Chapter 209: Breakthrough in strength, further progress! That night. "a little cold!" Jiang Ning finished his training and waited until his body temperature dropped. He felt the autumn breeze and couldn't help but tighten his clothes. He could clearly feel that the temperature tonight was lower than last night. The perceived temperature was six or seven degrees lower than last night. The temperature today must be below ten degrees. But in the past two days, the weather seemed to be still in midsummer, with temperatures as high as 40 degrees Celsius, which was extremely hot. In less than two days. The temperature dropped sharply from around 40 degrees to less than 10 degrees. Accompanied by the cool autumn breeze, even with Jiang Ning's physique, he could not withstand the temperature change with just thin clothes.

But the autumn wind still made him feel a little cold. This slightly cold feeling is not comfortable. inside the house. Candlelight flickers. Xie Xiaojiu looked outside the house, a thoughtful look on his face. Woohoo—— The autumn wind blew outside the window and poured into the house through the narrow window gaps. The blowing of the autumn wind made bumps appear on her arms. At this moment, the night is already deep. The moonlight outside the house shines through the narrow gap in the window, leaving only a very narrow shadow inside the house. After a while. creak- Xie Xiaojiu opened the window. The autumn wind blowing in the yard blew on her body, and suddenly her loose skirt stuck to her body. Revealing her beautiful girlish figure. The wind seemed to have a shape at this moment. "grown ups!" When Xie Xiaojiu looked up, he saw Jiang Ning lying on the beam under the eaves. "What? Aren't you asleep yet?" Jiang Ning turned his head and looked down, and instantly saw a beautiful spring scene. "I can't sleep!" Xie Xiaojiu shook his head.

Then she continued, "Sir, please come to my room and sleep! It's cold, and it's not suitable to stay outside overnight." "Aren't you afraid?" Jiang Ning smiled when he heard that. "Don't be afraid!" Xie Xiaojiu shook his head. "Do you trust me so much?" Jiang Ning jumped down from the beam. Xie Xiaojiu looked at Jiang Ning seriously: "I believe in your character." Jiang Ning smiled again. "In that case, I will not refuse it!" As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ning raised his leg, stepped over the threshold, and walked into Xie Xiaojiu's room. As Jiang Ning stepped into Xie Xiaojiu's room, he immediately felt that the temperature in the room had risen by several degrees. He instantly realized that the wood used to build this house was not ordinary. It is made of expensive wood that keeps warm in winter and cool in summer. at the same time. Xie Xiaojiu suddenly felt a little nervous. This was the first time she was in the same room with another man in the dead of night. Moreover, she was wearing such thin clothes, only a home skirt. Although she usually dresses like this in her own small yard, she enjoys the rare feeling of comfort. But it's completely different now. Being alone with a man and a woman in the same room made her particularly nervous. Even scenes kept appearing in my mind. Some of the scenes even made her face turn red and her body feel hot. After a while. creak- Xie Xiaojiu pushed the door of the room and slowly closed it. Turning around, she saw Jiang Ning already sitting on a chair and pouring herself a cup of herbal tea. "Sir," Xie Xiaojiu's voice trembled a little. "What's wrong?" Jiang Ning picked up the tea and drank it all, then asked. Xie Xiaojiu calmed himself down and said, "My lord, my bed is a little small, and I might make you feel wronged later." Jiang Ning smiled when he heard this: "I am staying at your house, how can I have the nerve to occupy your bed."

After saying that, Jiang Ning stood up, moved the stool beside the table and simply put it together. "I'll just sleep here later!" Looking at this scene, Xie Xiaojiu was stunned for a moment. She found that Jiang Ning had misunderstood what she meant. She originally wanted the two of them to squeeze together and sleep on one bed. Afterwards, Xie Xiaojiu opened his mouth, but he no longer had the courage to say those words. "Don't just stand there!" Jiang Ning said, "It's late, time to go to bed!" "Okay!" Xie Xiaojiu was silent for a moment, then nodded in response. Coming to his bed, Xie Xiaojiu kicked off his slippers and turned to look at Jiang Ning. Jiang Ning was seen lying on the bed made of stools with his clothes on and his eyes closed. She then stretched her legs under the covers. next moment. Xie Xiaojiu spoke again: "Sir!" "What's wrong?" Jiang Ning spoke again. Xie Xiaojiu asked: "Does the master have mysophobia?" "I was born a commoner, so there's no way I would have mysophobia," Jiang Ning said. Hearing Jiang Ning's words. Xie Xiaojiu immediately got up from the bed, picked up the quilt on his bed and walked towards Jiang Ning. "Sir, the temperature is still dropping tonight. This quilt is quite thick. Cover it with it." While talking, she came to Jiang Ning's side. "Master, lie down. I'll cover you up!" Hearing what Xie Xiaojiu said, Jiang Ning nodded with interest, then lay down. Xie Xiaojiu then covered Jiang Ning with the quilt in his hands. After tidying it up, she asked nervously, "Sir, is there any peculiar smell on my quilt?" "No!" Jiang Ning lowered his head and smelled it. Suddenly, a scent like musk and orchid came from his shoulders, and then he spoke. After hearing Jiang Ning's direct answer, Xie Xiaojiu's heart finally settled down. Subsequently. She picked up a quilt from the closet and spread it flat on her bed.

They both fell asleep quickly. In the blink of an eye. Another three days passed. During these three days, Jiang Ning worked hard, refining the Dragon and Tiger Tendon-Refining Pill day and night. With the support of this precious elixir, his strength is also improving rapidly. "According to records, the human body's tendons are divided into four levels: ox, tiger, dragon, and dragon." "The tendons of the body have reached the level of bull tendons. When entering the seventh level of martial arts, the explosive power can be increased by 30%." "Reaching the tiger tendon can double the explosive power." "Once you reach the level of Jiao Jin, you can increase your explosive power by two times." "Reaching the dragon tendons can increase the explosive power fivefold." Jiang Ning then swung his arm, pulling at the major tendons in his body and mobilizing the strength throughout his body. Snapped-- The air suddenly exploded. As he swung his finger, he saw white mist flowing through his fingers even in the dark night. "This explosive power should be only one step away from the dragon tendon!" Jiang Ning said in secret. He couldn't help but feel happy. In just a few days, his strength improved by leaps and bounds, from Niujin to one step away from Jiaojin. These are the effects brought to him by the Dragon and Tiger Tempering Tendon Pill. "This is probably the power of money!" Jiang Ning felt inexplicably emotional. After his personal experience with the Dragon and Tiger Tempering Tendon Pill, he understood an important point. In this world, the so-called difficulty of martial arts is only for the poor and for martial artists in small places. A few tens of thousands of taels of silver could bring him this kind of improvement. Although it seems to consume a lot of wealth, it is only for him. Daxia has a history of nearly a thousand years. There are countless century-old families. The thousand-year-old aristocratic family is not just a legend. There are also sects with thousands of years of history. For these forces, tens of thousands of taels of silver are just dozens of taels of gold, perhaps not even a drop in the ocean for them.

The inheritors of this kind of power must have enjoyed extremely luxurious resources since childhood. “No wonder there is an army of seventh and eighth rank warriors in Daxia!” After these few days, he completely understood the role of wealth. Not to mention the more profound aspects of martial arts. At least at the level of flesh and bones, martial arts resources have a huge impact. As long as there are enough resources, perhaps these steps will not be difficult. "Talent and bones can be changed later." "So what does this mean?" Jiang Ning had some enlightenment in his mind. [Source Energy]: He glanced at his own panel. "When I wake up tomorrow, my energy should be able to break through the 700 mark, right?" "The energy points that have broken through the 700 mark are enough for my Wind and Thunder Archery to complete the second and third breakthroughs." "This way, even if Liu Linmen comes to my house, I should be able to fight back!" Jiang Ning whispered in his heart. Over the past three days, with the Bamboo Gang secretly watching him, he was well aware of the movements of the Huangtian Sect. After the miraculous spread of the Huangtian Sect, their followers spread it even more crazily. In just a few days, 30% of the people in the East City District of the outer city became believers of the Huangtian Sect. Especially yesterday, someone from the Huangtian Sect spread a message that as long as the believers of the Huangtian Sect here are devout enough. At the beginning of next spring, the God of Heaven will come to Luoshui County to pray for rain for the people of Luoshui County, praying for a spring rain to ensure that the spring sowing will be successful. This news further ignited the people's enthusiasm. At the same time, Jiang Ning also basically grasped Liu Linmen's condition. After several days of treatment, Liu Linmen's eye injury has healed, and he also visited Ye Qiu during the day today. This action instantly made Jiang Ning think of a possibility. That was just as Liu Linmen had predicted in his mind before, he still didn't know who attacked him that night. Visiting Ye Qiu at home might be to open his third eye to spy on Ye Qiu. "Tomorrow, I'll see if my guess is right by looking at his movements again!" Jiang Ning whispered in his heart. At this time, as his strength increased, he no longer had the worries he had in the previous few days. The improvement in his strength gave him more confidence.

Compared to that night, his strength has improved greatly, at least doubled. Not only did the Wind and Thunder Archery complete its first breakthrough, but he also mastered the power of Wind and Thunder. Moreover, the level of tendon refining is only one step away from the dragon tendon. Thanks to his strong and tough tendons, he can now unleash nearly twice as much explosive power as before. But when he attacked Liu Linmen that night, he was only at the level of bull tendon and could only increase his explosive power by 30%. Moreover, in the past few days, his swordsmanship has once again broken through the limit, and the sword force has been able to break through. Using the sword force can draw on the power of heaven and earth. The improvement of these three gave him a certain amount of confidence. His current strength cannot be assessed by simple martial arts levels. After all, he now has mastered internal energy, which can only be mastered by those in the fifth level of internal strength. With all these factors combined, Jiang Ning could fight against a fifth-grade inner strong realm expert, but at least he was not afraid of a sixth-grade expert. With the right time and place, it is possible that the fifth level could be tried. After a while. Jiang Ning pushed open the door and stepped into Xie Xiaojiu's room. "Sir!" Xie Xiaojiu sat on the bed, with the quilt only covering her thighs. She put down the sword manual in her hand and greeted Jiang Ning. "No need to wait for me!" Jiang Ning said to Xie Xiaojiu. Xie Xiaojiu gave a faint smile. He stretched his legs out from under the quilt and walked out of bed wearing cotton shoes. The temperature dropped further in the past few days. Even when Xie Xiaojiu was at home at night, she no longer wore a thin skirt. Instead, she wore a white mink dress. The inside and outside of the dress were covered with soft white mink fur. The thick mink skirt also blocked some of the scenery, revealing only a small part of the round calf, thin shoulders and snow-white arms. The most beautiful scenery was blocked by the thick long skirt, which made Jiang Ning feel a little regretful that he could not appreciate the beauty of the world. Come to the table. Xie Xiaojiu picked up the teapot and poured water into the teacup. Gurgling gurgling—— The boiling hot tea poured into the teacup from the spout of the kettle, and a wisp of mist rose. "My lord, it's cold outside, drink a cup of hot tea to warm your body before going to sleep!" "That's thoughtful!" Jiang Ning smiled and took a sip of hot tea.

The teapot had been there for a while and the water temperature was obviously not very high. Jiang Ning tested the water temperature lightly, then drank it all in a few gulps. As the hot tea entered my stomach, the slight chill in my body was instantly dispelled. Although the temperature has not dropped as drastically in the past few days, it is still dropping. The temperature is almost the same as the winter in the south in my previous life. Because it is close to the Luo River, the moisture is serious and he felt the dampness and coldness penetrating into his bones again. Even though he is in extraordinary physical condition now, Jiang Ning still feels that this weather is uncomfortable. "Go to sleep! Don't worry about me!" Jiang Ning looked at Xie Xiaojiu who was standing in front of him and urged him. "My Lord, it's very cold today." Xie Xiaojiu's heart suddenly started pounding. She hesitated and spoke slowly, "How about... how about we go to bed?" Xie Xiaojiu repeated the words he said a few days ago. "I'll sleep on the bed, where will you sleep?" Jiang Ning smiled, then patted the quilt placed beside him and continued, "Don't worry! With the quilt you gave me, I won't be cold! I'm a seventh-rank martial artist!" Looking at Jiang Ning, Xie Xiaojiu opened his mouth, and suddenly the anger in his chest escaped. "My Lord, I'm going to sleep first!" She quickly reached her bed and got into bed. Jiang Ning looked at her back, smiled and shook his head. immediately. Jiang Ning pieced together a place barely big enough for him to sleep, spread out the quilt to cover himself, and quickly fell asleep. The next day. "Master, wake up!" Jiang Ning opened his eyes and saw Xie Xiaojiu washing his face with something. Wet by the clean water, the hair around her ears and forehead stuck together. From Jiang Ning's perspective, he could clearly see the fine hairs on the girl's face. Jiang Ning immediately sat on a wooden stool to calm his body movements. At the age of full blood and vigor, every morning is always so uncomfortable. Especially when he woke up and saw the beautiful sight of Xie Xiaojiu, Jiang Ning needed some time to suppress the abnormal movements of his body. [Name]: Jiangning [Source Energy]: 【skill】: Reading and spelling (break the limit of 517/4000 three times) (Features: photographic memory, extraordinary five senses, quick thinking) Five Animals Fist (Break the limit 568/2000 at a time) (Feature: Five internal organs store essence) Wood Splitting Knife Skills+ (break the limit 6000/6000 for the fifth time) (Features: learning by analogy, the knife is as fast as the wind, the knife is wielded like a god, the man and the knife are one, and the knife is born with a natural knives ability) Inner Dan Health Preservation Exercise (Minor Achievement 493/5000) Vajra Indestructible Body (Minor Achievement 453/5000) Water + (break the limit 6000/6000 for the fifth time) (Features: underwater breathing, water control, affinity with water spirits, cloud and rain control, water spirit body) Wind and Thunder Archery (1/2000 limit at a time) (Feature: Breath of Wind and Thunder) Water and Fire True Strength (Minor 45/500) When his eyes fell on the panel, Jiang Ning felt secretly excited.

The energy points exceeded 700 points, which meant he had more choices. Whether to choose to break the limit by chopping wood with a knife or using water, or to choose the second or third limit breaking by using wind and thunder archery, all depends on his thought. (End of this chapter)
