Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Chapter 455: Chapter 178: Confucian Sect (Part 2)

Even Puxuan, who cultivated the Buddhist Golden Body and the Divine Foot, in his eyes, could not be a match for Senior Brother Bo Yi.

”Oh, that’s so formidable, that’s indeed impressive.”

”I thought having a draw with Puxuan was quite an achievement, but I didn’t expect the Infinite Sect to have so many experts.”

Lin Zheyu smiled casually as he spoke.

His attention was fully absorbed by the positions and layouts of the halls within the sect.

Lin Zheyu noticed that the Infinite Sect had everything one could wish for: the Scripture Library, Weapon Pavilion, internal market, bustling Flower Street, and so on.

It was like a miniature city, small yet complete in every respect.

He memorized the position of the weapon forging area, planning to come back in the afternoon to craft a set of heavy armor.

As his strength continued to grow, ordinary heavy armor was becoming less useful.

When he was at the Lee Mansion, the heavy armor Lin Zheyu wore weighed an astonishing one thousand kilograms.

Now with his significant increase in strength, it was estimated that two thousand kilograms or even three to four thousand kilograms would be necessary.

’I have now reached the stage of Qi Blood Eleven Transformations, and have condensed both the Turtle Breath True Intent and the Tyrannical True Intent, significantly enhancing my mental will.’

’A single breakthrough now should allow me to gain two units, or even 2.5 units of Source Power, right?’

Lin Zheyu pondered secretly.

During his time at Wuji Manor, he never attempted to surpass his limits to obtain Source Power.

The Source Power previously accumulated was now down to just five units.

However, before that, Lin Zheyu first needed to acquire a powerful Concealing Breath Skill.

The quantity of Source Power gained from each breakthrough was closely tied to the strength of his Essence, Qi, and Spirit.

The Nine Revolutions Locking Essence Skill locked most of the life energy, essence, qi, and blood in his body, and if he didn’t unlock it, it would affect the amount of Source Power he could obtain during a breakthrough.

While Lin Zheyu answered nonchalantly and was lost in thought, Huang Youwei was shocked by what he had just said.

”Uh...”

”A draw?!”

Huang Youwei was taken aback.

Even though he stayed within the Infinite Sect and did not attend the Martial Dao Exchange Conference, he had heard of Puxuan’s fame.

He was an extremely formidable guy.

Cultivating the Buddhist Golden Body granted him unparalleled defense in the Bone Marrow Refining Realm, while the Divine Foot endowed him with the top speed within the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.

Facing him, unless one could break Puxuan’s defense, the opponent could rely on unbeatable defense and astonishing Golden Body speed.

This was an unequal battle.

Yet the person before him claimed to have had a draw with Puxuan.

This was rather unbelievable.

While he seemingly expressed disdain when Puxuan was mentioned, he was well aware of the monk’s terrifying power.

To defeat him at the same level, his power was inevitably among the pinnacle of the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.

Gulp~

Huang Youwei swallowed and fell silent.

He pondered for a moment, seemingly recalling something, and turned to look at Lin Zheyu, asking, ”Are you the Zhao Hao who was the only one to achieve a hundred matches without defeat in this year’s Martial Dao Exchange Conference?”

Lin Zheyu nodded softly upon hearing the words.

He had no intention of concealing it, as Huang Youwei, being Huang Baizhong’s grandson and close to Huang Baizhong, would likely find out his identity soon anyway.

”So it’s you; I didn’t expect grandpa to recruit you directly.”

Huang Youwei said with a sudden realization.

He had heard of Zhao Hao, who was reportedly a Martial Artist without any background.

A Martial Artist without any background, able to cultivate Martial Dao to such an extent, was indispensable in terms of talent comprehension and also opportunities.

What was even more astonishing was that this guy seemed so young.

”Are you really fifty-eight years old?” Huang Youwei questioned.

”Anyway, I’m not yet sixty.”

Lin Zheyu replied with a smile.

’It’s not that I doubt you’re over sixty, but you don’t look like someone who’s fifty-eight years old!’

Huang Youwei thought to himself, losing interest in further inquiries.

He took Lin Zheyu around the Infinite Sect, explaining which places were off-limits and which ones were accessible.

Finally, Huang Youwei led Lin Zheyu to Sushang Hall, which was a place within the Infinite Sect for temporary lodging of visiting guests.

Since Lin Zheyu had not yet formally joined the sect, he could only temporarily stay here.

”Yuqing, find an unoccupied courtyard for this gentleman.”

Huang Youwei instructed, summoning a maid.

He looked at Lin Zheyu and said, ”Mr. Lin, please temporarily stay here. Once you join the sect, more permanent accommodation will be arranged.”

”If there’s anything that you need, feel free to ask Yuqing to take care of it.”

After giving these instructions, Huang Youwei turned and left.

From being initially resistant, upon learning that Lin Zheyu was the sole undefeated Martial Artist at this year’s Martial Dao Exchange Conference, Huang Youwei began to acknowledge him.

”Sir, please follow me.”

Yuqing said respectfully.

Arriving at an outdoor courtyard inside, Lin Zheyu settled in with peace of mind.

The courtyard was antiquated and quaint, impeccably tidy, with a warm spring channeled into the room, allowing for indoor bathing and soaking, very convenient.

Lin Zheyu settled down in the Infinite Sect.

In the afternoon.

Just as Lin Zheyu was about to head out for a stroll, there was a knock on the door.

Opening the door, Lin Zheyu saw three men who looked quite unfamiliar, with Huang Youwei standing beside them, grinning.

”Are you Lin Zheyu, about to be admitted under Mr. Huang?” asked the leading man, eyeing Lin Zheyu up and down.

”Indeed.”

”May I ask your name?”
