This saves many years of result. You said that is difficult?” Jiang Donggui cold snort/hum. “飞业城偌大城池,百万人口,全部三次气血高手加起来,也不会超过三十之数。这还是积攒多年的结果。你说难不难？”江东归冷哼一声。 „Once breaks through, that is carp fish dive Dragon Gate, a third degree qi and blood expert, comes five second degree qi and blood unable to block even. Why can you know this are?” “一旦突破,那便是鲤鱼跃龙门,一个三次气血高手,就算来五个二次气血也挡不住。你可知这是为何？” „Child does not know.” Jiang Yan this is the first time that listened to the father to explain the secret in this aspect seriously. At that moment the attitude is straighter, serious reply. “孩儿不知。”江严这还是第一次郑重的听父亲讲解这方面的隐秘。当下态度端正许多,郑重回答。 Jiang Donggui had not replied immediately. 江东归没有马上回答。 But arrives at the wall gradually in front of a black iron pole that takes root in the ground. „That is, Strength Force!” 而是缓步走到墙边一根扎根地面的黑色铁柱面前。“那便是,劲力！” Rustle! 唰！ In an instant, his right hand lightning springs, stroke of five fingers gently on arm thick iron pole. 刹那间,他右手闪电弹出,五指在手臂粗的铁柱上轻轻一划。 Silent, on the hard iron pole, had/left a deep finger mark impressively. 无声无息下,坚硬铁柱上,赫然多出了一道深深指痕。 In the noteless situation, he light/only delimits the finger mark with the finger on the hard iron pole unexpectedly!! 在毫无声音的情况下,他居然光用手指就在坚硬铁柱上划出指痕！！ The Jiang Yan heart with amazement, he never sees the father to show the strength before him thoroughly, he knows the father is very strong, but strong to what degree, did not have a concept. 江严心头骇然,他从未见过父亲在他面前彻底展现实力,他只是知道父亲很强,可到底强到什么程度,一直没有个概念。 Now, he truly is clear, compared with third degree qi and blood and two times, disparity big. 现在,他才真正明白,三次气血和二次相比,差距有多大。 He approaches, to put out a hand to stroke that finger mark quickly gently. 他快步走近,伸手轻轻抚摸那指痕。 At least one inch ( 2 cm ) depth! 至少有一寸(2cm)之深！ And the opening is smooth, cuts just like the blade. 且豁口光滑无比,宛如刀切。 If he has the full power, can achieve the bending iron pole reluctantly, but oneself instead will also be shaken the wound, was far from this effect difference. 他若是出全力,也能勉强做到打弯铁柱,但自身也会受反震伤,距离这种效果差远了。 „third degree qi and blood breaks through, must talent, the will, qi and blood reach the limit, can break open the shackles, steps into the new look.
