Grinding to the Martial Sage from the White Ape Fist Chapter 233 - 231: Breakthrough to Perfection

In the Martial Arts Arena.

Su Yu’s figure blurred into a shadowy black afterimage.

Every ti he stepped, a dull boom exploded from the hard ground.

This wasn’t just physical strength, but the high-speed churning of his Qi and Blood. The muscle fibers in his legs stretched and contracted violently. With every change in direction, he left a visible white wake in the air.

’My legs really have changed!’

Su Yu stopped and carefully felt the subtle changes in the circulation of Qi and Blood in his legs.

Ever since drinking the ancient wine from the treasure gourd, his legs had been tempered by Thunder Power, making his muscles and bones incredibly tough. Not only did his Qi and Blood flow without the slightest obstruction, but when he exerted force, he felt a lightness as if he were riding the wind and commanding the thunder.

Ink-wash characters slowly materialized in his vision.

’The Skill Level I gain from each practice session has increased too,’ Su Yu’s eyes brightened. ’This ans the foundation of my legs has been elevated, and my body is now in perfect harmony with the true essence of this Body Technique.’

His anticipation for the treasure gourd’s abilities grew. If it could truly brew wines with special effects, then he would have truly obtained an ancient, wondrous treasure!

[Seven Fiends Thunder Collapse Step has broken through to the Perfection Realm]

’Finally, Perfection!’

Looking at the stationary ink-wash characters before him, a grin touched Su Yu’s lips. This movent technique had accompanied him through countless life-and-death battles since he acquired it, and today, it was finally complete.

’Ti to test the effects of Perfection!’

With a thought, Qi and Blood instantly surged through the Yongquan Acupoints on the soles of his feet, and he instinctively took a step forward.

This ti, there was no violent wake, no deafening boom. His body simply lifted off the ground out of thin air!

In an instant, he crossed a distance of dozens of yards, arriving silently in the Inner Courtyard.

With another flicker, the tip of his toe tapped the surface of the lotus pond, causing the water to dip slightly and sending out fine ripples.

Compared to the previous spectacle of roaring Qi and Blood and roiling air currents, the Perfection Realm allowed him to control his movents and their resulting noise at will!

Su Yu’s figure flickered continuously, and like a phantom, he landed back in the front courtyard’s Martial Arts Arena, his eyes filled with pleasant surprise.

’This movent technique has undergone another qualitative transformation at Perfection!’

’My speed has doubled! At my current top speed, even the Qi and Blood burst of a late-stage Flesh Refining Realm expert couldn’t possibly keep up. I can even match the speed of a master at Flesh Refining Realm Perfection!’

Su Yu walked to the side of the well, took a damp towel from a bucket of water to wipe the sweat from his brow, and then summoned his panel to check his status.

[Martial Arts]: Shaking Mountain Demon Ape Fist (Minor Achievent 1400/7000)

[Martial Arts]: Spiritual Ape Demon-Slaying Saber (First Layer) (Great Achievent 3000/10000)

[Martial Arts]: Bibo Fish Dragon Skill (First Layer) (Great Achievent 1/3000)

[Martial Arts]: Lingxi Beast Taming Technique (Great Achievent 852/1000)

[Breakthrough Points]: 0 (Progress 96%)

’The Seven Fiends Thunder Collapse Step now ets the conditions for Breaking Limits. The only thing I’m missing is Breakthrough Points.’

A thoughtful look appeared in Su Yu’s eyes as he mulled over his next training plan.

The later stages of Martial Arts cultivation grew increasingly difficult, with bottlenecks like impassable chasms.

But thanks to his panel, he could grind his way to Perfection and then Break the Limit without any obstacles. Over ti, the gap between him and ordinary geniuses would only widen, until they were left completely in his dust.

’Next, I’ll use a regular saber to grind up the Skill Level for the Spiritual Ape Demon-Slaying Saber. Also, it’s about ti I looked for a new Cultivation Technique.’

...

「In the afternoon, the sun was just right.」

Su Yu was enjoying a rare mont of leisure, leaning back in a wicker chair in the courtyard, leisurely sipping Yun Jin spirit tea while occasionally giving Yang Zhen pointers on refining his Qi and Blood.

Yang Zhen’s talent was exceptional after awakening his Spirit Body. With the nurous resources Su Yu provided, he was already preparing to break through to his Second Acupoint. Such progress in Martial Arts was outstanding even among geniuses.

"Zhen’Er, how are Yang Ai’s preparations coming along?" Su Yu asked after taking a sip of tea.

Yang Zhen relaxed his stance and wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead. "Brother Su, my sister has everything ready. She’s just waiting for the right mont to break through to the Martial Artist realm."

Su Yu nodded.

’Looks like that little girl Yang Ai has really settled down. She’s been behaving herself lately and hasn’t run over to the Su Mansion for a while.’

’Still, for sothing like breaking through a realm, external help is only an aid. Whether she can cross that threshold ultimately depends on her own fate.’

"Sir, the Qian Family sent a ssenger. They say Miss Qian invites you to their residence for a eting," the butler, Li Da, reported respectfully from outside the courtyard gate.

"Understood."

Su Yu set down his teacup.

’For Qinghong to suddenly seek out, it must be for sothing important.’

"Zhen’Er, I’m heading to the Qian Family’s estate. You keep practicing."

Su Yu stood, stretched comfortably, and strode toward the mansion’s main gate.

Behind him, Yang Zhen watched Su Yu’s upright back, a trace of confusion in his wide eyes. ’Brother Su’s steps seem particularly light. Is he in a good mood?’

...

「Qian Family, Front Courtyard.」

"HAHAHAHA, Brother Su!"

Qian Wenhao’s bell-like laughter carried from a distance. He strode forward and clapped Su Yu firmly on the shoulder. "It’s only been about a month, but your reputation in Black Stone City has soared once again. It’s enough to make anyone envious."

Su Yu smiled calmly. "Brother Qian, you flatter . Do you know why Qinghong asked to see today?"

"Let’s go. We’ll talk in the young miss’s study in the Inner Courtyard. She’s been waiting for you."

Qian Wenhao led Su Yu through a long corridor. Just as they stepped through the Inner Courtyard’s Moon Gate, they ca face-to-face with that Tributor from the Zhao Family, Zhao Gaolang.

The man was sprawled arrogantly in a Grandmaster’s Chair by the Martial Arts Arena. Two pretty maids flanked him; one fanned him while the other peeled grapes and fed them into his mouth. He was putting on quite a show.

Qian Wenhao’s brow furrowed at the sight, and he quickened his pace.

Su Yu’s expression remained neutral. He didn’t even lift an eyelid as he walked straight past.

Zhao Gaolang spat out a grape seed, his sinister gaze fixed on Su Yu’s back, killing intent surging in his eyes.

’This damn brat. His fa has been unrivaled since the Dinglong Association. Is he here at the Qian Family estate to back Qian Qinghong?’

’So what if he’s a genius? He’s still just in the mid-stage of the Flesh Refining Realm. If he dares to ddle in the Qian Family’s affairs, he can’t bla for being ruthless!’

Before long, the two of them arrived outside the study. Qian Wenhao stepped forward and knocked. "Miss, Brother Su is here."

"Co in."

Qian Qinghong’s clear voice ca from inside, followed imdiately by a slightly languid female voice. "Oh, Qinghong, you invited another distinguished guest?"

Pushing the door open, Su Yu looked up to see Qian Qinghong sitting behind a large desk, chatting and laughing with a woman in the guest seat opposite her. The atmosphere seed quite congenial.

"Brother Su, I’ve been waiting for you."

A flash of delight crossed Qian Qinghong’s eyes when she saw Su Yu enter. She rose to greet him without any hesitation, slapping him familiarly on the shoulder.

This rather bold and intimate gesture made the woman opposite them glance over, a hint of probing curiosity in her eyes.

Su Yu glanced at the woman as well. He seed to recall seeing her in the Dai Family’s pavilion at the Dinglong Association. She was probably one of Dai Xing’s sisters.

She was lounging languidly on a soft couch draped with a snow fox pelt. A sea-green, light gauze dress was draped loosely over her body, outlining her voluptuous curves.

The woman was exquisitely beautiful, with an air of innate languor about her. Her erald-green eyes were like a deep, green pool.
