Chapter 142: Once again setting a historical record, a crisis in the dark
"I'm in the right place."
Shen Bailian felt the increase in his mental power. Although it was slow, it was not like usual. He could not feel the increase at all.
Compared with the other five universities, there must be similar facilities. This can also explain why the overall strength of the six universities has always been in the forefront.
Being able to walk to the fourth area is equivalent to practicing ordinary visualization, and it is a "visualization method" without any threshold.
"After a few days of upgrading and solidifying the Eight-in-One Great Sun Visualization Method, I can come here to experience the pleasure of rapid growth of mental power."
A thought suddenly flashed through Shen Bailian's mind.
Of course, the most important thing now is to test the limit of his own mental strength.
Shen Bailian took a deep breath, concentrated his attention, held his breath, and his eyes suddenly condensed. He resisted the mental pressure of the dragon copper pillar and walked forward step by step.
Step! Step! …
As the distance gradually shortened, Shen Bailian felt that he was in a deeper place in the deep sea. The pressure from all directions was constantly squeezing his consciousness.
Although there was no wind or waves, the pressure was getting heavier.
Fourteen meters, fifteen meters, sixteen meters...
Although Shen Bailian's steps became slower and slower, he became more and more firm and powerful. His forehead was slightly frowned, and his body did not show any signs of trembling.
"Teacher Duan, are you sure that the junior brother has not practiced the visualization method?" Xu Changqing glanced at Duan Wuya and said lightly, with a hint of doubt in his words.
The reason why Xu Changqing said this is that the mental strength of ordinary warriors can basically only survive the first level area under the state of natural growth.
In the first half of the second area, it is already difficult to continue to hold on. The best choice is to lie down or sit cross-legged to practice the visualization method.
In Xu Changqing's impression, the reason why Shen Bailian's mental power can break through level 10.0 is because of the help of the second-level Yunshen Yuan Fruit.
Although taking natural treasures can improve mental power quickly and conveniently, this method will lead to a weak foundation.
Only after the tempering of the visualization method can the mental power that was originally like cotton be forged into steel, and it also has the effect of improving mental power.
It was said before that the boy could persist in the middle of the second layer because of the reputation of "Newcomer King".
Every newcomer king is not a simple genius, otherwise he would not stand out from a group of Sun-level Dragon Gate martial arts students.
"No." Duan Wuya narrowed his eyes, looked at the boy who was still moving forward firmly, and shook his head: "And with his family background, it is impossible for him to practice visualization."
"Then Teacher Duan, you really picked up a treasure this time."
"I think so too." Duan Wuya's mouth corners curled up slightly, looking very satisfied.
After saying that, Xu Changqing didn't say anything else, but instead focused all his attention on the boy who was staggering forward.
In just less than ten seconds, Shen Bailian broke through to the third layer under the huge mental pressure.
Buzz~
Like a huge bell, Shen Bailian's mind was shaken violently as soon as he entered the third level area, and then it was like waves, continuously shaking.
If in the second area, he only had to withstand water pressure, then in the third level area, he not only had to withstand higher-intensity water pressure, but also had to withstand the impact of water hammer from the surrounding area.
The difficulty suddenly doubled.
"No wonder most martial arts students practice in the second area."
Shen Bailian's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. This strong mental pressure suddenly made his face slightly distorted, and the sea of mental power surged violently.
When his mind was shaking violently, he couldn't help but stop and stopped where he was.
Shen Bailian was ready to take a breath and make plans.
"Teacher Duan, where do you think he can go now?" Xu Changqing looked at Duan Wuya on the side with interest, wanting to hear Teacher Duan's opinion.
But he was disappointed.
"I can't guess the end of his potential now." Duan Wuya answered briefly and straightforwardly: "But no matter what, I've made a profit this time."
Many sophomores and juniors who were resting nearby, some of them had noticed this seemingly freshman boy very early.
However, many martial arts students can enter the second level area and practice visualization in the second level area, so they didn't pay too much attention.
However, Shen Bailian's move of entering the third level area and successfully stabilizing his body successfully attracted their attention.
"Who is he? He can actually stabilize in the third level area. How come I haven't seen him before?"
"There is no sophomore martial arts student who can stay in the third level area that I don't know. Where did this guy come from?"
"I feel that person seems a little familiar." A junior martial arts student frowned slightly when he saw the boy's back, and then immediately clicked on the smart bracelet and opened the collection column of the musical note software.
"Fuck, it's him?"
"Huh? Who is he?"
"Shen Bailian." The junior martial arts student rubbed his eyes to make sure he didn't see the wrong person because he was too tired:
"It's him, the newcomer king of this session, the new creator of the wilderness trial history record."
"But why would he come here at this time?" The junior martial arts student showed a look of confusion on his face, not understanding how the other party knew this place before the school really started.
"It seems that Dean Duan and the senior brother brought him here, look over there."
Some people had noticed Duan Wuya and Xu Changqing before, but they didn't expect that the two of them actually brought a freshman here to test the strength of mental strength.
"Freshman, walk to the third level area? Are you sure you didn't recognize the wrong person?" Some sophomores and juniors of the martial arts department didn't know much about the inside information because they had just returned from outside not long after the school started.
However.
This is also because many martial arts students are too lazy to understand. After all, if they have time to read gossip news, they might as well focus on improving their own strength.
"How could I recognize the wrong person? The video of the twelve talents fighting against Bailian has almost spread inside the university."
Some seniors who had watched the real-time recording of the battle in the Tiangang Academy Square naturally put out the video on the musical note as evidence.
"Is he really a freshman?"
"Is he so perverted? I'm only a sophomore, and I feel like I'm going to be beaten to death on the beach. No."
"Indeed, the newcomers are getting more and more perverted recently. I heard that Li Feiyu from the Golden Flame Lion Family has not yet entered the Transcendent Realm, but his blood concentration has already exceeded the 20% threshold..."
Many seniors were shocked when they saw this.
They all practiced here frequently, so they could naturally see that the reason why Shen Bailian stopped there was not because he couldn't hold on.
It was because the boy was adapting to the intensity of the mental oppression in the third level area. Once he adapted to the intensity of the third level, he could continue to move forward for a stage.
"Fuck, Shen Bailian has already worshipped Teacher Duan as his master."
"What? Is this true?"
"..."
One wave has not yet subsided, another wave has risen.
In an instant.
The group of sophomores and juniors of the martial arts department instantly boiled up, and they all began to discuss in a low voice.
The degree of discussion instantly exceeded the matter of Shen Bailian reaching the third level of the Jiaolong Copper Pillar.
It was just because this incident was so rare. For so many years, it was not that no one wanted to worship Duan Wuya as a teacher, but no one succeeded.
However.
The next moment.
"He moved! Shen Bailian continued to move forward."
"I want to see how far the genius who can worship Teacher Duan can advance to in the third level area."
"Then how many meters do you think he can reach?" Someone asked half-jokingly.
"Hehe~, if I had this vision, I would have been a strong man in the Sea-breaking Realm."
The spiritual realm covered by the dragon copper pillar is mainly supported by the dragon's might, so it is difficult to rely on mental power to perceive the physical state of the martial arts students inside.
"Hu~ Breath~"
"It should be almost there."
Shen Bailian felt that he had adapted to the mental oppression in the front part of the third level area. He took a deep breath, his eyes suddenly condensed, and a burst of brilliant light burst out.
Kaka~
His muscles and bones rang together, and he took steps, step by step, towards the direction of the dragon copper pillar.
Above Shen Bailian, there was already a rescue drone following him, ready to rescue at any time.
Twenty-one meters.
Twenty-two meters...
"Ah~"
As the distance to the Jiaolong Copper Pillar got closer and closer, Shen Bailian had already reached the twenty-fourth meter. The strong mental pressure caused the sea of mental power to surge violently.
While surging violently, the sea of mental power also shrank under the mental pressure. At the same time, the density and intensity of mental power were slowly increasing.
It was only one meter away from the middle of the third area.
He took another step forward, only the last 0.5 meters.
However, Shen Bailian's raised foot could not fall down. This short 0.5 meters was like a natural moat, blocking his steps forward.
"There has never been a newborn who can enter the third level area for the first time before practicing the visualization method." Duan Wuya looked at the back and sighed in his heart:
"The willpower is not ordinary strong."
Although it is said that as the mental power increases, the endurance will also be improved, but the two are not a linear relationship with a positive proportional increase.
Mental power, on the other hand, has a linear relationship with perception, which is proportional to the increase in mental power. When mental power is increased, perception will be amplified in the same proportion, especially vision, touch, and other five senses.
Therefore, when it comes to perceiving pain, warriors will have a more acute sense than ordinary people.
Cultivation is a very painful thing. For example, the life-establishing realm and the mortal-transforming realm use the energy of heaven and earth to temper the body and promote cell evolution.
This process involves the rapid renewal of cells, and pain is inevitable.
The advantage of the human race lies in its strong endurance and adaptability. The former is commonly known as willpower.
Duan Wuya had sensed Shen Bailian's mental power level before. He had only broken through level 10.0 and had just stabilized not long ago.
Therefore, Shen Bailian relied mostly on his own willpower, not mental power, to support himself until now.
"Can you step over?"
This time, all the martial arts students focused their attention on the young man. After one minute of communication, everyone in the field knew the identity of the freshman.
"Junior brother, come on!" Suddenly, a martial arts student saw this situation and promptly provided the support he could.
All of a sudden.
"Junior brother, hold on, there is only one last step left!"
"Come on, take a step forward, and you will leave a mark in the history of the school..."
"Come on, little junior brother..."
"..."
Throughout Tianhui Plaza, cheers for Shen Bailian rang out one after another, and many people turned on their smart bracelets, preparing to record this scene that would leave a mark in the history of Tiangang Academy.
"ah!!!"
Shen Bailian's face twitched violently, his expression began to distort, and beads of sweat overflowed from his pores on his forehead.
It seemed as if if he took another step forward, the ocean of spiritual power would completely collapse.
But Shen Bailian knew that this was just his illusion, because not only could he hear the shouts of the seniors, but Duan Wuya also did not stop him.
"Get down here, ah!!!"
Shen Bailian closed his eyes, roaring crazily in his heart, the muscles and bones under his face twitching violently, and the sound of crackling bones came from inside his body.
boom!
As heavy as Mount Tai, with a slight roar, Shen Bailian finally took the last step.
"Breathe~breathe~"
His chest rose and fell violently, breathing in fresh air. His back was already soaked with sweat. After regaining some strength, he brought his other leg together.
Twenty-five meters.
The middle of the third area.
The newcomer king has set a new historical record!
"Damn it, witness history, brothers, we made a lot of money today. We are lucky enough to be witnesses of a new record today."
"Brothers and sisters who recorded the video, please remember to pass it on to your grade group when you go back."
"Okay, okay." The martial arts student who had recorded the video in advance showed a happy smile when he saw this situation.
Human nature is diverse. Even though Daxia’s compulsory education is well set up, this still does not prevent some people from cheering for it and some from being unhappy about it.
"Tch, isn't it just a small middle section of the third area? No one can do the same thing." A sophomore martial arts student muttered to himself when he saw this in the crowd.
certainly.
He was not stupid. He knew that he could not say this openly at this time, so he only dared to mutter in his heart.
Tian Ming stood quietly at a high place and had a panoramic view of the martial arts students below who were cheering for Shen Bailian to set a new historical record.
The cheers that came from his ears fell on his ears, like sharp thorns piercing his old scars, making his breathing quicken slightly.
"As expected, it is indeed like this...Another unfair treatment, another guy who used the back door."
Tian Ming's dark eyes swept over the martial arts students, with no expression on his face.
He clenched his fist tightly, causing the slightly sharp nails to pierce into the palm of his hand, causing bursts of heartbreaking pain, but this was nothing compared to the sharp pain of being poked into the scar.
"I, I...I will definitely expose your hypocritical face, but now is not the time."
Tian Ming's eyes scanned the young man's back, a hint of ridicule flashed at the corner of his mouth, and then he turned around indifferently and walked towards the outside of Tianhui Square.
He knew that now was not the time. This was the time when Shen Bailian's fame and prestige were at their peak.
Not only would that video not create much of a stir, it would also be dealt with quickly.
Therefore, Tian Ming knew that he had to find a suitable time period, and he must not let this kind of backdoor guy become the 45th senior brother.
That is an absolute disgrace!
…
"You can go back." Duan Wuya looked at the young man nervously and said through the void: "If you go any further, not only will there be no benefit, but you may also cause mental damage."
"Remember to step back slowly, don't rush."
"yes."
Shen Bailian nodded, and without any hesitation, he started to retreat from the middle of the third area step by step.
One minute later~
Shen Bailian successfully returned to the first area from the middle of the third area, and his breath and expression gradually returned to calm.
After leaving the area covered by the dragon copper pillar, he did not rush back to Duan Wuya's side. Instead, he slowly came to the front of a group of senior students.
"Thank you all seniors and sisters."
Shen Bailian looked at the hundreds of seniors sincerely, cupped his fists and bowed slightly.
He had never thought that the atmosphere of Tiangang Academy would be so good. He thought that the best situation would be that these people would just be like a bunch of people.
Shen Bailian never expected that these strangers would cheer him on and encourage him at critical moments.
"Junior Brother Shen, where are you from? Have you ever practiced contemplation? It's the first time you go to the Dragon Bronze Pillar, and you can actually walk to the middle of the third area."
"Yes, you are putting us seniors and seniors to shame."
"Junior Brother Shen, are you interested in joining our club? There are various benefits and benefits, don't miss it..."
In just a short moment, the style of painting changed suddenly. Some sophomore and junior martial arts students wanted to add contact information to Shen Bailian, while others wanted to recruit him into the club, and they all showed great enthusiasm... …
All of a sudden.
Shen Bailian was extremely busy, replying to the senior students' questions one by one, but there were too many people and he couldn't finish the reply in a short while.
"Don't disturb my junior brother, maybe he still has something to do." A junior senior stood up and said
But no one paid attention to him at all, because all the martial arts students here saw Shen Bailian's potential and wanted to get his contact information in advance to form a good relationship.
This situation made Shen Bailian feel a little bit regretful about being so close.
You should choose to express your gratitude from a distance.
One minute later.
"Okay, don't disturb him." At some point, Xu Changqing came over, looked at the group of sophomore and junior martial arts students, and said with a smile:
"After the opening ceremony, aren't there going to be a freshman banquet? Then you can have a detailed chat with Junior Brother Shen."
In an instant, everyone fell silent when they heard this voice. It was obvious that Xu Changqing's prestige among these martial arts students was very high.
"Huh~"
"Thank you, Senior Brother Xu." Shen Bailian gave Xu Changqing a grateful look.
"Okay, since senior brother has said so, let's not waste junior brother's time."
"Senior Brother." A junior martial arts student stood up and humbly asked for advice: "Regarding some questions about the Star Sword Technique, do you have time this afternoon?"
"Yes." Xu Changqing nodded, looked at the martial arts students, and said with a smile: "It's still the same old rules. This afternoon, at the same place, if you have any questions about cultivation, you can come and ask me."
"Thank you, senior brother!" "Thank you, senior brother!"
"..."
In an instant, something happened that Shen Bailian would remember for the rest of his life. Hundreds of warriors who had reached the realm of transformation, all clasped their fists and bowed respectfully to the lean young man with a figure as tall as a pine tree and a handsome face. .
"Well, go practice quickly." Xu Changqing seemed to have been accustomed to this.
In an instant, all the sophomore and junior martial arts students who were surrounding them dispersed one after another. Those who should go back went back, and those who should go to practice went to practice.
"Is this Senior Brother?"
Shen Bailian watched this scene quietly, and a thought suddenly flashed in his heart.
As the saying goes, one's deeds do not reflect one's heart, but he could not feel any trace of hypocrisy from these sophomores and juniors.
This is a bit surprising.
Shen Bailian had heard Xu Changqing's name from Duan Wuya's mouth before, but no matter how much he heard it, he was still far from the shock of seeing the actual scene here.
"Let's go." Xu Changqing walked in front and said softly: "You performed very well today and once again set a record in Tiangang Academy."
"Another record of Tiangang Academy?" Shen Bailian frowned slightly and said calmly: "Is it difficult to break into the third area?"
"It's not difficult. What's difficult is that you can advance to the middle of the third area without practicing contemplation, and it's your first time entering the realm of the Dragon Copper Pillar."
"I just advanced to the front of the third area. At about the 21st meter, I couldn't hold on any longer."
"Then Senior Brother Xu, which area can you break into now?" Shen Bailian asked doubtfully.
"Let me think about it." Xu Changqing thought for a moment: "Now I should be able to reach the highest position of 39.9 meters. If I want to break through to the fifth section, I should wait until I break through the sea level."
39.9 meters?
Isn't this the fourth area?
Shen Bailian felt that he might be able to reach that position in less than a year.
"Where's the teacher?"
"We should be able to break into the middle of the fifth level area." Xu Changqing thought for a moment and got the answer.
"Ah?" When Shen Bailian heard this, he was slightly stunned and said in surprise: "Can't even Teacher Duan get through safely?"
Duan Wuya is a strong man at the top of the Piercing Sea Realm, and he also has a title. Such a strong man cannot break through the entire area of the Dragon Bronze Pillar.
This was a bit beyond Shen Bailian's expectation.
"Yeah." Xu Changqing said with a smile: "When you get to the third level area, you should feel the difference from the first two levels."
"Yeah." Shen Bailian nodded.
The two levels in front of the Dragon Copper Pillar are as if they are simply in the deep sea, with only the influence of water pressure from all directions.
The amount of water pressure depends on the area.
But in the third level area, in addition to water pressure, there are also various undercurrents and water hammers. The pressure suddenly doubles, so the forward speed becomes slower and slower.
"When you reach the fourth level area, under the influence of the true dragon bloodline in the dragon's body, you will have the influence of dragon power, and when you reach the fifth level area, you will have the emptiness of dragon flames to temper your mental power."
"Hiss~"
Shen Bailian took a breath of cold air, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and he asked strangely: "Why don't you draw out that trace of true dragon blood? Aren't you afraid of being robbed?"
After all, that is the true dragon bloodline. Although there is only a trace, this trace, plus the blood essence of other ferocious beasts, is enough to create a powerful bloodline warrior.
There shouldn’t be anyone who doesn’t feel jealous, right?
No way?
Even if it didn't, wouldn't there be any martial arts students who want to integrate it into their own blood and become dragon-blooded warriors?
Shen Bailian was sure that some martial arts students had thought about such a thing.
I have to say that Li Feiyu was really handsome when he transformed.
Especially after Li Feiyu transforms, not only will his height expand to more than three meters, but the golden hair wrapped around his body is like golden flames, plus...
"Robbed?" Xu Changqing heard this, shook his head helplessly and smiled, his face full of confidence, and said: "Junior Brother Shen, don't forget that Tiangang Academy is not only a martial arts university, but also a powerful war fortress."
"Where you are now is Daxia, a unified country with strict legal constraints. There is a Zhoutian Star Array on the sky. Who can come in to rob?"
"Other academies also have facilities similar to the Jiaolong Copper Pillar. Although they are not as convenient as the Tiangang Academy, as for the Martial Hall, they also have to save face."
"So, your worries are unnecessary."
"But~" As he said, Xu Changqing's mouth corners slightly raised an arc, and his right hand pointed at the Jiaolong Copper Pillar, smiling and said:
"If you can activate the trace of true dragon blood in the Jiaolong body, according to the school rules of Tiangang Academy, you can give that trace of true dragon blood to you free of charge."
"Really?"
Shen Bailian's pupils shrank suddenly, and he looked at Xu Changqing as if to verify.
"Of course." Xu Changqing smiled slightly: "How about it, it's better to take action than to be moved, or you can give it a try, Junior Brother Shen."
"Okay, okay, stop teasing him." Unknowingly, the two of them had already walked to Duan Wuya's side. Duan Wuya glanced at Shen Bailian, who really had an idea, and smiled helplessly:
"It's not that no one has tried to activate that trace of true dragon blood in the past, but without exception, they all failed, including the five owners of the manifest holy body."
"Of course, there is also a possibility that the trace of true dragon blood has completely lost its activity due to the death of the dragon, so no one can activate it, although the probability is very small."
"So that's it."
Shen Bailian stared at the dragon copper pillar and nodded.
To be honest, he was really a little moved. Duan Wuya thought he was a hidden holy body, but only he knew the truth. He relied on his own original talent.
Maybe when a certain skill is upgraded to a certain stage, there will be a chance to activate that trace of true dragon blood.
As for the inactivation of the true dragon blood?
Shen Bailian didn't believe it.
"Let's go, let's go back first." Duan Wuya said, and walked out of Tianhui Square.
Unconsciously, it has been almost a month. Can I ask for a monthly ticket for June 1st?
