"Killing Sword Body Cultivation Technique" is a superior horizontal practice method, although it is unique, the way of cultivation is still similar to ordinary exercises, such as the gall house is followed by the stomach house, the gall bladder, the stomach, the size of the Yang and then to the waterway, the three jiao, this is the common master realm cultivation process. Unlike some supreme exercises, often even this basic cultivation process will find a new way to bring stronger strength.

And although the "Killing Sword Body Cultivation Technique" is only a superior exercise, it is better to follow the rules and regulations, and the exercises can be changed at any time, which is far from being as extreme as practicing the supreme exercises.

For Liu Heng, such exercises are just right.

From the last breakthrough to the present, several months have passed, and the dark injuries caused by the breakthrough have all recovered, and the unrefined qi and blood in the body have accumulated to a very large extent.

It stands to reason that to reach this point, horizontal martial artists still need to make all kinds of meticulous preparations, such as mood adjustment, physical conditioning, elixir for meditation when breaking the level, and efforts to replenish more qi and blood, etc., roughly about a year after each breakthrough, in order to barely be called safe. But now that the situation is in the current situation, Liu Heng feels more and more pressure, which makes him lose the patience to wait until he is fully prepared.

Behind the bedroom, there is a secret secret room, in which everything about cultivation is available, and a stove to seduce the earth fire is also set up to ensure that the fire will not be extinguished all year round. Although the earth fire is not as good as the strange fire or the spiritual fire and demon fire of the grade, the temperature is much higher than that of common firewood, so Liu Heng is still very satisfied with Liu Heng's arrangement.

There were several cauldrons on the stove, among which there were secret medicines for cultivation and a large amount of high-grade demon meat, which he had already put into the pot before he had negotiated with all parties, and he had been boiling until now, and the heat was already enough.

"Although the stomach mansion of horizontal cultivation is not as mysterious as the gall mansion opened up by the inner family, it can still greatly increase the speed of refining and refining qi, and shorten the time for cultivation in the future. "Henglian and Neijia seem to have the same goal, but in fact, the truth is very different. The inner family is to "transform" the Divine Mansion with internal force, give birth to the gods in it, and open all kinds of wonders of the Divine Mansion, while the horizontal practice focuses on strengthening the Divine Mansion and making it more solid, only using the Divine Mansion as a cover door, and cultivating and eliminating them one by one, so as to become powerful. The two are said to have their own strengths, but if you have to make a comparison, Liu Heng feels that the inner family cultivation is more like a great avenue, with fewer hidden dangers, and the horizontal practice is strong, but it faintly hurts the body, and it can only be called a small path.

Of course, whether it is the inner family or horizontal practice, it is the path to the overlord realm, and for Liu Heng, this is enough. He had deeply experienced the power of the Overlord Realm, so he was deeply impressed, thinking that if he became the Overlord, he would be able to cope with most situations, and of course regarded this as his future goal.

Moreover, in his plan, both Henglian and Neijia should practice, but now it is only because of the situation restrictions, so Henglian is one step ahead, and the Neijia Gongfa will have to keep up in the future. Therefore, even if you are a little anxious for quick success and quick profit when practicing the horizontal practice now, I am afraid that there will be some hidden dangers that cannot be checked, and in the future, the internal family exercises will be improved, and you should be able to make up for a lot, so you don't have to worry too much about this.

"Time is running out. ”

Liu Heng sighed lightly in his heart, opened all kinds of prohibitions in the secret room, sat back on the stove, and without any scruples, he scooped up the cooked meat in the pot and took a big mouthful. If someone can see through, they will definitely be able to see that in Liu Heng's seemingly normal body, every piece of flesh and blood contains amazing qi and blood. Now there is no need to hide it, Liu Heng simply let go of the confinement of his body, so his body expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, the body that was less than nine feet one moment ago, and the next moment it swelled to a foot three feet away, and the momentum still did not weaken.

The loose clothes he wore were quickly tightened, and they cracked inch by inch, and the muscles and flesh of his body bulged to the extreme, and pieces bulged out, like a giant who was about to be burst.

Until the muscles and muscles all over his body became extremely tight, Liu Heng finally stopped eating and opened another pot instead. After a long period of baking, the edges of the pot made of gold and iron even glowed red, and the temperature was so high that it was palpitating. However, Liu Heng didn't care, his hands like a big bucket directly grabbed the two ends of the cauldron, completely ignoring the sneering sound, and picked up the pot and poured the secret medicine into his mouth.

This kind of temperature that is enough to roast people in a short period of time has little impact on the powerhouses of the master realm, let alone practicing martial arts, and even the skin can't make a trace of change.

The secret medicine enters the lower abdomen, which feels like drinking a hot spirit, or the strongest wine, like swallowing a burning knife, if ordinary people inadvertently drink a sip, it is estimated that the body will be pierced with thousands of holes, self-immolation and death. Liu Heng drank it all without changing his face, and he was able to get up and boil another pot, and then he began to focus on dissolving the medicinal power of the secret medicine, guiding the medicinal power to disperse in his body, and integrating into the huge qi and blood hidden in the flesh and blood everywhere.

When the medicinal power and qi and blood meet, it is like golden wind and jade dew, turning into a trace of undetectable sharp energy, which is the sword qi of killing.

Qi and blood turned into a mass of killing sword qi, and Rao is master's horizontal body still felt a huge pressure, and there was no place in his body that was not as good as ten thousand needles and, about to pierce his flesh and blood membrane that was bulging to the extreme.

At this point, Liu Heng didn't dare to be sloppy, and immediately guided the group of killing sword qi to rush to the stomach.

Burst.

As if there was a muffled sound, Liu Heng frowned, and fine sweat stains appeared on his forehead. His lotus root gall mansion shattered in response, and was strangled into fine meat foam by countless killing sword qi, this kind of severe pain is really difficult to describe in words, only by experiencing it firsthand, can it be unforgettable forever.

Fortunately, he had already felt it once before, and this time he had expected it, so without hesitation, he picked up another medicine pot and swallowed another corresponding secret medicine in a big gulp. The new secret medicine is mellow and soft, and if it is spiritual, it will dissipate on its own after reaching the stomach, and with the treacherous power of the ruins of the lotus root gallbladder mansion, it will begin the process of reshaping the stomach like a ghostly axe.

And then it's a cycle of remodeling, destruction, remodeling, and destruction, and so on, and there are no more accidents.

Waiting until the brutal siege of countless killing sword qi could not stop the reshaping of the stomach mansion, the lotus root stomach mansion that was newly born in the suicide killing had a completely different feeling like the gall mansion. It seems that every bit of flesh and blood that makes up the Divine Mansion has turned into sinew, strong and flexible, with strength inside, and more and more a sense of control.

Liu Heng tried it, and with his strength, he was already able to finely grasp the speed of refining things in the stomach, fast or slow, strong or weak, if he tried his best, the refining speed would be at least dozens of times that of the original.

"The martial artist is double. Liu Heng slowly opened his eyes, "There is one less cover door." ”

In just over half a year, it has broken two times in a row, and this speed can definitely be regarded as fast even if it is placed in horizontal practice.

It took a night to break through, and although I could feel that I was getting stronger and stronger, I could also feel a dull pain all over my body, because the promotion process was too domineering, which caused a great burden on the body, which was a major drawback that could never be avoided in horizontal martial arts. The breakthrough process will cause all kinds of hidden dangers, and it must take great energy to recover, and some damage cannot be found or repaired no matter what, the most representative case is the same as the hegemon realm powerhouse, and the horizontal training overlord is often the shortest-lived.

Liu Heng got up, he couldn't stop shaking, he struggled to stabilize his body, and a mouthful of dirty blood gushed out from his mouth and nose and spilled all over the ground.

His majestic body, which had swelled to a height of less than nine feet, was now less than nine feet tall, and he looked very thin everywhere. The position where he sat upright at his feet left a puddle of white stains, which were sweat stains that flowed down his body and were dried by the boiling heat, which was half a finger thick, which showed how intense the consumption was during the breakthrough.

The sweat stains were blood stains again, and the dirty blood that had just been spit out quickly dried up, revealing some fine and indistinguishable debris of various colors, which were impurities quenched by the stomach.

Seeing this, Liu Heng shook his head, took a breath, and finally reluctantly adapted to the body after the huge changes, quickly devoured a large amount of demon meat, and slightly supplemented the huge consumption in the body, before picking up the rag to clean up the scene.

In the early morning, Liu Heng, who had put on the armor of the guard again, seemed to have returned to normal, and walked out of the bedroom with Liu Heng, whose face was somehow a little pale.

"The soul power has been partially consumed again. Liu Heng shook his head, and couldn't help but feel pity for the divine soul that he was still nurturing in the mysterious lotus, "If it goes on like this, I don't know when the divine soul will recover." ”

The reason why the soul of a strong person in horizontal training seems weak is precisely because in the process of cultivation, he will always continue to draw soul power and integrate it into his flesh and blood, in exchange for stronger control over his own body. This is an unstoppable change, and it is also the Achilles' heel of the eternal existence of horizontal martial artists, and it also makes Liu Heng deeply understand the old saying "Since ancient times, it is difficult to achieve both civil and military affairs".

Whether it is the inner family or the horizontal practice, they have all enveloped their soul power into their own cultivation system, especially with the improvement of the realm, they have become more and more eager for soul power. The inner family is to turn the soul power into the light of the will to increase the power of the attack, and the horizontal practice is to treat the soul power as qi and blood, and also refine it into the flesh and blood, making it more sensitive and controllable.

On the other hand, soul cultivation is to transform qi and blood into essence and replenish it to the divine soul.

The opposition between Wendao and martial arts, the higher the realm, the clearer and more intense, and the two sides seem to be unable to coexist.

"It's no wonder that after arriving at the master realm, most of the strong people who have cultivated in each family will make the final choice, either specializing in soul or martial arts, or one or the other. ”

Liu Heng now gradually feels the contradiction in it, it seems that if there is no accident, he must also make a choice, either civil or martial, and he can no longer expect the two to go hand in hand as before. Even if he doesn't make a choice, as he ascends to the realm, the practice will still make a choice for him. Once the main cultivation of martial arts, the strengthened martial arts are destined to devour the weak divine souls, once they focus on soul cultivation, if the realm of the divine souls that have improved too quickly is much stronger than the martial arts, they will also devour all the qi and blood internal forces.

Judging from the current situation, Liu Heng obviously prefers martial arts, and now that he is practicing the martial arts, he is improving rapidly, and if this goes on like this, it seems that it is inevitable that the soul will be devoured and die. For the time being, the cultivation of the divine soul is indeed Liu Heng's weakness, but many mortals know that the martial arts are cut off, and only the soul cultivation goes straight to the supreme holy realm, how can Liu Heng not know?

Even if it is just a trace of unattainable thoughts, it also makes the cultivation of the divine soul seem precious, if it is allowed to perish and die like this, Liu Heng feels reluctant and pity.

How to choose, Liu Heng only felt tricky.

For him for the time being, this is the only relatively big problem in his cultivation, but on the whole, the path of cultivation is quite smooth, and it is definitely much better than "before death".

Leaving the palace gate early, Liu Heng got on the chariot and rushed to the Sifang City Gate, but seeing that the two things of accommodating refugees and selecting soldiers were in full swing, although it was crowded and looked busy, the progress was not slow at all.

After he walked through the four city gates, he always saw that with his arrival, many civil officials and clerks were in a hurry, not only could not help anything, but only added to the chaos, so he could only leave as soon as possible.

Then he went to the school yard in the city, which was also a busy scene, with a steady stream of young men who had been selected for further examination. He couldn't help much, but he learned the lesson from before, so he just watched from a distance for a while and left with interest.

There was nothing to do here, Liu Heng went straight out of Ten Days City and went to the military camp outside the city.

The barracks are like a forest, all over the hills, and when Liu Heng went, the soldiers of the original Wan Yuwei had already completed the early drills.

"Inferior rank to general!"

Hearing the news from afar, Zheng Zhilong and other generals gathered at the gate of the barracks early, and they all saw it together.

Liu Heng returned the salute with a pleasant face, and walked into the barracks under their guidance. The barracks were apparently built later, and it was his first time here, so he paid more attention to it.

"General, look, I think that in the future, the soldiers will be able to have a half-official position, and suddenly changing from an ordinary soldier to a military attaché will definitely need a process of adaptation. Zheng Zhilong's attitude is still very good, "In order to shorten this process, the army has adopted various methods to make them adapt in advance." For example, now, every soldier is alternately the captain of the army, and each soldier is the commander of the day. ”

Liu Heng listened and watched, bowing his head from time to time, and seemed to be in a good mood.

After hearing this, Liu Heng knew that it was very useful, the method itself was not very difficult, it was rare to be able to think of it, which was very commendable. Besides, no matter what idea Zheng Zhilong had behind his back, at least on the surface, he was respectful to Liu Heng, and the things he arranged were not only done dutifully, but also with his heart, and Liu Heng couldn't pick out any thorns if he had the heart, which shows Zheng Zhilong's strong ability.

No wonder after a few years, Liu Heng knew that Zheng Zhilong was not good, but he gradually let down his guard. If he has been doing so well, I can only repeat Liu Heng's mistakes, and there is no way to deal with him. Liu Heng sighed in his heart, "In this case, there is only one way left, and it must be solved as soon as possible, otherwise this Zheng Zhilong will eventually become a big trouble." ”

Zheng Zhilong didn't expect that Liu Heng was ready to make a move on him at this moment, leading Liu Heng to boost morale in the military camp, and on the way to the big tent, he mentioned a rumor as if chatting.

"I don't know if the general has heard the news of the Demon Sect's appearance recently?"
