As one of the Ten Great Barbarian Kings, Shi Shafeng was conferred the title of the Strongest Warrior and was the main general of the Barbarian Army. Even though he was about to be executed, he was not afraid at all. Instead, he bowed and said, "Everything will wait until Princess Mingyu and Lord Taigeng are rescued. I, Shafeng, am willing to accept my death."
Huangfu Zhanxiong calmed down the anger in his heart and asked, "Alright, I will allow you to punish me after this matter is over. Now, tell me what the Great Xia wants. I will comply with everything they say, as long as Mingyu is safe."
Shi Shafeng made a long story short and told Huangfu Zhanxiong everything from the beginning to the end.
"A young man from the Great Xia is already so powerful. Could it be that he is from one of the great forces of the country?" Huangfu Zhanxiong murmured to himself with a puzzled expression. After a pause, he waved his hand and said, "First, prepare the compensation according to his compensation method. As long as Mingyu is safe, we can still take revenge in the future."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Shi Shafeng replied.
Subsequently, Shi Shafeng ordered his men to gather the compensation items. In less than half a day, everything was ready. He led this compensation team and rushed to the Wolf Smoke Mountain Range at full speed.
This time, the compensation team was relatively large. Even the Barbarian Emperor was personally dispatched. This showed how much the Barbarian Emperor valued his daughter.
…
In the middle of the Wolf Smoke Mountain Range, there was a waterfall that looked like an upside-down river of stars. It was gorgeous and colorful, and its momentum was shocking.
Under this waterfall, there was a bare-chested youth standing there, receiving the incessant assault of the waterfall. However, he stood there motionless like a pillar, allowing the majestic waves to batter him endlessly.
The meridians in the young man's body surged like a river. A large amount of water Xuan Energy seeped into his body through his feet and the skin and flesh all over his body. This energy continuously flowed into his Dantian. His Dantian was emitting the purest energy from his Dantian.
In the past few days, Yang Wu had been practicing under the waterfall. The strength in his body had accumulated to the peak, and his 365 acupoints had been completely perfected. At this stage, he could "transform his qi into armor", which was the symbol of the General Realm.
In reality, Yang Wu had already been able to use more than two hundred acupoints to achieve the step of transforming qi into armor. Now that he had perfected all three hundred and sixty-five acupoints, it was even easier for him to achieve this step. However, he did not attempt to break through to the Human General realm. Once he broke through, his three hundred and sixty-five acupoints would become one, and the other hidden acupoints would no longer be connected. In the future, his Circulatory Cycle would revolve around these three hundred and sixty-five acupoints, and his foundation would be fixed at this step.
Little Hei had asked him to open seven hundred and twenty acupoints. Yang Wu had discovered that many of his acupoints had not been opened yet, so he decided to do as Little Hei said. He would wait until he had opened seven hundred and twenty acupoints.
The other acupoints were hidden mysteriously, and some of them were inconspicuous, as if they were of no importance. Many people would directly ignore them, and it was extremely difficult to open them. This was also the reason why many people would only attempt to break through to the General Realm after opening three hundred and sixty-five acupoints.
He had been practicing under the waterfall for the past few days, and he increasingly understood that the human body had great potential. If he could build a solid foundation, he would be able to go even further in the future.
On this day, with the help of Little Hei's medicinal liquid, he opened two more inconspicuous acupoints with great difficulty.
These two acupoints were not the major acupoints of the human body, but they required more energy to open than those major acupoints. He had only been able to open them after many attempts.
He came to a conclusion. The acupoints of the major acupoints of the human body could only be opened by relying on extraordinary meridians.
Among the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, he had already opened the Conception and Governing Meridians, as well as the Chong and Girdle Meridians. With these four extraordinary meridians opened, he would be able to open the other acupoints. In other words, if he wanted to open seven hundred and twenty acupoints, he would have to open eight meridians before he could reach this step.
All of this was still a long way to go.
At this moment, Yang Wu let out a cry and gathered all his strength on his arms. His entire body seemed to have turned into a roaring Dragon Turtle, and he struck out with both arms. The powerful force caused the water that was rushing down to flow backward by more than ten feet.
This astonishing scene landed on the eyes of the old man and the young man not far away, and shock appeared in their eyes.
The waterfall was a hundred meters tall, and the force of its fall was definitely extremely powerful. Even a General Realm cultivator would not be able to withstand such a force. Not only did Yang Wu withstand it, but he even caused the waterfall to flow backward by ten feet. What kind of powerful force was this?
"It's a disaster, not a blessing, for our Barbarian Tribe to have such a potential enemy!" Huangfu Taigeng sighed softly.
"He is indeed very powerful. I'm afraid that no one among the younger generation of the Barbarian Tribe is his match," Huangfu Mingyu said with pursed lips.
Now, her heart was in a mess. The more outstanding this young man from Great Xia was, the more she liked him. However, the two countries were in a hostile state, and it was impossible for them to be together.
"However, it's not impossible to deal with such a young man. If Princess Ah Yu can sacrifice a little, perhaps he can still be of use to us," Huangfu Taigeng said after thinking for a while while looking at Huangfu Mingyu.
He was experienced, and it was very easy for him to see through a young girl's heart. He could feel that Huangfu Mingyu had fallen in love with Yang Wu.
"Eighth Grandfather, what do you want me to do?" Huangfu Mingyu asked.
Huangfu Taigeng said meaningfully, "Even heroes have a weakness for the charms of beautiful women!"
Huangfu Mingyu's face instantly turned as red as the setting sun.
…
Yang Wu ended his cultivation and returned to Little Hei's side.
In the past few days, Little Hei had been appearing and disappearing unpredictably. She went to look for a lot of old herbs to prepare for Yang Wu.
When Yang Wu walked over, Little Hei said with satisfaction, "Your body is in good condition now. You can accept the second extreme tempering."
"Come on!" Yang Wu said with a look of desire.
As his strength continued to grow, Yang Wu felt better and better. He couldn't wait for the moment when he could get rid of his current identity.
"Your fighting spirit is good. You'll have a good time later." Little Hei laughed and spat out the Shennong Immortal Cauldron. Using the same method as last time, she put the water and old herbs into the cauldron one by one. Then, she spat out a flame and boiled the water in the cauldron.
Looking at the boiling hot medicinal water, Yang Wu swallowed his saliva and gritted his teeth before jumping into the cauldron.
"Ah!"
The scream was so shrill that it scared both Huangfu Taigeng and Huangfu Mingyu. They were sure that it was Yang Wu's voice. They wanted to see what was going on, but Old Tortoise was watching them closely and didn't allow them to leave within six meters of the cauldron. They couldn't see what was going on at all.
The scream lasted for an hour. Huangfu Mingyu felt like her heart was about to break.
When everything quieted down, Yang Wu's seven orifices and flesh were oozing terrifying blood. It had completely mixed with the medicinal water, and it looked so terrifying.
"This kid actually withstood the ten thousand needles of the Ten Thousand Thorns Vine. Not bad!" Little Hei praised.
The boiling heat in the cauldron wasn't the scariest part. The scariest part was a strange herb called the "Ten Thousand Thorns Vine". When it mixed with the medicinal water, it would greatly increase the stimulation. Its effect made Yang Wu feel like he was being pricked by ten thousand needles. It wasn't something that an ordinary person could withstand.
In addition, there was also the power of Old Tortoise's blood essence. When the pure demonic blood seeped into Yang Wu's blood and body, it also made him feel like he was being bitten.
Extreme tempering of the body and forcing out one's potential were definitely not just words.
After this torment, only by collecting the herbs in the cauldron could he properly display the medicinal effects of these herbs.
As the medicinal power seeped into every part of Yang Wu's body, Yang Wu's body underwent a new round of evolution. The most obvious change was that two of his meridians had been opened at the same time. They were the Yangwei Meridian and the Yinwei Meridian. Of the eight meridians, six had been opened, and only the last two were left.
In addition, 88 unknown acupoints had been opened, bringing Yang Wu's acupoints to a total of 455. Some of his potential had been completely awakened. Apart from the potential of his five senses, there was also the potential of his limbs, as well as the potential of his organs. This potential would increase one's vitality. At the same time, it would also give one an advantage that ordinary people couldn't compare to.
For example, some people were born with clairvoyant eyes, clairvoyant ears, or heavenly canine nose. These were the signs of digging out one's potential to the extreme.
Now, Yang Wu didn't have clairvoyant eyes or clairvoyant ears, but his eyesight and hearing were definitely better than ordinary people. In addition, the potential of his feet was known as the Wind God's Legs. Because most of the acupoints that had been opened were under his feet, the ultimate potential of his feet had been opened.
In addition, his Divine Court Flower Bud had been further strengthened, and his mental strength had become extraordinary. Perhaps one day, he would be able to use his mental strength to launch an attack. This kind of potential was called "Soul Power Potential", and it was an extremely rare potential talent.
With this strengthening, Yang Wu felt that he had been reborn again, and his temperament was also different from the past.
Now, he was confident that he could defeat any martial artist in the General Realm. Even if he faced a real king, he wouldn't be suppressed by his opponent's aura to the point that he couldn't move.
After twisting his body, Yang Wu looked at Little Hei and said very seriously, "Little Hei, thank you!"
"Alright, alright. Helping you is also helping this Celestial Emperor. Don't say such sentimental words," Little Hei replied. After pausing for a moment, it said, "Now, continue to temper yourself. After you've stabilized your strength, I'll give you the third stage of tempering."
"No problem. I'll go take a look at Shou Hou first," Yang Wu replied with a nod.
"That brat is fine. Don't worry. After this is over, this Celestial Emperor will go find a soul-type medicine king. He'll definitely be able to recover to his original state, or even become stronger!" Little Hei promised.
Yang Wu nodded and then walked over to where Shou Hou was. He looked at Shou Hou, who was still in a deep sleep, and sighed softly. "Brother, don't worry. I'll definitely wake you up again."
Then, Yang Wu took out the Sealing Pearl that he had obtained from Shi Shafeng and said to Little Hei, "Little Hei, help me undo the seal here."
"Don't bite off more than you can chew. You'd better cultivate the few low-level battle skills that you've obtained, especially that 'Soldier's Fist'. It contains the fist intent of simplifying the complicated into the simple. It's much more practical than other battle skills," Little Hei replied.
Yang Wu didn't force it. He took Little Hei's words to heart and began to recall the cultivation diagrams of the 'Soldier's Fist'.
While he was cultivating, a group of uninvited guests barged into this place. Moreover, this group of uninvited guests were not from the Barbarian Tribe.
