"I could never be so cruel as to kill you!"
Qin Fang chuckled, looking nonchalant as he spoke.
"Didn't you notice? Despite so many of your subordinates being injured, none of them died... Isn't that proof of my rcy?"
Qin Fang even pointed at those Qingyi Iron Guards lying alongside Cao Yuan, smiling amiably. His deanor resembled that of a kind-hearted person... At least, the actions Qin Fang took had no trace of gore!
"Humph..."
However, Cao Yuan did not seem very appreciative.
Even as his gaze passed over those dozen Qingyi Iron Guards he had personally trained, showing a trace of comfort, it couldn't change his mind... So things, so secrets, must never be leaked.
"Give so face..."
Qin Fang seed utterly unconcerned by Cao Yuan's reaction, still politely advising...
"Stop wasting ti. Let's fight!"
Cao Yuan was far more resolute than Qin Fang anticipated. If he could do it himself, he might have already beco a corpse... At this mont, he could only place his hopes on Qin Fang. Song Yi and the others couldn't be depended upon.
Initially, Cao Yuan thought Qin Fang was just a petty sidekick or errand boy alongside Song Yi and the others, but after the crushing defeat, he realized that the unsettling young man's strength was terrifying beyond asure, and Song Yi and the others had a completely different attitude toward him.
It was not an attitude of equality, as if Song Yi and the others had beco servants, slaves, or errand boys...
To have Great Grandmaster Level experts as servants is not sothing ordinary people can achieve... Either this person's formidable strength reaches the Supre Realm or even higher, or this person has an extrely powerful background.
Qin Fang's strength exceeded Cao Yuan's, and naturally was stronger than Song Yi and the others, but not to a ridiculous extent... Thinking over, Cao Yuan believed Qin Fang probably ca from a very powerful faction!
And now they were in the Dragon Country, forrly the land of The Green Gang's disciples, but it had too many forces beyond their capacity to contend with, and there were several factions capable of training such formidable opponents, such as... Shaolin, Kunlun, and others!
No matter from which faction Qin Fang hailed, neither Cao Yuan nor the faction behind him could match it... To ensure the safety of the faction behind him, Cao Yuan chose death over leaking this secret.
ntal constructs can be terrifying at tis...
The less known sothing is, the more terrifying it becos when imagined; one unconsciously incorporates various elents, even if they are unrelated... Cao Yuan was now in such a situation.
His excessive imagination left his mind sowhat hazy.
This mont was the perfect opportunity for Qin Fang to exploit... Cao Yuan remained imrsed in his own imagination, unaware of the slight wicked smile on Qin Fang's lips as he began to take action.
Mind Reading Technique exerts its most terrifying power at such tis...
Under normal circumstances, Cao Yuan, as a Great Grandmaster Level expert, had an imnsely stable mind, and no matter how Qin Fang employed his Mind Reading Technique, he wouldn't be able to glean even a hint of secrecy. But now things were different, with Cao Yuan severely injured and on the brink of death, his mind existing in such a hazy state, the defense of his mind's shield fell to its lowest. How could Qin Fang miss this chance?
Thus, while Cao Yuan was enveloped in his imagination, Qin Fang was delving into the depths of Cao Yuan's mind for so secret matters, including so undisclosed secrets of The Green Gang and details related to this incident...
Including the whereabouts of Chen Lin and others...
Bzz~~
Of course, Cao Yuan was a Great Grandmaster Level expert, a brief mont of distraction was soon over, and when he set his mind on dying, his mind beca unbreakable once more, forcing Qin Fang's own mind to retreat.
At this ti, Song Yi and the others erged one after another from the camp, seemingly having scoured the entire camp.
"Young Master Qin, look at this..."
Song Yi and the others appeared sowhat dispirited as they erged, seemingly finding no valuable clues, their expressions a bit unnatural, yet they presented a cloth bag to Qin Fang.
Qin Fang paused, then opened the bag to take a look inside; it contained items like elixirs with weakened potency and similar things, likely taken from the Underground Palace.
However, what truly surprised Qin Fang was discovering a book inside...
"White Tiger Qi Cultivation Technique..."
Upon seeing this book, Qin Fang was taken aback for a mont.
He found three Qi cultivation techniques within the Underground Palace and then ventured into the deepest part of it, thinking he wouldn't have a chance to gather the other techniques. Unexpectedly, another book was found at the camp.
This brought a touch of surprise to Qin Fang...
"Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise... I've collected all Four Symbols now. I'm wondering if it holds so unknown secret!"
Perhaps to others, the four books all look the sa without revealing anything special. But Qin Fang has personally experienced the power and terror of the Azure Dragon Qi Cultivation Technique. Without its assistance, how could Qin Fang have refined his physical body to such a fearso degree or practice so intensely in the Spiritual Spring?
This Qi cultivation technique generates elental energy, which differs from the True Qi Qin Fang currently cultivates and the Gang Qi that Grandmaster-level experts progress into. However, its quality is undoubtedly much stronger and more terrifying...
Even when Qin Fang unleashes his full strength, he cannot move even a portion of the elental energy lurking inside him. His raging True Qi, when confronting the elental energy, seems like an ant before a mountain, utterly powerless!
"Perhaps when I step into the Supre Realm... I'll be able to wield this elental energy?"
Discovering this issue, Qin Fang couldn't help but speculate.
Though his cultivation hasn't formally reached the Great Grandmaster level, his combat power rivals the Great Grandmaster Mid Stage. Otherwise, he couldn't have blown apart the Grandmaster-level expert Cao Yuan in a direct confrontation!
With such power, he still can't move the elental energy. Within the Great Grandmaster Realm, it's likely impossible to use, leaving only the hope of the Supre Realm.
The fact that only the Supre Realm can barely deploy such elental energy speaks volus about its terrifying nature.
Through practicing the Azure Dragon Qi Cultivation Technique, Qin Fang has already cultivated elental energy at the Grandmaster level, giving him an early advantage over others... Surely, that's a trendous edge for him!
Now, having collected all four Qi techniques, Qin Fang begins to harbor other thoughts.
"Oh, can the White Tiger Qi Cultivation Technique also be practiced?"
Thinking about this, Qin Fang couldn't help but glance at the White Tiger Qi Cultivation Technique. To his surprise, he discovers that he can indeed cultivate it... at least it clearly indicates "cultivable."
With this thought, Qin Fang imdiately takes out the Black Tortoise Qi Cultivation Technique and Vermilion Bird Qi Cultivation Technique from the Props Box...
The Black Tortoise Qi Cultivation Technique remains unchanged, still unsuitable for his constitution,
whereas the Vermilion Bird Qi Cultivation Technique appears sowhat peculiar—it neither indicates unsuitability to his constitution nor displays "cultivable," giving a vague impression... Qin Fang finds it quite bewildering.
Buzz~~~
Then, Qin Fang retrieves the Azure Dragon Qi Cultivation Technique. When all four techniques are brought together, the Azure Dragon Vital Energy cultivated by Qin Fang becos restless, seeming to be enveloped by a mysterious force around the four books.
Hiss~~~
To Qin Fang's astonishnt, the White Tiger Qi Cultivation Technique suddenly vibrates, and a stream of light swiftly integrates into Qin Fang's body, penetrating to the depths of his inner core... it mingles with the Azure Dragon Vital Energy and quickly condenses into a cluster of elental energy!
This is a small cluster of elental energy, distinctly different from the Azure Dragon Vital Energy—clearly demarcated... Though it's small, it's extrely resilient, surviving under the imnse pressure of the Azure Dragon Vital Energy, seemingly contending equally with it!
Hiss~~
Even more bizarre, the Vermilion Bird Qi Cultivation Technique, previously silent, now flickers with a hint of fiery-red light, similarly infiltrating Qin Fang's body... soon taking root in his Dantian.
However, it appears much weaker, just a tiny fla. Not only does it pale compared to the Azure Dragon Vital Energy, it even falls short against the newly born White Tiger Pri Energy!
"Why is this?"
Such a discovery brings a question to Qin Fang's mind.
All four are part of the Four Symbols Qi Cultivation Techniques. Why are the Azure Dragon and White Tiger techniques easily cultivated, while the Vermilion Bird seems peculiar but at least its small fla indicates its presence?
Yet only the Black Tortoise Qi Cultivation Technique remains motionless, still marked as "attribute not compatible," which is truly mysterious...
He vaguely feels there might be so undisclosed connection here, but despite Qin Fang's careful contemplation, he still can't grasp the clue!
"Can it be that the Four Symbols Qi Cultivation Techniques form a single entity, not necessarily practiced separately, but also together? Perhaps the unified Four Symbols is their most terrifying form!" In fact, there's no need for speculation; considering the ford Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Vermilion Bird Elental Energies, it's likely feasible!
What truly frustrates Qin Fang is that it seems the Four Symbols Elental Energy is missing one... preventing his conjecture from materializing, hindering him from delving deeper! (To be continued.
