In the entire system of the Observatory, only two people had the authority to mobilize the Black Death Guard.

The Director of the Observatory, and the Supervisor of the Demon Extermination Tribe.

Even the two Vice Directors lacked this power.

Bai Muxin didn’t even have to guess. He knew the order must have come from Du Qiuxu.

But this time, Bai Muxin could only choose to swallow his anger and endure.

’It’s all that waste Yan Xuan’s fault.’

’If he had just managed to kill that brat Han Yuan, none of this would have happened.’

Bai Muxin cursed Yan Xuan.

His decision to go after Han Yuan, ignoring Du Qiuxu’s warning, had clearly angered the man, prompting him to order the raid on the Fugui Gambling House.

If he made another move, he feared it wouldn’t be as simple as losing a gambling house.

’Kid... don’t think you can rest easy just because you got away this time.’

’The real show is yet to come.’

After dismissing the scout, Bai Muxin muttered to himself.

A single victory or defeat meant nothing.

For a behemoth like the Bai Family, losing one Fugui Gambling House was, at most, a sting. It wasn’t enough to cause any real harm.

Of course, for the time being, Bai Muxin didn’t dare make another move on Han Yuan.

After all, there was no need to completely tear face with Du Qiuxu.

In Bai Muxin’s eyes, even if Han Yuan was a genius, he was still just an Inner Breath Martial Artist in the end.

It was a known fact that advancing from the Inner Breath to the True Qi Realm required at least a decade of hard training.

As long as Han Yuan hadn’t broken through to the True Qi Realm, he wasn’t a real threat.

It wouldn’t be too late to deal with him after this storm blew over.

...

With the tacit agreement of both sides, the matter of the Fugui Gambling House was concluded.

The Bai Family showed no reaction.

The Demon Extermination Tribe also made no further moves.

However, of all the silver confiscated from Fugui, fifteen thousand taels of silver ended up in Han Yuan’s pocket.

Han Yuan also knew that a behemoth like the Bai Family was not so easily shaken.

He considered this a down payment on the interest; it wouldn’t be too late to settle the full debt later.

After collecting the money, Han Yuan headed straight for the Spirit Pill Pavilion.

This time, in addition to the money, he had also received 1,020 Contribution Points.

Seven hundred of those were from the bounty on Yan Xuan, and three hundred were the reward for leading the raid on the Fugui Gambling House.

The last twenty were the Contribution Points he had earned from his night patrols.

With such a large sum of Contribution Points, Han Yuan was naturally thinking of how to spend them.

Now that his Cultivation Technique had leveled up, the difficulty had increased, and the amount of grinding required for proficiency had also skyrocketed.

If he wanted to improve quickly, he had to get some Elixir Pills.

Upon entering the Spirit Pill Pavilion, he was met with a dazzling array of Elixir Pills.

There were Healing Medicines, Soporific Medicines, Golden Wound Medicines, and even poisons.

However, Han Yuan knew that after stepping into the Inner Breath Realm, the effects of poison were greatly diminished, so it wasn’t worth wasting Contribution Points to exchange for them.

After careful selection, he chose a type of Elixir Pill called the Spirit Yang Pill.

This pill was refined from various potent herbs that replenished qi, capable of increasing the speed of Inner Qi cultivation.

However, the price was a bit steep; a single pill cost thirty Contribution Points.

Han Yuan exchanged for thirty pills in one go.

He then spent another one hundred Contribution Points on some emergency Elixir Pills.

By the time he left the Spirit Pill Pavilion, he only had twenty Contribution Points left.

Han Yuan didn’t feel the sting. He returned to his room impatiently, and after calming his mind and clearing his qi, he took out a faint yellow Elixir Pill.

This was the Spirit Yang Pill, the size of a longan, and it had a faint medicinal scent.

’I wonder how much it will increase my cultivation efficiency... ’

Full of anticipation, Han Yuan swallowed the Spirit Yang Pill.

GULP~

After the Spirit Yang Pill settled in his lower abdomen, it transformed into a massive, warm current that spread out.

At that moment, Han Yuan began to circulate the Black Whale Sea-Covering Qi in his Dantian.

Currently, Han Yuan had only cultivated the Black Whale Sea-Covering Qi to the Second Layer, and the flow of qi was only as thick as a chopstick.

When this flow of qi encountered the warm current from the Spirit Yang Pill, it was as if it had been injected with chicken blood, and its circulation speed instantly accelerated.

Half an incense stick later.

Han Yuan opened his eyes. He compared the speed of this cultivation session to his usual pace when cultivating the Black Whale Oversea Skill, and a look of pleasant surprise appeared on his face.

’It increased the speed by about a third.’

’These thirty Contribution Points really weren’t spent for nothing.’

’Thirty pills... that should be enough for a month of cultivation.’

After calculating these figures, Han Yuan closed his eyes and resumed his cultivation.

But soon, Han Yuan discovered that the effects of one Spirit Yang Pill only lasted for a little over three hours.

So, he would need to consume two Spirit Yang Pills a day.

’I won’t worry about it for now... I’ll take on more missions after I’ve used up these pills.’

Han Yuan swallowed another Spirit Yang Pill.

...

For the next half a month, Han Yuan painstakingly ground away at the Black Whale Oversea Scripture until his Spirit Yang Pills were all used up.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

In a training ground within the Observatory, two figures were clashing at high speed.

One used a Palm Technique, their palm shadows overlapping in layers, stirring up fierce gusts of wind.

The other’s hands were like great hammers, domineering and direct, relentlessly smashing toward his opponent.

After several dozen moves, Duan Xu felt as if his arms were about to explode.

His opponent’s fists were simply too domineering.

”Han Yuan!”

”Take my palm!”

Duan Xu let out a low roar as his right palm stirred up a great torrent of air, striking fiercely at Han Yuan’s chest.

Han Yuan suddenly gave a strange laugh. He didn’t make a defensive move, instead proactively meeting the attack with his body.

At such a distance, it was too late for Duan Xu to pull back his hand even if he wanted to.

With a loud BANG,

Duan Xu felt as if he had struck a hard piece of iron ore, the impact jarring his palm and making it ache.

Meanwhile, the clothes on Han Yuan’s upper body suddenly burst apart, revealing a perfectly muscled physique.

He hadn’t taken a single step back; there was only a crimson Hand Seal on his chest.

”Your Hard Skill is truly incredible.”

”My full-powered palm strike couldn’t even injure you.”

Duan Xu said in amazement.

He really hadn’t held back just now.

Yet Han Yuan had relied on his terrifying physique to completely dissipate his Palm Force.

”Ever since stepping into the Inner Breath Realm, my Inner Qi has been continuously tempering my muscles, bones, and flesh. I’ve certainly become much tougher than before,” Han Yuan said with a smile.

”That’s also because your own physique was strong enough to begin with.”

”An ordinary person cultivating the same Inner Breath Technique as you would be nowhere near as effective.”

Duan Xu said, shaking his head.

He had just returned from a mission out of town, and upon hearing that Han Yuan had broken through to the Inner Breath Realm, he had eagerly sought him out for a spar.

He never expected to be completely crushed by Han Yuan.

Even his full-powered palm strike could only leave a palm print.

”That’s true.”

”Most people aren’t as tough-boned as I am.”

Han Yuan smiled and added, ”Brother Duan, let’s practice some more.”

He hadn’t stretched his muscles for half a month, so now that he had a rare sparring partner, he naturally wanted to move around a bit more.

”Forget it.”

”A few more rounds with you, and these old bones of mine will probably shatter.”

”But your Fist Technique is a bit crude.”

Duan Xu said seriously.

”Mm. I only have a Third-Class Fist Technique right now.”

”But I had to use my Contribution Points for Elixir Pills, so I haven’t been able to exchange for a better Fist Technique.”

Han Yuan said softly.

”The Fist Technique is an easy problem to solve.”

”Since you’ve earned so much money recently, you don’t necessarily have to exchange for one at the Martial Arts Pavilion.”

Duan Xu said with a sly grin.

Apparently, he also knew about the Fugui Gambling House incident.
