Demon Emperor

Chapter 29 Help me practice
Xuanwu Field, South of the City Camp.

Ruan Hu is on patrol.

The entire military camp was in training. If what Ruan Hu had done before was to replace problematic generals and select talented officers, then...

So now the main focus is on training troops.

Training physical strength and courage, understanding commands, practicing martial arts, setting up camp formations, and so on.

The Imperial Guards recently launched separate attacks, breaching temples dedicated to the God of Horses and those that worshipped the Way of Hell around Xijing.

They cut down mountains and destroyed temples, smashed up illicit shrines, and executed those sorcerers who pretended to be gods and ghosts.

Besides.

Ruan Hu also recruited many new men, filling the Imperial Guard's ranks.

They are all recruited from respectable families and are currently undergoing training.

The training ground was Xuanwu Field, and Ruan Hu was among them.

He would occasionally pick up a knife or spear and practice his skills, draw his longbow to practice archery, or ride a horse and shoot arrows.

The new recruits, lacking experience, were often amazed by Ruan Hu's displays of skill.

"His Majesty actually possesses such martial arts skills?"

"What's so special about that? His Majesty once shot down a demon with an arrow in Fenghuang Mountain, killed a bandit with a roar on the city gate tower, and shot down a traitor with a bow."

"But judging from His Majesty's martial arts skills, it seems they have improved again!"

Ruan Hu also used his physiognomy skills to assess these people, trying to discover talented individuals among them.

just.

Ruan Hu felt weak all over after practicing for only a short time today.

"His Majesty!"

Why did you stop?

Ruan Hu raised his hand: "I have other matters to attend to today. Remember to practice diligently, as I will need you greatly in the future."

Ruan Hu left the camp and mounted his horse.

I then felt sore and weak all over, especially in my waist.

"hiss!"

Activating one's spiritual awareness to its fullest extent is not without its challenges; it requires the expenditure of vital energy.

Ruan Hu thought this must be what is called refining essence into qi and refining qi into spirit. Thinking about it this way, it really is cultivation.

Physical strength training doesn't show results overnight.

Besides training, talent is also extremely important. If the upper limit is already determined, it is difficult to reach the desired height no matter how much you train.

But recently, Ruan Hu has found a solution.

"Use the shape to supplement the shape!"

After coming back.

Ruan Hu first met with the court officials, and then summoned Zhou Kaigu of the Detective Bureau to ask him questions.

As soon as it got dark.

Ruan Hu bathed and changed his clothes, then sat in the quiet room in the back hall.

The main hall was spacious, and instead of gauze curtains, rolled-up paper mats hung on all four sides.

When lowered, it can block the wind, and it also has paintings on it like a screen.

At this moment, after the paper mat was laid down, it was as if walls of landscape paintings had been erected in the main hall, winding and turning like a maze.

Ruan Hu sat in the deepest part, like a god in a nine-story palace.

Outside, a middle-aged eunuch knelt outside the door, kowtowing towards the inside through layers of paper paintings.

"Your Majesty, the items have been retrieved."

Ruan Hu: "Bring it in."

The eunuch slowly walked through layers of paper mats, and after arriving in front of Ruan Hu, he held up a long box.

After Ruan Hu opened it, he took out a stick of incense.

The incense stick was thick and large, but its shape was rather unsightly.

This thing was made using a method taught by the Celestial Maiden of Wonderful Fragrance, and the main ingredient was obtained from the donkey-headed demon.

By using the secret techniques of incense making to dry and grind the powder into incense and then combining it with other materials to make incense, Ruan Hu can absorb the power within by consuming the incense and using the method of "Chang Hun: Using Form to Supplement Form".

At that moment, Ruan Hu lit the thick incense stick.

In an instant, a rich fragrance burst forth as if a silver bottle had been broken.

"Ugh! Ugh!"

Ruan Hu also heard the braying of a donkey. Looking up, he saw that the demon he had seen before had actually appeared in the void.

Its hind hooves are twice the size of its forehooves, allowing it to stand upright like a human, with layers of smoke enveloping its body like clothing.

The monster gradually took shape as if it had come to life, then let out a strange cry and tried to escape.

At that moment, Ruan Hu, who was sitting cross-legged, took a long breath.

A gust of wind swept through the void, and the shadows formed by the condensed fragrance and smoke spread outwards, engulfing Ruan Hu's nostrils.

【Changhun: Using Form to Supplement Form】

However, after inhaling the fragrant smoke, Ruan Hu immediately sensed that something was wrong.

Just now, I only smelled the fragrance and thought it was very strong, even a bit cloying.

However, once inhaled, the rich aroma immediately takes on a lewd quality, stirring up fantasies and arousing restless thoughts.

Ruan Hu felt as if a mischievous monkey or a wild horse had crawled into his body, running around wildly.

this thing.

It's truly bizarre.

At this moment, the "Universal True Scripture of the Heavenly Maiden of Wonderful Fragrance" rang in Ruan Hu's ears again.

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

The aroma called out his name, and Ruan Hu responded.

Then, Ruan Hu was drawn into the wondrous world within the mural.

Even after arriving at this place, the decadent fragrance still lingered around Ruan Hu.

Ruan Hu landed on the cloud bed, still pondering how to strengthen himself using the [Changhun - Form Supplementing Form] technique.

However, as the rich aroma continued to penetrate into his body, the restless thoughts within him became increasingly difficult to subdue.

In an instant, it suddenly began to break free of its control.

In the heavenly palace.

White gauze curtains hung down like clouds, and one after another, alluring and graceful figures came from all directions through the "hanging clouds" and flew onto the cloud bed.

Ruan Hu sat cross-legged on the cloud bed, like a holy monk entangled by a demon.

He looked up and opened his eyes: "What is this?"

The Heavenly Maiden Miaoxiang said, "This is the former third-generation ruler of the Western Liang Women's Kingdom, this is the former twelfth-generation Holy Maiden of my sect, this is the former princess of the Tu Hun Kingdom, this..."

The Celestial Maiden of Wonderful Fragrance introduced the origins of the celestial maidens in each of the wondrous paradises. Except for the Celestial Maiden of Wonderful Fragrance, who truly came from heaven and earth, the others were all beautiful spirits who died tragically in the Western Regions or even more distant places in the past.

Ruan Hu: What brings you here?

The Celestial Maiden Miaoxiang: "I have come to assist Your Majesty in your cultivation."

The aroma kept flooding into his body, and Ruan Hu was already showing signs of losing control.

At this moment, provoked again, Ruan Hu's body immediately emitted a roar like that of a dragon and a tiger, accompanied by a wild howl like that of a donkey or a horse.

A terrifying figure emerged from behind him, and Ruan Hu became as arrogant and ferocious as a demon, pulling the person in front of him into his arms.

Done.

Ruan Hu lay on the cloud bed, which was covered by layers of gauze curtains, and looked at the celestial maiden with her jade arms around him, and asked.

Ruan Hu: "Why use this method of consuming qi and inhaling fragrance? Isn't it like using form to supplement form?"

Miaoxiang Tiannu: "Your Majesty's physical foundation is not yet solid. If you take it directly without proper care, you will be unable to tolerate the nourishment."

"Moreover, Your Majesty's method of bewitching people is incomplete, and only my method can perfect it."
-
When Ruan Hu opened his eyes, it was already the second day.

As he was being helped to change by palace maids, Ruan Hu looked at himself in the bronze mirror and observed him carefully.

"Hmm~"

Ruan Hu leaned closer to take a look and found that he didn't seem to have changed much.

Looking down, I noticed the change.

Centered on the waistline, the design spreads outwards to the limbs in a well-defined manner, giving a powerful impression with every gesture.

Ruan Hu raised his hands and straightened his chest, and the streamlined contours of his body began to move.

Like a galloping horse, or a leaping cheetah.

Very aesthetic.

Ruan Hu arrived at the Xuanwu Field of the Great Camp once again, and tested his martial arts skills once more.

"call out!"

Ruan Hu had struggled to draw the hard bow before, but now he could draw it to its full strength and still felt he had plenty of energy left.

The horse, which was originally somewhat difficult to control, became obedient under Ruan Hu's feet. He could pull the reins and make it move in whichever direction he wanted.

Even when drawing a bow and arrow on horseback, he was no longer affected in the slightest.

As for his swordsmanship, Ruan Hu had also become even more skilled.

even.

Ruan Hu also picked up a spear and a lance from the training ground and showed them off. Although he had no skill whatsoever, the strength he displayed was astonishing.

The sixteen-foot-long lance was wielded with great skill and power in Ruan Hu's hands.

"Why is Your Majesty so energetic and vigorous today?"

"Amazing!"

"it is good!"

Some people were horrified, but most of the ordinary Imperial Guards' sons cheered loudly at the sight.

This was just the beginning; over the next period of time, these changes in Ruan Hu became increasingly apparent.

Ruan Hu's physique seemed to have returned to that of an infant, undergoing rapid changes.

His whole body went through another development process, and he even grew taller.

Standing shirtless in the military camp, even among officers who honed their physiques daily, he appeared as strong and robust as if he were made of iron, dazzlingly handsome.

It was truly a complete transformation.

This change did not stop until more than a month later.
