Black Mountain Yan!
"Golden Lock Jade Technique?"
Jixia passively caught the jade slip that Xie Wutong tossed over.
When he recognized the appearance of this jade slip, identical to the one that Tantai Yao had given him, which recorded the ’teor Chasing Moon Fist Scripture’ in his past mories.
He knew at once, the grade of this item is undoubtedly extraordinary!
In the world of cultivation, martial arts and divine techniques are considered ’external skills’, used to protect oneself in cultivation.
Whereas the thods of refining inner power are the foundation of all foundations, the root of all origins!
A martial artist nourishes qi and blood like a furnace, refining their body into a ’tripod furnace’,
so that secret recipes such as treasure dicines, demon blood, and great pills are transford into a great supplent, filling within,
then extending with martial arts to manifest an extraordinary ’martial form’, to achieve the might of burning mountains and boiling seas, bearing the sun and pushing the mountain, comparable to immortal gods!
Just as the saying goes, a tall building rises from the ground up.
To reach this mythic level, initially, one needs a ’key’.
This key is not martial arts, nor treasure dicines, nor any secret prescriptions like ’White-Eyebrowed Monkey Brain’,
because these are all extensions.
The most fundantal, forever, is...
Law!
A law that can reach ’Martial Gate Foundation Establishnt’!
Since ancient tis, cultivating nature without cultivating life is the first disease of cultivation, martial arts and techniques are inseparable, only practicing fists, not practicing law, leads to nothing in old age!
What Jixia heard is that the cultivation he could access, only had the first step ’Martial Gate Foundation Establishnt’, and the second step ’Great Innate Stage’.
But he knew nothing about the states and key points within.
The only thing he knew is, achieving the realm of refining the surface tendons and veins, blood and marrow refining, achieving ’Golden Flesh and Jade Veins, rcury Blood Silver Marrow’, ans one can beco an Outer City constable, a gang leader!
Higher up ’Water and Fire Immortal Robe, Circulation Qi Collection’, those are for the Governnt Office Head, renowned figures of Inner City!
As for ’Great Innate Stage’?
Only four big words!
Immortal Among n!
It is said their martial arts can already evolve scenes similar to a ’mirage’, and can manifest ’reality’, used to control and capture enemies, each one... is a formidable expert that can dominate a city!
Only the soldiers of Inner City, Second Demon Hunting Departnt, Martial Arts Hall Master, Noble Clan Leader type,
have so touched this level.
Why did Jixia, at first, rack his brains, try every ans, just to earn the na of ’constable’ and join the Black Mountain Yan, becoming soone of the governnt office?
Because once registered officially, not only does one gain the qualification to practice governnt office martial arts, but also receives a standard ’dicated bath’, and a ’Martial Gate Foundation Establishnt’ secret thod!
Even if this thod, might be crude, might be of low grade, might not even achieve higher realms.
But after all...
It is also a key to stepping into the ’extraordinary’ door!
The result that Jixia did not expect was.
An unknown girl, with bright eyes and white teeth, seemingly even under twenty, in terms of age, surprisingly younger than himself...
casually tossed a ’jade slip’ that recorded a secret thod!
"This..."
No rit, no reward.
Unless it’s too hot to handle.
Jixia was more than shocked, although reluctant, he still wanted to open his mouth to decline.
In the cycle of mories, Tantai Yao and Song Chai Xin’s birth mother ’Xie Wei’, were peers at the Zither Sword Pavilion, and Xie Wei’s deep affection led to the gift of ’famous family’ level martial arts, which was understandable.
But why this girl?
He punched Jiang Zhou, venting the frustration of almost being buried in the belly of a forest beast, it was indeed satisfying, but he didn’t want to fall into soone else’s sche for no reason.
But the girl in ’Demon Hunting Bureau Uniform’, with heroic brows and a radiant spirit, after tossing the inheritance, had no intention of lingering here, not even wanting to engage more with him.
By the ti Jixia ca to his senses, she had already taken quick steps towards the threshold.
To Jixia’s vocal protest, Xie Wutong just turned back, giving a seemingly aningful smile,
then raised her hand, shaking the ’Demon Hunting Order’ in her hand:
"I, this girl, am nad ’Xie Wutong’, Copper Seal Patrol of Black Mountain Demon Hunting Departnt!"
"If you wish to see , then strive to cultivate well."
"Soday, if you achieve Golden Flesh and Jade Veins, rcury Blood Silver Marrow, don a ’Water and Fire Immortal Robe’, and can stomp three tis in this Black Mountain Outer City..."
"I can recomnd you to enter the ’Black Mountain Demon Hunting Departnt’!"
"Then I’ll tell you why I passed on this volu of ’Golden Lock Jade Technique’ to you."
With those words, she disappeared without a trace.
Leaving Jixia holding the jade slip, in deep thought, having so insight, yet unsure, he turned and kept this matter at heart.
Today he entered the yan threshold, aiming to rely on ’fist mastery’, directly alert the Departnt Head, and bring the feud with ’Jiang Zhou’ to light, with thunderous montum, to completely shatter his sches!
Already registered, obstructed by others, comncing cultivation?
So what!
The already fainted Jiang Zhou on the ground proved that Jixia’s plan went off without a hitch!
The only interlude was the young girl who ca like the wind and rain and left like dust.
Who...
exactly is she?
Perhaps...
Before Jixia could think any further.
A loud laugh already ca from behind him:
"Truly heroes erge young!"
"Mastery in boxing, defeating the half-Step Foundation Establishnt martial artists bathing in dicinal baths, in ’mortal flesh’..."
"Even twenty-three years ago, when that ’Great Innate’ left this place, he did not have your strength at that ti!"
"This Departnt Head doesn’t have many hobbies, just likes to get to know so enterprising martial heroes."
"From now on, if there are no outsiders, you may associate with as an equal!"
Pa!
After Xie Wutong left, Chen Zhenwu quickly walked to Jixia’s side and, without saying anything, put his arm around Jixia’s shoulders.
"Sir..."
Jixia hesitated a bit, but the person in front of him raised his eyebrows and hardened his face:
"What, could it be that you think the Black Mountain Departnt Head is unworthy of a genius like you?"
With that accusation, Jixia was dizzy, forcing a couple of smiles, not daring to deliberately avoid it.
What a joke.
He is now a Black Mountain ’constable.’
But the man in front of him is the Black Mountain ’Departnt Head!’
Officials are part of the system, but not in the mainstream.
As for Chen Zhenwu, he has entered the Great Zhao official registry, a genuine ’graded’ official!
Just like the large gap between civil registry and official registry.
The difference between official registry and staff registry is even greater, one in the heavens, one underground.
The Black Mountain Departnt Head lowers himself to make friends with him, how would he dare refuse?
And this matter might not be without benefits.
Thinking of this, Jixia’s gaze drifted, unintentionally glancing at Liu Tieyi, Squad Leader Liu, whose face was expressionless, not knowing what he was pondering.
This person is staunchly supporting Jiang Zhou, and for a fleeting mont, Jixia detected a touch of ’malice’ from him.
Though he couldn’t be sure,
if he could have the ’Departnt Head’ as a backing...
A squad leader, in this Black Mountain Governnt Office, how could he openly trouble him anymore?
When Chen Zhenwu sensed Jixia’s shoulders relax and releasing goodwill, he grinned, nodded in satisfaction, and turned his authoritative gaze toward the back:
"Squad Leader Liu."
"The Governnt Office ’dicinal bath,’ boxing manuals, secret techniques, those matters should fall under your responsibility, right?"
"Then later you will take Jixia to choose one, rember not to ’neglect,’ for this is standard equipnt!"
He emphasized the words and continued:
"Oh yes!"
"Have Jiang Zhou put in prison; without my written orders, he’ll stay there."
"Additionally, I heard..."
"This ti, when you recruited people from outside, you used ’spirit creature’ bodies as rewards; so spirit creatures are full of treasures. Since they were hunted and acquired by others, naturally we shouldn’t embezzle what’s on them."
"At that ti, just give it all to him."
Chen Zhenwu’s words were delivered casually.
Listening, Liu Tieyi’s forehead veins tightened.
If his mind wasn’t disciplined, he might have burst into curses.
You are proud, you are impressive!
In three years, you, Chen Zhenwu, are about to report to ’Wutong Prefecture,’ ready for promotion.
At this mont, with people from the ’Xie Family’ at Wutong Prefecture appearing, you see an opportunity, want to sell smooth favors, form connections, to prepare for the future.
This is understandable.
But...
Damn, you take my advantages to sell your favors?
Where were your Departnt Head’s majesty and intervention for those many constables before?
Deeply unwilling in his heart.
But looking at the person before him with the ’Departnt Head’ robe, Liu Tieyi’s eyes showed desire, even if unwilling, he could only forcefully endure.
Forget it, the situation is stronger than man.
Endure a little longer...
There will be opportunities!
"Departnt Head, I understand."
