Su Mo Leaves the Village! Zhang Qian Awakens a Special Powerful Physique, Shining in Anyuan County Town!

Qingliang Mountain, on a mountain path.

"Martial Artists of the Meridian Opening Realm are truly terrifying, especially these wanted criminals from the Fire Worship Cult. Their physical defense is simply astonishing. Not only can they catch the arrows I shoot with their bare bodies, but their entire being seems to have no weak points, exuding an incredibly chilling threat."

Su Mo's figure appeared on the mountain path. He hadn't expected his first encounter with a Meridian Opening Realm Martial Artist to be so shocking. The strength of that wanted criminal from the Fire Worship Cult was immense.

He was no match for him yet.

Taking advantage of a brief opening during their exchange, he decisively fled. Su Mo was so afraid of being caught by the wanted criminal that he didn't dare run in a straight line. Instead, he relied on his familiarity with Qingliang Mountain to make continuous detours, weaving through the bushes.

Although he didn't know why the wanted criminal from the Fire Worship Cult hadn't pursued him, Su Mo, having successfully escaped, couldn't help but gasp for air.

The pressure that the wanted criminal Qiu Jinping from the Fire Worship Cult had put on him was too great. He was the strongest enemy Su Mo had ever encountered in his martial arts cultivation.

Without a doubt.

"When I threw a punch, it felt like hitting a solid iron wall when it landed on the wanted criminal's palm. The immense recoil made my blood and qi churn chaotically. If my physical body hadn't been strong enough, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to withstand the backlash of that force."

"How strong is this wanted criminal? Ordinary peak late Body Tempering Realm Martial Artists probably couldn't withstand even one of his moves."

Su Mo calmed the turbulent blood and qi within him. Although the wanted criminal possessed some kind of body-refining miraculous technique and had astonishing physical defense, Su Mo hadn't sustained any injuries during their fight because his own physical body was equally strong.

He guessed that an ordinary peak late Body Tempering Realm Martial Artist would likely die on the spot after facing this wanted criminal from the Fire Worship Cult.

But what Su Mo didn't know was that it wasn't just peak late Body Tempering Realm Martial Artists who would die facing this wanted criminal. Even ordinary Meridian Opening Realm Martial Artists couldn't withstand him and would be instantly killed.

Yes, ordinary Meridian Opening Realm Martial Artists would be instantly killed by the current weakened Qiu Jinping, the wanted criminal.

Qiu Jinping, as a special disciple of the Fire Worship Cult, possessed formidable strength. If he hadn't first been besieged by several top experts in the Meridian Opening Realm, then enraged and killed several Meridian Opening Realm officials, and subsequently encountered a Tendon Changing Realm expert who shattered his body-refining miraculous technique with powerful true energy.

Otherwise, Qiu Jinping could have easily swept through his peers. No one in the Meridian Opening Realm could withstand his cultivated body-refining miraculous technique; they would all be torn apart by his terrifying physique.

Furthermore, Qiu Jinping was not an ordinary disciple of the Fire Worship Cult. He was a high-potential disciple who had the possibility of becoming an Altar Master or Helmsman of the Fire Worship Cult, incomparable to ordinary disciples.

"The Fire Worship Cult is one of the evil cults in the martial world... I absolutely cannot enter Qingliang Mountain again for a while."

Su Mo pondered. Li Xian had told him that the Fire Worship Cult was different from ordinary major sects. It was an undeniable major evil cult of the Demonic Dao in the martial world. Its demonic influence swept across multiple cities and prefectures. They liked to deceive the common people, converting them into their followers and disciples, frantically spreading their doctrines, and attempting to sow chaos among the populace.

Su Mo knew that he was no match for that wanted criminal Qiu Jinping of the Fire Worship Cult at the moment, so he wouldn't be hunting in Qingliang Mountain again for a while.

At the same time, he needed to return and inform Village Chief Yang Baishu and Uncle Chen Shan.

Upon returning to Shuanglin Village, Su Mo took two Green Wolves to Uncle Chen Shan's house next door. Since he would be going to Guande Martial Arts School in town, he wouldn't be back for at least a month, or perhaps two.

Uncle Chen Shan's two children, Dabao and Xiaobao, were in their growing stage. Fearing they wouldn't have enough meat to eat, and also to ensure Uncle Chen Shan took care of himself, Su Mo brought over two Green Wolf carcasses.

"Su Mo, are you going to the martial arts school in town again? Take these two Green Wolves back. We haven't finished the last batch you brought."

Uncle Chen Shan was surprised that Su Mo had come to give him meat again and quickly tried to refuse. After all, Su Mo was currently spending a lot on his martial arts studies, and they hadn't even finished the previous Green Wolf meat.

But Su Mo wouldn't listen. He insisted that Uncle Chen Shan take it, saying it was for the children. Aunt Cui Hua, standing nearby, was deeply moved and praised Su Mo as a good child.

At the same time, Su Mo also told Uncle Chen Shan and the others not to venture deep into Qingliang Mountain unless absolutely necessary. If they were hunting, it would be best to stay on the outskirts to avoid encountering that wanted criminal from the Fire Worship Cult.

He had also informed Village Chief Yang Baishu about this matter, urging the villagers to be cautious.

On his way back, Su Mo stopped by Grandma Li's house and gave her over twenty catties of Green Wolf meat. Grandma Li had helped and supported Su Mo more than once. Her grandson, Li Xian, had also helped him numerous times, suggesting he join the Black Eagle Sect.

He had even told him about Guande Martial Arts School in town, which gave him the opportunity to obtain a Body Tempering cultivation technique and break through his cultivation.

It could be said that Li Xian truly considered Su Mo a good friend and brother.

Therefore, Su Mo was never stingy with Grandma Li.

The elderly villagers who had previously helped Su Mo also successively received Green Wolf meat from him.

Thus, out of the twelve Green Wolves Su Mo had hunted, only nine remained. Two were at Uncle Chen Shan's house, one was distributed among the village elders, and the rest were enough for Su Mo to sell in town to raise tuition fees for continuing his martial arts studies.

However, just as Su Mo was preparing to leave the village.

News arrived from Anyuan County Town.

Zhang Qian, Zhang Hai, Li Goudan, and Chen Mazi from the Black Eagle Sect had become Martial Artists. This news shocked many in the village when it arrived. It was too fast. Many had assumed Zhang Qian and the others would take a long time to become Martial Artists.

But they never expected that in just one month, they would become the highly respected Martial Artists.

It was said that Zhang Qian, after becoming a Martial Artist, had awakened some kind of hidden special physique, unleashing unimaginable divine talent, which even alarmed the elders and sect leader of the Black Eagle Sect.

The Sect Leader of the Black Eagle Sect had directly stated that Zhang Qian had the potential to become a top-tier powerhouse.

The experts in Anyuan County Town were all at the Blood Changing Realm level, but these were not true top-tier powerhouses. In the county town, true top-tier powerhouses were at least old monsters at the Condensing Gang Realm level.

One could imagine how highly the Black Eagle Sect valued Zhang Qian. They had even promoted her to an inner disciple, and despite her Body Tempering Realm cultivation, her treatment was comparable to that of An Yanbing and Xiao Yingkai, who were in the Meridian Opening Realm.

Due to Zhang Qian's beautiful appearance and tall, elegant demeanor, she had become a prominent figure among the younger generation of the Black Eagle Sect, admired and favored by many disciples.

Upon hearing this news, Zhang Tieshan and Liu Guihua were extremely excited. Qian'er had once said she would only marry a Martial Artist, but now, it seemed Qian'er would likely become an incredibly powerful Martial Artist in the future.

"After Zhang Qian became a Martial Artist, she awakened a special powerful physique and became an inner true disciple of the Black Eagle Sect..."

Su Mo also learned of this news and headed to Qingshan Town that very day.
