At night, the rain washed away the smell of blood in the county city. A day full of killing had finally ended, but everyone was still in a state of panic.
In the battle during the day, four of the top ten geniuses had died, and thirteen of the Mercury Realm elders of the major families had been killed by Zhou Yang.
If Zhou Yang had not stopped being possessed, the county city would have been littered with corpses.
That night, almost everyone shut their doors, and the city was eerily quiet.
In the mountains behind the Institute of Martial Arts.
Inside the white jade cave abode.
Zhou Yang slowly woke up from his coma and found himself lying in a pool. The water in the pool was milky white, and it felt very smooth.
"What is this?"
Looking at the milky white water covering his body, Zhou Yang frowned.
In the battle during the day, his injuries were extremely serious, and he was almost on the verge of death. He fainted in the evening. He thought that even if he didn't die this time, he would need to recuperate for a few months to recover. But now, he suddenly found that his injuries were almost healed.
He guessed that it was because of the pool.
"You're awake?"
An old voice woke Zhou Yang from his thoughts. He got up and saw that it was the guardian elder.
"Elder!"
Zhou Yang hurriedly got up and cupped his hands.
"No need for formalities." The guardian elder shook his head and asked, "How do you feel now?"
"I'm almost recovered. But Elder, what is this water? Why is it so powerful?" Zhou Yang asked doubtfully.
"Haha …" The guardian elder laughed. "This is the Heavenly Flower Dew."
"Heavenly Flower Dew!"
Zhou Yang was shocked. He had seen it in the Alchemy Scripture before. This Heavenly Flower Dew was a first-class treasure. Even Earth Fiend Stars might not have it.
Not only could it revive the dead, but it could also cleanse one's marrow and expand one's meridians. It was a treasure that all warriors dreamed of.
"This Heavenly Flower Dew was obtained by Senior Brother Tianfeng after much difficulty. Today, you can use it all as compensation." The guardian elder shook his head and sighed.
"Compensation … he doesn't owe me anything, and he did nothing wrong." Zhou Yang shook his head. In fact, Tianfeng Dean did not owe him anything. If it were him, he might not be willing to meddle in other people's business either. After all, he was just too weak.
"Do you really think so?"
The voice came from behind the guardian elder. It was Tianfeng Dean.
"Senior brother, I'll take my leave first." The guardian elder nodded his head and turned around to leave the cave.
"Senior, do you think you did something wrong?" Zhou Yang asked.
Dean Tianfeng smiled bitterly, "I was wrong from the start, but I didn't want to admit it, so I made mistakes again and again, almost leading to a big mistake."
Zhou Yang didn't continue to struggle on this issue. He only said, "Today, you said that you wanted to talk to me about the Black Scale Cave and my ancestors. I wonder …"
"Let's talk about this later. The Heavenly Flower Dew is a good item. You should seize this opportunity and not waste it." Dean Tianfeng interrupted Zhou Yang and took out a small bottle. He opened it and dripped a few drops of water into the pool. "What is this?" Zhou Yang asked.
"It's clean water. It'll help you cleanse your marrow later. Now, circulate your energy."
Purification …
Although it wasn't that he was unwilling to accept Principal Tianfeng's goodwill, he had no choice but to accept it. If he gave up halfway, it would be a waste of resources.
Immediately, he operated his True Qi. While absorbing the Spiritual Qi in the water, he used his True Qi to adjust his body and keep his body in an active state.
A moment later, the zhenqi in his body began to flow rapidly, and his blood began to boil.
"Bloop bloop …"
Bubbles emerged from the water, and the water in the pool began to boil under Zhou Yang's True Qi. A moment later, traces of black liquid appeared around Zhou Yang's body.
Purification, the second purification!
With the previous experience, he wasn't surprised this time. It was just that the strange itch made him very uncomfortable.
An hour later, black filth floated on the surface of the water. However, after Dean Tianfeng poured a few more drops of clean water, it became white again.
Buzz …
A ripple spread out, and Zhou Yang felt his body become light as if he could float. Even the Body Locking Bracelet on his wrist that had been closed was instantly opened.
However, this feeling only lasted for a moment. Soon, the Body Locking Bracelet locked his body again, and the light feeling was replaced by a heavy feeling.
Purification, a success!
At the same time, the remaining internal injuries in his body were all healed at this moment. What surprised him even more was that his meridians were now even more unobstructed.
"It's really a good thing."
The Heavenly Flower Dew could cleanse the marrow and expand the meridians.
Purification was to develop the body, and expanding the meridians could make the zhenqi flow faster.
This change seemed very subtle, but it had a great impact on the combat effectiveness.
For example, with the same cultivation level, an ordinary person could condense the Scarlet Flame True Fire in ten seconds, but because of his wide meridians, the zhenqi flow was faster, and only needed five seconds.
"X is the fastest, Q is the fastest; |"
The difference was obvious.
After about half an hour, the changes in his meridians finally stopped. Under his inner vision, Zhou Yang was surprised to find that his meridians had expanded twice as much as before.
"Rumble …"
The speed of the zhenqi flow in his body doubled at this moment, and the violent zhenqi flowed through his whole body in half the time. At the same time, the speed of absorbing the power of heaven and earth also doubled.
One of the advantages of a main Star Soul was that the cultivation speed of an ordinary person was four times faster, and now because his meridians were more unobstructed, it was five times faster.
This would allow him to have an advantage in cultivation when facing the same owner of a main Star Soul.
"Crackle …"
Suddenly, the small flame in his body burned fiercely, and the temperature began to evaporate the water in the pool. Zhou Yang only felt his cultivation level rapidly rising at this moment.
"Boom …"
The barrier broke instantly, and the violent zhenqi caused the Scarlet Flame's fire seed to release clusters of flames.
The ninth level of the Martian realm!
After a while, Zhou Yang slowly heaved a sigh of relief.
It had been almost a year since he started cultivating, and he had finally reached the ninth level of the Martian realm. One more step and he would be at the Mercury realm.
Once he reached the Mercury realm, he would no longer be a genius in the county city. At that time, he would be a genius disciple of the Tiangang Sword Sect like Zhou Xianxian and the others.
The county city was just his starting point.
However, he also understood that it was a hundred times harder for him to break through to the Mercury realm because he cultivated the Beast Fire Sutra. Other than cultivating the Scarlet Flame to the ninth level, he also had to find a fire exotic beast, or he would not be able to break through.
"Congratulations, Zhou Yang." The Tianfeng dean smiled.
Zhou Yang opened his eyes, and a glint flashed in them.
"Thank you, Senior."
"No need to thank me. This is what you deserve." The Tianfeng dean shook his head, as if he was lost in memories.
Zhou Yang did not disturb him. He just put on his clothes, and then sat cross-legged by the pool to stabilize his cultivation.
"It's been a hundred years. In the blink of an eye, it's been a hundred years. I wonder how Big Brother is doing."
After a while, the Tianfeng dean sighed. At that moment, his face was full of vicissitudes, as if he was no longer the almighty number one expert in the county city, but an old man with one foot in the grave.
