Chapter 23: Qi Yuan, Willing to Help Demons
Aunt Qin started by trying to do push-ups.
She carried the ladder and bent down.
Her palms touched the ground, and she felt there was nothing mystical about it.
"Perhaps... he's just making it up?"
With this thought, Aunt Qin began to do push-ups.
It must be said that someone wearing silk clothes doing push-ups looked quite out of place.
Within less than a breath, Aunt Qin was about to complete one push-up.
Aunt Qin initially had a helpless smile because she didn't feel any operation of cultivation techniques or true essence during the push-up.
Without these, how could one become stronger?
But in the next moment, just as she completed one push-up, a special change came instantly.
Jin Li hurriedly asked, "Aunt Qin, how do you feel?"
At this moment, Aunt Qin was completely stunned.
"I... I feel... my body seems to have become stronger."
"What?" Everyone present exclaimed.
Could it be that exercising really could make one stronger?
"How much stronger?" Hua Xian asked quickly.
She feared Aunt Qin was considering Jin Li's status as the empress and thus gave a vague answer.
Aunt Qin then said seriously, "Just one push-up is equivalent to half an hour of my cultivation."
"What!" Everyone present was shocked.
One push-up equaled half an hour of cultivation.
Isn't that too exaggerated?
"Doesn't this mean that doing less than ten thousand push-ups is equivalent to a year's cultivation?" Hua Xian calculated and was immediately astonished.
"If it's true, then cultivating here for one day would be equivalent to ten years outside?"
Everyone was incredibly shocked.
Doing push-ups could enhance cultivation?
What kind of principle is this?
How could such a thing exist!
It's simply incomprehensible!
It's like saying that eating, drinking, or even farting could breakthrough cultivation.
While everyone was amazed and puzzled, they all began to exercise.
So, these thirty loyal followers all started exercising with ladders on their backs in the Xuan Yuan Forbidden Land.
They were all cultivators, powerful, and did push-ups very quickly, "lying down" as if flying.
This scene was extremely shocking.
If people from Qi Yuan's previous world saw this, they would definitely shout, "Awesome!"
Of course, if a video were posted, the comments would be "Not a big deal," "I could do that too," "I have a friend who...".
After all, the comment section is where all kinds of geniuses and experts gather.
"I... broke through!"
Aunt Qin also solemnly said, "To die for Your Majesty, we have no regrets!"
Seeing this, Jin Li felt touched but also found it a bit funny, "The side effects aren't that terrible, it won't kill you all."
Everyone felt relieved.
The commander of the imperial guards, Hua Xian, looked at Jin Li and slowly asked, "May I ask what the side effects are?"
"Getting stronger... might cause hair loss."
"Hair loss?"
"Just hair loss?"
"That's it?"
Everyone was shocked.
Shocked that... that's it?
With such a great enhancement, the side effect is just losing hair.
Not to mention hair loss, in Nan Qian Country, some people even castrated themselves to practice evil arts for strength.
Compared to that, what is hair loss?
Nothing at all!
A woman who had just broken through a major stage smiled, "I lost a dozen hairs when I broke through earlier. I didn't know the reason, turns out it was this."
Not to mention losing a dozen hairs, even if all the hair on their bodies fell out, they would still be willing to break through a major stage.
At this moment, a bald female guard suddenly said, "I don't have any hair... what will fall out?"
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.
...
Time flew by.
Qi Yuan hunted demonic monsters again.
Now, through his efforts, he was already at level 88.
He killed a demonic monsters with one sword strike.
Unfortunately, these demonic monsters couldn't speak and didn't scream.
Suddenly, Qi Yuan's expression changed dramatically.
"So painful!"
He screamed, his face showing pain as he held his stomach, "My body is... being cut apart."
But soon, seeing the demonic monsters completely shattered, he showed a smug smile.
"I'm such a nice guy."
"Seeing you can't talk, I specially did the voice acting for you."
"Today, I'll be a voice actor for a day."
Saying this, he charged at the demonic monsters again with his sword.
"Strong Sword Skull Split!"
"No!"
"Xiao Xiang Sword Rain!"
"So painful!"
"Dragon Spin!"
"Ah!"
