Time and Space Codex

At the early stage of Huangji Realm, the "qi pool" has become dozens of times larger, as big as a basketball.

The true qi in the qi pool is still very scarce, only a ball the size of an egg, less than one-tenth of the capacity of the qi pool.

Only by cultivating the true qi in the qi pool to the full can we hit the next realm, the middle stage of Huangji Realm.

Zhang Ruochen sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, opened the imprint of martial arts between his brows, and began to practice the first level of "Tai Huang Huang Jing Tian" in "Jiu Tian Ming Di Jing".

Genuine Qi flows out of the Qi pool, and flows through the whole body along the opened meridian.

With the movement of true energy in his body, Zhang Ruochen's body seemed to turn into a vortex, slowly absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

The aura of heaven and earth flows into the imprint of martial arts between the eyebrows.

The Divine Martial Seal converts the aura of heaven and earth into true qi and stores it in the qi pool. True Qi flows out of the Qi Pool, along the meridians, and circulates throughout the body.

True Qi circulates in the body once, which is a cycle.

After running for nine whole days, when Zhang Ruochen opened his eyes again, he found that the amount of zhenqi in his body had doubled, reaching one-tenth of the capacity of the qi pool.

If other warriors knew that they could double the amount of zhenqi in their bodies in such a short period of time, they would definitely be ecstatic.

However, Zhang Ruochen was a little dissatisfied, "It's too slow to increase such a little qi after practicing for nine weeks! It would be great if I could get a spirit crystal! My cultivation speed can also be increased by a bit." Times!"

You know, Zhang Ruochen is practicing the "Jiutianmingdijing", and the speed of absorbing true energy is faster than those martial artists who practice low-level skills.

The current speed of cultivation naturally made him very dissatisfied.

If one spirit crystal can be obtained, the speed of cultivation can be greatly increased.

Spirit crystal, which is gathered into spar by spiritual energy.

You can dig "natural spirit crystals" in the underground mine veins, or kill wild beasts to dig out the "acquired spirit crystals" in the beasts.

The value of a spirit crystal is generally equivalent to the value of a thousand silver coins, and only princes and nobles, or geniuses cultivated by big families, have the opportunity to obtain spirit crystals.

One thousand silver coins is definitely a huge number for Zhang Ruochen and Concubine Lin, and it is impossible to afford it.

"Lingjing!"

Zhang Ruochen's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately took out the white jujube-shaped spar that he had been wearing all the time, and held it in the palm of his hand.

Could this be a spirit crystal?

As the qi circulated in his body, the imprint of martial arts between his brows immediately emerged and turned into a coin-sized circular halo.

A white qi shot out from between the eyebrows and hit the white spar.

"Wow!"

On the surface of the white spar, four ancient characters emerged.

So weird!

Zhang Ruochen had never seen such words before, but he recognized the four words at a glance - "Space-time spar".

You know, in the last life, Zhang Ruochen also injected true energy into the white spar, but he never inspired the words on the surface of the spar.

"In my last life, my cultivation was hundreds of times stronger than now, and I didn't let words appear on the surface of the white spar. In this life, my cultivation at the early stage of Huangji Realm actually changed the white spar. It's not because of the strength of true energy, but because of the attribute of true energy."

For example, for warriors with the imprint of Lie Yan Shen Wu, the effect of using fire attribute spirit crystals is the best, which can achieve three times the speed of cultivation. Using ordinary spirit crystals can only achieve twice the speed of cultivation.

In nature, 90% of spirit crystals have no attributes. Just like 90% of martial artists can only inspire martial arts imprints without attributes.

"Could it be that the Divine Martial Seal I opened also has some kind of attribute, which just fits with this space-time spar? Wait a minute, what is a space-time spar?"

Zhang Ruochen was the son of the Emperor Ming in his last life, and he has a wide range of knowledge. He has heard of spirit crystals of many attributes, such as red flame spirit crystals, black ice spirit crystals, thunder and lightning spirit crystals, evil blood spirit crystals... However, he has never heard of time and space. Spirit crystals of attributes.

Because time and space cannot be controlled by human beings at all, even gods cannot shake time and space, and must follow the rules of time and space.

Just when Zhang Ruochen was still puzzled, a halo appeared on the surface of the space-time spar and turned into a vortex.

The vortex keeps getting bigger and envelops Zhang Ruochen's body.

Zhang Ruochen felt the world spinning for a while, and the next moment, he came to a closed space and fell heavily on the hard ground.

Fortunately, he completed the marrow washing pulse and reached the early stage of Huangji Realm, and his body has strengthened a lot. If he fell with his fragile body before, he would probably have died from the fall.

Zhang Ruochen got up from the ground, moved his aching muscles and bones, and began to observe the surrounding space.

This space is completely enclosed, with no doors or windows in sight. The height of the space is about ten meters, and the length and width are about ten meters.

"How did this happen? Where did I come in? Where is this place? Hey! There is a stone platform there!"

In the entire space, there is only one stone platform.

On the stone platform was a scrolled painting and a silver iron book. Other than that, there is nothing else!

Zhang Ruochen took the lead to get the painting, but the painting was extremely heavy, as if it was integrated with the stone platform, no matter how much force Zhang Ruochen used, the scroll would not move at all.

Since he couldn't pick up and open the scroll, Zhang Ruochen could only give up temporarily, and then stared at the thin silver iron book.

On the surface of the silver iron book, four words were written: "Time and Space Secret Code!"

This time, Zhang Ruochen was prepared. He circulated his true energy all over his body, mobilized all his strength, and opened the first page of "The Secret Code of Time and Space".

"So... easy?"

"Secrets of Time and Space" is very easy to read without any effort.

Zhang Ruochen shook his head resentfully, stopped circulating his true energy, picked up the "Secret of Time and Space", held it in his hand, and read it carefully.

What is recorded on the first page of "Time-Space Secret Code" is not a cultivation secret code, but the records of the previous master of the Time-Space Crystal, "Sage Monk Xumi".

Zhang Ruochen finally understood everything after reading the notes of the Holy Monk Xumi.

"It turns out that the imprint of the gods and martial arts that I opened turned out to be the imprint of the divine martial arts of time and space. According to the Holy Monk Xumi, none of the hundreds of millions of people can activate the imprint of the divine martial arts of time and space. From ancient times to the present, there have been only two people, including me, three." ."

"Saint Monk Xumi is the second person who opened the mark of time and space, but according to the time he recorded in the "Time and Space Secret Code", he died more than 100,000 years ago. More than 100,000 years ago, that It's already the Middle Ages, it's too far away from now."

The space Zhang Ruochen is in now is the inner space of the spar.

The speed of time flow in the inner space is completely different from that of the outside world. Three days of practice in the inner space, and only one day in the outside world.

Zhang Ruochen was overjoyed and excitedly said, "I practiced inside for three days, and only one day outside. Isn't it three times more training time than others out of thin air? It's great."

Zhang Ruochen wanted to read the second page of "Secrets of Time and Space", but no matter what method he used, he couldn't open the second page.

"Can't open again."

Zhang Ruochen had the urge to throw "Secrets of Time and Space" on the ground. Suddenly, there was a line of small characters on the last row of the first page he read.

"Cultivate to the small extreme of Huangji Realm, inject true energy into the scroll, and you can open the scroll."

Zhang Ruochen stared at the picture scroll again, guessing in his heart that there must be some kind of mysterious exercises recorded in the picture scroll, which might be related to the time and space of practice.

"Cultivate hard and strive to break through to the small extreme as soon as possible. Let's see what secrets are hidden in the scroll?"

"Small pole" is the fourth small realm of Huangji realm, and further up is the middle pole, big pole, and Dzogchen.

Zhang Ruochen felt a sense of hunger in his stomach, and immediately withdrew temporarily from the inner space of the space-time spar and returned to his room again.

He held the space-time spar tightly in his hands. With this spar, he would be more confident in cultivating to the late stage of Huangji Realm within three months.

Zhang Ruochen, Concubine Lin, and Yun'er, the maid, sat down and had breakfast together.

What they eat is just white rice and steamed buns, and there is no meat at all.

For warriors, they consume much more physical strength than ordinary people, so what they eat is very important.

The other princes and princesses who have activated the mark of divine martial arts eat "blood pills" made from the blood of savage beasts every day, and they no longer eat ordinary food.

Taking one blood pill can supplement the physical exertion of the whole day. Even if you practice boxing and swordsmanship for a day, you won't feel hungry.

What's more, taking the blood pill still improves the blood energy, strengthens the martial body, and increases the strength of the physical body.

If Zhang Ruochen ate white rice and steamed buns, even if he ate eight meals a day, it would not be enough to consume his body.

"Chen'er, you have activated the mark of divine martial arts, and you can no longer eat ordinary food. You should accept these ten blood pills first, and if they are not enough, mother is thinking of other ways." Concubine Lin took out a jade bottle, Pass it to Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen was gnawing on steamed buns. He never thought that Concubine Lin could take out ten blood pills, and said with some doubts: "Mother, five silver coins can only buy one blood pill, and ten blood pills are fifty silver coins. Where did you get so much money?"

Concubine Lin smiled and said, "Mother always has a way."

The maid Yun'er stood behind Concubine Lin and said, "Your Majesty, she sold her favorite Buyao Nobile and went to Pill City to exchange for ten blood pills!"

Concubine Lin glared at Yun'er lightly, as if blaming her for talking too much, and then said: "Chen'er, don't think too much, as long as you can cultivate into a real warrior, mother will sell all the accessories , and will support you in your cultivation."

Zhang Ruochen was extremely moved. He tightly squeezed the jade bottle in his hand, bit his lip, and wanted to tell Concubine Lin that he had cultivated into a real warrior now.

No, this cannot be done.

It was too fast to open up the qi pool and complete the marrow washing and pulse pulse in just one night. If the news accidentally leaked out, it would definitely reach the ears of other princes and queens. When the time comes, it will harm both herself and Concubine Lin.

He is still too weak now and needs a stronger force.
