Chapter 186: Defend Two, Strive for Three, Look at Four

Boom!

The vast power was like a stone thrown into water; the sand screen flew tens of meters high, ripples spread, and a corner of the sand dune collapsed.

The broken horn was like a fuse, wrapping millions of tons of sand and gravel, like a bursting flood, pouring down along the terrain.

A humming sound came from inside the crust, and the golden bell rang long.

For a long time, the earth returned to calm, the eternal morning light dyed the winding ridge line, light and dark interlaced.

A hand broke through the sand layer, grabbed this black-red boundary line, and pulled out the whole body.

"Pfft, pfft, pfft..."

Liang Qu spat out the sand grains, stood up and looked around; no one climbed out of the sand pile.

Won...

"Hiss, the old thing's fist is really heavy, no, no, the bones are broken."

Liang Qu clutched his chest, hurriedly closed his eyes, opened them again, and everything around him returned to the appearance of the bedroom.

The Mirage Insect lay on the spring stool, basking in the sun; the severe pain in his chest disappeared, and the fatigue of his whole body suddenly vanished.

Liang Qu clutched his forehead and sat by the bed.

Less than a quarter-hour passed in the outside world, but he had experienced several rounds of fighting with Liu Jie in the dream; summarizing it, he could fight a seven-three split in bare-handed combat, occupying an advantage, but in armed combat, he only had a three-seven split, occupying a disadvantage.

Combined, it was a five-five split.

It was much better than the one-sided situation on land at the beginning, and with the increase in the number of fights, the winning rate was constantly increasing.

The Dragon-Tiger Golden Body was truly extraordinary; the defense increased greatly, and the strength also had a certain degree of growth.

Liu Jie's ordinary punches and kicks only made Liang Qu feel pain, and couldn't cause any damage at all.

The "Vajra Sutra of Subduing Dragons and Tigers" is probably not just a top-notch high-grade technique.

Liang Qu felt that he had practiced an amazing technique.

Could it be the core secret transmission of the Buddha gate?

What is the old monk's identity?

An old monk at the level of a Perfected Form Grandmaster, placed in the five great true traditions like the Hanging Temple, would at least be a seat master or hall master.

Not to mention giving away a top-notch method casually, and passing it on so casually, not afraid of the ancestors blaming him?

Can't figure it out, really can't figure it out.

"Died" too many times, Liang Qu's brain was a bit dizzy, not convenient to think about too complex problems, so he simply lay on the spring stool, basked in the sun for a while, and by the way communicated with the Water Marsh Tripod to see how much Water Marsh Essence the Two-Life Flower contributed.

【Tripod Master: Liang Qu】

【Refined Water Marsh Spirit: Ze Rong (Green) (Fusion Degree: 134‰)】

【Water Marsh Spirit Favor—Chuan Lord Emperor: Martial Dao Penetrating God First Layer; Ying Dragon Pattern: First Layer】

【Talent Skills: Water Jump, Water Breathing, Water Prison, Riding Water and Surging Waves】

【Water Marsh Essence: 13,834 points】

Last time, 8,672 points remained; Liang Qu used up the extra fraction along with the daily Water Marsh Essence, making it an even 8,500.

The Two-Life Flower contributed more than 5,300 points?

Liang Qu was shocked.

It is worthy of being a heaven and earth treasure exchanged for two great merits; one flower is worth more than half a lifetime of the old giant clam's harvest.

It seems that the absorption rate of pearls is not good; dead objects?

Liang Qu stayed next to the old giant clam; 0.2 points of Water Marsh Essence could be credited every quarter-hour.

If the old giant clam opened its shell, this number could rise to 0.3 per quarter-hour.

Throughout the day, a full 30 points of Water Marsh Essence were attracted.

The old giant clam lived for a thousand years; the Water Marsh Essence should be exaggerated to the point of exaggeration, with a guarantee of ten million.

But all the Water Marsh Essence in the pearl was absorbed, only ten thousand, which is enough to prove that there is a problem of intake rate and absorption rate inside, and the absorption rate of pearls is extremely low, close to one-thousandth.

Whether it is treasure fish, monsters, or dead objects, they all act as a container.

Judging from all the categories contacted so far, under the same quality, the absorption rate of treasure fish is greater than monsters, and greater than dead objects.

As for the pros and cons of the absorption rate of treasure plants and treasure fish, Liang Qu couldn't distinguish them for the time being; he hadn't encountered top-notch treasure fish yet.

More than ten thousand Water Marsh Essence accumulated in the Water Marsh Tripod, like a layer of light blue light treasure liquid, shining with charming luster.

Liang Qu took 34 points of the fraction from it, invested it in the fusion degree, and seeing that the number 134 was not pleasing to the eye, with a thought, the light cast by the Water Marsh Tripod reappeared.

【Tripod Master: Liang Qu】

【Refined Water Marsh Spirit: Ze Rong (Green) (Fusion Degree: 13.4%)】

Changing from thousandths to percent, it looked much more pleasing to the eye.

The remaining ten thousand plus Water Marsh Essence...

Liang Qu decided to continue saving, preparing to go all-in the moment he broke through the visceral pass, to have a big one.

The life essence of the Two-Life Flower basically acted on condensing the Dragon-Tiger Golden Body, but Liang Qu insisted on taking the sturgeon king bone elixir given by Master that day, and the progress of refining the pass was thousands of miles a day.

It would probably break through around the end of May or the beginning of June.

Galloping Horse needs to condense nine orifices.

These are the upper, middle, and lower energy center apertures, the three barrier apertures of the tailbone, spine, and back of the head, plus the yin aperture, yang aperture, and the central palace aperture.

The nine orifices are distributed in the front, back, top, bottom, and middle of the body, with yin and yang combined, and the whole body responding, which is extremely important.

Clearly, there is a visceral pass between the blood pass and the lower Dantian orifice, but the reason why the world divides martial arts cultivation into four passes and seven ways, rather than five passes and seven ways, lies in the fact that once the visceral pass is opened, a mysterious qi will arise in the martial artist's body.

This mysterious qi is called "Qiling Qi" (Enlightening Qi) by ordinary people, and some call it "Gang Qi" (Steel Qi).

Under the action of mysterious qi, the martial artist's lower Dantian orifice opens by itself, and with this step, they cross into the realm of Galloping Horse martial artist.

In this way, there is no need to specifically distinguish the visceral pass.

The two are originally one body.

However, if one can accumulate and develop, one can rely on the mysterious qi born from breaking the visceral pass to open more than one orifice!

Great families, heaven-favored seeds in the true traditions, can rely on this qi to break through the middle Dantian in one fell swoop, open two orifices, and even go straight to the upper Dantian, opening three orifices!

One qi cannot be achieved by taking medicine on the spot; relying on external force is not helpful for breaking the pass.

But Water Marsh Essence is different; its essence is to improve the fusion degree of the Water Marsh Spirit! It is to improve Liang Qu himself!

He not only wants to open orifices but also wants to rely on the mysterious qi generated by breaking the visceral pass to defend two, strive for three, and look at four!

If one could break through the three energy center barriers in one go and open up to the tailbone barrier, even if it's not unprecedented, it would likely be unsurpassed in history.

At least Liang Qu hadn't heard of any ruthless person who could open to four orifices at once.

Realm strength has always been his pain point.

Eighth-rank four passes, a typical low strength and high status.

Although the combat power is not bad, if one looks ugly, no one will care how beautiful one is inside.

This wave must solve the pain point.

Strive to be the first person in history!

The sound of the board door opening and closing came from beside the courtyard.

After living together for a long time, most people can judge who the visitor is from the sound of footsteps.

Liang Qu raised his head, the setting sun shone through the window, it should be Auntie Zhang buying vegetables and coming back to cook.

Da da da.

Auntie Zhang leaned to the window, looked left and right, knocked on the window twice with her knuckles, and shouted in a low voice.

"Master, is Master inside?"

"?"

No, why so sneaky?

"Auntie Zhang, what's the matter?"

The atmosphere was right, and Liang Qu also lowered his voice unconsciously.

"Can Master come out and talk?"

Liang Qu got up and opened the door.

Auntie Zhang looked left and right again, looking very uneasy.

"Rest assured, Auntie Zhang, there is no one around; if there is anyone, I can feel it."

Auntie Zhang said hurriedly.

"I went to buy vegetables earlier, and someone used two taels of silver to ask when Master goes out every day and when he comes home! And told me not to tell you!" ===== CHAPTER 187 =====
