Chapter 19 Stepping into practice, pain and happiness
As the name suggests, the vitality absorbing body absorbs the vitality of heaven and earth into the body, tempers the flesh, blood, muscles and bones, and improves the strength of the physical body.
Easier said than done.
The stage mark of the absorption of vitality into the body is the first tempering of the physical body. As the vitality of heaven and earth is successfully absorbed into the body, the flesh and blood are tempered for the first time, and the body will produce a special response.
However, Wei Ci kept trying for several days, but with little success. Apart from becoming more energetic, there were almost no other changes.
On the contrary, it was other people. During this period, several people made progress in their cultivation and successfully entered the cultivation field, which was praised by Xing Xiuyuan and Xing Gu.
Among them were Zhang Yu, the son of Zhang Tu, whom he later met, and those he had some impressions of, Hou Li from the Hou family, Zou Yu from the Zou family, and others. Seeing the high-spirited looks of these people, Wei Ci suddenly felt sad.
Already.
Although the days of cultivation are boring and boring, the best thing is that you don’t have to worry about food and housing.
However, as Bai Nianran, who had disappeared for more than a month, appeared and returned, his leisurely days finally came to an end.
Night, Li family courtyard.
The evening breeze blew through the sparse Shan trees and entered the spacious courtyard, bringing a slight chill.
Bai Nianran was wearing a moon-white gown, her hair was tied up, and a silver hairpin simply passed through her hair. She had a slender figure and graceful temperament.
Not far from her side, Wei Ci's legs were slightly spread, his body was squatting in a half-crouch, and a stone weighing about 10 kilograms was tied to each hand, and he was walking with difficulty.
"There are no shortcuts to practice, and the same goes for archery."
Bai Nianran held a simple wooden bow made of iron tree roots in his hand, and said while walking leisurely:
"You are far behind now in terms of strength, endurance, control, physical strength, and toughness, and these are the basic qualities for practicing archery."
Although Wei Ci's hands were sore, he gritted his teeth and persisted, while listening attentively.
Bai Nianran ignored Wei Ci's groan and asked:
"An archer must be familiar with every part of a bow and arrow. Do you know how a bow and arrow are composed?"
Wei Ci asked: "Bow and arrows?"
"Rough and shallow." Bai Nianran retorted.
"Bow and arrows are just general terms. In fact, the former is composed of bow arms and bow strings, while the latter is composed of arrowheads, arrow shafts, arrow tails and arrow feathers.
“Only by understanding the function and composition of each part can we truly master them.”
…
Bai Nianran started from the basics and explained the knowledge of bow and arrow one by one from the shallower to the deeper. The training content also changed from the horse stance to standing exercises, endurance exercises, and concentration exercises.
The climate of Sanye Island is somewhat similar to the spring and summer in the south in previous lives, with humid yet sultry heat.
Half the night passed and Wei Ci was so tired that he was sweating profusely and his whole body was sticky.
This is not over yet, next is the medicinal bath.
Sitting in the bathtub, he started practicing the exercises to cultivate his vitality according to Bai Nianran's requirements. He was surprised to find that those particles that usually floated in the air and did not obey his orders, that is, the vitality of heaven and earth, were actually gathering towards him at this time.
Every inch of skin and every cell in the body begins to greedily absorb the vitality of heaven and earth.
The yellow-green medicinal liquid in the bathtub soothed and nourished his body. Wei Ci felt as if his whole body was cool to the bone while soaking in it, and the fatigue from the night gradually dissipated.
As the vitality of heaven and earth entered his body, Wei Ci clearly felt that his body was like a compressed sponge being released, and his limbs felt extremely comfortable at this moment.
This is completely different from the soreness, swelling, numbness and itching when the air points in the body were forcibly opened to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth during the talent test.
According to the promotion characteristics of the first stage of the first level, he has successfully entered the first stage of the first level - the energy absorption body.
In other words, from this moment on, he officially entered into practice!
The medicinal bath is still going on and is not over yet.
As the energy absorbed into the body, Wei Ci vaguely felt that some invisible impurities in the body were gradually seeping out from the pores as he practiced.
As the medicinal properties of the potion in the bucket are absorbed, the yellow-green color gradually recedes, and the potion gradually becomes turbid. This practice is finally over.
He clenched his fists and stood in the bathtub and performed a stretching motion coquettishly.
Wei Ci was pleasantly surprised to find that after entering the first level, his whole body seemed to be much lighter, and his hands, feet, and limbs also became stronger. It seemed that every cell absorbed energy and was enhanced.
The most important thing is that there are some more filaments in the body that are invisible but can be felt, like airflow.
These air flow filaments are the vitality unique to the first level.
Whenever Wei Ci turns his thoughts and mobilizes these filaments of vitality, these filaments of vitality will spread in the body, as if entering every cell, blessing them.
At this time, Wei Ci could clearly feel that his strength and explosive power had become stronger.
Each realm and stage of the Seven Realms Third Level Cultivation Method has distinct characteristics.
The characteristics of the first stage of the first level are that impurities in the body become fewer and the basic physical quality is improved.
That's exactly what he is now.
Sure enough, having a cheap master is different!
Wei Ci praised in his heart.
According to his usual practice, without this medicinal bath, I don’t know how long it would have been before he started practicing.
After entering into practice, a warrior's requirement for sleeping has been reduced a lot.
With further practice, one day in the future, you can even achieve the legendary "bigu".
While continuing to practice without any sleepiness, Wei Ci once again unexpectedly discovered that since entering the stage of absorbing vitality into the body, his body has been able to automatically absorb the vitality of heaven and earth, although the speed has been much slower.
Three months later.
The island master's martial arts training ground.
After three months of practice, all the more than fifty young people in this class, except for a few who were eliminated along the way, have successfully entered the practice.
Several of the outstanding ones are even infinitely close to the second stage of the first level, opening acupuncture points and unblocking meridians.
Xing Xiuyuan and Xing Gu finished counting the people as usual, but instead of starting teaching as before, they announced a piece of news that made everyone excited and worried.
The time for the annual hunting trial has arrived!
According to the traditional regulations of Sanye Island, the younger generation of disciples will undergo a hunting trial and assessment on the island every year.
They are excited because, after the assessment, the top ranked players will be rewarded with training resources, and the top three will even get a chance to enter the island master's treasure house.
The worry is because trials are different from daily training and may involve life and death crises. In every trial, some people will never come back.
Wei Ci belongs to the former, because he always believes that if there is a real life-and-death crisis, the two teachers will not let it go.
What's more, after experiencing the two encounters in the Cloud Forest, Wei Ci also had some combat experience.
The days of practicing step by step during this period are just like being in jail in high school. This time I am finally going to download a dungeon and do a mission. It would be strange if I am not excited.
The hunt is conducted in teams of two and lasts two days.
While Wei Ci was thinking for a moment, the others quickly formed two groups, and the martial arts training ground was noisy for a while.
Except for Bai Nianran, he had no relatives or friends on the island. It seemed that no one was forming a team with him for a while.
"Well, uh, Wei Ci! Can I form a team with you?" Just when he was struggling to form a team, a young but deep voice came over.
