"First place, Iron Fist."
Suddenly, this provoked intense discussions on the forums.
All were in praise.
The most exaggerated aspect was Iron Fist’s disclosed combat achievents.
They were all directed against the Lu Family.
Just when everyone thought Iron Fist secured the first place and wouldn’t update his achievents, another line popped up at the bottom—
"Killed 50 core disciples of the Lu Family in the Law Enforcent Hall!"
From there on, the majority of comnts on any forum were strings of 6s.
...
anwhile.
Fang Yu, seeing his ranking finally reach the top spot, nodded in satisfaction.
"This Mo Chengkong really knows his stuff. With just Wu Deqiu alone, it’s absolutely impossible for him to seize the first place so dominantly; there must be other hidden achievents."
Right after he finished speaking, his phone chid with a notification.
Hmm?
He picked up the phone and saw a new alert added below his own combat power ranking—
"Mo Chengkong is challenging the ranking, ti limit: seven days."
...
Dark Web internal forum.
"Holy shit! This Mo Chengkong is challenging my idol’s ranking!"
"Dammit, he even dares to challenge our Dark Web’s ranking, is he tired of living?"
"This guy is no simple character, considering Iron Fist’s achievents, his ability to snatch the first place shows he is formidable!"
"Scared? My ass. I believe in Iron Fist!"
"We must support Iron Fist!"
"Take him down!"
Despite saying so.
As mbers of the Dark Web and Martial Artists themselves, they clearly understand that in the competition between experts, even a small difference can an life or death.
Mo Chengkong’s challenge undoubtedly pushed the battle for the rankings into a feverish phase.
At the sa ti, many were guessing who exactly this Mo Chengkong was? Why had they never heard of him before, and he suddenly erged from nowhere?
Fear is often derived from the unknown.
Mystery often connotes profundity.
...
Fang Yu closed his phone and whispered with a laugh: "This Mo Chengkong is really getting into it."
"He was able to kill Wu Deqiu, indicating he must be at least at the Innate level... Finally, it’s a bit of a challenge."
After saying this, Fang Yu took out another Brocade Box from his pocket.
This was the other half of the Black Wood Lotus.
After pondering for a mont, Fang Yu decided to save a piece for ergencies in case there would be sothing better to replace it in the future. Then there would be no rush to use it.
He pinched off a corner from the Black Wood Lotus and placed it back into the Brocade Box.
The remaining part was about as big as half a fist.
"Hope it’s effective."
The first ti he consud the Black Wood Lotus was rely to test it; the following several tis he divided it up, and the dosage wasn’t that large.
This ti, Fang Yu decided to use almost half of the Black Wood Lotus for Cultivation.
Following that, Fang Yu took out the Black Wood Lotus and imdiately popped it into his mouth.
With a practiced hand and plenty of experience—
He straightaway mobilized his Inner Essence to shatter the Black Wood Lotus.
The Black Wood Lotus, turned into powder, dissolved upon entering his mouth.
In an instant—
His entire body felt blisteringly hot.
The trendous dicinal effect of the Black Wood Lotus was like gasoline poured on flas, causing his Inner Essence to erupt volcanically.
During his breathing cyles, the Inner Essence in his Dantian reached saturation.
"Too exhilarating!"
Fang Yu shouted loudly and without hesitation mobilized his Inner Essence for a "Dragon Transformation!"
Buzz————
A Golden Dragon imdiately appeared, circling around him.
Constantly absorbing Inner Essence from his entire body.
The Mandala pendant on his chest also beca restless and fluttered back and forth.
"Inhale!"
The Golden Dragon, resembling a bamboo pole, began to spiral and pull in essence.
The dragon’s head appeared.
The Inner Essence poured into it, like water flowing into fields, nourishing the entire Golden Dragon.
"The dicinal effect is still fierce; I’m going to see to what extent you can grow!"
As expected...
Under continuous absorption of Inner Essence, the radiance of the Golden Dragon beca brighter.
Its body also grew increasingly sturdy.
What surprised Fang Yu was—
Even the color was changing towards a red gold hue.
"Red gold color... it seems like the Golden Dragon has evolved!" Fang Yu’s eyes shone with excitent, it wasn’t a pointless endeavor after all!
...
anwhile.
Inside the Ye Family villa.
Ye Wenjun was still watching television.
She glanced indifferently at the traditional Chinese dicine on the table, thought for a mont, and then said to the maid in the room: "Prepare this herbal dicine according to the prescription, once daily."
"Yes!" The maid took the dicine and went to prepare it.
Two hours later.
The herbal dicine was ready.
When the maid brought it over, a fresh fragrance filled the air.
"This guy, he really didn’t deceive ," Ye Wenjun thought to herself with delight.
She took the dicine and slowly drank it all, not leaving a single drop.
She knew these were precious dicinal materials, beneficial for the Dantian, and naturally, they couldn’t be wasted.
After drinking, she felt a warm sensation in her Dantian.
"Wenjun."
Ye Xingkong walked in.
"Dad."
"Co on, your old man is bored today, I’ll review the Ye Family’s sword moves with you," Ye Xingkong said excitedly.
"Dad, we’ve practiced hundreds of tis already..." Ye Wenjun was sowhat reluctant.
"Hey, Wenjun, you really lack the spirit of a martial artist... Your dad has practiced tens of thousands of tis and is still not proficient," Ye Xingkong rolled his eyes at her and seeing her not moving, he added, "How can you feel no pressure at all? Your husband is so powerful, if you don’t work hard, will you even be able to hold your head up in front of him?"
"..."
The words were rough, but there was truth in them.
"Fine," Ye Wenjun followed Ye Xingkong and went out.
They arrived in the backyard.
Boom—
A loud explosion sounded.
"What’s that noise?" Ye Xingkong was startled.
"...It’s Fang Yu, he’s cultivating!" Ye Wenjun said.
"Is this guy trying to demolish the backyard!"
Boom—
Thunderous booms, like thunder, continued.
"Wenjun, let’s practice over there. He’s probably at a critical mont, we can’t disturb him... With Hidden Dragon Guards all around, the backyard is the safest place."
"Okay."
...
At this mont.
Fang Yu held the dragon’s head in his hand and moved agilely back and forth.
"Damn! Try spewing once more, I dare you?"
The Red Gold Dragon erged suddenly, raising its head, boom—
Inner Essence crashed like a huge wave, toppling a tree.
Indeed, the dragon had turned red gold.
As thick as an arm.
But the Inner Essence was overwhelming; the Red Gold Dragon was unleashing it wildly!
After spewing Inner Essence three tis in a row, it finally ceased and turned into a phantom, rging with Fang Yu.
"It seems like it’s quite powerful!" Fang Yu nodded in satisfaction, watching the Red Gold Dragon disappear, feeling a warm sensation all over.
"Eh? What’s going on with the Dantian?"
Crack—
Fang Yu heard this faint sound and was imnsely shocked.
"Is it a breakthrough?"
He hadn’t expected that after the Red Gold Dragon absorbed his Inner Essence, upon rging with him, it was effectively still his own!
Such powerful Inner Essence!
It would be strange not to have a breakthrough!
Overjoyed, Fang Yu thought it was just in ti.
You see, the Red Gold Dragon’s antics just now could easily attract cultivators.
If it was only an average big fish, that was fine; at worst, he would just have to kill it.
But if a real big fish ca, that would be asking for trouble.
Fang Yu hurriedly sat down cross-legged and began to regulate his breath.
A slow red gold light appeared, and his body gradually left the ground, hovering.
"Cycle the Zhou Tian, protect the Dantian."
"From one life cos two, from two cos three, from three cos all things; all things bear yin and embrace yang—"
"Harmonize Qi!"
"Breakthrough!"
