Profound Heaven True Qi Triggers Dragon-Elephant Prajna Skill, Rapid Progress

"That's right, Vice Thousand Household Su can defeat Ye Tian, which shows his strength! If you want to climb higher and make friends, don't look for us!"

The two left with a flick of their sleeves, unwilling to even ask for the cultivation techniques. They planned to come back another day.

They were only at the True Qi Third Layer, and today they were almost scared to death by a single glance from Su Changqing.

A Thousand Household could kill a Hundred Household with just a small excuse.

Iron Claw Flying Eagle had been missing for half a month. Who in the Suppression Bureau didn't know? The grass on his grave had probably already grown.

Su Changqing was exceptionally talented, and his Azure Dragon Crescent Blade was peerlessly unmatched. He was revered as "Little Guan Gong" within the Suppression Bureau.

The martial arts world was bloody. A slight carelessness could lead to a catastrophic disaster!

The two finally realized their mistake and were naturally unwilling to associate with Chen Mo anymore.

Both of them left, leaving Chen Mo standing alone on the spot, speechless. The front of his clothes was soaked with cold sweat.

"Truly, I regret not having done things differently..."

Chen Mo's thoughts slowly returned. His heart was filled with indescribable emotions. He prided himself on his good aptitude, his arrogant spirit, and his skills in winning people over.

Who knew he would offend someone like this.

Within the courtyard of the Suppression Bureau's Thousand Household, Su Changqing, possessing nothing else, directly moved in.

As a Vice Thousand Household, he was entitled to issue Hundred Household waist tokens. There were supposed to be three Hundred Households and three hundred Imperial Guards under him.

Unfortunately, he had none of them, nor did he have the inclination to seek them out.

He needed subordinates in the past.

Now, he did not.

Even his position as Vice Thousand Household was sufficient. It was a third-rank official position, officially registered.

Only Jin Yichuan and the Suppression Commander could command him.

The Imperial Guard was divided into twelve Bureaus. The Suppression Bureau was one of them, along with the Mirror Division, Intelligence Division, Heavenly Bureau, Earth Bureau, and so on...

"The Suppression Bureau has three Great Thousand Households: Jin Yichuan, Tai Long, and Zuo Qianhu..."

Su Changqing sat cross-legged under a lush, large willow tree, his eyes slightly narrowed. Willow branches swayed in the wind, appearing verdant and moist.

The Iron Claw Flying Eagle he had killed was a subordinate of Zuo Qianhu.

Su Changqing was uncertain whether the Zuo Qianhu he knew from A Chinese Ghost Story was the same person as this one.

If they were the same, then there would be some trouble.

He had never met this person, but he had heard of him many times. He was known to wield six long sabers, his saber techniques were world-class, and he wore a black robe on his back.

His saber techniques were incredibly fast, capable of breaking through immense force, and he concealed thousands of flying sabers, all of which hit their mark without fail.

It was enough to make Jin Yichuan unable to react.

Zuo Qianhu seemed to be universally recognized as the foremost among the three Thousand Households under the Suppression Commander.

Su Changqing took a deep breath. If it really was that person...

Let alone Jin Yichuan, even if it was this person among all the Thousand Households in the twelve Bureaus of the Imperial Guard, he would absolutely be the number one martial artist...

His battle spirit was unparalleled. At his peak, he was Number One Under Heaven, Zuo Qianhu.

"Regardless of whether it's him or not, I'll know in ten days when we meet. For now, I'll focus on cultivating the Lotus Finger Technique and the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Skill."

Su Changqing stopped thinking and began to cultivate.

Time flowed like water, passing rapidly.

Seven days later, within the Thousand Household's courtyard, a figure clad in ink-black clothes, with a handsome face and hair fluttering in the wind.

His internal energy surged like profound, dark water.

A massive Black Tortoise phenomenon appeared behind Su Changqing, almost solidifying into substance.

It had a large head, eyes like two golden lamps, dazzling and brilliant, and it proudly raised its head, with golden lightning interweaving within them.

The Black Tortoise phenomenon shook the heavens and earth.

Su Changqing stood on the tip of a willow leaf, his posture peerless, soaring upwards. His hands moved with incredible speed.

His fingertips were like ghosts, his demeanor refined, his movements graceful as a startled swan, vast as a roaming dragon.

The Lotus Finger Technique focused on intent, not form.

A high monk from the Shaolin Temple once said that when a practitioner of the Lotus Finger Technique could catch an invisible saber energy with just two fingers, they would have reached the pinnacle of mastery.

Fingers with form catching blades without form.

This technique was truly extraordinary, worthy of being one of the Shaolin Temple's seventy-two unique skills.

A thousand years ago, it was hailed as the number one finger technique under heaven.

Alas, new talents emerge in every generation, with new techniques surpassing the old.

The Formless Tribulation Finger, One Yang Finger, Telekinetic Finger... its outstanding combat results and exquisite techniques completely crushed it.

Not to mention the Six Meridians Divine Sword... which directly transformed finger techniques into sword energy. The creator of this finger technique must have been astonishingly talented.

It took Su Changqing a full seven days to gain a little mastery of this finger technique, just barely stepping into the Minor Accomplishment realm.

Su Changqing leaped down from beneath the willow tree, preparing to cultivate the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Skill.

The Heavenly Gang level cultivation art, and a top-tier secret manual, weren't a matter of Su Changqing favoring one over the other.

It was simply that this cultivation art progressed too slowly, and couldn't rapidly increase his power.

"Dragon-Elephant Prajna, the gate of strength and technique, profound and mysterious..."

Profound Heaven True Qi flowed through his extraordinary meridians, circulating according to the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Skill.

Su Changqing's internal golden sea of Qi surged, like waves rising and falling, stirring up a tempest. He was almost instantly about to transform into a golden figure, but he forcefully suppressed it.

"The first layer, like this, I broke through? My strength increased by about a tenth."

Even Su Changqing was shocked, standing frozen in place.

"Could Profound Heaven True Qi be cultivation?"

He confirmed multiple times that what was inside him was True Qi, not Dharma power... He took a deep breath, his heart filled with dread.

"There are three days left, I wonder if I can double my strength."

"The Suppression Bureau notoriously spread rumors that I inherited Guan Gong's legacy, wielding the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade, and made Ye Tian flee in disarray."

A hint of a smile flickered in Su Changqing's eyes as he sat down cross-legged.

Relying on Profound Heaven True Qi, he truly had a chance to cultivate the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Skill before his lifespan ended, master the power of thirteen turns of the Dragon-Elephant, and reach an unimaginable realm.

Punching mountains and splitting rivers with his saber!

Then, with the Overlord Saber and the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art to protect himself.

Even if surrounded by ten thousand men, no one could harm him; he could probably go anywhere in the world.

Su Changqing's eyes narrowed. By then, he would tightly grip Ji Xingyue's thigh, and with his extremely powerful physique, he would endure the void cracks and also shatter the void through martial arts...

This was a bright path.

A path for a villain more unprecedented than ever before.

Su Changqing's mind stirred, and he checked his status panel.

[Name]: Su Changqing

[Realm]: Xiantian Realm First Layer

[Destiny]: Profound Heaven True Martial Phenomenon (Purple, Growth Potential) Destined Villain (Green) Unusual Aptitude (Green) Clouded Face (Green)

[Life Script]: (Evil God Descends, Mid-level Villain Centurion in the Imperial Guard, poses minor obstruction to the protagonist, villain inevitably dies!)

Su Changqing gazed at it for a moment before ceasing to pay attention.

He already had a path for the future in his heart. While his Life Script wouldn't change, and he remained a minor villain, that was of no consequence.

If the system complies with me, then it is my system; if the system does not comply, I will not look.

When plans are well-conceived and matters are settled, success is assured!

Without a plan, one is trapped; without preparation, matters will fail!

How many people in the world have reached the Martial Dao Grand Saint realm?

There should be Su Changqing, who wears Snow Drifting at his waist!

Little Xing bows to everyone, wishing you all a happy late new year... Bang bang!
