Holy body, start with the Five Animal Exercises

56: Revisiting Chaofeng Tower, strange round beadsBoom—!

The vast black-red Evil Qi surged out, completely transforming into pure black within a few breaths, and the heavy Tiger Evil intent swept unbridled like a fierce wind.

However, under Qin Jiang’s control, nothing in the room was damaged.

He pushed open the door, walked into the courtyard, and with a wave of his hand, his fox fur cloak and upper garment floated into the pavilion, revealing his muscular upper body under the moonlight.

His muscles bulged like coiled Dragons, and his veins popped out like twisted earthworms.

With his eyes slightly closed, he unleashed his fist power, each punch carrying an unparalleled Tiger Evil intent.

As he punched, the surrounding air was swept by his fist power, and a gentle breeze gradually arose in the courtyard.

The breeze became increasingly visible, then suddenly turned violent.

Roar—!

A tiger’s roar seemed to echo in the illusory air, and Qin Jiang’s eyes suddenly opened, revealing streaks of black light.

An illusory black giant tiger appeared behind him, with a crimson mark on its forehead, from which crimson threads, like cracks, extended across the entire body of the black giant tiger.

This was the mark of Red Tiger Fist cultivated to the fourth layer: the black-red Evil Qi transforming into pure black, condensing into a Tiger Evil Divine Sense.

When the crimson mark on the forehead of the Tiger Evil Divine Sense completely covered the black giant tiger’s body, the pure black Evil Qi would also reverse, turning into pure crimson.

At that time, it would be the Realm where Gang Leader Lu was, a true Grandmaster-level expert, an existence at the Peak of Divine Sense!

A moment later, the Tiger Evil dissipated, and Qin Jiang walked into the pavilion, sat down, and after putting on his upper garment, casually picked up a snow pear and took a bite.

The refreshing taste somewhat diminished the Evil intent in his eyes.

He looked at his potential panel:

Current Martial arts:

Longevity Five Qi Skill (Third Layer) (350/550)

Iron Arm Fist (Perfection)

Earth Dragon Body (Third Layer) (340/400)

Red Tiger Fist (Fourth Layer) (55/1300)

Potential Points: 3.7

As expected, the progress of Longevity Five Qi Skill and Earth Dragon Body had significantly increased, almost reaching Perfection.

After a moment of thought, he decided to pour the remaining Potential Points into Longevity Five Qi Skill and Earth Dragon Body.

Now that Potential Points had a stable source, there was no need to be too frugal.

Moreover, although these two true Martial arts were not high-level true Martial arts, they complemented Red Tiger Fist, and their contribution to his strength was not much less than a high-level true Martial art.

’Potential, add points, Earth Dragon Body.’

Earth Dragon Body (Third Layer) (340/400), Experience +60

Earth Dragon Body (Perfection)

Potential Points: 3.1

Detected that ’Earth Dragon Body’ has reached its Martial arts limit. Do you wish to deduce it?

He directly refused. Deducing ”Earth Dragon Body” would require no less Potential Points than adding points to a high-level true Martial art to its first layer.

But for him, cultivating a high-level true Martial art to its first layer would not take much time.

Relatively speaking, the cost-effectiveness was lower.

However, the benefits brought by Earth Dragon Body were also immense. When he had surplus Potential Points in the future, he would definitely deduce it to the high-level true Martial art Realm.

He subtly sensed his body, casually stretching his joints. Compared to before Earth Dragon Body reached Perfection, both the flexibility of his fascia and the strength of his bones and joints had greatly improved.

After adapting for a moment, he looked at the panel again, with a hint of recollection in his eyes.

Longevity Five Qi Skill, or rather, Five Animals Play, was the first Martial arts he had cultivated since his Rebirth.

It was also what allowed him to preserve his life at that time. Looking at it now, he felt a sense of great change over time.

He knew that it hadn’t been long since he stopped primarily cultivating Longevity Five Qi Skill, but it felt that way because of how much he had experienced in such a short period.

After a moment of silence, he couldn’t help but smile, ’Potential, add points, Longevity Five Qi Skill.’

Longevity Five Qi Skill (Third Layer) (350/550), Experience +200

Longevity Five Qi Skill (Perfection)

Potential Points: 1.1

Detected that ’Longevity Five Qi Skill’ has reached its Martial arts limit. Do you wish to deduce it?

He also refused.

A tingling itch spread throughout his body, and the internal Qi of Longevity Five Qi Skill merged into his flesh, blood, and fascia.

An indescribably relaxed and comfortable feeling welled up in his heart, even giving him a fleeting sense of happiness.

He slightly raised his hand, and the feeling of being one with heaven and earth became even more apparent.

Even the circulation of Evil Qi within his body became smoother, no longer as difficult to control as before.

He clenched his fist slightly, a hint of joy appearing in his eyes.

Now, although he was not as strong as Gang Leader Lu in terms of Realm, with the blessings of Earth Dragon Body and Longevity Five Qi Skill, plus his unusual cultivation method for Red Tiger Fist, he should not be much weaker than him.

If he also considered that Gang Leader Lu was now old and his vital Qi was not as good as before.

Perhaps, he was the number one expert in Black Mountain City.

He shook his head with a smile. If he could Cultivate multiple true Martial arts, why couldn’t others?

He didn’t believe that a Grandmaster-level Divine Sense Martial Artist would have no trump cards.

The next day, in the main hall on the first floor of Facing Phoenix Tower.

”Master Qin, you’re here again? Are you planning to choose a few sisters today?” Wan’er, dressed in a green dress, covered half her face with a handkerchief and asked with a soft laugh.

Yuner, who was leaning in Meng An’s arms, also smiled slightly but didn’t dare to be as presumptuous as Wan’er.

”Wan’er, don’t mess around! Boss is already a deacon, and tomorrow he’s competing for the position of Fourth Master!

It’s a sure thing! Be careful, Boss might take you out of this Facing Phoenix Tower to play with!” Meng An said with a look that implied, ’Don’t ask for trouble.’

Wan’er immediately turned pale with fright upon hearing this, and the handkerchief in her hand uncontrollably fell to the ground.

”F-f-f-f-fourth Master!”

She looked at Qin Jiang with a hint of panic, feeling a little regretful.

If only she had known, if only she hadn’t coveted her brother’s body... She knew that some masters in the Inner City played tricks that normal people couldn’t endure!

Moreover, the identity of the Red Tiger Gang’s Fourth Master was a master among masters! Even if he played her to death, no one would dare to stand up for her!

Yuner, on the side, also looked worried, wanting to speak to Qin Jiang but hesitating.

Qin Jiang looked at her and couldn’t help but smile, ”Old Meng is teasing you. Where’s the madam, Aunt Lan?”

”Ah? Oh! Aunt Lan isn’t here today; she seems to have gone out of the city.”

Wan’er said, and even though Qin Jiang said he was teasing her, her voice still trembled slightly.

”After I left, did anyone go into that courtyard?” Qin Jiang asked.

”N-no, no one dared to go in,” Wan’er stammered.

Qin Jiang nodded, walked past Wan’er directly towards the backyard, and as he passed her, he lightly patted her shoulder, ”Your handkerchief fell. Pick it up.”

Wan’er’s body trembled, and she quickly bent down to pick up the handkerchief. After seeing Qin Jiang walk away, she hurriedly followed.

The group arrived in front of the courtyard in the backyard. Qin Jiang casually broke the chain, which made Wan’er, who was about to take out the key, freeze in place and silently lower her hand.

Whoosh—!

Black Evil Qi spread like flowing water into the courtyard, completely covering it within a few breaths, and permeating into the various rooms.

It was still that feeling like looking through a layer of glass, unable to find the source of the chilling aura.

A moment later, Qin Jiang’s palm gently touched the hilt of the Black Water Saber, ”Old Meng, gather thirty brothers, prepare some torches and lamp oil, and surround this place for me.”

”Understood, Boss! I’ll be back in fifteen minutes!”

It didn’t take fifteen minutes; Meng An returned with his men in just over seven and a half minutes.

It must be said that in Black Mountain City, the Red Tiger Gang’s efficiency was far higher than that of the yamen, almost on par with the County Soldiers under the county magistrate.

”Surround it!” Meng An shouted.

No one spoke. Thirty Red Tiger Gang Disciples, holding torches and carrying buckets of lamp oil, surrounded the courtyard.

The large-scale movement of personnel also made the people in Facing Phoenix Tower curious, and many poked their heads out of the second-floor windows to watch.

”Wait for me outside.”

After saying that, Qin Jiang stepped into the courtyard and went directly to the wellhead.

Black Evil Qi poured into the wellhead, and before long, the Evil Qi lifted a pure black bead the size of a fingernail to the surface.

He raised his hand and took the bead.

Potential Points being absorbed... 0.1... 0.1... 0.2... 1

Potential Points: 2.3

The Potential Points, which felt cool to the touch, were completely absorbed, leaving only an extremely cold and eerie power.

Looking at the pure black bead in his hand, Qin Jiang’s eyes showed a hint of surprise, ”What refined eerie power this is. What is this thing?”
