Chapter 16 Seventh Body Refinement!

Carrying more than 30,000 taels of silver, Luo Xiu once again came to the store selling formation devices.

Because of hunting and fighting in the Shuiwu Mountain in recent days, Luo Xiu's clothes were damaged in many places, which was incompatible with the people in the gorgeous clothes that went in and out of this shop.

"Shopkeeper, get me a first-level spirit gathering array device." Luo Xiu walked into the store and said directly.

The middle-aged shopkeeper behind the counter was slightly stunned, "Is it really necessary to buy it objectively? The first-level spirit gathering array costs ten thousand taels of silver."

Obviously, the shopkeeper did not think this ragged boy could afford it.

Luo Xiu did not say much, took out the silver notes and threw them on the counter.

Seeing the thick stack of silver notes, the middle-aged shopkeeper suddenly smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, objectively, wait a moment, I'll get it for you now."

After a while, the middle-aged shopkeeper walked out with an exquisite round wooden box and said, "Objectively, this is the first-level spirit gathering array you want."

The wooden box is opened and there is a disc inside, with complex patterns engraved on it. There is also a slot in the center of the disc. In addition, there are simple instructions for use on the lid of the wooden box.

"Do you want to use the Yuanqi Stone to open it?" Luo Xiu frowned.

"Haha, I probably don't know anything about it. Most auxiliary array devices require the Yuanqi Stone to open, and only some combat-type array devices are somewhat different." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

"Bang!"

Luo Xiu took out another 10,000 taels of silver notes and threw them on the counter, saying, "Do you have a vital stone here? Give me a few."

The middle-aged shopkeeper was overjoyed. He didn't expect that the inconspicuous young man in front of him would be so generous. He quickly ordered someone to take the Yuanqi Stone.

Soon, another wooden box was delivered, with twenty round ore the size of a palm scattered with milky white halo.

Luo Xiu put away his things and was about to leave when two people walked into the store.

These two men are one man and one woman. The man is wearing white clothes. He looks like a rich young man, with a condescending arrogance between his eyebrows.

The woman was wearing a blue skirt, bright eyes and white teeth, seductive red lips, slim figure and fair skin.

Seeing these two people, Luo Xiu was slightly stunned. It was Liu Yuxin and Xu Fei.

"Luo Xiu?" Liu Yuxin was a little surprised when she saw him, because as far as she knew, Luo Xiu could definitely not afford any of the formation devices in this store under the conditions of Luo Xiu.

"Hmph, my clothes are so torn like this, I dare to come here to embarrass you?" Xu Fei snorted coldly, with disdain on his face.

However, Luo Xiu ignored Xu Fei and walked straight past them and left the store.

Seeing that Luo Xiu dared to ignore him, Xu Fei's eyes turned cold, "Stop it!"

"You have something to do?" Luo Xiu looked back, frowned, a little impatient.

"I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me?" Xu Fei said coldly.

"Why should I hear it?" Luo Xiu smiled disdainfully, turned around and left.

"Bastard!" Xu Fei was furious, but Luo Xiu had already gone away and ignored his intentions.

Xu Fei really wanted to teach this poor boy a lesson, but with Liu Yuxin beside him, he had to maintain his demeanor, so he could only endure it.

"There is half a month left to be the annual assessment. I want to see how you can be Zhang Hai's opponent!"

...

After walking out of the formation shop, Luo Xiu went to the weapon shop again and sold Wang Yun's sword and Zhang Hun's bow and arrow, with more than 800 taels of silver in his hand.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Xiu went to the elixir shop and spent 15,000 taels of silver to buy a Qi-nourishing Pill.

However, Luo Xiu did not return to the Martial Palace, but walked out of Qingyun City and came to Shuiwu Mountain again.

The mountains and rivers here are beautiful and there are many plants and trees. For Luo Xiu, it is more suitable for himself to practice than in the martial arts hall.

Found a secluded place, Luo Xiu sat cross-legged, took out the spirit gathering array disc device first, and placed a piece of Yuanqi stone in the groove in the center. The engraved lines on it suddenly lit up and emitted a faint light.

Luo Xiu could clearly sense that the vital energy of the nearby heaven and earth seemed to be driven by some mysterious force and gathered towards his location.

This is the wonderful use of the spirit gathering array, which can condense the vitality of heaven and earth, and within a certain range, speed up the level of cultivation of warriors.

Luo Xiu immediately took out the Qi-nourishing Pill, took out one and put it into his mouth, then closed his eyes, and carried out the meridian acupoints in his body, and used the Yi-strong muscles and bones to forge.

The essence of heaven and earth, the essence of plants and trees, the power of elixirs, and the pure internal energy condenses in the body, turning into the extreme qi of life and death, and refining it into the internal organs.

Before he knew it, the sky became dark, and Luo Xiu had been practicing here for a day.

Luo Xiu could clearly feel that his heart was beating more powerfully, and the power contained in his body was getting stronger and stronger.

boom!

A surging force emerged in his body, and Luo Xiu suddenly opened his eyes, looking happy.

"Successfully, the seventh level of body refining!"

It was already a little dark at this moment. Luo Xiu stood up to move his muscles and bones, feeling that his strength had improved a lot.

Luo Xiu did not expect that he had broken through the seventh level of body refining in just one day. As far as he knew, other people of the same age, especially those disciples of aristocratic families, had better cultivation conditions, but it would take half a year or even longer to achieve this.

"It should be that the life and death beads have improved my body, which has caused my cultivation to multiply countless times." Luo Xiu thought so.

This practice consumed two Qi-raising pills, and the first-level spirit gathering array consumed two Yuan Qi stones. In addition, the essence of grass and trees absorbed by the sucking and spitting, this power would take at least several months to be refined.

However, Luo Xiu could be refined in a very short time, so his cultivation level could be improved so quickly.

Of course, in addition to the impact of the life and death bead on the body, the cultivation effect of his improved Yijin and bone-forging skills is even better than that of the third-grade internal strength.

In the following time, Luo Xiu never returned to the Martial Palace. He always practiced in the Shuiwu Mountains, went out to hunt during the day, honed himself in fighting with monsters, and devoted himself to practicing hard at night.

Before we knew it, time quietly passed, and the martial arts palace of Qingyun City ushered in an annual assessment.

Students who are fourteen years old in the junior class and seventeen years old in the intermediate class must undergo an assessment. If they pass the assessment, they will be promoted. If the assessment fails, they will have to leave the Martial Palace.

In the vast martial arts performance field, thousands of martial arts students gathered together, gathering in groups of three or five, talking and making noise.

On the competition platform more than three meters high, a table is placed in the center, and there is a crystal-like sphere on the table.

This crystal ball is a formation device used to test cultivation. As long as the internal energy is poured into it, the crystal ball will emit light. According to the brightness of the light, the cultivation level can be roughly determined.

Many students who are about to undergo the assessment are uneasy, but students who meet their own strengths are calm and composed.

Luo Xiu also rushed back from Shuiwu Mountain. He first returned to his residence to take a shower, changed into clean clothes, and then came to the assessment site.

Many students in the Martial Arts Palace are naturally not unfamiliar with Luo Xiu. It is said that as early as more than two months ago, he had already had the fifth level of physical training and could defeat students in the intermediate class. It is naturally no problem to pass this assessment.

However, the battle between Zhang Hai and Luo Xiu has been known to everyone, so when they saw Luo Xiu coming, many people started to discuss it.

"This Luo Xiu is so brave. Zhang Hai is a genius in the intermediate class. I heard that he was in seclusion some time ago and was already at the eighth level of body refining!"

"Who said no? If Teacher 6 hadn't protected this Luo Xiu, he would have been beaten to be disabled by Zhang Hai."

"I heard that Zhang Hai's cultivation level has reached the eighth level of physical refining, and it is logical that he should be promoted to the advanced class, but in order to avenge his younger brother, he was not going to participate in this assessment. He just waited for Luo Xiu to be promoted to the intermediate class and then taught him a lesson."

"This Luo Xiu disappeared for a long time. I guess he should be afraid, so he hid."

For most people, no one thinks that Luo Xiu can be Zhang Hai's opponent.

When Luo Xiu faced the discussions, ridicule and questioning around him, he was calm and relaxed and comfortable, which made people wonder. Doesn’t this guy know that Zhang Hai is already at the eighth level of body refining?

The eighth level of body refining is already a top expert among the students in the martial arts hall. Only a very small number of people have reached the ninth level of body refining, all of whom are in the advanced class.

If you can break through the ninth level of body refining and become a warrior, you can graduate directly from the Martial Palace, and all forces in Qingyun City will rush to win over.

"Quiet!" At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the martial arts field.

Everyone looked in the sound and saw a middle-aged man in a green robe standing on the competition stand, scanning around, "People who participated in this year's assessment will leave!"

Many students in the martial arts palace stopped talking and clamoring, and figures, including Luo Xiu, stepped out one after another.

Among the crowd behind, cold eyes stared at Luo Xiu's back.

"Brother, he will be a student in the intermediate class after passing the assessment. When you fight with him, the Wudian teacher will have no reason to stop him from intervening. You must help me teach him a lesson!" Zhang Hao said gritting his teeth.

Whenever he remembered that he was beaten hard by a poor boy who had always looked down upon, Zhang Hao felt very embarrassed.

"Don't worry, I would rather not be promoted to the advanced class this time than to avenge you!" Zhang Hai nodded and said.

Although Zhang Hai is already qualified to enter the advanced class for the eighth level of physical training, he is only fifteen years old this year and is not in a hurry. Even the treatments that can be enjoyed by the advanced class can be easily obtained with the Zhang family's background.

The elder of the Martial Palace who was in charge of the assessment had a list of them and said indifferently: "First, Yuntong!"

"yes!"

A young girl from the junior class walked out, climbed to the competition platform, and placed her palm on the crystal ball.

"Buzz!"

Accompanied by a wave of tremors, the crystal ball burst out with brilliant light.

"Yun Tong, the fifth level of body refining, can pass the assessment and be promoted to the intermediate class!" The elder in charge of the assessment smiled and nodded and announced.

When the girl who was called Yun Tong was relieved when she heard the confirmation of the elder in the assessment, there were many envious eyes in the audience, especially those who were not sure to pass the assessment.

Immediately afterwards, the elders of the assessment read out their names, and more than a dozen people went on stage to take the exam, including those in junior class and intermediate class, but there were only three people who passed the assessment, and all the others were eliminated, packed up their things within three days and left the Martial Palace.

The rules set by the Martial Palace are not difficult for some aristocratic families, but for students from civilian origins, there is almost no hope for them to reach the fifth level of body refining at the age of fourteen and eighth level of body refining at the age of seventeen.

Among the students in the Wu Palace, civilians account for the majority.

When practicing martial arts, there are differences in talent and qualifications. Only a very small number of people have extremely high talent. For ordinary children, there may not be anyone who can pass the assessment in a few years.

As more and more people were unable to pass the assessment, the atmosphere became a little nervous. Those students who failed the assessment could only cry, while those disciples from aristocratic families who were not far away were full of disdain, ridicule, and gloating.

"Next, Luo Xiu!" On the martial arts competition stage, the elder of the assessment pronounced this name.

In an instant, countless gazes gathered on the boy in black.

The name Luo Xiu was so popular in the martial arts hall some time ago. In a short period of time, his cultivation level soared to the fifth level of body refining, and even the students in the intermediate class were not his opponents.

Walking up to the competition stage, Luo Xiu looked at the crowd below and saw Zhang Hai, and Zhang Hao beside him. Behind the two brothers were Lu Feng and others standing, looking at him with coldness.

Especially Zhang Hai's eyes were filled with arrogance and indifference. For him, who had already broken through to the eighth level of body refining, even if Luo Xiu could pass this assessment, he was destined to be deposed by himself and then expelled by the Martial Palace!

A sneer appeared on the corner of Luo Xiu's mouth, wanting to see what expressions these guys would look like when they saw that their cultivation level had reached the seventh level of body refining?

He slowly raised his palm and placed it on the crystal ball, and the life and death qi poured into it.

"Buzz!..."

The dazzling light suddenly lit up, even more dazzling and eye-catching than any of the lights attracted by anyone before!
