Start from a baby to become a Taoist

Chapter 376 Hurry!
The sign of the successful first stage of tempering of the calf bones is a layer of light blue engraved on the calf.

However, the Dacheng [Innate Saint Body] is somewhat different from others.

The first stage of tempering of the calf bone was successful. At the beginning, the entire calf will appear golden, and then this golden color will slowly blend into the calf bone.

"How long has it been since the first stage was successful?"

At this time, the junior sister was also surprised.

Although she didn't know much about body training, she still knew some basic things like tempering the calf bones.

At the very least, ancient books record that the fastest record holder took three days from the beginning of tempering the calf bones to the success of the first stage.

These three days require a large amount of bone-tempering liquid, spiritual herbs, and the blood of various high-level monsters, which is simply not something an ordinary person can afford.

Such a time is actually unnecessary, after all, this is a competition of resource consumption.

Moreover, after your calf bone is tempered successfully in the first stage, the second and third stages will follow.
In the following stages, you cannot stay like this forever. After all, human nourishment is limited, but self-improvement is unlimited.

In the tempering of the calf bones, especially in the first stage, it takes such a huge amount of nourishment, which is not worth it.

Moreover, as the stage of calf bone tempering becomes higher and higher, the resources required will increase exponentially.

No family can afford such consumption.

The most important thing is that the various conditions required for tempering will gradually increase, until finally, even the heart blood of a monster like Kunpeng will be needed.

Where can I find this?
Therefore, ancient books only record the speed of the first stage of calf bone tempering, and there is no record at all after that.

But now, Xu Ran's performance completely shattered their worldview.

Unexpectedly, tempering the calf bones does not consume any of the body's own resources at all, and can be done by relying solely on the flames gushing out of the nine-story tower.

"Can I temper my calf bones just by staying on that wooden stake?"

The junior sister asked curiously.

after all.

Xu Ran kept jumping on the wooden stake to avoid the flames, and then his calf bone broke through.

She is not specialized in physical cultivation, so she doesn't understand this.

"It's not that simple!" The second brother began, "It looks like this newcomer is just randomly jumping on the wooden stakes to avoid the flames."

"But in reality, he's using extremely high-temperature magma flames to impact the calf bones, forcing them to break through their limits quickly, thereby achieving the effect of tempering the calf bones!"

"This method is similar to the first level of the boxing trial, where we used spiritual energy to impact the Yongquan acupoint!"

In the source world, the higher the energy of an object, the more precise its actions tend to be.

The magma below could spray flames so regularly and directly aim at Xu Ran, leaving him only a little time to react.

Moreover, once the body is completely contaminated by the extremely high temperature of the flame, even the most accomplished [Innate Saint Body] will not be able to withstand this intense heat.

This means that the magma underneath contains extremely terrifying energy, which is even more terrifying than the combined attribute energy of the five attribute backgrounds in the previous Five Elements Trial.

In this case, the calf bones can be tempered by the ejected magma, achieving a rapid tempering effect.

Just as the danger of using spiritual energy to impact the Yongquan acupoint is huge, the danger for Xu Ran at this moment to use magma to temper his calf bones is just as great, even more so!

"To achieve this, you need to have extreme confidence in yourself, extreme reaction ability, and extreme insight!"

First of all.

During this process, you need to quickly predict the direction, landing point and highest point of the flame, and at the same time, react quickly to avoid the flame actually hurting you.

This degree needs to be controlled extremely delicately.

This method can be said to be extremely bold, but Xu Ran's success means that his method works!

Suddenly, the three brothers and sisters were completely impressed by Xu Ran. It was like he had such great confidence, such great ability, and such huge potential.
For such a person, passing the trial should be a matter of destiny.

And this moment.

The bald man, who was also an observer, appeared in the void at this moment.

Don’t look at him at this moment, the world around him is full of darkness, as if there is no light here.

His body, with its heart beating rapidly, was undoubtedly exposed at this moment.

At this moment, his face was flushed and there was a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.

"Oh my God, who let you pass the level like this?"

After seeing Xu Ran's method of passing the level, the bald man couldn't help but finally spoke.

At this moment, he saw Xu Ran successfully pass through the flames with extremely exquisite leg skills, and use extremely violent flame energy to temper his calf bones. Even he, the gatekeeper, was extremely surprised to see this.

"Is this method of passing the level difficult?"

The bald man touched his hairless head with his hand and said helplessly.

"It's just to make you hold on until the last wooden stake under the flames. Then you will have successfully tempered your calf bones."

"Who can? He can use the energy of fire to temper his calf bones!!"

The bald man was a little anxious at this time.

After all, Xu Ran is the first person to enter this level of trial in such a long time, and he is most likely the last person to enter the trial of the nine-story tower.

If he could really cultivate peacefully in the nine-story tower for hundreds of years, when he walked out of the tower, he would definitely be invincible in the world!
Moreover, with the physique of a fully accomplished [Innate Saint Body], living to that age would be absolutely easy.

It would be great if we could follow the routine.

I didn't expect that such a method would be found suddenly.

This made Baldy's heart jump to his throat! ! !
"Although this approach is extremely dangerous, if you are not careful, you may die."

"But judging by the results right now, this method can quickly and successfully temper the first stage of calf bones!"

This level is a test of leg skills.

As long as the calf bone is successfully tempered to the first stage, the second level will be unlocked.

"The next level won't work like this!" The bald man thought of the upcoming test. "Next up, it's something real!"

After saying that, he looked through the void and looked at Xu Ran who was standing in the arena.

again and again---
again and again---
again and again---
沓-
When Xu Ran successfully tempered his calf bones and enabled them to successfully pass the first stage of tempering.

The moment it landed on the wooden stake, a series of metallic sounds were heard, as if an extremely heavy steel pipe was hitting the ground straight down.

However, this sound was not the sound of the steel pipe hitting the ground, but the sound of metal as Xu Ran successfully landed on the wooden stake.

"Why do I feel like my body has become lighter?!"

Xu Ran had just stood firmly on the wooden stake when his face lit up with joy as he looked at his trouser legs that had been burned by the flames.

"It seems that my method is still very effective!"

Xu Ran tore open the trouser leg that was damaged by the flames with his hands and turned to look at the wooden stake behind him.

"Um?!"

Before he could get over the joy of having just found a way to break through, everything that was happening before his eyes changed.

I saw.

The hundreds of wooden stakes that had been engulfed by flames before appeared in Xu Ran's eyes again.

However, these wooden stakes were now much closer to the lava than before, estimated to be about ten meters away. Furthermore, countless dark clouds gathered above the wooden stakes, as if a gathering of dark clouds was taking place. Furthermore, within these clouds, flashes of white light could be seen.

"Is that lightning in this dark cloud?"

Xu Ran looked at the dark clouds and murmured.

Things like this can basically be confirmed without checking.

Rumble-——
really.

Just as Xu Ran finished speaking, a roaring sound came from the dark clouds, accompanied by a flash of white light. A white lightning bolt struck straight down and happened to hit the wooden stake.

The wooden stake that was hit seemed to have been burned by flames. It turned black and cracks appeared on the surface.

"I didn't expect you to successfully temper your calf bones so quickly and reach the first stage!"

At this time, a crack was torn in the dark clouds, and a dark space appeared in front of Xu Ran. It was the picture of the void.

Immediately, a bald man with bronze skin walked out.

It was the bald man who tore it apart in the void and appeared in front of Xu Ran.

But at this moment, Xu Ran was not interested in why the bald man came out of the void. Instead, he was very curious about what he said about the tempering of the calf bones.

"Talf bone tempering?"

Xu Ran asked.

Not being ashamed to ask questions is his outstanding quality.

What's more, he already knew the significance of this trial from the trial, which was to teach him the most basic things in cultivation, including various techniques and skills.

For him, who knew nothing about cultivation in the Source Realm, it was of great help and could help him avoid many detours.

The bald man smiled helplessly, holding his forehead.

"As expected, you really don't know anything!" The bald man laughed bitterly. "You've been able to cultivate to this level. I have to say that your potential is the best I've ever seen!"

Xu Ran didn't care at all about what the bald man said.

Don’t know what’s wrong?
I have cultivated to this point, so do other things still matter?

Not important anymore.

Isn't there someone here to answer my questions?!
Basic knowledge can be supplemented later, but once opportunities disappear, they are gone for good.

The bald man knew that Xu Ran knew nothing about these things, so he began to explain.

"There are three stages in the training of leg techniques."

"The first stage: Tempering. You need to use a large amount of bone-tempering liquid, spiritual herbs, and beast blood to specifically forge the calf bones. Once successful, the calf bones will turn green, and every time they hit the ground, they will emit bursts of golden sword sounds!"

As he spoke, Xu Ran looked at his calves.

He discovered that there were golden lines on the surface of his calves, and he was a little confused.

Why is mine golden?

Before Xu Ran could ask, the bald man saw the puzzled look on his face and started explaining directly.

"Gold is the exclusive symbol of the [Innate Saint Body]. Therefore, anyone with the [Innate Saint Body] physique who tempers their calf bones will see golden lines!"

"This golden color can't appear all the time, right? It's too conspicuous!!"

Xu Ran asked.

After all, his calves were always emitting golden light, which was indeed a bit too eye-catching.

If this problem cannot be solved, he will go home and live in the Xu family compound, and he won't need to light candles at night.

But this would cause both Xu Binghu and Lian Ji to be unable to sleep.

Who can fall asleep with such a big light bulb next to you?

"Don't worry, this light will disappear soon!"

"The reason for the glow is that your calf bones have just been successfully tempered and entered the first stage. It can be said that your calf bones have evolved, and your body hasn't adapted for a while, which is why this happens!"

"After a while, this light will disappear!"

The voice just fell.

The bald head, whose entire face was illuminated by golden light just now, suddenly lost all its brightness.

The golden light emanating from Xu Ran's shin bone disappeared.

This is too fast.

As soon as I finished speaking, it was gone.

Seeing this, Xu Ran shook his legs. Without the golden light, he looked more natural.

"Ahem!" The bald man coughed upon seeing this and continued, "The second stage, the meridians are connected!"

"Spiritual energy needs to circulate through fixed meridians!"

"This fixed meridian, from the Three Yin Meridians of the Foot - Chong Mai - Dai Mai, circulates thirty-six times daily. After forty-nine days, you will successfully enter the second stage!"

As soon as these words were spoken, for some reason, an expression of gloating appeared on the bald man's face.

That's right!

The second stage of calf bone tempering requires time to build.

Only by continuously circulating spiritual energy for 49 days every day can you successfully open up the meridians and achieve the effect of opening up the meridians!

Moreover, trying to use spiritual energy to flow through the meridians is an extremely dangerous thing, just like using spiritual energy to impact acupuncture points.

This requires absolute control over spiritual energy; otherwise, if one is not careful, one may end up exploding.

It is said that it takes 49 days, but in fact, any practitioner who has tempered his calf bones to the second stage cannot complete a full cycle in one day, let alone 36 cycles.

This process also takes a lot of time.

When Xu Ran heard this, a smile appeared on his face.

He was very familiar with the meridians being connected.

When he was just born, his meridians were being flushed with innate energy all the time.

Moreover, during this process, the innate qi continues to nourish the meridians.

His meridians are extremely strong, except for substances more peculiar than the innate energy that can completely destroy them.

Spiritual energy flushing?

It's just child's play.

Immediately.

Xu Ran closed his eyes, and the spiritual energy in his body began to circulate. In the blink of an eye, it entered his meridians without any obstruction.

"Ok?"

The bald man felt something was wrong and looked at Xu Ran, his eyes suddenly widened.

"Is this the beginning?"
