Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

”This giant serpent’s defense shouldn’t compare to that brutal beast in the forest outside Bafang City, in the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.”

”I wonder if the eighteenfold Wild Bull Fist can directly kill it.”

Lin Zheyu looked at the distant giant serpent, pondering secretly.

Back then, that brutal beast, due to its extraordinary talent, had terrifyingly strong defense.

But this giant serpent has an aura much weaker than that beast. Serpents’ defense among brutal beasts is considered average, probably not that strong.

Chirp chirp~~

Xiaohei stood upright beside Lin Zheyu, waving its paws, staring intently at the distant giant serpent.

Drool began to drip down.

It turned its head to look at Lin Zheyu, patting Lin Zheyu’s pant leg with its paw.

Seeing Lin Zheyu look over, Xiaohei immediately pointed its paw at the distant giant serpent and let out a roar.

Lin Zheyu: ”...”

Observing Xiaohei’s gestures, Lin Zheyu roughly understood what the little fellow wanted to do.

It wanted Lin Zheyu to capture that giant serpent and roast it to eat.

For over a month, they’ve been eating ordinary wild beasts, and Xiaohei somewhat missed the roasted meat of Qi Blood Realm brutal beasts.

The meat of powerful brutal beasts is far more exciting to eat than ordinary wild beasts.

”Quiet, stay alert.”

Lin Zheyu resisted the urge to kick it, speaking in a low tone.

He wasn’t in great shape and didn’t want to act rashly.

Although he also wanted to try to see if he could shatter a Bone Marrow Refining Realm giant serpent with one punch.

Chirp chirp~~

Xiaohei let out a low, aggrieved cry and obediently assumed a vigilant stance.

Time slowly passed.

A serpent appeared beside them, coiling around a tree branch, silently flicking its tongue and holding its ground.

After the giant serpent appeared ahead, several figures also appeared, presumably people from Giant Python Village, negotiating with Guangxuan Escort Agency.

About half an hour later.

The clear sound of flute playing rang out again.

The serpents on both sides rustled and began to retreat, disappearing soon after.

”Oh, they’ve retreated.”

”Guangxuan Escort Agency reached an agreement with Giant Python Village, we’re safe.”

”So amazing, does Giant Python Village control the serpents with their flute, what’s the principle?” Liang Yunhui marveled.

Not long after, the team ahead started moving again.

Lin Zheyu breathed a slight sigh of relief, preferring not to fight if possible.

The cattle and horses, recently startled, were lying motionless, playing dead.

A crack of the whip from Lin Zheyu got them moving again.

However.

They had barely traveled two hundred meters when a change occurred.

Hiss hiss~~

A giant serpent slithered out from the forest, flicking its tongue.

A burly man stood on the head of the giant serpent, with a four-to-five-meter snake coiled around him.

”Hey, I heard there are three of you who haven’t paid the toll.”

”Be proactive and step forward.”

”I won’t make it hard for you, just take one punch from me, and you can pass.”

The man chuckled as he spoke.

Standing atop the giant serpent, he looked down at Lin Zheyu and the others.

This giant serpent was not the same one that blocked the road earlier; it was slightly smaller and had power roughly equivalent to the Qi Blood Three Transformations.

”Alright, I, Lei, will meet you!”

Lei Chuangcheng stepped forward, his voice thunderous as he spoke.

Once he stepped out, Liu Chengmian and Yanbo also took a step forward, radiating powerful auras.

Their auras carried a hint of formidable momentum.

The momentum of the three combined in an inexplicable manner, and under this connection, their Essence, Qi, and Spirit also fused together.

”Oh!”

Everyone around let out a gasp of surprise.

”It’s a Combined Attack Skill!”

”No wonder you have the courage not to pay the toll, you do have some skills.”

The burly man standing on the giant serpent was slightly surprised at the sight.

Such a skill, able to integrate the Essence, Qi, and Spirit of three people into one and forcibly enhance their power, was extremely rare.

The difficulty of cultivation was also high.

It required three martial artists to have extremely strong rapport and to comprehend the same momentum, linking through a cultivation technique to fuse their Essence, Qi, and Spirit together.

”Combined Attack Skill!”

”The martial arts of this world are truly marvelous, to think such techniques exist, similar to the effects of the military’s talismanic cards.”

Lin Zheyu couldn’t help but exclaim upon hearing this.

Previously, in Songyi City, due to the environment, he had never seen such a miraculous martial skill as a Combined Attack Skill.

After arriving in Bafang City, he spent most of his time hunting brutal beasts in the mountains. Even when in the city, he rarely interacted with others and had no channels or circles to witness the marvels of the Martial Dao.

After the three used the Combined Attack Skill, Lei Chuangcheng’s momentum surged wildly, soon reaching a level comparable to the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.

However, before the burly man could launch an attack, a sudden change occurred.

Bam!

A muffled sound erupted from the forest.

A burly figure, wielding a large black iron rod, shot out from the dense woods.

The figure exuded an astonishing presence, with a thick, bloody aura.

This presence bore some resemblance to when Chen Mu was in Songyi City.

However, Chen Mu’s presence was derived from the Frenzy Battle Skill, with an emphasis on battle, driven to madness by fighting.

The person before them was purely about slaughter.

The iron rod, imbued with an unstoppable momentum, smashed down, its dense murderous aura seemingly turning into a blood cloud, enveloping Lei Chuangcheng.

Affected by the opponent’s presence, a hint of blood red surged in Lei Chuangcheng’s eyes.

In an instant, a powerful momentum also surged from his body, breaking free from the opponent’s influence.

However, his rapidly heaving chest and labored breathing indicated that Lei Chuangcheng hadn’t entirely shaken off the opponent’s presence.
