Zhou Chen, who had lived for so many years, was no longer the kind of compassionate person, but even so, he still felt sad when he saw the unbearable tragedy.
It doesn't matter if he didn't see it, but if he did, he still tried his best to help a little bit.
Along the way, hundreds of taels of silver were easily spent.
A few days later, Zhou Chen finally arrived at Dongshan Road. He did not go to Dadongshan immediately.
Now that I have come to Dadongshan, I naturally have to go to Danzhou Fan Mansion to take a look. Fan Xian has not gone to Kyoto at this time, and is still in Fan Mansion waiting for the red-armored knight to pick him up and take him to Kyoto.
Although he and Fan Xian are not the same type of 'travelers', what they have in common is that they are both modern people with modern social thoughts and can barely be regarded as fellow countrymen, so he still has some expectations for Fan Xian.
.
As the ancestral home of Uncle Sinan, Fan Mansion is quite famous in the local area. Zhou Chen knew the approximate location of Fan Mansion just by asking two people.
The gate of Fan Mansion faced the street. Zhou Chen led the horse and walked into the street. Then he saw Fan Mansion at the end of the road and the figure sitting at the gate of Fan Mansion.
"Ta-ta, tap-ta, tap-ta."
Soon, Zhou Chen approached Fan's mansion, but he did not stop and stared at Fan Xian sitting on the steps for a while.
Fan Xian was sitting on the steps, holding his chin with his hand and looking forward expectantly. Then, he saw Zhou Chen walking in his direction.
Fan Xian, whose eyes were dull, suddenly sat up and looked at Zhou Chen curiously, because he found that the handsome guy holding the horse had been staring at him, as if he knew him, but he was very sure that he did not.
This person.
Seeing the other party getting closer and closer, Fan Xian stood up and was about to ask, but unexpectedly the other party suddenly turned around and passed in front of him, leaving only his back.
Fan Xian was stunned when the words came to his lips. It took him a long while to react.
“What’s so weird??”
Zhou Chen showed a narrow smile and left without looking back.
He just came to Danzhou specifically to visit, and had no intention of getting to know Fan Xian. Since he had already met him, there was no need to stay any longer.
As for getting to know Fan Xian, we should wait until after Kyoto.
When he approached Fan's Mansion, he didn't see Wu Zhu, but he knew that Wu Zhu must be nearby to protect Fan Xian. As a biochemical robot, his aura was different from that of normal humans. If he wanted to hide, he would be discovered.
, is not an easy task.
It is now the second year of Qingli. Fan Xian looks to be around sixteen or seventeen years old. In more than a year, he will go to Kyoto, so he must break through to the Grand Master as soon as possible.
After leaving Danzhou, Zhou Chen went straight to Dadong Mountain.
Dadong Mountain is not an uninhabited place. After Zhou Chen arrived at his destination, he first found a farmer nearby and fostered his horse at his home.
He carefully selected this horse to accompany him all the way from Kyoto, and there were no accidents on the way. He was reluctant to throw it away, but he was going to Dadong Mountain to practice and couldn't take it with him, so he stayed with a farmer.
, is the best choice.
After settling the horse, Zhou Chen walked towards Dadong Mountain. Dadong Mountain was originally a huge mountain, but an unknown nuclear explosion occurred tens of thousands of years ago, causing half of the mountain to be destroyed, forming the current Dadong Mountain.
Only half of the lonely peak is left, which is quite shocking when viewed from a distance.
There is a Qing Temple on Dadong Mountain, so there are people on the mountain. Zhou Chen came here just to practice and make breakthroughs, and did not want to come into contact with people, so he relied on his superb martial arts and spent a few days to find a remote place on the mountain that was not easily accessible.
Live temporarily in the place found by people.
After settling down, Zhou Chen began to practice. Soon he clearly felt that the energy here was stronger than that in Kyoto. According to this energy level, it was definitely good for his practice.
A few days passed, and he clearly felt that his Qi, which he had not improved for a long time, had actually improved slightly, which made him very happy.
So he patiently practiced in retreat at Dadong Mountain.
Time flies like a shuttle, time flies like an arrow, and time flies by unconsciously.
Half a year has passed since Zhou Chen entered Dadong Mountain to practice cultivation, and winter turned to spring.
Zhou Chen, who was sitting cross-legged on the trunk of a huge tree, slowly opened his eyes and let out a long breath.
Half a year later, he fell into a bottleneck again, and his energy was no longer improving, as if a bottle had been filled with water and no more could be put in.
It has reached the limit of the ninth level. If you want to go further, you can only break through the Grand Master, but it is not so easy to break through the Grand Master.
"It's time. The time is right, the place is right and the people are right. If you occupy the right place, the time is unpredictable. If the time is right, it depends on your own judgment and luck."
Zhou Chen's eyes were full of determination. There was no point in procrastinating like this anymore. Now that he was in the best condition in all aspects, it was the best time to make a breakthrough.
In the next few days, Zhou Chen did not practice anymore, but relaxed for a few days to adjust his condition.
Seven days later, inside the cave, Zhou Chen sealed the cave entrance. He didn't know what would happen during the breakthrough, so he had to ensure a quiet and safe environment first.
"let's start!"
Zhou Chen sat cross-legged and started to attack the Grand Master realm according to the method he had calculated.
The four great masters in Qingyu years had different breakthrough methods. Ku He cultivated the mind method of the Heavenly Way, which emphasized the unity of heaven and man. This breakthrough method was more mysterious and difficult to master, so it was not Zhou Chen's main consideration.
It can be said that Sigu Jian relied on his ultimate killing intent and strong spiritual power to transform himself into a killing god. With his unparalleled sword intent, he forced a breakthrough and reached the supreme grandmaster realm.
Ye Liuyun fought against Wu Zhu and imitated Wu Zhu's movement and fighting style. Finally, relying on his superb understanding, he understood Liuyun Sanshou and finally broke through the realm of the Grand Master. He is also the only one among the four Grand Masters who has no support.
The secret book of the temple is the person who broke through the Grand Master, but his combat power should be the weakest among the four Grand Masters.
The last Emperor Qing, the meridians in his whole body were exploded by the powerful Qi. He could hardly move for several months and even lost his hearing, vision and smell. During the breakthrough process, he suffered great physical and mental torture.
Finally he broke through the Grandmaster.
Judging from the breakthrough methods of the four great masters, if you want to become a great master, you must meet the physical and mental standards. Especially in the spiritual aspect, you must be far beyond ordinary people and have absolute faith. This kind of faith cannot be described in words. Only
Only the parties involved can truly understand.
The breakthrough method Zhou Chen chose for himself was to work on both physical and mental aspects at the same time. His mental attributes had reached sixty, which was several times higher than that of ordinary people. Even compared to the great masters, he didn't think he would be better than them.
It's just that the body and Qi are not able to take advantage of the spiritual power.
After entering the state, Zhou Chen frantically absorbed the nuclear radiation energy in the air, inhaling it into his body in the form of 'heaven and earth vitality', forming true energy.
The amount of true energy that exceeded the limit of the meridians in his body slowly lost control and was destroying the meridians in his body. He endured the severe pain and continued to absorb nuclear radiation energy, causing the meridians in his body to be destroyed more and more.
serious.
This is a breakthrough method that draws on the domineering Zhenqi, using Zhenqi to explode the meridians, forcibly changing the meridians and bones of the body, and transforming oneself in an inhuman direction.
This process is extremely painful, but Zhou Chen has experienced countless pains. When detoxifying the fire and cold poison, he even broke the bones, pulled out the poison, and reshaped the body, so he is definitely a professional in enduring the pain.
I don't know how much time passed. Gradually, Zhou Chen felt as if he had lost control of his body. He couldn't hear sounds, smell, or see anything. It was as if he was in boundless darkness.
But the strong spiritual power made him clearly understand that he was still alive and there was hope for him.
Just when he felt that he was about to lose his strength, he quickly communicated with the system and directly added points to his physique.
When he came to this world, he had a total of fifteen attributes. He created his own skills and added eight points of spirit, but now he still has seven attributes left.
After adding a little physical strength, the pain he felt weakened a little, and then he became violent again, continuing to absorb the 'energy of heaven and earth' to enhance the true energy in his body.
Just now, because I had gained a little more physical strength, some of my meridians had recovered, but they were burst again, and a new round of severe pain hit me.
He gritted his teeth and added a little more physical strength, and then continued the previous operation, repeating this several times.
During this process, he couldn't feel the passage of time at all, and he didn't know what his current situation was.
If someone is in the cave, they will find that Zhou Chen has completely turned into a bloody man, and he no longer looks human, which is very scary.
The sun rises and sets repeatedly, and five days have passed. Zhou Chen on the ground has long been silent, as if he has turned into a dead person. But if you get closer, you will find that his breathing is still there, but it has become extremely weak.
In the blink of an eye, another two days passed. Suddenly, Zhou Chen, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly trembled with his closed eyes, and then a strong wind blew up in the entire cave. Countless "vital energy of heaven and earth" in the air poured into Zhou Chen's body crazily.
.
This process lasted for a long time until Zhou Chen opened his eyes.
"boom!"
The entrance to the cave that had been sealed by Zhou Chen exploded with a bang, but Zhou Chen didn't move, he just stared.
"Finally, it's done."
Like a child who has just learned to speak, his voice is awkward and dry, and cannot be coherent.
But Zhou Chen's eyes were full of excitement. In just a few days, he experienced life and death many times, and finally found a balance between the horror of life and death, combining mental strength with physical strength to achieve
The realm of the supreme master.
"Live towards death, live towards death, and live after death."
To be able to break through the Grand Master, in addition to his own deduction, the role of the system is indispensable. Fortunately, he has the habit of saving attribute points in the past. He has accumulated enough attribute points to allow him to jump repeatedly on the edge of death.
, the final breakthrough.
Of course, this is also part of his calculations. He does not have the secrets of the temple, nor does he have the understanding of Ye Liuyun, but he has his own golden finger, which is why he has the confidence to break through the Grand Master.
He even has one last step. Even if this breakthrough fails and his body dies, he still has a system item. Reopening the card can give him another chance to be resurrected.
But in that case, he would have to start over again, and it would be full of uncertainty. Then he might not have the courage to make a breakthrough in the horror of life and death like this time.
Zhou Chen also has to admit that even after living for a long time, he is still afraid of death. He is still far from reaching the state of hearing the Tao in the morning and dying at night.
The system is the basis for his breakthrough, and reopening the card is the basis for his survival. Both are indispensable.
But no matter what, he finally won the bet. He came to this world and planned for more than four years. Today, he finally succeeded.
Feeling the unprecedented strength in his body, even when he was the best in the world in the Lotus Tower world, he was still far behind what he is now.
He truly realized that the great master was indeed not a human being.
