Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader

After talking martial arts and scriptures with Dou Dajin, Jiang Dali gained a total of 260 Potential Points.

Jiang Dali examined himself.

Among the various martial arts he practiced, abilities like the Qinggong technique ”Eight Steps to Catch a Cicada” and fist and foot skills like ”Four Directions Fist” were easier to improve.

Other arts, such as Hidden Weapons that had reached the 3rd Realm of Slight Success, Iron Cloth Shirt at the 5th Realm of Refinement, and the Tiger Evil Golden Ring Saber just attaining the 4th Realm and Mastered, were not so easy to enhance.

Moreover, apart from special basic skills like ”Four Directions Fist,” these were merely Mortal Rank Martial Arts.

Jiang Dali previously had no choice.

Now, with the hope of acquiring Human Rank or even Earth Rank Martial Arts after completing the ”Dealing with Du Dajin” task, Jiang Dali preferred to save some Potential Points for improving higher-level martial arts in the future.

”However, after cultivation techniques are upgraded to Upper Grade, they all require a substantial amount of Inner Qi, so I must enhance my Inner Qi Technique.”

Jiang Dali thought it over and decided to first enhance his self-taught Basic Inner Qi.

As 50 Potential Points were spent,

His Basic Inner Qi, which was already at the Initial Insight level with a 50% progress rate, suddenly advanced a level higher.

Jiang Dali only felt a much stronger Qi Sensing in the Dantian within his body. Although still weaker compared to an old master like Dou Dajin, he had nevertheless become significantly stronger.

”To elevate from Initial Insight to the 3rd Realm of Slight Success, it will take 200 Potential Points.”

Jiang Dali pondered for a moment.

He continued and spent another 200 Potential Points, raising his Basic Inner Qi directly to the 3rd Realm of Slight Success.

Later, if he completed the ”Dealing with Du Dajin” task, he would receive many Cultivation Points and Potential Points to compensate for this expenditure.

With the advancement of his Inner Strength Realm, Jiang Dali felt his Qi Sensing grow far stronger, about three times more powerful than at the 1st Realm.

That meant his Inner Strength could now roughly amplify the power of his fist and foot skills by about 50%.

”My current self-taught Inner Strength is still basic, although it has its advantages, it provides too little increase in combat power.

If it were the Nine Yang Divine Skill, just at the 1st Realm of Initial Learning, it could roughly double my combat power, and what’s more, the Nine Yang Divine Skill comes with rapid energy regaining, Immunity to Hundred Poisons, resistance to fire and water, slow breathing, Strong Body, great strength, and other special effects, making it a first-class Divine Skill.”

Jiang Dali felt a surge of longing for the ”Nine Yang Divine Skill” in his heart.

He decided that after his encounter with the people from Ru Yang Royal Mansion, he would quickly advance to the Outer Qi Realm and then obtain the Nine Yang Divine Skill.

Without the power of the Outer Qi Realm, there was no way to safely extract the Nine Yang Divine Skill from the belly of the White Ape.

Suddenly, at that moment, an elated mountain bandit subordinate rushed in.

”Village chief, the Second Master says the people from above have arrived.”

”Oh?”

Jiang Dali raised an eyebrow in surprise and joy. At this moment, he also received notification of task completion, with a significant increase in Cultivation Points, Potential Points, and reputation.

At the same time, an additional notification greatly surprised him.

”Congratulations on receiving an extra reward: An Earth-rank Ultimate Skill Fragment ’Great Vajra Palm’ with three techniques—’Respect Buddha,’ ’Buddha’s Compassion,’ and ’Vajra Bow!’”

”Great Vajra Palm!?”

Jiang Dali was even more delighted.

However, he had no time to carefully examine the Martial Arts, as he immediately went out to meet the visitors from Ru Yang Royal Mansion.

Almost as soon as Jiang Dali stepped out of the courtyard, he saw Xiong Ba, with an unusually humble posture, leading two people inside.

One of them had red lips and white teeth, a slender body but moved with agile and graceful steps, suggesting a mastery of lightweight movement techniques. The person had a sharpness about them that suggested a woman dressed as a man.

The other person by their side had eyes as large as copper bells, a square face with a wide mouth, and short hair like steel bristles, totally unlike a normal person from ancient times. They were tall and burly, with a gait that suggested a soaring eagle, ready to burst out with violent intent at any moment.

”That looks to be San, a disciple of the Vajra Sect from his youth. It seems like he has now mastered the Shaolin Dragon Claw Hand to perfection,” Jiang Dali thought, recognizing the man with the square face and wide mouth. He was thrilled.

He had only speculated that San might target the Dragon Gate Escort Agency, but he hadn’t expected him to show up so soon.

”These are the two envoys from the Upper Gang; this is our village chief, Jiang Dali, the one who left the Chief position of the escort agency.”

Xiong Ba enthusiastically introduced Jiang Dali to the two people.

At this moment, Dou Dajin, who had been resting in the side room, also came out alert.

”Jiang Dali of Black Wind Village, at your service,” Jiang Dali greeted the two with a smile and subtly sent out a probing inquiry.

The result was that both individuals showed only a fleeting glimpse of their blood bar, without revealing too much information.

However, the woman dressed as a man had three question marks above her head that were so dark they were nearly black, whereas the question marks above San’s head were almost completely black, indicating that the former might be a person of the Inner Qi Realm, while San could very likely have surpassed the Outer Qi Realm.

”So, you are Jiang Dali? As far as I know, Xiong Ba was previously the village chief of Black Wind Village, but you’ve managed to make him willingly accept a position below you, even keeping Dou Dajin around. You must have some skills indeed.”

The Little White-faced Envoy examined Jiang Dali from head to toe, his eyes showing a bit of satisfaction, ”We won’t interfere with the internal power shifts within Black Wind Village; after all, we serve the same master. If you can take care of the tasks our master has given you, there will be a substantial reward.”

”As should be.”

Jiang Dali courteously smiled back, his mind speculating about the woman’s identity.

Such attire, in his memory, would only belong to Princess Minmin Temur of Ru Yang Royal Mansion, who, despite being insidious and ruthless, dared to love and hate.

But Princess Minmin hadn’t even been born at this point in time.

As Jiang Dali pondered in surprise, Dou Dajin beside him was filled with shock and anger.

He hadn’t expected that Jiang Dali truly had powerful backing and that keeping him around was just to wait for these two mysterious guests to arrive.

”Who is your master? Why are you looking for me?” Dou Dajin glared at the two and demanded.

The Little White-faced Envoy laughed, looking at Dou Dajin with a mocking gaze, ”Chief, you can’t even handle a small assignment like Black Wind Village that our master cultivated, and you still want to know who our master is? But it’s no harm to tell you.

Our master wanted us to find you for this time, let’s talk inside.”

With a smile, the Little White-faced Envoy led the way into the house.

Dou Dajin was tempted to resist, but the gaze from the burly man beside him reminded him of his encounter with Jiang Dali, who had seemed as solid as iron, casting a shadow in his mind. With a cold snort, he still entered the room.

Jiang Dali watched the individuals enter the room and then ordered everyone to stand guard outside the courtyard, leaving the courtyard himself.

Evidently, the assistance that had come from either Ru Yang Royal Mansion or the Li Family was there for a secret matter with Dou Dajin, something they did not want more people to know.

If he were to forcefully eavesdrop and get caught, it might disrupt later plans, with no benefit to him.

”It now seems that the reason Ru Yang Royal Mansion sent San to find Dou Dajin could be that Yin Susu from the Skyhawk Sect has already handed Wudang Yu Daiyan over to the Dragon Gate Escort Agency for protection.

Or it could be that this plotline has not yet begun, and Ru Yang Royal Mansion is merely trying to recruit and net all the Martial World powers they can, to serve their ends...”
