Chapter 4 4. A world that is safe and peaceful enough to lie down rarely belongs to travelers

If enough people stay in the [Taixu Realm] forever, the bubble will grow bigger and bigger, and eventually it will explode with a "pop" sound.

The bubbles will disappear, but at the same time the contents will be released. The released creatures generally do not have sufficient intelligence and pose a huge threat to the environment and humans.

The creatures that emerged from the bubbles were collectively called [wild beasts].

[Wild Beasts] possess strength far beyond that of ordinary species, and their bodies are incredibly strong. Some of them cannot even be effectively harmed by ordinary firepower.

But at that time, people were still able to rely on powerful firepower and an endless production line to suppress the wild beasts in a certain area and use them for research.

However, as more and more [Taixu Realm] appeared, more and more humans were swept into [Taixu Realm].

As the number of times [Taixu Realm] was breached increased, people began to discover that after [Taixu Realm] was broken, the things released were far more than just the life existing in it.

Some things that are tangible and material, tangible and intangible, and even intangible and intangible were all released.

Things that shouldn't exist in this world.

Like some strange objects, invasive species, and...

……disease!
There are all kinds of strange and even unreasonable diseases. You will be infected just by knowing their existence. As long as you read the name of the disease accurately, the plague will be centered on yourself and infect everyone and everything within a radius of 100 miles.

There are even living diseases that can infect or even transfer through their own consciousness, and no matter whether it is organic or inorganic matter, it cannot escape.

At the same time, under the attack of the wild beasts, humans used nuclear weapons to bomb several times, but the wild beasts' defense was too strong, and only a large number of people died in the core area of ​​the nuclear bomb attack range.

However, more wild beasts are adapting to the radiation and starting to evolve. Some special species have even evolved into intelligent beings.

Humanity began to lose ground on all fronts, with the population dropping to 20 billion at one point, a dangerous situation where it was almost impossible to maintain industrialization.

When humanity was about to be destroyed, the first person who completely escaped from the [Taixu Realm] appeared.

Not only did he come out of the [Taixu Realm] alive, but he also brought out magical powers from it.

With the appearance of the first powerful human, people gradually came out alive from the [Taixu Realm] and brought their power out of it.

Those forces spread and grew stronger among human beings.

Humankind then accumulated strength, consolidated its defenses, and eventually launched a full-scale counterattack a hundred years later. Although they were not able to completely retake the land, they did recover 80% of the land that they had once set foot on.

Until now, the war between humans, wild beasts and [Taixu Realm] has not ended and has been in a state of stalemate.

Humans have the upper hand on land, but the ocean is still the territory of wild beasts.

Although an all-out war did not break out, there were countless frictions. Wild beasts attacked cities, towns, or humans slaughtered wild beasts' nests. These things happened every day.

After simply flipping through the history textbook, Mo Hao couldn't help but pinch his nose. "I know that it's rare for a time traveler to live in a safe and peaceful world where they can lie down."

The idea that this world is unsafe has been thoroughly proven.

"It seems like I have to study hard now. If I fail the exam, my life will be in big trouble."

Nowadays, almost every high school student in every country and region in the world, in addition to receiving cultural education, will practice martial arts to develop human potential.

The power brought out from the [Taixu Realm] by the first strong man is martial arts, and it is also the foundation of all power.

Exercise qi and blood, develop potential, and ultimately break the limits of the human body.

Only when the human body's potential is fully developed, will it be qualified to bear and accept other forces brought out from the [Taixu Realm] by the strong.

The military subject of the college entrance examination occupies a very important proportion, and the top universities have strict requirements for the scores of the military subject. Mo Hao found two booklets in his schoolbag, which contained text and pictures, and even a CD.

The two booklets are respectively titled: "Barbarian Bull Strength" and "Running Horse Fist".

These are the two most widely circulated methods of exercising Qi and blood. Mo Hao even looked through the class group in the chat software on his phone. Sure enough, there were videos of more than fifteen different people practicing boxing in the group file.

Mo Hao carefully read the booklet in his hand, memorized the contents, and then opened the video and watched it silently.

This process took several hours. During this time, Mo Hao took some time to clean up the kitchen. He cleaned out the internal organs of the fish and chicken and threw them directly into the refrigerator.

He can cook, but only some simple and quick home-cooked stir-fries, which do not include fish and chicken.

I bought it just to test whether the passive effect of [Soul Furnace] is effective, not to cook for myself.

After watching every video carefully, several hours had passed. Mo Hao lowered his head, thinking while gesturing according to the explanations in the video.

Then he raised his head with a strange look on his face, "It feels like it's very simple."

Is it an illusion?

Mo Hao didn't know either, so he chose to give it a try.

After moving the tables and chairs in the living room to create an open space, Mo Hao directly began to practice the Bull Strength. His movements were not fast, and could even be said to be slow.

But in this slow posture, his strength reached the tops of his limbs, and his internal body temperature began to gradually rise.

Soon, a trace of warm current began to appear in the body. This is a sign that the exercise is effective and the Qi and blood are gradually becoming stronger.

"So fast?"

Mo Hao was shocked by the progress of the Bull Power. It was effective the first time. This method was so efficient that it was scary.

But he soon discovered a problem, that is, the heat flow generated in his body seemed to be somewhat similar to the heat flow he absorbed when killing fish and chickens.

After some searching online, I found that it is not uncommon to feel a heat flow when practicing for the first time, but there are two prerequisites.

First, he had a very good grasp of the movements and the strength, and second, he took expensive blood-enhancing medicine before practicing.

Mo Hao had some guesses in his mind, and continued to practice a few times in the living room. After memorizing the Bull Power, he went downstairs.

Soon he returned with several fish of various kinds and sizes in buckets.

He took out a grass carp about the length of his forearm, and with a sharp movement of the knife, he took the life of the grass carp. Then Mo Hao felt a warm current flowing into his body.

After killing three fishes in a row cleanly and neatly, I could clearly feel the heat flowing in my body, as if hot water was flowing in my blood vessels.

Then he stood in the living room and practiced his Bull Strength once again, and this time the feeling was more obvious.

At this moment, he had already determined one thing, that is, it was no longer necessary for him to exercise his qi and blood.

"It seems that the [Soul Furnace] directly increases my Qi and blood. This is not much different from the concept of [Maximum Health]."

The passive ability of [Soul Furnace] in the game is that every time a unit is killed, the maximum health value will be increased by 4 points.

But there will definitely be some changes between the game and reality. Mo Hao does not expect that [Soul Furnace] can increase the maximum health by 4 points by killing an ant.
