Liu Wentao came and went in a hurry. The deputy head of the punishment hall of Nanxun branch left Linhe the next day after questioning Zhang Yuan. And this incident was like a stone dropped in the Tianma River. Although it caused a ripple, there was no movement in the blink of an eye and it passed silently. Yue Wuji was probably worried that Zhang Yuan would feel upset, so he called him over to give him some words of encouragement. In fact, Zhang Yuan really didn't understand the above idea, so he not only gave him generous rewards, but also sent people down to question him. This pulling and beating was simply inexplicable. Although this incident had no real impact on Zhang Yuan, he was secretly wary. But Zhang Yuan didn't show any signs of strangeness and practiced diligently as always. Even harder than before. Because he practiced martial arts so diligently, even Zhang's mother was worried, fearing that he would damage his body.
Zhang Yuan appears to be submissive on the surface, but actually goes his own way. Because he had a new sense of crisis and urgently needed to improve his strength. Only with your own strong strength can you truly feel at ease! For this reason, Zhang Yuan used all the 5,000 taels of bounty money to purchase medicinal materials, focusing on making money to the end. Since the birth of the "Pan Rock Stake Kung Fu", a powerful martial art, warriors like him who have consistently invested a lot of resources cannot be said to be unique, but they are also rare. Because the children of big families and powerful forces have better choices than "Panshi Zhuang Gong". How could an ordinary warrior spend so much money! The effect of krypton gold is also very obvious. Zhang Yuan's qi and blood value, which had once stagnated, has resumed growth with the investment of better medicinal materials. He is getting closer and closer to the bottleneck of the second level peak. The cold winter passed quietly, and Zhang Yuan ushered in a new year. He is also a year older. When the spring breeze blows on the earth and new seedlings grow in the fields, Zhang Yuan, who has been immersed in martial arts training, finally feels the opportunity for a breakthrough! Without any hesitation, he immediately applied to Zhantang for retreat. Hall leader Yue Wuji was quite surprised: "Are you sure you want to attack the third level now?" Yue Wuji knew that Zhang Yuan was quite talented in martial arts and was usually very diligent and hardworking. But within just two years of joining the gang, he was about to reach the realm of Huajin, which was too fast. You must know that most of the new disciples who joined the battle hall at the same time as Zhang Yuan were still at the first level of Ming Jin. Zhang Yuan is about to ascend! Yue Wuji did not doubt Zhang Yuan's talent and hard work, but he was even more unwilling to see Zhang Yuan eager for quick success.
The third level of energy involves the internal organs. Once the breakthrough fails, the foundation will be easily damaged. By then, no one will be able to recover in a year or a half. The leader of the war hall still hopes that Zhang Yuan can be more stable and develop a more solid foundation. Then even if it fails, the impact will be much smaller. However, Zhang Yuan has made up his mind: "I would like to ask the hall master to do it, I will be grateful to you!" "Just let it go." Seeing Zhang Yuan's firm attitude, Yue Wuji couldn't say anything more: "I will arrange an ascension room for you." As the home base of Angry Whale Linhe Branch, Whale Castle was not built just anywhere. This Wubao is located near a mountain and faces water, making it a place with good Feng Shui. There are two secret rooms built underground in the Whale Castle, where formations are arranged to condense the earth's energy, specifically for the purpose of helping people to retreat and advance to the next level. Call it the Ascension Room! But the Ascension Room is not available to all disciples. Either redeem it with military exploits, or apply to the hall master at the entrance of the hall. Yue Wuji is the master of the war hall, and he is one of the top three strong men in Linhe Branch, so he naturally has a quota in his hand. And Zhang Yuan's military achievements were all redeemed, so he could only ask Yue Wuji for help. Yue Wuji's trust in Zhang Yuan was not just words, he quickly arranged for him to ascend to the realm room in three days. "You only have five days." The war hall leader said in a deep voice: "This is my highest authority. If you fail to pass the test within five days, you must come out. Do you understand?" Zhang Yuan nodded: "Disciple understands." Five days is more than enough! Now he is at least 70% sure—an underestimation. "very good." Yue Wuji asked again: "Is the Qi and Blood Pill I gave you last time still there?" Zhang Yuan replied: "Yes." He has neither been on missions nor encountered danger in the recent period, so naturally he has no need for the precious Qi and Blood Pills. Yue Wuji smiled and said: "That's good. The second level is to rush to the third level. The Qi and Blood Pill is a very good auxiliary pill. If you swallow one at the critical moment, you might be able to rush up!" Zhang Yuan was stunned. No wonder the number of Qi and Blood Pills allocated by the above is so small, and the price of exchanging Qi and Blood Pills is so high.
It turns out there is such a wonderful use! He didn't know it before, and it was obviously the gang's top brass who deliberately concealed it. If Zhang Yuan hadn't needed to retreat into seclusion, Yue Wuji wouldn't have told him. Yue Wuji reminded: "You just need to know this yourself, don't tell others." Zhang Yuan naturally made a guarantee. In the next three days, he adjusted his condition to the best. Then he entered the Ascension Room. This ascension room is located ten feet underground in the center of the whale castle. It is only ten feet long and wide. The walls are empty without any decoration. There is only a black futon on the ground. There is a light pole erected in the corner of the secret room, with a luminous pearl inlaid on the top. The light it emitted barely illuminated the room. The conditions were extremely simple. However, as soon as he entered the realm-raising room, Zhang Yuan immediately felt refreshed. The air in this underground secret room was not turbid or dull at all. Although there was no ventilation duct, it seemed as if he was in a green forest. Quite magical! After closing the only door, Zhang Yuan sat down on the futon first. He did not try to break through the realm immediately, but crossed his legs to regulate his breathing, allowing his body to adapt and become familiar with the environment here. Before coming, Zhang Yuan had already emptied his stomach. He only brought a gourd of clear water with him. And two Qi and Blood Pillars! There was no sunlight in the underground space, and it was difficult to accurately judge the time. After Zhang Yuan felt that his condition and the surrounding space had reached a certain balance, he stood up and took off his coat. He began to practice "Rock Pillar Kung Fu". From the first to the sixth form, he practiced over and over again as usual. Until his whole body was sweating like pulp, the Qi and blood in his body were rising and surging, and his muscles and bones made a vibrating sound. Zhang Yuan immediately swallowed a Qi and Blood Pill and began to attack the third level of Huajin. Huajin means to disperse the strength contained in the skin, flesh, tendons and bones into the blood, marrow and internal organs, so the process is much more dangerous than the first level to the second level. Many second-level warriors are limited by their talents and do not have enough confidence and courage, so they often stop before Huajin. It is because there is a great danger in the realm of breakthrough.
But Zhang Yuan was focused and had full confidence in himself. So he did not hesitate at all!
