In the backyard of the Yam Hall.
Chung Shen-soo was dressed in a plain white robe, white trousers, and white cloth shoes. His face was pale, and he seemed very weak.
There was a reason why martial artists named the first heavenly trial 'Blood Transformation'.
When he replenished his life force, some of his wasted blood was expelled from his body. Every day, blood would seep out from his pores on his bedsheets.
This was when martial artists were at their weakest.
Fortunately, the Yam Hall sold medicine. Chung Shen-soo grabbed a bowl of Ten Complete Tonic Soup and drank it every day to replenish his Qi and blood. Occasionally, he would go out and kill a few people to calm the Five Elements Bandit Palm in his body. He passed the day in peace.
'Blood Transformation for martial artists takes about a hundred days. Now that two months have passed, I'm more than halfway done …'
He came to a small square. There were stone dumbbells, wooden stakes, and sandbags specially used for the disciples of the Yam Hall to train their muscles and bones.
Stonefeather and Lu Yang had bitter expressions on their faces as they used their palms to hit two small sandbags that emitted a medicinal fragrance.
Beside him was Wei Baishu with a straight face. "My Mountain Herb Hall's Medicinal Sand Palm requires you to hit a special bag of medicinal sand every day, so that the medicinal power of the medicinal herbs inside can seep into your palm. So don't be afraid of pain, don't be afraid of breaking the skin and bleeding … Hit him, hit him hard! Remember the mantra when you use your palms! "
When he saw that the posture was not right, he whipped them with a vine. He was very strict.
Chung Shen-soo was amused and said with a smile, "Senior Uncle, please take a seat and rest …"
"I'm not tired. These two rascals don't know how much good fortune they've accumulated … Back in the day, the disciples of the Yam Hall had to gather their own medicinal ingredients to practice the Medicinal Sand Palm. We provided these two. If we don't work hard, wouldn't it be a waste?"
Wei Baishu said angrily.
Practicing the Medicinal Sand Palm required special medicinal ingredients, such as these special sandbags. Without them, even if one had a complete mantra, hitting a normal sandbag would only cripple one's hands!
Even if Xun Liuyi wanted to practice, he had no money and could not buy medicinal ingredients, so he could only lament his inadequacy.
Comparatively speaking, Stonefeather and Lu Yang could really be said to be lucky.
After all, although the Mountain Medicine Sect was large, it had many disciples. Now that the Mountain Medicine Hall had a large surplus, it only needed to nurture two people. Naturally, it was a great advantage.
Wei Baishu looked at Chung Shen-soo in surprise.
Initially, he was prepared to hand over most of the profits from the Mountain Herb Hall to Xun Liuyi.
Who would have thought that this kid would be able to learn the Five Elements Great Thief Palm without making any noise or spending any money? This was an unbelievable thing.
But precisely because of this, he let out a long sigh of relief. At least the Mountain Medicine Hall's profits could be maintained, and if it continued to operate, he would be able to train other disciples.
"These two little fellows will probably need half a year or even a year to master the first level of Medicinal Sand Palm. If they want to reach the fifth level, not only will they need perseverance and hard work, they will also need a bit of luck …"
Chung Shen-soo glanced at the two kids and made his judgment.
The fifth level of Medicinal Sand Palm was a relatively stable path for them to cultivate the Five Elements Great Thief Palm after building a solid foundation.
"The Medicinal Sand Palm has five levels, and the Five Elements Great Thief Palm has three levels. Adding them together, there are eight levels of grading system. I wonder how many levels of Outer Court, Inner Court, True Disciple, Outer Court Elder, Inner Court Elder …"
"Of course, the reality is that some people will not be able to master it even if they have a peerless technique manual, and some geniuses will not be able to cultivate it …"
Chung Shen-soo's thoughts began to wander.
Wei Baishu had long lost track of Xun Liuyi's progress in martial arts. He thought that Xun Liuyi was thinking about some profound martial arts theory, so he did not dare to disturb him.
"When I'm done with the blood transformation and have the strength to enter the Ranking List of Young Masters, I'll go and destroy the Three Mountains Sect first …"
Chung Shen-soo thought to himself. Suddenly, he looked at the wall of the courtyard.
There, a black figure flashed past.
Although the other party had run away, the dense five qi was different from that of an ordinary person. It was a martial arts expert.
"A martial arts expert is spying on us? Jiuyuan Sect? Or some other faction? "
Chung Shen-soo coughed. "If not for the fact that I'm not in a good state, I would have chased after him and fed him the Five Elements Great Thief Palm …"
Due to the blood transformation, the sacrifices he had been looking for were all ordinary people without any martial arts skills. That was why he was able to kill them in one go.
Otherwise, if he used too much qi and fought with brute force, the blood transformation process would be affected, and his foundation would not be complete. That would be a real pity.
"I hope he's not an enemy. He won't force me to that extent …"
Chung Shen-soo looked in the direction the black figure left in, and a dangerous glint appeared in his eyes.
…
Qi Lianfeng was a saber user.
The name of Quick Blade Qi Laoliu was well-known in the underworld of the nearby Jianghu.
Everyone knew that Qi Laoliu's saber was very fast. It was so fast that the enemy would not even notice when the saber flashed.
Moreover, this person was a lone wolf, or rather, an assassin.
After all, in the Pugilistic World, only martial arts could be exchanged for money.
He had once killed 37 people without missing a single one. This time, he had received a big deal.
"Remnants of the Mountain Medicine Gang … Tsk tsk, I like the way the Three Mountains Sect exterminates the weeds!"
Qi Lianfeng walked a few streets and arrived at the inn where he was staying. He took out a map of the Mountain Medicine Hall that was recently drawn.
He was ruthless, but he was not reckless. That was the reason why he could be so carefree after so many years in the Pugilistic World.
"Among the old and young in the Mountain Medicine Hall, only Wei Baishu and Xun Liu are worth a glance. Wei Baishu is old, and his martial arts skills have greatly deteriorated. Master Qi can kill him with three slashes, and the rest can only last one slash. Only this Xun Liu … Tsk tsk, he actually mastered the Five Elements Great Thief Palm. No wonder the Three Mountains Sect can't eat or sleep in peace. Even if they don't kill the others, they must kill this person!"
Qi Lianfeng knew that the Three Mountains Sect had actually noticed the Mountain Medicine Hall a long time ago. However, because they were part of the Mountain Medicine Hall, they would definitely be seen as a provocation by the Jiuyuan Sect if they entered An Mountain City en masse to seek revenge. It would be very troublesome.
However, it was not that the Three Mountains Sect did not know how to be flexible, and they would not give their enemies a chance to grow. Since they could not do anything themselves, they secretly hired the famous Swift Blade Qi Lianfeng to eliminate the danger in the bud.
As for Qi Lianfeng's Swift Blade Flying Sand, to be honest, even the leader of the Mountain Medicine Gang might not be a match for him.
Therefore, the assassin's heart was filled with confidence at this moment.
He had already tried his best to think highly of Xun Liu, raising him to the level of the leader of the Mountain Medicine Gang and the people of the Mountain Medicine Hall, but he still thought that he could succeed.
"In reality, how could a guy who has only practiced martial arts for a few days be as skilled and experienced as the leader of the Mountain Medicine Gang?"
Qi Lianfeng took out his Swift Blade and slowly wiped it. He had already decided that he would make his move tonight. He would go in the dark and eliminate the entire Mountain Medicine Hall!
