362: Chapter 359: Black Forest Auction 362: Chapter 359: Black Forest Auction “Yes, it’s now.
Of course, if you have any problems, then forget it, as if I never said anything!” Li Chen shrugged his shoulders, with an indifferent look.
“No, no, no problem, Immortal Master Li, what should I do?” i Ruohua was still sowhat dazed, shaking her head repeatedly.
Li Chen said, “There’s nothing to do, just close your eyes and empty your mind!”
i Ruohua nodded her head like a pecking chicken, replying, “Okay!”
After i Ruohua closed her eyes, Li Chen silently gathered his True Yuan, concentrating it on the index finger of his left hand.
“I’m starting now; it might be a bit painful, just bear with it!”
With those words, Li Chen pointed his finger at i Ruohua’s brow, channeling his True Yuan into her Dantian.
Suddenly, i Ruohua felt as if her head were about to explode, the pain was unbearable.
However, she kept gritting her teeth, forcibly enduring this intolerable pain.
Beads of sweat, the size of soybeans, seeped out from her pale forehead and fell to the ground with a plop.
i Jiuling, who was beside her, looked on worriedly, but dared not make any noise, for fear of accidentally disturbing Li Chen and his granddaughter i Ruohua.
“Now, I’m imparting wisdom to you, rise!”
Li Chen thundered, and i Ruixia’s body slowly levitated into the air following the guidance of his hand gestures.
Li Chen flipped his palm, and three gleaming silver needles shot out from between his fingers, striking i Ruohua’s Xuanji Acupoint, Tianling Acupoint, and Tiandu Acupoint respectively.
With each needle, there was a heart-piercing surge of acute pain.
i Ruohua’s consciousness also gradually slipped into unconsciousness.
Yet, even so, she was relying on her last instinctive awareness to endure it all.
One needle!
Two needles!
Three needles!
…
After Li Chen inserted the thirteenth needle, which was also the last one, i Ruohua couldn’t bear it any longer and let out a painful scream.
“Ah!”
“Alright, now for the final step, to connect the ridians and help you break through the Life and Death Mysterious Gate!”
While speaking, Li Chen pressed his hands together, and his True Yuan flowed into the palm of his hands like a converging myriad of streams.
In that instant, i Ruohua’s body began to undergo noticeable changes.
The violent True Yuan burst forth in an instant.
Then, i Ruohua felt like an empty balloon released from mid-air, plumting down.
Li Chen was quick to react and caught her in his arms.
“It’s done, a great success!”
i Ruohua looked at Li Chen’s sharply contoured side face, barely squeezing out a smile: “Thank you!”
“No need to thank , this is what you deserve.
Your True Yuan has been drained by , your body will be a little weak.
Take this pill, and after resting for half an hour, you’ll be fine!”
As he spoke, Li Chen handed a Gathering Spirit Pill to i Ruohua.
After a mont of hesitation, i Ruohua took the Gathering Spirit Pill and placed it into her mouth.
i Jiuling was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, his head covered in sweat.
Yet he didn’t dare to rashly ask Li Chen and could only pace back and forth outside.
Li Chen was calmly enjoying his tea, as if nothing had happened.
About twenty minutes later, i Ruohua slowly got up.
She was amazed to find that she had indeed broken through the Life and Death Mysterious Gate and advanced to the Transformation Realm.
In the hands of others, an impossible task becos child’s play for Li Chen.
Even after experiencing it firsthand, i Ruohua still finds it hard to believe.
i Jiuling was utterly in awe of Li Chen’s miraculous abilities, prostrating himself with the utmost respect and repeatedly thanking him.
Li Chen waved his hand and said, “It’s just a small effort; no need to thank .
I’ll give you one day to prepare.
This ti tomorrow, we’ll set out for the black forest!”
…
The black forest is located in a triangular area bordering Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos, notorious for its long-term opium production.
Since this place is at the junction of three countries, it falls under no one’s jurisdiction.
Coupled with its treacherous mountains and obstructed terrain, various warlords, criminal organizations, and wanted fugitives from various countries all flock here.
In short, this place is Satan’s holand, a paradise for criminals.
For this very reason, so unsavory transactions often take place here.
On the rugged mountain path, a Humr SUV was slowly driving along.
The driver was a beautiful girl, and beside her on the passenger seat, a young man was resting with his eyes closed.
Naturally, they were i Ruohua and Li Chen.
i Ruohua glanced ahead and carefully said to Li Chen, “Young Master, we’ve reached the vicinity of the black forest.
There’s a checkpoint ahead.
Should we take a detour?”
Li Chen slowly opened his eyes and said indifferently, “No need.
We’ve got all the necessary docunts and procedures; there’s no need to take a detour.
Just drive straight through!”
“Okay!” i Ruohua responded and, following Li Chen’s instructions, continued to drive forward.
The checkpoint was located at a narrow passage between two mountains, with wooden fencing in front and stone defensive structures behind.
There were ten visible guards and five hidden ones, equipped with both light and heavy weaponry, making the security extrely tight.
Seeing this, i Ruohua started to have her doubts.
“Strange, in the past, there were only four or five people at this checkpoint.
Why are there three tis as many today?”
Li Chen also sharply sensed that sothing was amiss.
After scanning his surroundings and ensuring there was no other danger, he gestured for i Ruohua to drive straight through.
i Ruohua nodded and directed the Humr SUV towards the checkpoint.
Two burly n in olive-green uniforms, carrying rifles, walked over.
“Stop the car and submit to inspection!”
i Ruohua slowly stopped the vehicle and handed over the passports, along with the relevant identification.
The leader was a man with a full beard.
He took the docunts and carefully inspected them, asking, “You are from Hua Country.
What brings you to the black forest?”
i Ruohua replied, “Business!”
The man with the beard asked, “What business?”
i Ruohua glanced at Li Chen and said, “Jade and gemstones!”
After saying this, without waiting for further questioning, she preemptively asked, “Is there a problem with our docunts?”
The bearded man shook his head and said, “No problem with the docunts.
However, it’s a critical mont for the Black Forest Auction, and anyone who enters must pay to purchase a pass certificate to gain entry!”
i Ruohua asked, “How much?”
The bearded man saw that there were only two of them and they were driving a latest-model Humr worth three million.
Thinking it a pri opportunity to fleece them, he demanded a hefty sum, “One hundred thousand per person!”
i Ruohua scoffed, “One hundred thousand per person, why don’t you just rob us?”
The man with the beard said, “Can’t help it.
It’s a critical period for the Black Forest Auction.
Without a pass certificate, you can hardly move a step in the black forest!”
“Considering this miss, you are so beautiful, I can give you a discount and take 20% off.
Just 160,000 for the two of you, how about that?”
i Ruohua wanted to say more, but Li Chen stopped her with a look.
Li Chen simply took out a check for five hundred thousand and passed it through the car window.
“I’ll give you five hundred thousand.
Tell everything about the Black Forest Auction!”
…
