Martial Saint through Reading

Chapter 310: Chapter 263: Breakthrough to the Lower Realm! Wolf Map Blood Burning Technique! (Part 4)

A shadowy figure stood in the center of the tavern, remaining completely still.

For a long time.

Baili Xinghua slightly raised his arms, looking down.

"Is this your power?"

"Not enough... still not enough..."

The black aura churned, and the figure disappeared.

Next.

Shan County, Criminal Defense Bureau dungeon.

The Zhang Family members were imprisoned here, including the original Shan County Magistrate.

"Prison Chief Li, we’ve known each other for so many years, how can you not believe me? I really didn’t know the Blood Evil Church disguised themselves as Lord Tang."

"County Magistrate Zhang, there’s no use telling me this, I can’t make the decision. The lord from the Regent’s Mansion is conducting the interrogation outside; it was they who ordered your arrest."

"Then, Prison Chief Li, give me some water to drink. I’ve gone all day without drinking and I’m terribly thirsty."

"Someone, get the County Magistrate Zhang a cup of water."

"..."

The little official went out to get water.

"Ah——"

Followed immediately by a scream.

"This is a restricted area, who dares..."

Prison Chief Li had just turned around when he saw a fierce black aura surging in.

"Evil... spirit..."

"..."

The black aura swept through, leaving no survivors.

"Zhang Family... Tang Family... just wait for me..."

...

Chi’an County.

From Xirong County to the Qin Capital, you need to pass through three major counties; Chi’an County is the second major county located to the east of Pingzhong County.

Crossing Thousand Mile Mountain means entering the borders of Chi’an County.

Near dusk.

On the official road leading to the county city, three horses advanced, one in front and two behind.

"Senior Brother Chu, about that, I’m out of elixirs..." Jiang Zhan rode up to the front, rubbing his hands as he looked at Chu Ming.

Chu Ming turned his head expressionlessly, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

With a flick of his fingers, two bottles of elixirs flew out.

"Azure Ancient Yang Pill, seven pills per bottle. With your Middle Stage Refining Organ Realm qi and blood, you can refine at most one pill a day."

Chu Ming now somewhat regretted revealing his identity in front of Jiang Zhan.

Since the battle at Thousand Mile Mountain, Jiang Zhan’s ’true nature was revealed’.

A rare Martial Arts genius of Xirong County, a personal disciple accepted by the Commander of the Tiger Armor Army?

Indeed, those are Jiang Zhan’s titles, but they missed the most important point: Jiang Zhan is thick-skinned.

In just a day’s time from Thousand Mile Mountain to Chi’an County, this guy not only reclaimed the previously given elixirs but also got two extra bottles.

Under the pretext that brothers should support and help each other.

These elixirs, Chu Ming didn’t mind at all; back in Xirong County, he couldn’t even count the bottles of elixirs he had given to Little Shan, Shen Yu, The Medicine Maniac, and others.

He knew Jiang Zhan wasn’t being truly greedy; asking for elixirs was just this Martial Arts genius’s way of healing the wounds of his heart.

This Senior Brother’s protection along the first half of the journey was worth giving some elixirs.

"Thank you, my Senior Brother Chu." Jiang Zhan, grabbing the elixirs, couldn’t suppress his smile.

"By the way, these elixirs are quite potent. If too much medicinal power accumulates in your body, it will explode." Chu Ming stared at Jiang Zhan, "Just like that Buddha statue at Thousand Mile Mountain."

"..." Jiang Zhan’s expression slightly changed, "Don’t worry, Senior Brother Chu, I’m not that kind of greedy person."

Saying this, he rode over to Meng Zhen, tossing a bottle, "Here, Old Meng, Commander Meng, our Senior Brother Chu, Chu the great Meridian Unlocking Realm, Chu the super mighty one bestows this elixir."

Meng Zhen hurriedly caught it, cupping his hands in salute towards Chu Ming.

"This elixir is the Azure Ancient Yang Pill, highly potent. With your Refining Organ Realm strength, you can refine at most one pill a day; take too much, and your body will explode like the Buddha statue at Thousand Mile Mountain." Jiang Zhan said matter-of-factly.

Meng Zhen: "..."

Chu Ming: "..."

Jiang Zhan continued seriously, "I’ve been thinking the whole way."

"Thinking about what?" Meng Zhen asked.

"I’ve been wondering who is really the first Martial Arts genius of the Tiger Armor Army, me or Senior Brother Chu."

"..." Meng Zhen didn’t answer, but his eyes gave a response: isn’t it obvious? It’s definitely Chu Royal Attendant!

Jiang Zhan’s brows slightly relaxed, "Just now, I finally figured it out."

"I am still the first Martial Arts genius of the Tiger Armor Army."

Meng Zhen: "?"

"Because, my Senior Brother Chu is the first genius of the Great Qin Dynasty! Doesn’t that make me the first genius of the Tiger Armor Army?"

"..." Meng Zhen looked at Jiang Zhan, silently shaking his head.

A whole day, thinking all the way, just to figure this out?

It makes sense, but it’s quite a stretch.

"Commander Jiang, Commander Meng, we’re just two miles away from Chi’an County."

Chu Ming focused his gaze ahead, faintly seeing the city’s outline.

"I’ve been to Chi’an County before, I know of a good inn there, I’ll lead the way."

Jiang Zhan, quick to seize the moment, displayed his capabilities. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Entering the city, at night.

Five Lakes Inn.

Chu Ming sat cross-legged in the room, his eyes slightly closed, his heart spirit immersed in the Sea of Consciousness.

At the center of the Cultivation Technique Lake in the Sea of Consciousness, the twelfth small island gradually became substantial. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

At a certain moment, the qi and blood flowed smoothly through the Twelve Major Meridians, and Chu Ming felt a sense of thorough transparency in his body.

"Connected the Twelve Major Meridians, Upper Meridian Unlocking Realm... Perfection!"

Thick qi and blood started from his chest, converged at the crown point, then split into two and flowed down to his limbs and bones, finally returning to the chest.

He could clearly feel the explosive increase in his strength.

Upper Meridian Unlocking Realm Perfection, with qi and blood three times stronger, even without burning qi and blood, could now battle Lower Realm one or two meridian-opening experts.

After a few attempts at directing the flow of qi and blood, the joy at Chu Ming’s brow gradually faded away.

Upper Realm Perfection was not enough.

The heart spirit focused on the Cultivation Technique Lake, where a whirlpool formed around the twelve islands. At present, it barely emerged the fourth mouth, meaning his deduced cultivation technique could only currently connect up to the fourth meridian of the Lower Realm.

With a flip of his hand, he took out a bottle of Azure Ancient Juice, opened it, and swallowed it down, feeling the cooling sensation dissolve into his belly and convert into more Qi and Blood Power.

Chu Ming slightly adjusted his state, beginning to concentrate and gather Qi and Blood Power to impact the Eight Extraordinary Meridians.

Streams of vigorous qi and blood gathered, reaching a number of a hundred.

"Come on."

One hundred streams of Qi and Blood Power simultaneously impacted the first meridian of the Eight Extraordinary Meridians.
