The foul smell of blood filled the air.

It was pungent and smelly, and there were traces of dried blood all around.

The fragmented and shattered sword fragments reflected bright white spots in the sunlight.

Many more are either deeply embedded in the trees on both sides of the road or buried in the weeds by wind and sand.

Xu Xi walked along the gravel road.

But the further he walked, the dirtier the road became.

It seems like he has been through some fierce battle.

Xu Xi frowned and slowed down his pace: "What happened here?"

Thinking back to the hurried figures driving Mercedes-Benzes that I had seen earlier, I guessed that there might be a war going on ahead.

"Is it between people, or is it..."

[On your way to the town, you found traces of a fierce battle]

[You become alert and slow down your pace, picking up a barely usable knife from the roadside in case of emergency]

【You walk slowly】

You keep walking

[Persistently launching... Qi and blood rushing to the sky...]

[Your persistence brings you a slight improvement in endurance. The abundant Qi and blood protect you from the weakness caused by hunger. Your speed becomes slightly faster.]

[After 45 minutes of careful walking, you successfully arrived at a town]

[After some inquiries, you learn that this is Qingniu Town, located at the outermost edge of "Daqian" and bordering the Shiwan Mountains where demons roam]

[The traces of blood and flesh you see, as well as the destruction caused by fierce battles, are all caused by demons and warriors.]

[This is an extremely terrifying wave of demons. Most of Qingniu Town was destroyed by demons, and many mortals were brutally killed. This is the truth behind the thick, bloody smell you smell.]

Tear——!!

The battle between warriors and demons continues.

A muscular man with a strong physique and bare upper body stepped on the ground and leaped high into the sky, making a powerful and roaring chopping movement.

The sword light stretched out and converged with the sun.

Cut off the Horned Tiger's neck with great force, causing its head to bleed and fall off.

"Great swordsmanship!"

"As expected of you, Master Ji. This tiger-slaying sword technique is truly unique!"

"Hahaha, you all are overbearing!"

The warriors watching applauded.

Many people also cast eager glances.

The man named "Ji" was obviously very pleased with this. He laughed loudly and chased in another direction with a knife.

This is the Qi and Blood Martial Arts. Practitioners of this martial art are usually generous and forthright. When faced with a battle, their blood boils and they can't help but want to tear apart all enemies in their path in the most violent way.

Compared with the immortal cultivators who master all the arts of immortal cultivation.

Compared to a magician who uses knowledge to control the world.

The warrior seemed to be too extreme, adding as much skill points of this extraordinary system as possible to his physical body.

"The tools are weak, but the flesh and blood are rising?"

"That sounds interesting."

After observing for a while, Xu Xi walked into Qingniu Town despite his hunger.

Before the simulation, he had prepared himself early on with various types of training methods, including martial arts.

Whether it is a technique for cultivation or a martial art for life-and-death struggles.

Everything is remembered in my heart.

But before truly practicing, Xu Xi needs to find a foothold and understand the world background of the third simulation more carefully and deeply.

…

【You have taken an important first step】

[Qingniu Town, which has been devastated by demons, is in need of young laborers. You use your healthy body full of energy and blood to earn your first fortune through labor.]

[You buy food, eat as much as you can, and successfully eliminate the hunger in your body]

[In the future, you will quietly save money according to the original plan, and learn about the situation of the Daqian Dynasty from others.]

[At the same time, you began to study Daqian’s writing system and read ancient books by yourself]

【Keep moving...】

[God rewards hard work, your persistence has paid off. You studied hard for a month and have mastered the mainstream characters of the Daqian Dynasty and several ancient characters.]

[Now, you have the most basic understanding of this world]

[This is a vast, boundless world with no limits. Humans have tempered themselves with the martial arts of blood and qi. After countless generations, they have opened up a safe place exclusively for humans.]

[Daqian, born out of necessity]

[The Daqian Dynasty is an extremely powerful dynasty that controls the human territory and maintains the stability of the human race. Under the rule of Daqian, the life of the human race is full of order and no longer as dark and difficult as in ancient times.]

[But outside of Daqian, there are hundreds of thousands of mountains where countless demons and monsters reside]

[The mountains are towering and the peaks are overlapping]

[Monsters and demons swarm around, and demons wreak havoc]

[The Hundred Thousand Mountains are an absolute forbidden area. Even martial arts masters at the human immortal level dare not enter it casually, because the demons inside are endless and cannot be eliminated at all.]

[The places bordering the Shiwanda Mountains, such as the remote areas of Qingniu Town, are often invaded by demons.]

[You suddenly realize and understand the whole story of the Qingniu Town tragedy]

For mortals without power.

Living in a remote place like Qingniu Town is undoubtedly dangerous.

Old people and children alike yearn to live in the counties deeper inside Daqian, but the Daqian court has restricted this and forbids the people from migrating at will.

Therefore, I had to stay where I was.

But the Xu system is different.

"I have persistence and martial arts performance. The two terms complement each other. If used well, the gains from this simulation will definitely not be low."

"The most important thing about the Qi and Blood Martial Arts is life-and-death combat."

"Living here is more suitable for me to practice martial arts."

With his mind racing, Xu Xi made quick arrangements, but he was not in a hurry to start practicing.

The so-called Qi and blood martial arts.

The essence is the development and exploration of the human body.

Xu Xi had just traveled through time, his body was weak, and he lacked medicine to replenish his Qi and blood, so he had to let it settle for a while first.

…

【You choose to settle in Qingniu Town】

[You work hard every day, exchanging your labor for money. Your persistence and sweat are very impressive.]

[Due to your long-term labor, your physical fitness has increased]

【Day after day, month after month】

[You have persisted in practicing boxing for a long time. Although you do not have the support of Qi and blood, your understanding of the basic boxing and kicking has become deeper, and your body has begun to remember the power techniques of punching.]

[A year and a half has passed, and you have accumulated a small fortune. You decide that it is time to practice Qi and Blood Martial Arts.]

[You spent all your money to buy yourself medicine to strengthen your blood and qi]

[Following a specific sequence and technique, prepare a dose of Qi and Blood Powder, and a corresponding medicinal bath that can help you stimulate the Qi and blood in your body]

[You use both at the same time]

[Your Qi and blood potential is rapidly stimulated, instantly breaking through the first level of the mortal body's restrictions, Qi and blood surge throughout your body, your muscles and bones resonate, and you enter the first realm of martial arts.]

A year and a half passed in a flash.

Xu Xipan sat inside the dilapidated wooden house.

The whole body is red.

Subcutaneous surging.

The real martial arts skills gained through operation in the real world.

The scattered Qi and blood are slowly collected back into the body, and circulated in the body at a specific frequency, forming a long river of Qi and blood that never stops flowing.

The meridians are connected and the state is accomplished.
