”Boom, rumble!” “Boom!” .
Chu Zhiyuan heard the sound of thunder in his ears, one after another. The bronze tower made a loud noise, resounding between heaven and earth.
But this was just an illusion.
The vibrations from the bronze tower filled every part of his body. It felt to him like it was resounding between heaven and earth, but in reality, the outside world was calm and peaceful, without any vibrations from the bronze tower. It was as if it were his hallucination.
Chu Zhiyuan thought that the bronze tower was difficult to break, but he didn't expect it to be this difficult.
Again and again, until the twelve Dragon Binding Cords became somewhat weak, and then he replenished them. During the replenishment process, the twelve Dragon Binding Cords continued to impact the bronze tower. He found that his thoughts seemed to be able to disperse into countless fragments, without end. As long as there was a need, he could disperse one.
When his spirit was exhausted, he would circulate the Tianyuan Art, and when his Gang Qi was insufficient, he would circulate the Diyuan Art. Without rest, without day or night.
“Boom—!”
In the earth-shattering roar, his mind went blank.
When he woke up, he found that his Gang Qi was like warm water, circulating endlessly in his body, warmer and purer than before. The first layer of the bronze tower had disappeared.
He had already reached the Second Heaven Realm! His hyper-sensitivity was illuminating every part of his body.
Compared to the First Heaven, his body had been strengthened, and the purity and thickness of his Gang Qi had increased by one-third. This was already a huge change.
The collision of Gang Qi against Gang Qi was not like the battles between the Acquired Realm and the Innate Realm, which focused on the exquisiteness and subtlety of martial arts moves.
The collision of Gang Qi was a head-on confrontation, without any tricks. Whoever was weaker would be blasted away.
If the protective Gang Qi was activated upon being attacked, it would be a contest between spear and shield. Who was weak and who was strong would be immediately apparent.
In the Grandmaster Realm, the role of moves was weakened, and the role of mental cultivation methods became more prominent.
Internal cultivation methods also came in two categories: one was the fundamental cultivation method, which cultivated Gang Qi and realm, and the other was a miraculous skill cultivation method similar to martial arts techniques, which changed Gang Qi to enhance its power, like an iron rod and a sword.
The Gang Qi realm was the material, and the miraculous skill cultivation method was the casting technique. Iron of the same hardness would have different power when made into a rod versus when forged into a sword. And even for the same sword, the sword's power would also be different depending on the hardness of the iron.
Moves were not that important because there was a protective Gang Qi, which was equivalent to wearing armor.
If the armor was strong enough, no move could break through it.
Chu Zhiyuan discovered that the martial arts he had chosen were all suitable for continued practice in the Grandmaster Realm, such as the Great Snow Avalanche Sword Art, the Horizon Within Reach Step, the Heart Questioning Saber Art, and the Heaven Piercing Sword Art. The martial arts of the Ancient Three Sects could finally be practiced in the Grandmaster Realm with the release of Gang Qi.
The Great Heavenly Dragon Fist from the Dragon Subduing True Scripture, the Sword Control Art from the Imperial Void Sword Sect, and the Myriad Streams Returning to Origin Palm from the Taiqing Origin Sect.
The sun was setting.
Chu Zhiyuan left the new residence and walked slowly on Phoenix Avenue. When he reached the western section, he saw Huang Shirong in the crowd. He was surrounded by guards, making him even more eye-catching. Huang Shirong saw him from afar and floated over to greet him with a fist salute.
Chu Zhiyuan returned the salute with a fist and walked side by side.
“Has Your Highness finished his closed-door cultivation?”
“Advanced to the Second Heaven.” Chu Zhiyuan smiled.
“...…As expected of Your Highness!” Huang Shirong looked at him with emotion.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled: “It was also a trick. How is it?”
Huang Shirong frowned slightly: “Deng Tonghe and Deng Yifan are fine, but that brown-clothed old man is a fiend from the Fearless Sect.”
Chu Zhiyuan's sword-like eyebrows rose: “Fearless Sect!”
There was a record of the Fearless Sect in the 'Record of Exterminating Evil'.
The so-called Fearless was not only fearless of death, but also the Fearless Realm.
After the death of a Fearless Sect disciple, he could enter the Fearless Realm, immortal and indestructible.
It was said that the Fearless Realm could manifest in the world, and the disciples of the Fearless Sect were all convinced that the Fearless Realm was real and true, so their hearts were as firm as a rock, and their cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds.
The Fearless Sect disciples relied on killing to cultivate, and their cultivation realm advanced by leaps and bounds as they walked between life and death again and again.
The higher the realm, the higher the status in the Fearless Realm.
This was an immortal position, which was extremely solid and difficult to shake, so every disciple of the Fearless Sect was frantically pursuing higher cultivation.
They challenged stronger opponents again and again, breaking through their realm in the face of near-death experiences, and the cultivation methods they practiced were also strange, with extremely strong vitality and excellent escape skills, making them almost impossible to kill. Often, when you thought you had killed him, he could survive. Often, when you thought he couldn't escape, he could escape.
“It is Zhu Qiuyu, an elder of the Fearless Sect, a Grandmaster Realm expert.” Huang Shirong's face was solemn: “Once we encircle and suppress him, I am afraid we will lose many people.” “Then how to deal with him?”
“...Lure him out of Yujing and then encircle and suppress him.”
“Since he has come to Yujing, how can he leave so easily?” Chu Zhiyuan said: “I am afraid it will not be so easy to lure him out, right?” Huang Shirong said: “I just don't know his goal.”
If they knew his goal, they could use the goal to lure him out. “Which sect does the Fearless Sect have a grudge against?”
“There are grudges between these evil sects.” Huang Shirong said: “Has Your Highness discovered other evil sects?” “How about the Jade Cauldron Sect?”
“Has a fiend from the Jade Cauldron Sect also entered the city?”
“Yes, I ran into one.” Chu Zhiyuan pursed his lips. Huang Shirong looked over.
It was an ordinary middle-aged woman in the crowd, stopping in front of a stall selling small jewelry, picking out pearl flowers. Huang Shirong looked at Chu Zhiyuan.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded: “She is carrying a small jade cauldron on her body.”
Huang Shirong pulled a long face, retracted her gaze and looked at Wen Qianqian and Xu Mengyu: “Send someone to keep an eye on her, and don't startle the snake.”
Chu Zhiyuan said: “It is a mixed bag, too lively. In my opinion, we should directly encircle and suppress this Jade Cauldron Sect fiend in the city. The inner city still needs to be deterred.” “...Allow me to report to the Central Division Master.” Huang Shirong said.
Chu Zhiyuan cupped his fists and bid farewell.
It was enough to point out the two places to them, proving that the fishy smell he smelled was indeed not a good thing. As for the rest, if the Town Guard Division could not do it well, it would be none of his business.
If the Town Guard Division encircled and suppressed these four evil sect fiends, he would also have merit, but unfortunately, the merit was too little. From Rank Nine Merit to Rank Eight Merit, it was a bit beneath his notice now.
The next morning, Chu Zhiyuan slowly came to the outside of Bilin Pavilion.
He already knew that Xiao Ruoling and Li Hongzhao were drinking tea here today.
He sat down in a tea shop in the distance, sipping tea while examining Li Hongzhao's realm. He wanted to figure out the gap between himself and her now, and whether he had a chance of winning.
If he had no chance of winning, he would have to practice miraculous skills fiercely.
It would be best to find Li Hongzhao's weakness. The emperor's wool was not easy to fleece.
If he could not defeat Li Hongzhao this time, he was afraid that he would not have another chance to fleece the emperor's wool. It required Rank Five Merit to exchange for dragon fat incense, and it was too difficult to obtain Rank Five Merit. Fleecing the emperor's wool was faster.
After finishing a cup of tea, he went to the Supervisory Division.
