Each Had Its Uses
"I was just kicking and rummaging around, and I managed to pull this big one into my pocket?"
Zhou Rihui was somewhat satisfied with his body for surviving the lightning strike.
For a fleeting moment, he felt as if he were melting, but Zhou Rihui never expected that what was melting was the black leather jacket and feathers on his body.
He felt that these two elements acted as an insulating layer, allowing him to withstand most of the pressure from lightning.
His own son's boasting was useless; Zhang Xuezhou, who gave him leather jackets, leather pants, leather hats, and gene-modifying drugs, was the real savior.
After expressing his gratitude, Zhou Rihui also mentioned his fruitless rummaging through the tomb.
This made Zhang Xuezhou sigh that good people are always blessed, and Zhou Rihui had narrowly escaped disaster by a twist of fate.
"I'll take this jade to play with for a bit," Zhang Xuezhou said, "I have another piece of jade here that I can trade with you!"
"I don't want jade!"
"This jade has some remarkable uses, possibly no less than the Qin Meng Secret Stone!"
Zhang Xuezhou retrieved a piece of "Heart-Nourishing Jade" from the tomb of Emperor Luo Fu, a jade that is useful for cultivating the five internal organs.
Whether used for internal and external cultivation, to replenish internal deficiencies after the physical body has become strong, or to provide a slight nourishing effect through long-term wear, this jade is uniquely unsuitable for promoting the cultivation of the five internal organs when the body is weak.
Zhang Xuezhou tried it once and knew very well that he couldn't use the Nourishing Heart Jade. His body couldn't handle the surge of Qi and Blood, and it would be a waste to use it to nourish his body year-round.
He felt that Zhou Rihui could be of use.
Zhang Xuezhou was generous in returning the Tongtian Ruler he had voluntarily taken.
"This feels a bit awkward!"
Normal methods are unlikely to activate the Heart-Nourishing Jade, but the fact that the jade can be found using treasure-hunting techniques proves that it is related to Law Power and can also have its power activated by Zhang Xuezhou's spells.
He reached out and touched the jade. A deep red and translucent color flashed across it. Zhou Rihui, who was holding the Heart-Nourishing Jade, felt a shiver run through his body. The injuries to his internal organs caused by the lightning strike, which had not yet been treated, gave him a comfortable feeling of healing.
He could even sense that there was a raging fire burning inside his internal organs, giving them a subtle resistance to attacks.
"Baby!"
Nearly 15 minutes later, the color of the Heart-Nourishing Jade faded slightly.
Zhou Rihui let out a deep breath, feeling as if he had stumbled upon a great treasure.
"This jade looks like it can be used another ten or eight times!"
Luo Yan had worn the Heart-Nourishing Jade his entire life, yet the effects it had on him were negligible. However, after activating the Heart-Nourishing Jade, Zhou Rihui used up almost one-tenth or one-twelfth of its power in a short time. This contrast was undoubtedly extremely strong, and even Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but marvel at it, feeling that this jade had a significant effect on Zhou Rihui.
"What's the principle behind this?" Zhou Rihui asked in a loud voice.
"It might be a scent that's more suitable for our internal organs," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"Your breathing has become stronger?"
"It should be similar to the Qin Meng Secret Stone; touching the stone can heal injuries!"
There are so many strange-looking stones!
Zhou Yueyan might do some research, but Zhou Rihui is purely a user-centric person.
He touched it back and forth for a while, clearly wanting to use the Heart-Nourishing Jade again.
Zhang Xuezhou didn't hold back either, using his Law Power to activate them continuously.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
After using it three times, Zhou Rihui's face turned almost purple, his heartbeat became increasingly rapid, and his voice sounded like he had a stethoscope attached to his ear, which Zhang Xuezhou could hear clearly from a meter away.
I might have overexhaled!
When Zhou Rihui spoke, his voice was like a muffled thunderclap, more than ten times louder than when he spoke before.
I overexhaled!
He muttered something, his voice lowered as he suppressed it, and then quickly ran to the training room to practice boxing.
The sounds of explosions shattering the air were incessant. Zhang Xuezhou felt that Zhou Rihui possessed a fierce strength similar to Zhou Xin, but his gentle power was far inferior.
However, one is a veteran powerhouse of the Seventh Sequence, and the other is a newly promoted Sixth Sequence expert. There is no reason to compare them. The fact that they can be compared now clearly shows that the Nourishing Heart Jade has played an extremely powerful role.
"If Wang Li can withstand a full stimulation from the Heart-Nourishing Jade, he will have a promising future and may very well qualify for a place among the top in his class!"
Even though Zhang Xuezhou didn't cultivate his physical body, he was well aware of the importance of coordinating his internal and external bodily functions.
Involving the unity of the body inside and out not only brings the power to resist blows, but also brings powerful striking power due to coordination.
Seeing the remarkable effects of the Yangxin Jade on Zhou Rihui, Zhang Xuezhou quickly thought of other groups who could also benefit from it.
As for Zhang Xuezhou's own physical cultivation technique of 108,000 acupoints, what he lacked was an endless Spiritual Qi environment. The Nourishing Heart Jade had little effect on him, making it difficult to cultivate both internally and externally at the same time.
After thinking it over, he realized that the treasure left behind by Luo Yan was indeed of extraordinary use.
The Tongtian Jade Ruler possesses extraordinary mysteries, the Heart-Nourishing Jade cultivates certain individuals, and even jade used for brewing tea can prolong life and exert a sustained long-term effect.
"Chayu was born in the wrong world!"
Each of these three precious jades has its own function. What Zhang Xuezhou regrets is that in this world, he is young and strong, even though his parents have special abilities that make them look younger than ordinary people. In the other world, however, his parents are old and frail.
The conflict of various needs left Zhang Xuezhou with unspeakable feelings.
He always felt that he had done a lot, but Zhang Xuezhou found that he seemed to have difficulty doing things well, and even when he had suitable treasures at hand, he found it difficult to allocate them evenly.
This left him with a jumble of thoughts before he returned to that other world, making it difficult for him to find peace of mind.
"If the two worlds could exchange matter... a fire meteor?"
Some ideas flashed through his mind, but Zhang Xuezhou realized that they were nothing more than scraps and leftovers, and unlikely to be feasible.
He eventually had to put aside all those thoughts and try to make his life better while dealing with various conflicts.
The time for Zhang Xuezhou's soul to travel to another world is indeed very close.
In just one day, he couldn't do anything particularly special. He could only try to understand some of what he had learned, do some spiritual practice, or sort out the many things he was currently facing.
As he narrowed his eyes slightly, he heard a special notification tone from the communicator.
This was the personalized voice he had set up for Grenas. Several months after they became acquainted, the other party finally sent relevant information, which was very likely related to Zhang Xuezhou's inquiry about Huang Daoxian.
He tried to get up, but when he saw the countdown on the device, he could only lie back down and wait twelve days to check again.
"Brother Zhang, I..."
The communication was in front, while Zhou Rihui's voice came from outside the door, slightly behind.
The other party might have something to ask, but Zhang Xuezhou's eyes had already dimmed.
Like a light being turned off and on, his vision was plunged into darkness, but in the blink of an eye, Zhang Xuezhou's vision suddenly brightened.
When he looked again, the person was already lying on an old, moving carriage.
Zhang Xuezhou frowned, feeling a foreign object in his mouth, along with a foul odor, which made him feel uncomfortable, and even a bit like thorns in his back.
