Ten days later, Zuo Zhicheng returned to the city gate of New Continent.
His face was covered in stubble. His body, which had been very strong after the transformation of the corpse meridian, was now slightly thinner and weaker. However, one could see streaks of light in his eyes from time to time. They were filled with indifference and coldness. He did not do anything unnecessary. As he moved forward, the people around him subconsciously retreated.
It was obvious that Zuo Zhicheng had gained a lot from his tough training this time. After all, if an ordinary person persisted in this kind of training, they would probably freeze to death within a day. Even with Zuo Zhicheng's willpower, there were times when the thought of giving up popped up in his mind.
Therefore, although the time was short and his body was slightly damaged, his mental power had improved tremendously. He had also achieved some success in the Cold Light Wave Sword.
Martial artists trained their bodies in the Qi Cultivation stage and trained their mental power in the Spirit Cultivation stage. The Spirit Cultivation stage was divided into three stages: Self Form, Human Form, and Dharma Form. After reaching Human Form, one would be able to use various mental powers to attack or assist.
For example, the Red Sun Monk's Invisible Sun Fire could produce a burning sensation. Another example was Jiang Tien-cheng's Qi Nurturing Haoran, which could accurately sense others.
The Red Sun Monk's Heart Scene was the one that produced the illusion of a sun behind his head and caused a burning effect in a large area. It was an offensive technique that could only be used by martial artists who had reached Human Form. It was also a technique that allowed Human Form martial artists to ignore the difference in numbers and suppress those who were below Human Form.
The Cold Light Wave Sword that Zuo Zhicheng was currently cultivating was a profound true martial art that was divided into two parts: the body and the mind. He had already learned all the physical attacks, but he had now mastered a total of three mental techniques that were compatible with these attacks.
The first was the Cold Light Wave Sword's Heart Scene, Ice Soul Freezing Magic Field. Once this Heart Scene was used, it could cause all enemies within a hundred meters of Zuo Zhicheng to feel as if they were in the snowy plains of Siberia. It would cause various effects such as speed reduction, numbness, and frostbite.
The other two sword techniques were Finger Flicking Ice Thunder and Sky Frost Ice Qi. As for the remaining four methods, he had yet to master them.
Other than the gains in martial arts, Zuo Zhicheng's biggest gain was the rapid improvement in his dao techniques. Ever since his body had been modified, Zuo Zhicheng's cultivation speed had become faster and faster. He estimated that in about ten days, he would be able to take another step forward and reach the realm of "leakless" in dao techniques.
Then, he would be able to get rid of the situation where his Dao techniques lacked offensive means due to his insufficient realm.
Zuo Zhicheng had now returned to New Continent. Firstly, the effect of Ascetic Training on him was not as great as it had been in the beginning. His body was about to reach its limit, so he had to stop for a while. The second was the Underworld Serpent King in the ruins of the Dog Head Mountain. It was time to deal with it.
…
Upon returning to the martial arts center, Zuo Zhicheng went straight to his room and lay down. After so many days, his nerves were too tense. Even if he was in deep sleep, he slept until midnight.
Although many people came to look for him during this period, after hearing that he was resting, no one dared to disturb him.
When Zuo Zhicheng opened his eyes, the moon was already high in the sky. His stomach made a strange noise. It was the sound of starvation.
After all, he did not bring any psionic food when he went out for Ascetic Training. That would be too comfortable, and the effect of training his willpower would be reduced.
Zuo Zhicheng took out a psionic fruit from a secret compartment under his bed and ate it in a few bites. Although the Ascetic Training during this period of time had trained his willpower and body, it had also caused some damage to his body. He still needed to replenish his nutrients. After these damages were healed, his body would become stronger.
This was the most basic principle of all human body training.
At this moment, Zuo Zhicheng's ears twitched slightly. He walked towards the door and opened it. He saw a woman sleeping on a deck chair.
The woman's skin was soft and white. Under the moonlight, it seemed to emit a faint fluorescent light. She also had a pair of long eyelashes. Coupled with her delicate facial features, it almost made people hold their breath. They could not bear to blaspheme this unpleasant scene.
However, Zuo Zhicheng did not seem to care about this. He pushed Qing Yueqiu's shoulder slightly. "Qing Yueqiu?"
Her eyelashes trembled slightly. She woke up in a daze. "You're awake?"
"Yes." Zuo Zhicheng nodded slightly. He said expressionlessly, "You're looking for me?"
"Nothing." Qing Yueqiu's daze only lasted for a moment before it completely disappeared from her face. She said in an expressionless tone, "Are you okay?"
After saying this, her heartbeat quickened slightly. This was the first time she showed concern for a man. However, there was no change in her cold face.
"I'm fine. Is that what you want to ask?"
"I heard that you couldn't wake up from your sleep. I was a little worried. After all, the operation near New Continent will depend on you." Qing Yueqiu nodded slightly.
"Oh right, you know Yao Youwei, right?"
"Yes, he's the son of New Continent's mayor. What about him?"
Qing Yueqiu paused for a moment before saying, "Actually, he doesn't know my real identity. He doesn't know much about the martial arts world or Dao techniques. Because he doesn't have any talent, his father, Yao Jinzhong, only wants him to live a wealthy and peaceful life. Because of this, he pampers Yao Youwei a little. "
Hearing this, Zuo Zhicheng basically understood. He asked casually, "What did he do to offend me?"
"Yes, he brought the people from the Hai Long Gang and took away all the matches. He even asked them for the formula." Qing Yueqiu smiled helplessly. "It seems like he saw the potential of the matches and wanted to take a share of it."
"Yao Youwei doesn't care. What about Yao Jinzhong?" Yao Jinzhong was the mayor of New Continent City.
"He …" Qing Yueqiu's lips curled up slightly. She seemed to have thought of something interesting.
…
In the living room of the Yao Residence, Yao Youwei was entertaining his friends at the table.
As the mayor's son, he was naturally the center of attention and compliments.
A fat man with a body full of fat toasted Yao Youwei. "Brother Yao, I really admire the Sea Dragon Gang's matter this time. You can turn your hand over like the wind, and turn your hand over like the rain. It really made me dumbfounded. You easily took over this business.
I'm impressed! I'm impressed! "
"Haha, that's nothing. Those bumpkins." Yao Youwei said proudly, "They don't understand the significance of the matches. They're not poisonous, convenient, durable, and easy to store. They definitely have unlimited potential." Speaking of this, he shook his head. "But it's also because they're too powerful that I reckon we'll have to split the money we earn."
Another young man said, "I heard that the Hai Long Gang has an underworld background and is related to the Wushu associations. The Haoran Martial Arts Center has been very popular recently …"
