I'm the only player

Chapter 432 [Small Success]

In a blink of an eye, twenty-seven days passed.

In the morning, in the courtyard room, He Sheng sat cross-legged on the couch. The last time the "Tong Xuan Jue" was activated, a message popped up in the upper left corner of his sight.

[Repaying: "Tong Xuan Jue" 3000/3000. 】

【Repayment completed! 】

[Advanceable options: "Shadow-Killing Blade Technique", "Tongxuan Jue" (Great Mastery), "Big Stone-Opening Hand". ]

【Number of advance payments available: 1. 】

"call--"

I exhaled a breath and glanced at the sky outside the window. It was almost noon.

[Advanceable options: "Shadow-Killing Blade Technique", "Tongxuan Jue" (minor success), "Dakaibei Hand". ]

[May I ask if you would like to advance the payment for "Tong Xuan Jue" (Dacheng)? ]

[Result: The "Tong Xuan Jue" is complete, and the energy is strong. ]

[Reason: Practicing the "Tong Xuan Jue" 15,000 times.]

【whether? 】

"???"

How many times!
Fifteen thousand times.

"Thirty-four times a day, fifteen thousand times requires four hundred and forty-two days." It took more than a year to complete the "Tong Xuan Jue", which is actually not slow at all. How many people have practiced for more than ten years and have not reached the state of perfection?

It's just that his standards are a bit high.

"I don't know if this thing can shorten the number of repayments." After he finished speaking, he took out a porcelain bottle, which contained a white pill.

[Future changes have been detected and are being captured.]

【Capture completed! 】

[May I ask if you would like to advance the payment for "Tong Xuan Jue" (Dacheng)? ]

[Result: The "Tong Xuan Jue" is complete, and the energy is strong. ]

[Reason: Practiced the "Tong Xuan Jue" 14,000 times. (Under the interference of a high-quality bone strengthening pill, the debt that the player needs to repay is reduced.)]

【whether? 】

It works!

His future is not static, and he needs to take the initiative to intervene and try to reduce the repayment cost while keeping the results unchanged.

"Damn, one bone strengthening pill reduces the penalty by a thousand times, that's really dark."

He learned about the bone strengthening pill indirectly when he was chatting with the two general flags in the Hundred Households Office. In fact, it is not only the realm of strengthening the bones that has pills.

At the stage of Qi training into the body, there are Qi training pills to assist in training. At the stage of Qi penetrating the whole body, there are Qi penetrating pills to speed up the spiritual energy to cleanse the muscles, greatly reducing the time required. Similarly, at the stage of Qi strengthening the bones, there are also bone strengthening pills to take.

The bone strengthening pills were good in every way, except that they were a little expensive, more than 200 taels per pill. But there were cheaper ones, just over 100 taels, but the quality was not very good.

I used the silver I got from the escort to treat my brothers from the Hundred Households Office, and the remaining money was just enough to buy an elixir.

Fortunately, the prices in Songlin County are not that outrageous, otherwise he would have gone bankrupt and his girlfriend would have gone bankrupt.

"What a pity."

He Sheng looked at the bone strengthening pill in his hand and suddenly said something without any context. The bone strengthening pill is good, but ordinary people can only take five pills.

More?

No!

Previous people have tried it and found that after taking five bone-strengthening pills, continuing to take the pills will do more harm than good.

"Ten thousand times, five thousand times will be exempted, saving one third of the time. Two hundred and ninety-five days? No, it won't be more than two hundred and ninety days. If it is during holidays, I can practice a few more times, and it will be a few days earlier."

The position of the chief flag bearer of Zhenbei County can be retained by a centurion for one year, which is enough!
By then, with the help of the "Advance Future System", he will be able to stand on equal footing with Lord Baihu, and he will not be afraid of being assassinated when he is alone outside.

"The most urgent thing is to get money and buy bone strengthening pills from the Hundred Households Office."

That’s right, the elixir was provided by Baihu.

Other places?

Ha ha.

Maybe there are things like bone strengthening pills, but they are definitely not as powerful as the bone strengthening pills of the Hundred Households. Do you really think that the Shadow Division Flag is an ordinary organization? It is a real personal army of the emperor, with many hidden benefits.

Let alone other things, just selling the bone strengthening pills, according to General Wang, it is not a problem to increase the value of one pill five times. The only problem is that even if you are a general flag or a centurion, you can only buy five pills, no more!
Bone strengthening pills, limited quantity.

In fact, there is not only a limit, but also a limit on realm. According to the rules, He Sheng is not eligible to buy it. But who told him to give a thousand taels of silver to the centurion? They opened the door to convenience.

With the strength he has shown, it will not be a problem for him to cultivate to the level of Qi-Strong Bones in the future. Of course, after Qi-Strong Bones, he will not be able to buy the sixth one.

"Why don't you have elixirs for sword techniques?"

He felt a little uncomfortable when he saw that his sword skills didn't even have a bracket. To be honest, there was really no way, as the whole day was filled with "Tongxuan Jue" and he couldn't squeeze out a little time to practice sword skills.

“I wonder if the number of times I can get the remaining bone strengthening pills and repay the “Tong Xuan Jue” in the future can be reduced.”

It is definitely impossible to ask him to wait until he gets five bone-strengthening pills before advancing the future. He will have to go out of the city to suppress bandits in two days, and who knows who he will encounter.

If I were to capsize in a ditch because of this, it would be such an unfair death.

"Advance payment!"

[Advanceable options: "Shadow-Killing Blade Technique", "Tongxuan Jue" (Great Mastery), "Big Stone-Opening Hand". ]

【Number of advance payments available: 1. 】

[Repaying: "Tong Xuan Jue" - 0/14000. 】

At the same time, the bone-strengthening pill in his hand disappeared.

"."

Damn, there is no loophole left for me at all.

Then, he lost his voice.

Because the bones in my body are being crushed bit by bit, yes, crushed, not broken. The feeling of having my bones crushed into powder is really a torture.

When his entire body softened into a puddle, a stream of spiritual energy burst out from the bone powder. Under the influence of the spiritual energy, the bones were reshaped.

After about two hours, he sat cross-legged on the bed again.

"I finally understand why Zhang Shan, who is in his forties, is still stuck in the realm of strong vitality."

It must be said, but anyone who is afraid of pain will probably be stuck at the level of having a strong body and bones for the rest of his life, without making any progress.

Each period of practice is equivalent to experiencing torture. People without great willpower really have no way to reach a higher level.

From this perspective, although Black Tiger Gang leader Zhao Hu is a brainless man who only knows how to charge into battle, he has achieved what he has today thanks to the support of his brother, County Lieutenant Zhao Long, but his perseverance is unmistakable.

"what?"

Wait a minute, what did he see?

【Number of advance payments available: 1. 】

Normally, shouldn't it be zero?

No, that's not right.

I am now in the Qi-Strong Root Bone Stage, and my physical condition has been greatly strengthened again, so the number of times I can advance payments has also increased.

"Great!"

"Shadow-Killing Saber Technique", you can finally get the brackets. [Advanceable options: "Shadow-Killing Saber Technique", "Tongxuan Jue" (minor success), "Dakaibei Hand". ]

[May I ask if you would like to advance payment for "Shadow-Killing Blade Technique"? ]

【Result: Minor success in the "Shadow-Killing Blade Technique".】

【Reason: Practice the "Shadow-Killing Sabre Technique" a thousand times.】

【whether? 】

"Yes."

The next second, a lot of information flooded into my mind.

After a long while, he slowly exhaled a breath of foul air.

[Repaying: "Tong Xuan Jue" - 0/14000. 】

[Repaying: "Shadow-Killing Blade Technique" - 0/1000. 】

The Xiaocheng "Shadow-Killing Sword Technique" is enough.

In fact, even without the minor success of the swordsmanship, the perfect state of "Tongxuan Jue" alone is enough for him. However, with the state of Qi Zhuang Gen Gu combined with the minor success of "Lu Ying Swordsmanship", he is invincible under the hundred households!
In the evening, He Sheng went to the Hundred Households Office with a refreshed spirit. As soon as he arrived, he was immediately called into the Hundred Households Room. At this moment, two general flags and nine small flags gathered in the room.

"Hurry to Tiaojian Village overnight and leave the village at 3:30 am. No one is allowed to reveal the news I told you. Next, assign tasks to each of your teams."

"General Zhang, your team will be responsible for the main attack from the village gate. Don't worry, just like before, someone will open the door for you when you get there. General Wang, the five of you teams, surround the village and don't let even a dog escape."

After arranging all the tasks, the captain waved his hand.

"set off!"

More than a hundred people left the city from the south gate overnight. The centurions and general flag officers rode horses, while the remaining small flag officers and captains could only walk. They still had to become officials, and high-ranking officials.

On the city wall, the county lieutenant looked at the captain of the centurion's office who was going away and sneered.

Two hours later, we arrived at the foot of Tiaojianzhai Mountain.

"He Xiaoqi, take your men to guard the east. Li Xiaoqi, the west."

Soon, when He and his men came to the east, they found a good place. The mountain was quite steep and no one could break through from there.

Who wouldn’t be happy if they could get paid without working?

"What a good job."

The captains were also happy. General Wang was a good man. No, it should be said that following He Xiaoqi was a blessing. It was probably because of the "music" at He Qunfanglou over 20 days ago that General Wang took special care of their team.

At three quarters after noon, the village on the hilltop suddenly caught fire.

"It's gone!!"

On the mountain, the panicked shouts of the bandits were heard. Then came the sounds of fighting and killing. Moreover, the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and it seemed that it would burn the whole world clean.

After about half an hour, the shouting and killing gradually died down. Then, a yellow flag flower burst into life. Yellow means that the enemy has broken through, warning the colleagues outside to be alert.

"Crossbowman!"

He Sheng called out, and the five captains holding crossbows immediately stopped laughing and became serious.

For this bandit suppression, the centurion specially applied for a batch of crossbows from above. Each team responsible for the suppression was given three crossbows. After all, those who could break through were all strong bandits.

"Ok?"

There were sounds of footsteps on the cliff.

"Be on guard. Aim upwards. When I say release, don't hesitate."

"Yes."

Five lieutenants holding crossbows responded without any nonsense. Usually, when patrolling in the Hundred Households, telling a joke is nothing. But now when fighting bandits outside, military orders are as heavy as a mountain. If someone dares to make a joke, he will be killed with a knife. If the lawsuit is brought to the emperor, the emperor will not say a wrong word.

"put!!"

"Shhhhh-"

The sound of breaking through the air rang out one after another, and crossbow arrows shot at the cliffs one by one. It is worth mentioning that the crossbow arrows produced by Baihusuo Huoling can be fired continuously.

Even though there are only five people, the "firepower" they unleashed is definitely no less than that of dozens of soldiers armed with single-shot crossbows.

The bandits who broke out from the cliff did not expect that when they just leaned out and were about to climb down, an arrow would hit their faces.

"Puff!" "Puff!" "Puff!"

Even a hundred households would not want to be hit by a few arrows forged by Huoling, let alone the bandits who were less alert. They fell from the cliff with several arrows stuck in their heads.

"Plop!" "Plop!"

The cliff is over a hundred meters high, and if a person falls from it, he will be torn into pieces like a cannonball.

"There's an ambush!"

"Brother, what should we do?"

“Throw the rock down.”

There aren't many other things on the mountain of Tiaojian Village, but there are plenty of stones.

"retreat."

None of his lieutenants had practiced Qigong. Even if they did, they wouldn't be able to withstand a huge rock being dropped from a height of hundreds of meters.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

Densely packed rocks fell from above, breaking into pieces as they hit the hard rock. Some of the flying fragments bruised the faces of several lieutenants.

Some fragments hit the armor, causing them to grimace in pain.

"You guys keep smashing up there. Butler Liu and I will go down first. Once we've dealt with the black dogs, you guys can climb down again."

Hearing the conversation on the cliff, He Sheng drew out the steel knife from his waist.

A tough battle is coming!
Hey, that's not right.

He was a person at the level of perfect Qi and strong bones. The person who ran down the mountain was definitely not a Niubi person. At the very least, Niubi was no more than a hundred households.

It's still the same old saying, if you really have the strength of a hundred households, you wouldn't go up the mountain to become a bandit.

“Swish!” “Swish!”

Two people slid down the cliff.

On the other side, "Shadow-Killing Sword Technique" - "Soul-Breaking Slash"!
A ten-foot-long blade light extended from the steel knife, which was many times stronger than when he fought with the bodyguard.

"Hey~~~"

A figure flashed to the foot of the cliff, then jumped into the air and stepped heavily on the rock wall. The whole person stepped from the bottom to the top. Each step was very large, and every step would inevitably cause the surrounding rocks to shatter.

"Oh no, someone stole it."

The man called the second brother had not yet uttered the word "attack" when He Sheng was seen wielding a single sword, swinging out dense blades that intertwined into a net bag and rushed towards the two men.

"Shadow-killing Sword Technique" - "Thousand Eyes Slash"!
The knife net was coming, and the only way for the two of them to retreat was to climb back up. The problem was that there was no place to leverage on the steep rock wall. In addition, the sliding down from the jump really made them think that the two of them were gods.

The second brother who slid the fastest died first.

The whole person was swept by the knife net mercilessly. After sliding down a few meters, he shattered into pieces of flesh and blood with a loud crash, and fell to the ground like flowers scattered by a fairy.

But the housekeeper Liu was more cunning, not only did he slide slowly, but he also stepped on the rock and used his fingers to slow down his descent.

He didn't care about his bloody fingers, and slapped the rock wall with one hand to force himself to fly out horizontally. Although he avoided the deadly knife net, he was suspended in mid-air, unable to stop falling.

Don't mention the other party's realm, unless he is at the level of Baihu, or like him, he has reshaped all his bones and reached the perfect level of Qi Zhuang Gen Gu realm. Otherwise, even if he is a master at the Qi Guan Quan realm, he will still break bones and tendons.

"boom!!"
