"How much is this item?" Su Changqing asked, playing with it in his hand.
"Sir, I acquired it for a hundred taels..." Li Taidong hesitated for a moment, then quickly added, "Of course, if you want it, sir, only three hundred taels... no, no, one hundred taels."
"Just give me the original price, sir."
Li Taidong was afraid that this Imperial Guard would hold a grudge against him. Crucially, his accounts actually had discrepancies.
Su Changqing saw through it with a single glance.
"This Imperial Guard, though not old, has already become a Centurion, and he's quite skilled, even uncovering my deeply hidden accounts."
Su Changqing glanced at him with a hint of a smile in his eyes and placed a hundred tael silver note on the counter.
He didn't want any trouble; his goal was to obtain the Great Buddha's Sarira from the Heavenly Gang realm.
The next moment, an Imperial Guard in a Flying Fish Robe, with a strong build, walked in from outside. Upon seeing Su Changqing, his eyes immediately changed.
"Centurion Sir." The Imperial Guard quickly cupped his hands in greeting.
He was only at the ninth layer of Body Tempering. Although he was also a Centurion, his strength was more than a line below Su Changqing's.
That person was capable of killing Scarlet Blood Scholar.
Su Changqing nodded slightly and turned to leave.
"Shopkeeper Li, that necklace I fancied earlier, do you still have it?" the well-built man asked.
"It was bought by someone, just the sir who just left."
The well-built man stood there, a sense of loss filling his heart...
Li Taidong watched him, tapping his abacus, a smile playing on his lips.
His discerning eye immediately recognized it as a string of fake pearls. The material was unknown, only rare at best. Well, he made another fifty taels...
Behind the Imperial Guard's barracks.
Su Changqing sat cross-legged on the ground, holding the largest pearl. It was as large as a pigeon's egg, emitting a faint yellow glow. Upon closer inspection, intertwined Blood Essence could be seen within.
It was the Golden Body Sarira of a Great Buddha from the Heavenly Gang realm.
Sarira were supreme treasures of Buddhism. Only those in the Earth Fiend realm or above, with profound Buddhist cultivation, could possibly condense a Golden Body Sarira after death.
The one in Su Changqing's hand originated from a Heavenly Gang realm entity.
Even the Enlightenment Tea and Muscle Tendon Pills Su Changqing had consumed earlier were likely far inferior to this item.
"That Great Buddha in the Heavenly Gang realm definitely condensed more than just this one Sarira. What a shame..."
Su Changqing chuckled lightly. Greed can lead to ruin. Having this one was already a considerable stroke of luck.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and the Purple Blood Soft Sword at his waist sliced through the air, instantly becoming perfectly straight and as thin as a cicada's wing.
With two swift cuts, he divided the Sarira into four portions and swallowed them all.
His Qi Sea instantly churned. Su Changqing closed his eyes, concentrating, and cultivated the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art.
He sat cross-legged, his ink-black hair falling to his shoulders, his body as radiant as jade.
He was enveloped in a faint golden light, serene and majestic.
The back mountain was quiet, the trees lush and green, all bathed in this golden light.
Boom!
True Qi Sixth Layer!
True Qi Seventh Layer!
Breaking through the bottleneck again! Directly advancing to True Qi Seventh Layer!
The Great Buddha's Blood Essence from the Heavenly Gang realm was too potent. Even just a single Sarira contained Blood Essence as strong as a rainbow, resonating for ten miles around.
Su Changqing's eyes snapped open, his gaze as sharp as lightning.
Indestructible Vajra Divine Art!
His entire body was bathed in golden light. Even his embroidered Flying Fish Robe tore open, revealing his flesh, which was coated in golden sheen, like a golden statue!
His Blood Essence was boundless, like vast oceans, causing all the surrounding vegetation to tremble.
"Is this the first layer of the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art?" Su Changqing looked at his arm and lightly clashed his fists, the sound a muffled boom.
He looked at the large rock beside him, half his height. He extended a finger and flicked his fingernail at it.
The rock instantly shattered into four pieces.
Su Changqing was slightly astonished. His current physique should surpass that of tempered steel; it was almost indestructible.
The Indestructible Vajra Divine Art was divided into five layers.
Ordinary people took twenty years to even get started. Only when one's True Qi reached a certain level of abundance could their inner Qi Sea be stimulated, transforming into the supreme Golden Body!
What does it mean to be Indestructible?
The fifth layer, Golden Incarnation, directly achieved the Martial Dao Grand Saint! Shaking the world, fighting with the physical body against enemies of the same level.
Even if a Martial Dao Grand Saint wielded divine weapons and sharp blades, they could not easily injure him.
Su Changqing hesitated for a moment, picked up the Frost Snow Saber, and made a small cut on his hand.
Blood flowed out, but after only a moment, it was covered by golden paint again, with a tingling sensation at the wound.
"Within my peer group, no one can harm me."
"Even if injured, this golden paint ensures I retain my peak combat strength and continuously repairs the damage. This is the power of a true legacy skill..."
Su Changqing was slightly shocked. If he could also acquire Great Emperor Zhenwu's Profound Heaven True Qi, he would truly embark on the path of rise.
Dispersing the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art, Su Changqing stood in place.
"Having seized all three major opportunities, I should head to the Suppression Bureau again and plunder all the Heavenly Pride!"
Su Changqing remembered that there were still many opportunities when he went last time, but these three were the biggest.
He couldn't give up the smaller ones either; only then would he have the means to deal with Ye Tian when they eventually fought.
Inside the Suppression Bureau's management office.
Su Changqing sat on a long bench, waiting silently, observing everyone, not leaving for a day.
