Chapter 11: Breaking through Level 8
It didn't take long for the whole meeting to end.
After discussing the issue of exploring the mysterious planet, the attendees secretly awarded Yunyi the rank of captain and a third-class gold star. The reward for the rank is nothing, but the third-class Gold Star Medal is a big fit for Yun Yi's heart.
You must know that in the heyday of the Zhao and Song Empires, the third-class Gold Star Medal would only be issued once every ten years, and those who could get the Gold Star Medal were all famous generals in the history of the empire, including some famous generals who grew up listening to the name of Yun Yi.
Even if there is only this small base left in the current empire, the Order of the Gold Star of the Third Class is rarely issued.
However, at Zhao Xuanxin's request, his medal could only be regarded as a secret award, because the base did not want to make this matter public. Although I don't know what they think, but there are difficulties in thinking about it, Yun Yi didn't think much about it, so he agreed to this request.
At the end of the meeting, Zhao Xuanxin did not let Yunyi leave alone, but took him back to his home.
A long time ago, when Yun Yi was young, he often fantasized about what kind of life those high-ranking officials and ministers of the empire would live. But when he walked into the separate house of the king of Zhenbei, Yun Yi was still stunned.
There are no lavish decorations, no countless servants, no endless food, no endless wine. Everything is like Yun Yi's home when he was a child.
The ordinary house, the two or three servants who walked by in a hurry, the simple decoration, everything, is so similar to the home in Yun Yi's memory.
"What do you want to eat?" Zhao Xuanxin took Yun Yi to a small restaurant and asked kindly like an old man next door.
Yun Yi scratched his head embarrassedly, what he had been eating from the food machine for more than a year. If you eat a little bit of that stuff once in a while, you might think it tastes really good. But if you eat almost the same thing every day, no matter how delicious it is, you will get tired of it.
"That...... Can you have some home-cooked side dishes......"
"Haha." Zhao Xuanxin laughed heartily and said, "Looking at your appearance, you know what you have eaten for more than a year." As he spoke, he summoned the attendants who were waiting at the door and whispered a few words.
After the attendant went out, Zhao Xuanxin carefully observed the young man in front of him. The short, black, somewhat messy hair, the slightly delicate and resolute face, the dark eyes, the straight nose and the lips that look like knives, all show that the young man in front of him is not only handsome, but also has a resolute character and an indomitable spirit.
For knowing people, Zhao Xuanxin thinks that he still has some vision.
"By the way, Yun Yi, I heard you say that your martial arts have been cultivated to the seventh level high level. Tsk, it only took more than 1 year to go from just stepping into the sixth level to now about to enter the eighth level, and I have suffered a lot in the past year or so. ”
Listening to the old man's inquiry, Yun Yi couldn't help but recall what happened to him during this time. The sacrifice of comrades-in-arms, the crash of a spaceship, the fierce monsters, the lonely life...... Thinking about it, the corners of his eyes were a little sour.
"Hehe, it's all my fault for this old man, why do you mention these things well......" Zhao Xuanxin saw Yun Yi's appearance, and guessed what he was thinking, and immediately changed the topic: "Your progress in martial arts, can you calculate the time when you enter the eighth level?" ”
At the mention of martial arts, Yun Yi suddenly came to his senses, and confidence overflowed on his face, and said without thinking: "Lord Wang, give me a month, and I will definitely be able to break through the barrier and enter the level of the eighth level." ”
"Oh? Are you telling the truth? Zhao Xuanxin originally estimated that after Yun Yi left that harsh environment, he would definitely relax his requirements for himself, and the time to break through to the eighth level was probably at least a year, but he didn't expect that he would only give himself a month.
"Good! Young people are energetic and motivated! Zhao Xuanxin laughed and said: "That's it, I'll give you three months, you don't have to participate in any work, concentrate on cultivating for me." If you can enter the eighth level within three months, I will change your rank to two bars, do you have any confidence? ”
The military rank of the empire is similar to that of most countries in the universe, and the rank of a lieutenant is marked by a bar, one star for a second lieutenant, two stars for a lieutenant, and three stars for a captain. And when it comes to the officer, the mark of the rank will become two horizontal bars, and the major is a star, and the lieutenant colonel, colonel, and colonel will add an additional star on top of the previous layer. As for the rank of the general, it became a simple shape of a dazzling golden battleship at one end, a simple shape of a mecha emitting white light at the other end, and in the middle, the brigadier general had no star, the major general had a star, and so on.
And what Zhao Xuanxin meant was to promote Yun Yi, who had just been promoted to captain, to the rank of major.
Major...... Yun Yi's heart couldn't help but start fantasizing. In the Empire, a major can command a main-class battleship, he can command a large group of mecha warriors, if he can master a large group of mecha warriors, wouldn't it be more hopeful to take revenge?
Immediately, Yun Yi stood up excitedly and looked at Zhao Xuanxin eagerly: "Lord Wang, it won't take three months, it only takes one month, and I will definitely be able to break through to the eighth level." ”
As he was talking, an attendant walked in with a few plates, all of which were home-cooked side dishes, and Yun Yi suddenly felt an appetite.
"Hahaha, I said that three months for you is three months, so you can give me a good practice." Zhao Xuanxin motioned for Yun Yi to sit down, then pointed to the dishes on the table and said, "I didn't let the chef cook more of a few home-cooked dishes, just enough for the two of us to eat." Don't waste it, although the food in the base is enough now, it's not something we can squander at will, these ...... It's all the soldiers who have worked so hard to get it. ”
In a word, the Tao broke through the difficulties of the current base.
I remember the base more than a year ago, at least I don't have to worry about food and other supplies. At that time, it could also get the support of several countries that had been friendly with the Zhao and Song empires.
Yun Yi didn't say anything more, with Zhao Xuanxin, he always felt like something was blocked in his heart, and he just wanted to find a few villains from the government army to vent his dissatisfaction.
After leaving Zhao Xuanxin's residence, Yun Yi went directly back to the house arranged for him. Originally, he wanted to find his former friends, but he immediately remembered that it seemed that his former self didn't have many friends to talk to except for studying and cultivating.
For the next month, Yunyi's only activity every day was cultivation.
During this period, Zhao Xuanxin also came to visit him, but when he saw Yun Yi's state of devoting himself to cultivation, he didn't bother him. The current base is too short of high-level fighters.
A small house located in the northeast residential area of the base, the furnishings in the house are a little messy, and some boxes of convenience food are stacked in the trash can at the door, from these two points, it can be seen that the owner of this house is not a diligent person.
Several of the neighbors around were a little curious about the new move-in, the young man who lived in seclusion. Most of the neighbors didn't know who the new man was, but they had heard from a few of them that it was a young single man with the rank of captain.
At this time, the house was empty. And on the rooftop of the roof, Yun Yi was sitting cross-legged there, his eyes closed, trying to control the true qi in his body.
After a month of hard cultivation, Yun Yi felt that the internal force in his body was completely enough to impact the seventh-level barrier. As long as he broke through this barrier, he could enter the ranks of the eighth level of martial arts. Speaking of barriers, it is just a general term for the difficulty encountered in breaking through the martial arts, but in fact, what you need to do to break through the current level is to accumulate more and stronger internal force, and then attack the blocked acupoints that have not been reached before.
Breaking through the acupuncture points makes the internal force flow range in your body larger, and can accommodate more internal force, which is a breakthrough.
After a brief recall of the description of breaking through the eighth layer in the "Breaking the Waves" that he had learned, what he should do now is to use the power of his whole body and control the internal force to break through the five acupoints located at the head of Fengchi, Chengling, Zhengying, Muzhuang and Benshen.
The strong internal force, flowing jubilantly in the incomparably wide meridians of Yunyi, rushed towards the Fengchi point behind his head under the control of Yunyi. At the first impact, Yun Yi felt a little dizzy, and the Fengchi acupoint was not broken through, but only slightly loosened.
I didn't expect this acupoint to be so difficult.
Yun Yi frowned secretly, and once again surged up his internal force, dividing the striker into three arrows to attack.
Under the impact that was even more violent than the first time, the acupuncture points loosened in a wide range, and Yun Yi was not so comfortable, and the violent dizziness made him feel weak.
After a short rest, Yun Yi was lucky for the third time. This time, he merged the forwards of the internal force into a single arrow, and after taking a deep breath, the fierce impulse of the internal force in his body went forward like a stormy wave.
At the moment of hitting the Fengchi Acupoint, Yun Yi suddenly felt that his eyes were dark, and he immediately divided a small part of his internal force to protect the meridians around the Fengchi Acupoint. However, smoothly, the Fengchi Cave finally broke open under the thunderous impact of Yunyi.
At this time, Yun Yi did not stop, summoning this internal force and continuing to charge inward.
The three acupuncture points of Chengling, Zhengying, and Muzhuang were like broken bamboos, and they were broken through by Yunyi's strong internal force, and finally crashed into the last Honshen Acupoint before stopping.
This divine cave is not something that can be opened by bumping.
According to the record in "Breaking the Waves", to break through this dangerous acupoint, the internal force in the body should be minimized, so that it is divided into dozens or even hundreds of small internal force flows, and then take turns to impact the congestion of this acupoint.
Precise control of internal forces? This is Yunyi's forte.
Easily, the internal force was divided into more than five hundred parts by him. Not to mention anything else, just the precise control of the internal force of this hand, Yun Yi can be proud of everyone below the innate.
The internal forces have been divided, and the cloud wings control these tiny internal force flows, according to the book, one after the other, hitting the same point in the cave of the gods. And the heavy silt on the Honshen Cave finally collapsed under the continuous impact of Yunyi for an hour.
Breakthrough!
Suddenly, Yun Yi felt a stream of heat, going up to the god and down to the dantian, running happily in the body, constantly strengthening the meridians in the body. Caused by internal force, there is no discomfort in the whole body, and there is a warm feeling everywhere.
Breaking open his eyes, it was obvious that Yun Yi found that his eyesight was much better than when he was at the seventh level before. Clenched his fists, and the blasting power coming from those arms even made Yun Yi feel like he could break through the planet.
Martial Arts Level 8!
Stand on the roof of your house with your head held high, letting the breeze blow softly. Close your eyes and feel the breeze as it passes.
After a long time, he opened his eyes, and a knowing smile appeared on his slightly immature face.
Level 8 will mean that in the entire base, he is the most powerful! Even the captain of the Praetorian Guard, who is known as the strongest person in the base, is just like him, and he is only at the eighth level.
