Chapter 314: Chapter 265 Zhang Yu’s Spirit Vein Pass
Zhang Yu felt the martial arts intent crashing into him like sothing tangible, trying to burn his flesh, organs, bones, soul, consciousness… reducing everything to ashes.
Just at the mont of contact, Zhang Yu had a feeling of impending doom; the gap between them was simply too vast.
anwhile, Master Xinghuo’s voice exploded beside his ear.
“Actuate your ntal thod, use your will to resist my martial arts intent.”
Zhang Yu exerted himself fully to run the Can Niu Soul Heart Technique, accompanied by the roar of the White Bull in his mind, a surge of fighting spirit bubbled from within him.
Scenes of previous battles, fighting desperately against Wang Yin, flashed continuously through Zhang Yu’s mind.
On the other side, watching the two grit their teeth and hold tight under the impact of his martial arts intent, Master Xinghuo nodded slightly, temporarily withdrawing the martial arts intent.
“Rest for 30 seconds, then continue.”
Thirty seconds later, the violent intent was released once more from Master Xinghuo’s body.
And this ti, what Zhang Yu felt was no longer an all-engulfing fire, but an unparalleled oppressive pressure, as if the air instantly beca a thousandfold, a ten-thousandfold heavier, threatening to crush his bones and force him kneel heavily.
Master Xinghuo said coldly, “Hold on, do not kneel.”
Unlike the amiable manner of Elder Chun Chun before.
After instructing Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen in their training, Master Xinghuo was filled with an air of authority, like a general on the battlefield; every command, every tip seed irresistible.
In the following ti, Master Xinghuo repeatedly struck them with martial arts intent, forcing Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen to fully mobilize their ntal thod in resistance.
And each ti, the martial arts intent released by Master Xinghuo was different.
Sotis Zhang Yu felt like he was being burned, sotis crushed by the atmosphere, sotis pierced by ten thousand swords, sotis frozen in thought…
All kinds of martial arts intent rushed at him, making Zhang Yu inevitably sigh internally, “Just how many ntal thods does Old Deng know?”
“He can switch between them so naturally… is he not schizophrenic?”
In this process of refining his Dao Heart and ntal thod, Zhang Yu felt like a long sword, with Master Xinghuo’s martial arts intent acting like a sharpening stone; through repeated grinding, the sword beca sharper, more resilient.
Zhang Yu could clearly feel that this training was indeed several tis more effective than practicing ntal thods alone.
Dao Heart Level 11 (0.3%) → (0.5%)
Can Niu Soul Heart Technique Level 11 (3/110) → (35/110)
Master Xinghuo, looking at the two pale-faced individuals, already swaying on their feet, stopped the release of martial arts intent.
He said plainly, “Alright, you’ve pretty much hit your limit for today; continuing would harm your spirit.”
“But the ntal thod must continually operate, especially to rember the feeling of resisting pressure just now.”
“Maintain this feeling, keep this tension; it will allow you to enhance the efficiency of advancing your Dao Heart in usual tis.”
With Master Xinghuo’s departure, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen suddenly collapsed to the ground, feeling surprisingly exhausted despite not having moved much physically.
In the days that followed, Master Xinghuo frequently summoned Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen for further guidance.
His thod of instructing Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen was just as he described: very primitive yet highly effective.
If Zhang Yu were to describe it… it would be a cost-effective training thod for the poor.
But this cost-effectiveness was also based on Master Xinghuo himself.
Zhang Yu thought, “If Master Xinghuo were to charge, who knows how much it would be; anyway, Azhen and I definitely can’t afford it.”
Zhang Yu deeply appreciated the kindness of the Golden Core True Man willing to take ti to ntor them for free.
He thought to himself, “Thank you, Old Deng; once I ascend, I’ll make your na resound through Kunxu.”
Under Master Xinghuo’s guidance, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen’s Dao Heart and physical strength steadily increased daily, far surpassing the efficiency of individual cultivation.
As for the mana, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen had a separate plan.
…
That day, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen arrived at the protection zone, both passing through the gate smoothly.
They went straight to the foot of a mountain, as if familiar from many visits.
The mountain before them was one of the crucial Spirit Vein nodes of the protection zone, a place once unimaginable for Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen.
But now, not only could they breathe freely within the protection zone, they could even go up the mountain to cultivate.
Except, each ti before ascending the mountain, Zhang Yu had tasks to complete, having to deliver as requested by Red Tower Dragon.
Watching Zhang Yu walk into the nearby restroom, Bai Zhenzhen waited outside, starting to absorb and exhale.
After waiting for quite a while, Bai Zhenzhen finally urged, “Are you done?”
She complained, “Why does it take longer each ti now? I’ve been waiting for almost half an hour.”
Zhang Yu’s sowhat embarrassed voice ca from within, “Almost… why are you rushing?”
“Think about who’s been doing the dirty work ti and again to let you enter the Spirit Vein for cultivation?”
Bai Zhenzhen rolled her eyes, suggesting, “Could you bring it from ho next ti?”
Zhang Yu replied, “You think I don’t want to? The Red Tower Company demands freshness!”
After another ten minutes, Bai Zhenzhen thought to herself, “This Yu Zi… even after Foundation Establishnt, it still doesn’t stop?”
“After Foundation Establishnt, the physical strength is significantly enhanced; isn’t the wicked root growing bigger, increasingly nourished, and stronger?”
“In the future, if he continues body refinent and keeps nourishing this thing, who knows how much nutrition, blood, and spiritual chanism he’ll waste on it.”
“Who knows how much ti and energy will be wasted on it… It’s practically a malignant tumor on the Immortal Path.”
“But on the other hand, this thing does have its rits; at least it can let us cut the line to cultivate in the spirit vein.”
“Once we reach the top, we beco paupers again, maybe it could serve as our ergency fund at crucial monts.”
Bai Zhenzhen pondered for a mont and ca up with a compromise: “How about we help Yu Zi make it detachable? Like his eyes.”
“Install it when needed, lock it away when not? This way, we wouldn’t worry about the tumor consuming too much nutrition and blood, hindering Yu Zi’s body refinent progress.”
“We are family, after all. If he can’t make up his mind, should I simply lend a hand?”
Bai Zhenzhen believed Zhang Yu would understand her.
“After all, I see Yu Zi’s face subtly showing helplessness and regret every ti he finishes; he surely wants to solve this problem but just can’t bring himself to do it.”
As Bai Zhenzhen secretly plotted how to help her brother, Zhang Yu had already slowly walked out of the restroom.
“All set, let’s go.” Zhang Yu waved his hand with a hint of pride and led Bai Zhenzhen through the spirit vein entrance.
The incoming spiritual chanism rushed in, causing the spirit roots within both of them to tremble, inducing an indescribable comfort throughout their bodies.
Zhang Yu felt that each ti he entered the spirit vein to perform breathing exercises, his Qi Sea Spirit Root and Abyssal Whirlpool Qigong truly had a chance to flourish, no longer feeling stifled as usual.
Yes, stifled.
Ever since stepping into the Foundation Establishnt, Zhang Yu felt a daily sense of stiflent, feeling the world’s spiritual chanism so thin, the air so stale.
“Spirit veins are indeed better.”
However, thinking of the ti he had just spent getting in, Zhang Yu felt a bit introspective: “It indeed wasted so ti.”
“But it’s not my fault; I’ve done my best.”
Taking a glance at Bai Zhenzhen beside him, Zhang Yu suddenly blushed and turned his head away.
Bai Zhenzhen, taking deep breaths, raised her eyebrows, sensing Zhang Yu’s gaze, and asked curiously, “Speak if you have sothing to say.”
Zhang Yu stamred, “Actually… um… I thought of a quicker way.”
Bai Zhenzhen asked curiously, “What way?”
“Uh…” Zhang Yu, face turning red, turned away and finally took a deep breath and said, “N-nothing.”
As Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen walked deeper into the spirit vein, Fu Ji felt unexpressed bitterness in her heart: “You two, why not ask for my opinion? Do you think just accompanying Zhang Yu is okay?”
“Damn it, you should pay a viewing fee.”
“Damn, if I request to follow Bai Zhenzhen, it’ll surely spark Zhang Yu’s suspicion that I’m up to sothing shady.”
“Sigh, I’ll just pretend I’m watching Animal Planet.”
Upon reaching the deep spirit vein, Zhang Yu began to operate his newly cultivated Abyssal Whirlpool Qigong.
This Foundation Establishnt stage breathing exercise can form vortices with mana, constantly expanding the scope of spiritual chanism absorption through continuous breathing practice until it reaches its peak.
At this mont, paired with the Qi Sea Spirit Root, it imdiately expanded Zhang Yu’s spiritual chanism absorption range to 100 ters around him.
At this mont, Zhang Yu seed like a giant vacuum, insanely attracting the spiritual chanism from the spirit vein to surge toward him.
Zhang Yu thought inwardly: “Although the Abyssal Whirlpool Qigong cannot operate constantly like the Great Sun Qi Sea, using this thod to cultivate in the spirit vein for a few hours equals a few days of hard work with the Great Sun Qi Sea, making it more efficient.”
“Especially since I haven’t advanced the Abyssal Whirlpool Qigong to the highest level yet, the efficiency of mana refinent will surely improve in the future.”
Mana 200.5
Abyssal Whirlpool Qigong Level 10 (1/100)
“Finally Level 10.”
Zhang Yu, sensing the Level 10 Abyssal Whirlpool Qigong, could feel cyclones swirling around him, frantically devouring the surrounding spiritual chanism.
“After reaching Level 10, the mana vortex becos apparent, which can further expand the range of spiritual chanism absorption.”
“Combined with my Qi Sea Spirit Root, my spirit root absorption range has expanded to 150 ters.”
Shortly after Bai Zhenzhen and Zhang Yu entered the spirit vein entrance, however.
With the whooshing of flying swords and the surge of combat spirit roots, a fully ard security team had already boarded a flying boat and surrounded the restroom Zhang Yu just used.
A few staff mbers in protective suits entered the restroom, and monts later, erged carrying a large armored box, which they loaded onto the flying boat under the grim gazes of surrounding security personnel.
…
While Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen were engrossed in the Foundation Establishnt stage cultivation, imrsed in consolidating their foundation, improving their Dao Heart, mana, and physical strength, other changes were happening on the Oasis Group’s side.
That day, after Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen finished receiving Master Xinghuo’s instructions, they received a call from Patrol Team Leader Yun Ni.
They heard Yun Ni say: “Previously, when you were fighting with Chi He’s group, a mysterious adept suddenly attacked Bai Zhenzhen, right?”
“Further investigation has confird with 100% certainty that the adept you killed in the enforcent action was Zhou Yang from the Zhou Family…”
Upon hearing this news, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen’s expressions slightly changed, for they both knew that the Zhou Family is suspected to have the Evil God behind them.
Yun Ni continued: “Next, the Patrol Team will thoroughly investigate the Zhou Family; since you both were involved, I’m here to ask for your opinions…”
Zhang Yu directly stated: “You want to thoroughly investigate the Zhou Family? Can Azhen and I join?”
