Chapter 9 Tempering Sutra

The Su family came to Pingyang Town fifteen years ago. At that time, there were only Zheng Bo, Liu Yu and others. Su Hong was fifteen years old, Su Zimo was two years old, and Su Xiaoning was just born.

That year, their parents died.

According to the Su family, when they were passing through the Canglang Mountains, they encountered a beast swarm, and many people died, including their parents.

Over the years, Su Zimo has always had doubts about this statement.

Su Zimo could feel that both the eldest brother and the Su family were deliberately hiding a lot of things from him and his sister, not just the cause of death of their parents.

At the beginning, the eldest brother gave him the mansion, nominally to give him an environment to study in meditation, but Su Zimo knew at the time that the eldest brother just wanted to let him go.

Su Zimo studied hard to get a title, just thinking that he would be able to help his eldest brother one day, but it's a pity...

After returning to the mansion, Su Zimo gradually figured it out.

Since the eldest brother refused to say it, he didn't have to force it. As long as his strength was strong enough, he could survive no matter how big a crisis he faced.

Su Zimo stepped into the training ground. On the blue stone, Dieyue sat lazily on it, without looking sideways, as if she hadn't seen Su Zimo come in.

"I have practiced the ox tongue curling blade." Su Zimo said.

Dieyue 'um', with a lukewarm attitude.

Su Zimo knew that being able to get Dieyue's answer was already a great appreciation.

"Go in and practice." Dieyue pointed to the wooden barrel not far away.

This wooden barrel has been placed in the practice ground for a few days, and it has always been empty, and Su Zimo does not know what to use it for.

Today, the barrels are filled with dark, viscous liquid, exuding a strong medicinal fragrance.

"It turned out to be for my practice."

Su Zimo didn't do what he thought and jumped in directly.

"hiss!"

As soon as he jumped into the wooden barrel, Su Zimo gasped and his face changed greatly.

cold!

it's too cold!

However, within a few breaths, Su Zimo felt that his hands and feet were frozen, a layer of frost covered his hair and beard, his face was blue, his lips were purple, and his body was shaking uncontrollably.

"This, this, what is this?" Su Zimo asked in a trembling voice.

Dieyue said lightly: "If you can't stand it, come out."

Su Zimo really couldn't stand it anymore.

He even felt that if he continued to soak in the barrel, he might freeze to death.

Su Zimo just got up and was about to jump out, but suddenly caught a glimpse of the sneer in Die Yue's eyes, he was angry, gritted his teeth and sat back again.

Only a few dozen breaths passed, the chill was piercing, and Su Zimo's consciousness had begun to blur under the stimulation of this medicinal liquid.

Su Zimo's mind flashed what Dieyue said at the beginning: "If you want to practice this method, you will experience unimaginable dangers, and you may lose your life at any time. Don't expect me to save you."

Su Zimo realized that even if he froze to death here, Dieyue would not rescue him.

Su Zimo simply closed his eyes, ignoring the coldness of his body as much as possible, running the skin-quenching method of breathing, and breathing.

Sudden!

There were a few mysterious and lengthy scriptures in Su Zimo's mind, and Dieyue's voice sounded: "There is only one scripture in the Tempered Body, and I have no foundation to read you, so I took it apart and divided it into two parts: quenching and quenching. There are two parts of quenching the meat. Just now is the scripture for the part of quenching the meat. From today onwards, you must combine them and practice together."

"The breathing method of quenching flesh is taken from the Demon King Stone Bear. Bears have thick flesh and blood, their nature is slow, their shape is majestic, they have the power to erect their necks, the strength of their lateral arms, the power to go out of their holes, and the fierceness to fight tigers. If you fuse the two sets of breathing methods, it is the Body Tempering Sutra."

Dieyue said while pointing at Su Zimo to breathe.

Gradually, Su Zimo found the feeling, and his breathing became longer and slower.

With every breath, the essence of the medicinal liquid in the wooden barrel pours into the body continuously through the pores, scouring the skin and nourishing the flesh and blood.

This cultivation method is more direct and effective than refining after swallowing flesh and blood!

Su Zimo seemed to be able to feel that his flesh and blood were filling up, his skin became stronger and stronger, and his figure seemed to have grown a lot.

If Su Zimo opened his eyes at this time, he would see an extremely shocking scene.

In the wooden barrel, the dark and viscous medicinal liquid has formed a huge vortex, and Su Zimo is sitting in the middle of the vortex.

Beside Su Zimo, a bull-shaped monster and a bear-shaped monster appeared vaguely, but the two pairs of monster eyes were so bright that they burst out with cold light. breath!

With the passage of time, the chill in the body gradually dissipated, and the endless essence continuously washed away the muscles and skin, and Su Zimo's realm was rapidly improving.

In a blink of an eye, the night passed.

Su Zimo opened his eyes and was surprised to find that the medicinal liquid in the wooden barrel had become transparent and clear as water.

Dieyue jumped down from the bluestone and said: "Tell you three more moves, the first one, the ground splitting palm. The angle of this palm can be changed as you like, you just need to remember the power-generating skills and understand the 'ground splitting'. The mood is enough.”

As she spoke, Dieyue's hand was slightly raised.

Su Zimo moved in his heart and suddenly closed his eyes.

A strange feeling came to mind, Su Zimo felt that he was not facing Dieyue, but a terrifying bear demon, raising its huge bear paw and crashing down!

Knowing that this is just an illusion and an illusion, but under the pressure of this momentum, Su Zimo's heart still retreats subconsciously.

Whoa!

Su Zimo forgot that he was still in the wooden barrel, and fell to the ground in a state of embarrassment, and the water in the wooden barrel spilled on the ground.

"The second style is to stick to the mountain. In this style, you need to exert all your strength. As long as you stick to it, the opponent will die, and you won't be able to react at all."

Dieyue rubbed her feet, the whole person leaned forward, and her body shook!

Su Zimo's pupils shrank for a while.

The air in front of Dieyue's body solidified instantly after this style of leaning against the mountain, as if it were real, and then suddenly spread out!

The strength of this post is so fast that even the air can't dodge!

"The third form, flesh and blood fossils."

After a short pause, Dieyue said: "This style is a defensive method in the Secret Tome of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness, and it is a kind of heart method. After practicing, flesh and blood can be instantly turned into rock, which is indestructible, reducing the impact damage received to lowest."

Su Zimo began to practice the Stone Bear Three Styles, and Dieyue had a cold face on the side. If something was wrong, she would 'point' it.

Every time Dieyue's "pointing", Su Zimo was miserable.

At the end of the day, there was no progress in Shixiong's three-style, Su Zimo was already scarred, and his body was blue and purple, sweating profusely, lying on the grass weakly panting.

Of course, Su Zimo knew in his heart that if there wasn't such a harsh stimulus, if he wanted to practice the Stone Bear 3-style, the time he would spend would increase several times!

At night, Dieyue prepared a bucket of medicinal liquid again and let Su Zimo go in to practice.

The amazing thing is that no matter how many injuries Su Zimo suffered during the day, after cultivating in the wooden barrel for one night, he would become alive again during the day, with no scars on his body.

For the next three months, Su Zimo slaughtered cows and ate meat during the day, practiced the Shixiong three-style, and then got into a wooden barrel at night, breathing and exhaling under the stimulation of the immersion in the medicinal liquid.

Su Zimo gritted his teeth and insisted on the hard work day and night.

In this almost cruel cultivation environment, Su Zimo's understanding of the body quenching scripture is getting deeper and deeper, and he has also cultivated to a small success in the palm of the earth and the back of the mountain.

Only the Flesh Fossil formula has little effect.

Su Zimo's skin, from the roughness of the initial practice of the three-style barren cow, began to gradually transition to smooth and delicate. This is a process of returning to the original.

It looks white as jade, but it is tougher than before!

Su Zimo's stature is getting stronger, flesh and blood is full, and his body has grown a lot. At seventeen years old, he has more than seven feet, which is similar to the phase of Die Yue.

Three months ago, when Su Zimo tried his skills in the Shen residence, he was slashed by a sword. Although he was not injured, the power contained in the sword still damaged his muscles and caused him to suffer for a long time.

But now, Su Zimo reckons that if he is stabbed in the body by a master of Acquired Perfection again, it will only be painless.

This body was forged by the Body Tempering Sutra, and after half a year of hard work, it was no longer weaker than ordinary swords.

Of course, the changes brought about by cultivating the body quenching chapter did not stop there.

The surge in strength, the increase in speed, and the sharpness in his eyes, all made Su Zimo reborn.

In the early morning of this day, Su Zimo walked out of the training ground, changed into a green shirt, and packed up properly before walking towards Su Mansion.

Counting the days, Su Xiaoning should be back today.

For this sister, whether it is Su Zimo, Su Hong or the rest of the Su family, they all love her very much, for fear that she will be wronged.

Not long after, Su Zimo arrived at Su Mansion.

"Second Young Master is back." The people from the Su Mansion greeted enthusiastically.

Su Zimo nodded with a smile.

After three months of recuperation, Uncle Zheng's injuries are no longer serious, but he looks much older.

"Brother isn't here?" Su Zimo asked seemingly casually.

Uncle Zheng smiled and said, "The business has been busy recently, and the eldest son has to look after him outside. I won't be able to come back today."

Su Zimo and Zheng Bo chatted in the hall while waiting for Su Xiaoning to come back.

an hour...

two hours...

Noon has passed.

The distance between Canglang City and Pingyang Town is not far, at most an hour's journey, but now, Su Xiaoning has not come back.

Su Zimo's face gradually darkened, and a cold light flickered in the depths of his eyes.

Uncle Zheng frowned, thought for a while, and said loudly, "Liu Yu!"

"Subordinates are here!"

Uncle Zheng said in a deep voice, "Quickly take someone to Canglang City to see if the young lady is leaving. If there is any news, come back and report immediately."

"No need."

Su Zimo waved his hand.

He knows his sister best.

Su Xiaoning has been very well-behaved since she was a child, and she will never do such a thing that worries her family.

Now, Su Xiaoning failed to return to Pingyang Town, so there is only one explanation, that is, there was an accident!

Su Zimo looked cold and stood up slowly.

Just this action, Zheng Bo and Liu Yu instantly felt a suffocating pressure!

Both of them have experienced the baptism of the battlefield, countless experiences of life and death, even in the face of immortals and iron-blooded army, they can keep their faces intact.

But now, in front of Su Zimo, the two of them have a feeling of trepidation!

"Second Young Master has really changed!" Zheng Bo and Liu Yu looked at each other, and this thought flashed through their minds at the same time.

"Report - Shen's family, Shen Nan, is asking to see you outside the door." A Su mansion guard shouted loudly.

Zheng Bo took a deep breath and said, "Let him in."

"Hehe, everyone, stay safe." After a while, Shen Nan in a white shirt walked over and said with a smile.

Su Zimo didn't say a word, his eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Shen Nan.

Shen Nan trembled in his heart.

For some reason, Shen Nan felt as if he was being targeted by a fierce tiger or a hungry wolf, and he would be torn to shreds in a blink of an eye!

"I'm just here to give a message. The Zhao and Li families have set up a table and a banquet, and I want to invite the two young masters of the Su family to the banquet." Shen Nan said with a guilty conscience.

Su Zimo came to Shen Nan and said calmly, "Big brother is not here, I'll go with you."

"Second Young Master, there is no good banquet, don't go!" Liu Yu stepped forward quickly and whispered in Su Zimo's ear.

Su Zimo's eyes widened.

Liu Yu lowered her head, and immediately gritted her teeth: "Second Young Master, I'll go with you!"

Su Xiaoning disappeared, but the Zhao family suddenly invited Su Hong and Su Zimo to the banquet. This was obviously a feast of Hongmen, and there was no life left, but he must not watch the second son go to danger alone.

"Liu Yu, Young Master Zhao has something to say first, and only invites the two Young Masters of the Su family. Others are not allowed to follow, otherwise..." Shen Nan didn't finish his words, but the threat was obvious.

"Let's lead the way." Su Zimo said lightly.

Shen Nan glared at Zheng Bo and Liu Yu provocatively, sneered again and again, and left the Shen residence swaggeringly.

"Mr. Zheng, what should I do? If I kill someone, I can't let the Second Young Master have an accident!" Liu Yu looked anxious.

"no!"

Uncle Zheng shook his head, frowning and said, "The other party is obviously well prepared. Today's Zhao family is no different from Longtan Tiger's Den. With the power in Su Mansion today, how can there be any strength to compete with it."

After a short pause, Uncle Zheng said solemnly, "You can transfer the black armored cavalry closest to this place, the sooner the better!"

"Then...is it too late?" Liu Yu asked.

"I don't know." Zheng Bo sighed softly: "Now I can only hope that the second young master and the young lady can hold on for a while, this is the only way."
