Chapter 7 First Kill

Chapter 7 First Kill
Water dripping wears away stone?

That is not something that can be done overnight.

Lao Zhan hesitated:
"Shao Ping, this."

Such a simple punishment can even be said to be painless. What effect can it have on a strong man in the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm?

Old James swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Fu Shaoping was also unsure.

The water dripping torture was one of the ten most bloodless tortures he remembered. Rather than saying that the water dripping pierced the bones, it was more like saying that the spirit was riddled with holes. He wondered if the willpower of this man at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm could withstand it.

Although Lao Zhan was not optimistic, he still ordered the jailers to take turns to guard day and night and add water to the basin.

Come up from the second underground floor.

Fu Shaoping was eager to show his skills again, but was told that he would not be required to carry out executions in the next few days.

There's nothing wrong with staying in jail.

For several days.

He spent all his time in the practice room.

I practiced the "Xuanwu Yangqigong" during the day and the "Piaomiao Footwork" until midnight at night. As for the "Tiger Roar Fist", I haven't started practicing it yet. I plan to practice the "Piaomiao Footwork" to the "entry level" first.

In the blink of an eye.

Half a month had passed since he joined Zhenwu Division.

"Whoo~"

In the practice room.

Fu Shaoping let out a sigh of relief.

Attention is focused on the Mysterious Fate Treasure Mirror in the Sea of ​​Consciousness:
"Physical Refining Realm Level 32 (100/)"

Fu Shaoping frowned. He practiced day and night, and even with two packets of Blood Qi Powder, his progress was still a little slow. The one-month period was almost up. If he could not be promoted to the second level of the Body Tempering Realm before going out on a mission, he would be in great danger.

After getting up.

In the practice room.

He took thirty-six steps in a mysterious and smooth manner. Although his speed was not fast, each turn was at an unexpected angle:
"Piaomiao Footwork: A Glimpse of the Tips (3/100)"

Complete a circle.

Fu Shaoping was a little out of breath.

Practicing second-grade martial arts with the first-level cultivation of the Body Tempering Realm was more difficult than he had imagined, and there was still a long way to go before he could "get started".

Whether it is a technique or martial arts.

If you want to take a shortcut, it seems that you have no choice but to use the [Xuanming Treasure Mirror].

Fortunately, there is good news.

That means there is a murderer in prison who will be hanged tomorrow!
The death penalty is the highest form of punishment.

Fu Shaoping was looking forward to it, wondering if tomorrow's punishment would be one or two more points than the previous two. This was also his first time killing someone, and although there was no blood, it was impossible for him not to feel a little nervous.

"Ring ring ring"

The timer bell rang in the room.

Fu Shaoping got up and left the room. After returning home, he ate a few simple bites and fell asleep.

The next day.

Fu Shaoping arrived at the prison a cup of tea earlier than usual.

Old Qiu from the prison quickly stepped forward:
"Sir, everything is ready. In half an incense stick, it will be time for the execution."

There is also an independent small dark room on one side of the Xingfang.

But I saw a long iron chain hanging upside down on the roof beam.

There is a coffin box under the iron chain.

Lao Qiu carefully explained how to carry out the execution.

Fu Shaoping nodded slightly.

At this time, the jailer had brought in a middle-aged man. The man sneered nervously and was not afraid of the upcoming execution at all. When the jailer pushed the man onto the coffin lid, Fu Shaoping turned his head and asked:
"Why did he kill people?"

"After being rejected for not being able to pay the bride price, he never felt comfortable with the idea. Later, when he learned that his fiancée had married someone else and had a child, he chose the time of the child's full-month celebration and poisoned the well, killing all 79 people who came to the banquet, including the host family. In addition, to vent his anger, he threw the only surviving baby to death."

This is simply outrageous. Not even sparing a one-month-old baby is worse than an animal!
Fu Shaoping kicked the coffin lid open with force. The prisoner, without a foothold, was immediately suspended in the air, and the iron chain around his neck fell down with a rustling sound. Fu Shaoping pulled the chain in with his right hand and it stopped in an instant.

The condemned prisoner weighed no more than 100 pounds.

With his current strength, even lifting something weighing 200 kilograms is easy.

"woo woo woo woo"

The prisoner struggled desperately to break free, kicking his legs in the air for a while, and then his hands and legs slowly went limp.

Fu Shaoping loosened his grip.

"Bang" sound.

The condemned prisoner fell heavily into his coffin.

Old Qiu, who was standing by, saw Fu Shaoping do the whole thing without even blinking, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. This man was truly extremely courageous, and no one could believe that this was his first time killing someone.

Fu Shaoping's eyes fell on the death row prisoner.

However, he saw wisps of strange energy rising rapidly from the opponent's body. Compared with the previous white energy, this time the red energy had not yet fallen, but he could feel a qualitative difference.

"boom!!!"

But then I saw the [Xuanming Treasure Mirror] flashing violently.

Among the sixteen runes that had been extinguished around the treasure mirror, one of them actually lit up.

at the same time.

A line of text flashed in the treasure book:
"Body Refining Realm Level 1 (100/)"

Fu Shaoping never expected this.

He actually broke through to the second level of the Body Tempering Realm!

The sins of this murderer must be so great to have received so much feedback. No wonder the energy projected from him is red!

Fu Shaoping clenched his fists.

Suddenly, I felt a huge force lingering in my palm.

If he was at the first level of the Body Tempering Realm, he could only carry 200 kilograms, but now it was no problem for him to carry 400 kilograms.

"This is the power of the strong!!"

Fu Shaoping was deeply excited.

But his face didn't show any sign of it.

After the excitement.

He immediately realized something and focused his attention again, only to see the treasure mirror flash slightly, and a line of text flashed again:
"Piaomiao Footwork: A Glimpse of the Tips (30/100)"

Fu Shaoping was delighted.

He remembered that it was "3" points before, but now it has jumped to "30". It is obvious that the treasure book can improve martial arts!

On the other hand, after the technique was upgraded to the second level of the Body Tempering Realm, no further points were added.

Fu Shaoping pondered for a moment:
"Does this mean that I can only choose a technique or martial arts each time I add points? Will it rotate to the next one after reaching 100?"

Want to verify.

Just try again.

His attention was focused on the sixteen runes surrounding the [Xuanming Baojian].

The lit rune shone with a hazy red light, which was particularly eye-catching. He vaguely remembered that when the Mysterious Fate Treasure Mirror was turned for the first time, the sixteen runes around the treasure mirror were lit up.

If we follow this inference.

In other words.

The next time all sixteen runes of [Xuanming Baojian] are lit up, the gears of fate will start turning again.

His fate will change again.

No longer [hate evil as much as anything]!
Everything is full of unknowns.

If it is a good fate, then it will be icing on the cake. If it turns into bad luck, then it will be terrible!

Fu Shaoping collected his thoughts.

After half a month of practice, he was promoted to the second level of the Body Tempering Realm. If he was detected, it would arouse suspicion from others. So Fu Shaoping asked for leave from Old Zhan, took away the two packets of Blood Qi Powder placed in the Treasure Hall, asked the errand boy to tell his family, and then announced that he would go into seclusion.
