Luo Hui's Downfall, Wind City Finally Descends into True Chaos
In a remote valley deep within the Ten Thousand Mountains, a figure suddenly appeared. The newcomer threw a throwing knife in each hand, the two knives changing direction in the air with effortless skill.
The throwing knives flew for a while before disappearing into the air without leaving a trace.
Jiang Liu nodded. Hmm! It seems that cultivating here for more than half a year has yielded good results. Jiang Liu was very satisfied with the results of this period of seclusion, and his proficiency in various techniques had improved significantly.
Especially in terms of controlling the Ice Blade, he could multitask, and then, Jiang Liu a thought, a deep blue light screen appeared.
Name: Jiang Liu
Realm: Martial Artist (Ninth Rank)
Alchemy (Minor Success 20/500)
Medical Skills (Minor Success 56/1500)
Cultivation Technique: Annihilation by Thought (Heaven Grade, Peak Rank Entry-Level 3221/8000)
Eight Steps of Trampling (Earth Grade, Low Rank Mastery 9/6600)
Frost Nether Palm (Earth Grade, Low Rank Lesser Mastery 1362/2200)
Exploding Fist (Mystic Peak-Grade Mastery, 638/6000) (Trait: Tiger's Gaze)
Demon Quelling Blade (Mystic High-Grade, Mastery 1286/4800)
Beast Mastery Art (Basic Chapter) (Mystic Grade, Low Rank, Minor Success) 864/1000
The Soul Technique and Flash Blade have both been perfected. The biggest progress is in the accumulation of Yuan Qi. The Primal Qi Liquid in the body is almost solidified, with only some liquid remaining at the edges. When all the Primal Qi Liquid has solidified, it will be time to prepare for the advancement to Grandmaster.
Ordinary martial artists need to prepare a large number of items and pills before they can begin to prepare to advance to the Grandmaster level, because failure to advance can result in severed meridians, mental breakdown, and becoming a cripple.
In severe cases, the dantian (lower abdomen) may shatter, the body's vital energy may be depleted, and life may be in danger. Even if the patient can be saved, they will be bedridden for the rest of their lives, waiting to die.
Therefore, many people without great perseverance simply do not dare to advance to the level of Grandmaster.
However, martial artists are born with a spirit of continuous improvement; otherwise, even reaching the Entry Grade would be difficult, as the Bone Tempering is notoriously challenging. Without great perseverance, it is very difficult to achieve anything significant in the path of martial arts.
Moreover, there is the allure of longevity: Ranked Martial Practitioner live for over 150 years, and grandmasters live for over 300 years.
Jiang Liu, on the other hand, did not have this worry. As long as he accumulated enough vital energy, he would naturally advance to the next level, without any of those risks.
Jiang Liu had already refined all the medicinal herbs and fruits in the secret room, even the fruits that had fallen on the ground; he had refined everything that could be refined.
Jiang Liu sealed back the tunnel entrance he had dug from the tree, then resealed the main gate, and in a flash, flew out of the valley.
Jiang Liu glanced at the sun in the sky, determined the direction, and then flew towards the deep pool where the Frostwing Dragon was located.
It was nearly dark when Jiang Liu finally reached the deep pool where the Frostwing Dragon was. Before he even got close to the pool, the Frostwing Dragon flew out of the water.
It flew to Jiang Liu's side, its wings flapping slightly, its head held high, looking at Jiang Liu, and a faint spiritual force was transmitted from the spiritual imprint.
Upon seeing it, Jiang Liu immediately stepped forward, conveyed his deep affection through spiritual power, and then carefully examined the Frostwing Dragon.
The Frostwing Dragon's injuries have completely healed, and its strength has even increased significantly. Jiang Liu sensed the thickness of its vital energy and realized that it had completely digested the flesh and blood of the Dwarf Dragon and should be close to advancing to the Beast King level.
Jiang Liu then climbed onto the back of the Frostwing Dragon and sat cross-legged, thinking it was time to return to Wind City. With the Frostwing Dragon as his mount, they should be quite fast.
Jiang Liu gave a command to the Frostwing Dragon and soared into the air, heading straight towards Wind City. Jiang Liu felt the wind blowing in his face and the scenery flashing past him.
I immediately felt the comfort of being transported by this Frostwing Dragon. It was not only fast but also stable. If I could fix something like a wooden house on it, I could even sleep on it.
This way, traveling won't require the arduous task of running on the ground or flying like before. Hmm! Worth considering.
Moreover, this pterosaur is at the level of Lesser Beast King, and it's about to advance to the next level. If it does, it will be equivalent to a human Grandmaster. Thinking of this, Jiang Liu felt relieved. He would find another Lesser Beast King to feed it when he had time, so that it could advance to the next level even faster.
As they approached the edge of the mountain range, Jiang Liu flew off the back of the Frostwing Dragon and commanded it to fly back on its own. The Frostwing Dragon watched Jiang Liu flap its wings a few times before turning around and flying back.
Jiang Liu used his flying technique to fly directly back to his own courtyard. The courtyard was a mess, with fallen leaves and dust everywhere. Jiang Liu used his vital energy to circle the entire house, and it was instantly refreshed.
When Jiang Liu returned to Wind City, it was already past midnight. He then habitually began meditating and cultivating his inner energy. Not long after entering a meditative state, a voice rang in his ears, "Do you want to die?! You think you can just walk into this courtyard? Have you forgotten the Feng Family's warning?"
Jiang Liu was taken aback. Could it be that they wanted to enter his courtyard? He then spread his Divine Sense and discovered that two people were searching for valuables next door. Jiang Liu immediately flashed to the next courtyard and unleashed two powerful gusts of wind, knocking the two men unconscious.
Upon further inspection, it was discovered that the five members of the family next door had simply fainted on their beds and were not in any life-threatening danger; the two thieves were likely only after money.
Jiang Liu carried the two thieves back to his courtyard, threw them on the ground, and slapped each of them awake. The two thieves woke up and looked at Jiang Liu with panic, "Sir, spare our lives! We didn't mean to offend you!"
"Alright, don't worry, I won't kill you. I'll ask you a few questions!"
Thief A hurriedly replied, "Sir, please ask whatever you need to know, and I will tell you everything I know!"
"You just said that the Feng Family warned us not to enter anyone's yard?"
"It's your courtyard, sir. Someone came into your courtyard before, but the eldest young master of the Feng Family found out, found the person, broke their limbs, and threw them at your gate. That's why no one dares to come to your courtyard anymore."
Jiang Liu was surprised that Feng Yi could do this, and thought to himself that this Baldy Feng was actually quite reliable.
"Aren't you afraid of the Martial Prohibition Hall if you wander around like this at night?"
"Has the master been away from Wind City for a long time?"
Why do you say that?
"Because the Martial Prohibition Hall is already too busy taking care of itself, it has no time to deal with these trivial matters."
"What happened at the Martial Prohibition Hall?"
"About three months ago, Lord Luo Hui, the commander of the Martial Prohibition Hall, led Liu Changfeng, Yan Jin, Li Qianfan to besiege the Lotus Sect. However, they were ambushed. In the battle, Luo Hui was killed, Li Qianfan was seriously injured, and only Liu Changfeng and Yan Jin escaped with the rest of the Martial Prohibition Hall members."
Jiang Liu was stunned. Luo Hui was dead? Then it's no wonder that Wind City was in chaos.
"Luo Hui is dead? Who's in charge of the Martial Prohibition Hall now?"
"I heard it's Liu Changfeng."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Liu understood what was going on; the Martial Prohibition Hall was truly overwhelmed with its own problems. He then waved his hand, dismissing the two men.
Jiang Liu then flashed out of his own courtyard and headed straight for the Wang Family's house.
