Chapter 163: The drug dealer’s little green bottle? The originally gentle and pure true energy seemed to turn into red-hot molten iron, causing extreme pain to the meridians wherever it passed through. Zhao Wumian was on high alert, this was a critical moment and he had to facilitate the transformation of his true temperament. Otherwise, your Dantian will be damaged, and you will not be able to break through. Instead, your power will be greatly reduced, or even go astray. Zhao Wumian pinched seals on his hands to assist in the circulation of Qi, and activated "Senluo Wanxiang" with all his strength, compressing the Qi inwards and forcing the liquid Qi to transform into a more condensed state. The power of top-level skills is revealed! As the magical power was circulated, the form of the true energy between the palms kept changing. Under the high pressure, at a certain moment, the quantitative change finally led to a qualitative change. The true energy that was as turbulent as water suddenly stagnated. Zhao Wumian seemed to hear a loud noise like the creation of the world. With a click, the surging river began to freeze! Liquid true qi turns into solid state! The density increased further, and the space within the Dantian shrank rapidly, eventually forming a "golden pill". ——Reenter Tiantai again and the clouds will open. With one golden pill, you will be able to transform yourself into a mortal. The word "golden elixir" was first proposed by Zhong and Lu, who were also the ones who perfected the practice of middle elixir in the fourth realm. There is no end to martial arts. Since ancient times, countless sages have walked on the path of cultivation. At first, they could only grope forward, and everyone had his own understanding. As the times changed, generations of heroes summarized and concluded, and finally the cultivation method entered thousands of households. Zhongli Quan and Lu Dongbin were the founders of the orthodox training methods of the fourth realm. Lu Zu was also the first person to propose the concept of "Dharma Image" - the Qi technique and golden elixir were passed down in the world, like the sky, the earth and the human body!
The moment when the golden elixir condenses. Zhao Wumian's spirit and energy were sublimated again. Within a radius of a hundred feet, all changes were in his mind. He could clearly feel that his spiritual awareness had been transformed and strengthened. Sitting cross-legged in Xiri Cave, he could sense the wind blowing in the cave. The breeze blew over the Ambergris tea tree, and the trembling of each leaf on it could be clearly distinguished. The wind blades and rain arrows outside the cave were waiting to be fired, silently accumulating the energy of the earth and the heaven and earth. He could even hear the sound of blood flowing in his veins when he calmed down... Breakthrough successful. The five senses are greatly enhanced! Zhao Wumian successfully broke through the Dharma Image! The Taotie beast in the Dantian became more solid, and the feeling of being alive became stronger and stronger, as if every move could mobilize the true energy and was about to transform into a physical Dharma image. The fourth realm has four levels: [planting the mind], [transforming things], [synesthesia], and [shaping the body], which directly point to the connection between heaven and man. The higher the realm, the deeper the perception of heaven and earth, and the greater the power borrowed. In addition to the accumulation of true energy, breaking through the realm also requires the perception of the human heart. [Planting the mind] means that when the Dharma image is initially formed, the body moves with the mind. 【化物】means that the Dharma images are solid and the mind and intention are in harmony. 【Synesthesia】 is the correspondence between heaven and man, and the mind moves according to the momentum. [Body sculpting] is the unity of man and image, using the laws of heaven and earth. After the fourth level of body shaping, man and the Dharma image are combined, which is the fifth level, the Lapis Lazuli Level, the beginning of longevity. It is too early to think about it now. Zhao Wumian has just entered the fourth realm, and even the magic image has not been condensed yet, but he has made a start. Now his strange array can be opened to a radius of 100 feet. He can open the eight arrays, perform strange magic, and control the eight divine powers. “It feels so fulfilling.” Zhao Wumian opened his eyes, felt the power surging in his body, and felt excited. It turns out that strength is the foundation! The earth energy blessing of the Heavenly Book is false after all, and it does not feel easy to control, but there is more earth energy that can be controlled.
Finally breaking through the fourth realm, Zhao Wumian is now capable enough to stand on equal footing with the elders of the major sects in the martial arts world. None of the eight major sects have many people in the fourth realm. For example, the Yin-Yang Sect has only four people, namely Donghuang Taiyi, Yueshen, Yunzhongjun, and Dasiming. Now Dongjun has been added, and there are only a handful of them. Mingjian Villa and Tiandao Sect have slightly more four-realm masters, not counting those old monsters, there are only six or seven contemporary ones. Except for Shaolin and Wudang, the two top martial arts sects, it is extremely difficult for other sects to produce a four-realm master. One can imagine how rare and difficult it is to create a Dharma image. Zhao Wumian walked out of the cave feeling refreshed. "Master! Master!" Xiao Kui flew over and landed on his shoulder, followed by his followers. He asked, "Did it work?" "It's done." Zhao Wumian touched its head and said, "Why are you guarding here? Aren't you taking a hot spring bath in the Marquis' Mansion?" "Boss Shen asked me to tell you good news!" Xiaokui learned many of her words from Zhao Wumian, including the way she addresses Shen Weiyang. Zhao Wumian likes to call Shen Weiyang "Boss Shen", so Xiaokui learned to do the same. Shen Weiyang found it quite amusing and was too lazy to correct him. Zhao Wumian asked: "What news?" Xiao Kui said excitedly: "The drug dealer has appeared!" Zhao Wumian raised his eyebrows: "Where is he? When did the news come back?" Xiao Kui said: "Taiyuan, Shanxi! This morning!" Zhao Wumian immediately asked, "Is it still a ghost market?" Xiao Kui nodded: "She asked you to go to Que Tower after you come out." The Que Tower is located in the southwest corner of Wanjing Villa. It is an independent three-story wooden building located in the bamboo forest. The environment is quiet and shaded by trees. Shen Weiyang has transformed it into a bird habitat. In addition to the six spiritual birds, there are also Xiaokui's hawk followers, who serve them with delicious food and drink. When Zhao Wumian entered Que Tower, Shen Weiyang was sorting out information from various places on the third floor. When Shen Weiyang saw him, he just breathed a sigh of relief, then he pulled him to sit next to him and showed him the information. After her previous achievements, she has gained a new understanding of Zhao Wumian's abilities. What's more, breaking through a realm is not the same as creating new skills. Once the skills go astray, the path of martial arts will go astray thereafter. But breaking through a realm will not be the same. Even if you fail, the worst that can happen is a fall in realm or going astray. These are all minor problems. This time she was not too worried and went straight to the point, handing Zhao Wumian some information that she thought was important. The Shen family has a huge business. Shen Weiyang has the inheritance left by his father, the Persian merchant Musimbo. Since taking over, the business has been booming. He also has land, manors, restaurants, inns, etc. given by his adoptive father. This is a huge fortune! She started learning business from her adoptive father at the age of ten, and knew that if she wanted to make a lot of money, she had to take advantage of price differences and identify trends, which required a lot of intelligence! So, her shop has an extra task. It is to organize the information from the guests into intelligence and report it to her. Some customers are talkative and you can learn a lot from just a few words. Some customers are taciturn, but their actions don't lie. They can tell a lot about what they are selling and what they are buying. [Nine-turn Soul-Restoring Pill] is a rare elixir that cannot possibly come out of nothing. This medicine is difficult to refine, and what is even more difficult is the rare natural treasures needed to refine it!
As long as we can find out where these rare treasures go, we may be able to know where the medicine comes from. Shen Weiyang said, "I followed the path of the medicinal materials and found some things. The main ingredient of the [Nine-section Resurrection Pill] is [Nine-section Calamus]. This spiritual material is very strange. Every time a section grows, the medicinal power doubles. Below three sections is the Yellow Grade, which is similar to the Red Ginseng. Below six sections is the Mysterious Grade, and the medicinal properties begin to increase. Above six sections is the Earth Grade, and growth begins to become difficult. It takes more than a hundred years to grow one section. Each additional section increases the grade by one level. Once the middle is dug out, the medicinal power is fixed. Therefore, there are very few nine-section ones on the market, and the [Nine-section Resurrection Pill] has also become extremely precious..." Zhao Wumian asked, "Does the Shen family's store have nine-section calamus?" Shen Weiyang shook her head, "This kind of spiritual material, even if you don't make medicine, taking a whole plant orally can bring back the dead to life. No one will sell it. The ones on the market are four or five sections, and even six sections are rare... There are no nine-section calamus in the store, and no one buys nine sections, but some people buy a lot of calamus with less than six sections!" "Ok?" Zhao Wumian frowned. What does that mean? They have little green bottles too? Shen Weiyang said: "Those people can't speak, and can't hear, but every medicine buyer has a high ability to identify medicines. Some people in other shops intend to mix other medicinal materials, and they can smell that there are a few fakes mixed in among a pile of medicines just by smelling..." Zhao Wumian pondered and said, "Carefully cultivate... There is a lot of influence behind this. It's not such a coincidence. There is a high probability that these two parties are in the same group." Shen Weiyang nodded: "I guess so. They don't know martial arts, they only know how to identify medicine. The people in the ghost market secretly captured them and searched their souls, but they couldn't find anything..." Zhao Wumian was surprised: "Then how do they transport the goods? Where do they transport the goods? Can't find the source by following the clues? Is there such a thing?" Shen Weiyang was helpless: "This is the weirdest part of the whole thing. Their way of delivery is also very strange. After buying them, they just scattered them into the river, and then all the herbs disappeared..." "Oh?" Zhao Wumian sat up straight and became alert. "Interesting! Deaf-mute people buy goods and use water to transport them... Either someone is hiding underwater, or someone knows how to control fish. The former is unnecessary and cannot be concealed. If it is the latter... Could it be a mermaid?" Mermaids are beautiful and good at singing. Their singing can control sea beasts, and driving fish is also a piece of cake. "Or someone who understands the language of beasts?" Just like the previous "animal lover" Li Yuliang. When Zhao Wumian was transporting military supplies to the Peking, he was the one who drove the Sky-Swallowing Whale to stop him. Shen Weiyang said: "It's still uncertain now, but the buyer is hard to find, but the seller has appeared again. He really went around in circles in the ghost market of Taiyuan, Shanxi. He also knows that he is very famous now, so he did not trade privately as usual. Instead, he stayed at the largest inn in the ghost market of Taiyuan, 'Feng Qiwu', and advertised that he wanted to sell another four [Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pills]." Zhao Wumian nodded and said with a smile, "Very smart. In this way, the ghost market will not dare to act rashly." "Exactly." Shen Weiyang said: "Even if it is a Ghost Lord, it is still okay to 'buy' the elixir. But if they want to capture this person and monopolize this mysterious skill that can be used to refine a large number of earth-level top-grade elixirs, others will definitely attack in groups! By then, the Ghost Market will not be able to resist. This is an elixir that can restore internal and external injuries to their original state in a short period of time. It is too precious!" Zhao Wumian took one pill and knew how effective this medicine was. The recovery speed is comparable to turning back time! "Taiyuan, Shanxi..." Zhao Wumian sighed and leaned back in his chair: "I've only been back for less than two months, I don't want to go out..." Shen Weiyang smiled, buried her head in his arms, and said softly: "I don't want you to go out either. Here is another message, read it before making a decision." She held out a piece of paper. Zhao Wumian took it and looked at it. There were a few words written on it: [Zuixianlou, Tianzi Room No. 3. Li.] Zhao Wumian immediately knew who he was and sneered, "I thought he could endure it for a few more days."
Shen Weiyang asked, "Is it really Li Tianran? He was wearing a mask. Shopkeeper Du said that this man was about 40 or 50 years old and had a scar on his face." "it's him." Zhao Wumian was 100% sure: "There is a trace of Mohist Qi left on this paper. It can't be fake." Shen Weiyang asked: "Then what is he doing here?" Zhao Wumian revealed Li Tianran's identity as a member of the Yujing Society. "He saw Guo Wuwei attack me with his own eyes. How could he not have any thoughts? What if Guo Wuwei decides to settle for second best someday? The Yujing Society has everything else, but there must be people like Guo Wuwei! 'Twelve Towers and Five Cities', even if only one or two of these seventeen people need to possess bodies, it would be enough to scare him. Others don't know the true thoughts of this group of people, but Li Tianran already knows, so he will definitely not be a fish on the chopping board. [Seven Killings] is not a person who will sit and wait for death." Shen Weiyang nodded: "The last time I saw him, I felt that this person was very arrogant under his politeness. This is good. I was worried that you two would become enemies. The Mo family's background is definitely not less than Gongshu's. I don't know how many Yanjia he has on him. If you can avoid taking action, try not to take action." Things like Yanjia are indeed difficult to guard against. Lin Xianrong already has a fourth-level [Mars] and almost got [Taibai Star]. Who knows how many Li Tianran has on him. "Are you going to see him?" "See." Zhao Wumian narrowed his eyes. "It is undeniable that Li Tianran is a very good partner. He worked together from the inside and outside to kill Guo Wuwei and destroy the Yujing Society. This account must be settled!" …… Zuixianlou's business is still booming. In the evening, as the sun sets, in Room No. 3, Li Tianran sits cross-legged on the bed practicing his internal energy. Tuk Tuk—— Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Li Tianran had to stop and look over, then heard someone say outside: "Guest, the hot water is here." "..." Li Tianran wanted to say that he didn't want any water, but then he changed his mind and smiled: "Come in." A young waiter with ordinary looks came in with a basin of water. He kicked the door shut with his right foot and threw the basin onto the counter, letting the water splash. He turned around and sat down on a chair. He flicked out four sound-absorbing stones with his fingers, blocking the four corners of the room, and said, "We're meeting, why bother changing our appearance?" As he spoke, his facial features changed and turned back into Zhao Wumian's appearance. Li Tianran got off the bed and said with a smile, "My disguise was not in vain if Marquis Wu Jing brought me some water. Be careful, you can never imagine who the spy of Yujing Society is. Last time I was able to see you in my true form, but if I see you again now, everyone will know that something is wrong... I never thought you could survive that situation." Li Tianran was knowledgeable and recognized the divine weapons [Eight Desolations Sun-Shooting Bow] and [Four Symbols Sun-Shooting Arrows]! Even though Zhao Wumian was shot and injured, he was still able to escape from the hands of a fifth-level master. It was simply unbelievable! Zhao Wumian's face was grim: "He didn't catch me, so he must be very angry." Li Tianran said: "I am not from Chongyang Tower, so I don't know, but I think, most likely, the legendary Chongyang Tower Master is not a good-tempered person." Zhao Wumian raised his eyebrows: "Chongyang Tower?" Li Tianran said, "I thought you already knew about the White Jade Capital in the sky, the five cities and twelve towers... Didn't you pry it out from the two White Lotus Sect members? This doesn't look like the Wu Jinghou I know." He smiled and said, "Especially since he created his own magical skill, Wu Jinghou...there's no need for us to test each other."
"..." Zhao Wumian looked at him seriously and asked, "What do you want from me?" Li Tianran's expression straightened up, and he uttered two words: "Cooperation!" Then he said: "To show my sincerity, I can directly give you a base of Yujing Society so that you can get revenge!" (End of this chapter)
