Chapter 175 Qi Refining Master
The hot midsummer is gradually passing, and God is still kind and has not added insult to injury in this war-torn year.
Severe drought has not occurred for several years, which allows the common people to barely have a hot meal without being completely desperate.
In August, the weather started to get colder, so Song Changming bought some more clothes for Song's mother to prevent her from getting cold in the changing seasons.
On this day, in the courtyard.
Song Changming finished his daily exercise session with his upper body bare and covered in sweat.
Suddenly he exerted force and punched continuously in the air.
Due to the ultra-high kinetic energy, explosive fist winds are generated in the air, buzzing like a blower.
After hitting more than ten punches in a row, Song Changming stopped. Feeling the terrifying power just released, Song Changming was quite satisfied.
"New characteristic talents, development progress is good."
The upper limit of his physical strength is constantly being raised due to these physical characteristics.
In daily life, as long as he practices physical training, he can continue to tap into the potential of these physical characteristics.
The harder you work, the faster you develop features.
Especially in the early stages of acquiring new physical characteristics, he could feel his body getting stronger almost every day, gradually evolving in an increasingly outrageous direction, and soaring all the way.
Compared with last month, he has almost stepped onto a small step in terms of strength and speed.
His reactions are faster, his coordination skills are stronger, his five senses are becoming sharper, and the toughness of his skin is constantly changing and strengthening.
This is not only the development of his three high-level physical characteristics, but also the result of the gradual condensation of his mental power.
In addition, Qi refining practice is also steadily accumulating.
Nowadays, Song Changming can be said to be in a period of rapid improvement in strength, and he enjoys the fulfilling sense of accomplishment brought by his continuous improvement in strength.
Just as Song Changming started to practice the sword technique, Song Pingan came back quickly from outside the door.
"Brother Song, I bought the red chalcedony you asked for, two pieces in total, and some other medicinal materials."
Song Ping'an said, taking down the large medicine box where all the medicinal materials were stored, and took out a medicine box from it.
"Well, thank you for your hard work." Song Changming nodded.
Hearing that the treasure appraisal meeting in Nagang Town had reopened and a lot of high-quality body-refining medicinal materials had been produced, he asked Song Ping'an to go there and be responsible for the procurement.
Opening the medicine box, there were two bright red and warm chalcedony blocks inside, with a clear and transparent texture.
Song Changming took out these two pieces of top-quality chalcedony worth thousands of silver, threw them into his mouth and swallowed them like jelly beans.
"Ah, here, Brother Song, these are two pieces of red chalcedony. Is it okay to eat them like this?" Song Pingan was startled and asked worriedly.
The quality of the red chalcedony is so high, and its potency is so powerful that even a warrior in the extreme realm would take more than a month to digest a piece of it.
Who can bear to eat two pieces in a row?
"It's okay." Song Changming waved his hands indifferently.
In the past, he took this red chalcedony as if he were taking strong medicine. He would take at most one piece a month and did not dare to be greedy for more.
But now, his physical body has reached a certain level, and a piece of the highest quality red chalcedony actually doesn't have that good effect on him.
This forced him to take an extra piece. Although the medicinal power was wasted, but when he only pursued cultivation efficiency and was not short of money, waste was not a consideration for him.
Of course, the prerequisite for swallowing the best medicine like this is that he has a strong physical body that can withstand the doubled power of the medicine.
Otherwise, this behavior is really no different from seeking death.
"By the way, on the way back just now, I met a warrior named Jiang Maocai and sent me a war invitation." Song Ping'an suddenly remembered and took out the war invitation and said.
"Are you coming?" Song Changming was a little surprised.
Ever since he fought seven games in a row last month, winning all seven games and earning seventy gold, those challengers have all stopped.
I thought that these warriors had recognized his strength and did not dare to challenge him again.
Unexpectedly, not long after August, the challenge has continued again.
"Just say that I want to retreat and refuse to answer." Song Changming refused directly.
He had just swallowed two pieces of top-quality chalcedony worth a combined twenty thousand gold. How could he waste the power of this medicine to compete with a warrior he had never heard of?
"Okay." Song Pingan nodded.
The next night, after dinner.
Song's mother went to rest early after dinner, leaving only Song Changming and Song Ping'an in the courtyard.
There is a chessboard on the stone table and a bottle of sake. After Song Changming made a move, Song Pingan scratched his head and scratched his head anxiously when he saw that the chess game was about to end.
"Think slowly, don't be in a hurry." Song Changming chuckled, poured wine for himself, and tasted it with ease.
Since Liu Dingsheng, his old chess friend, left, he taught Song Pingan how to play chess at home during his free time to relieve his boredom.
Seeing Song Pingan struggling under his chess skills, Song Changming finally understood why Liu Dingsheng liked to play chess with him.
I have to say, eating food is a real stress reliever.
"Brother Song, you are still good, I lost again." Song Pingan shook his head.
"Haha." Song Changming smiled, ready to torture him again before stopping.
At this time, Dahuang Dabai, who was also taking a nap after eating and drinking, suddenly raised his neck, raised his ears, and looked outside the courtyard wall.
"Huh?" Song Ping'an also noticed the abnormality of the two dogs, and his expression became condensed.
The two dogs' sense of smell and hearing are far superior to humans, comparable to two living radars. They obviously noticed something and were awakened directly.
Often in this situation, a blind thief comes to your door, or other uninvited guests visit late at night.
"Brother Song!" Song Pingan looked over.
Song Changming also noticed it and put down the wine glass in his hand, "Dabai."
The big white dog after swallowing the dragon ball was very smart. He didn't even need Song Changming to say anything, he already understood and went to the house to take out Song Changming's dragon pattern knife.
At this time, a person suddenly appeared on the courtyard wall.
This man wore a bamboo hat, dressed like a Jianghu man, and carried a long-handled sword on his back.
The blade is wide, straight and long, and is simply wrapped in a patchwork of cloth.
"It's you!" Song Pingan recognized this uninvited guest and immediately explained to Song Changming, "This person is the one who sent the war invitation yesterday."
Dahuang on the side was roaring in a low voice full of hostility, as if he was about to pounce and bite the opponent at any time.
To make Dahuang react so violently, he obviously felt malice and threat from the other party.
"Friend, climbing over the wall late at night is not something a gentleman would do." Song Changming frowned and said.
"I'm not a gentleman. If you don't fight, then I'll have to come to the door myself." Jiang Maocai said slowly. As he spoke, he took off the long knife wrapped in rags from his back and untied it bit by bit. Open the cloth block.
His voice was not loud, slightly deep, and he sounded quite young.
"It's not like you're trying to compete with me by forcing yourself in at night. Who sent you here?" Song Changming's voice gradually became colder.
Jiang Maocai laughed and said: "It's not stupid. I wanted to take advantage of the martial arts competition to kill you, but unfortunately you didn't give me a chance, and I didn't have much patience to wait, so I had to come tonight."
As he spoke, he had already untied the cloth, revealing a bloody long knife, which shone coldly under the moonlight.
Some strange energy fluctuations lingered around him, disturbing the night wind blowing around him.
Song Changming observed that his face became more serious.
The opponent's body is the energy fluctuation of mental power.
He has opened up the Underworld Sea and knows how to use spiritual power, which means that the opponent is likely to be a Qi-refining warrior!
Before, he thought that Qi-refining warriors were very rare in the world, but now one suddenly came to him.
Moreover, the other party's name was unknown. Song Changming had never heard of the name Jiang Maocai and did not know what his name was in the world.
Or maybe this Jiang Maocai is just a pseudonym.
This person's information is limited and his origins are mysterious, but this does not prevent him from making inferences.
"Are you sent by the Second Prince?" Song Changming asked aloud, but he was not in a hurry to take action. It would be best if he could ask clearly.
"." Jiang Maocai was speechless.
"This prince has a high position, so why is he so interested in me, a commoner in the world?" Song Changming continued to talk.
"You should know why you are so concerned." Jiang Maocai snorted coldly.
As soon as this statement came out, it was basically confirmed that the origin of this qi refining master was that the second prince sent him to deal with Song Changming.
"Since you can defeat Xue Boyan, it proves that you have reached the realm of Qi training. No need to say more, come on." Jiang Maocai stood on the courtyard wall with a knife in both hands, looking down at Song Changming, and said so.
He didn't mean to underestimate Song Changming at all.
No one in the world knew, but he knew very well how important the battle that Song Changming killed Xue Boyan was, so he would not take anything lightly when facing Song Changming.
