Chapter 4 004: Four Realms Exchange Blood, Red Scale Talent In the blink of an eye, three days later. Outside Linyuan City, the morning glow illuminated the mountains. In a valley, more than a dozen fierce figures gathered there, each equipped with a weapon. There was another figure standing still in the dark woods. But this man was tall and burly, with a square shield and a short spear on his back, and he had a majestic aura, and he seemed to be the leader. A man with broom-shaped eyebrows and triangular eyes was humbly reporting intelligence information to this person. ".Master Wei, these are the best targets I have heard of in the city recently. There are as many as four of them, and they are all wealthy businessmen. As long as you lead your brothers to take action, it will be easy to capture them!" "Let me see." The sturdy man took the intelligence booklet handed to him and read through it carefully. His sharp eyes scanned every sentence and word, as if he would not miss any information.
After a while, he selected them and stopped at the Chu and Liu families. He smiled and said, "These two families are not bad. They seem to be wealthy enough. But the Liu family has recently spent a large sum of money to hire two physical martial artists. That's not a big threat, but the Liu family's location, close to the county government, is a bit tricky. But this Chu family..." Seeing this, Broom Eyebrow hurriedly smiled and said, "This Chu family is good. I have observed that this Chu family has not hired any warriors to guard the courtyard, and the location is also relatively remote. The only thing we need to pay attention to is that this young master of the Chu family seems to have learned some martial arts and may be a martial artist at the physical realm." "A second-level flesh-training warrior is nothing." The sturdy man sneered, his eyes burning as he said, “But you missed a very important point. This young master of the Chu family is indeed rich, but he has a sister who is a formal disciple of the Hidden Water Sect, and the Hidden Water Sect is not to be trifled with." "A disciple of the Hidden Water Sect?!" Broom Eyebrow suddenly broke out in a sweat, knowing that he had leaked the information. It seems that the boss Wei has arranged more than one person to gather information in the city. He hurriedly made amends with a flattering smile, "Master Wei, this disciple of the Hidden Water Sect is, after all, a distant water cannot put out a nearby fire. As long as we act cleanly, there are so many bandits in this world, who would know it was us? By the time his sister found out her brother was dead and rushed back, there were no clues left.” "Humph! Of course I know all this, otherwise why would you choose the Chu family? You are new to the group and not very experienced. If you leak information again next time, I will teach you a lesson." Fu Wei's eyes flashed with ferocity, and he looked at the booklet in detail, then said thoughtfully, "We are horse bandits, we move to another place after robbing, and we have the support of the Holy Church, so we are not afraid of the Hidden Water Sect. For the great cause of the Holy Religion, we can sacrifice our egos and forge a glorious path for the Holy Religion." When the Holy Religion was mentioned, everyone suddenly became fanatical. Fu Wei said, "Since we did a job a few days ago, the city lieutenant and others are still investigating and have not figured out our specific situation. We can still enter the city to rob again. The Chu family is indeed more suitable." "Boss, tell us what you plan to do. We brothers will work hard for you!" a short and fat man at the side said fiercely.
Fu Wei thought about it for a while, and after making up his mind, he shook the list of wealthy businessmen in his hand and said in a deep voice, "Report this list to the base first. This time I will take action personally, lead three people into the city, travel light, and end the battle quickly and decisively. The rest of you, scatter outside the city and plunder, then flee into the mountains and forests to attract the city captain's attention, so that he will think we are still outside the city." After saying that, he squinted at Saozhu Mei and said, "Wu Sheng, you still have to explore carefully. If this thing succeeds, you can follow us, and then I can recommend you to join the sect." Hearing this, Broom Eyebrow said happily, "Okay! I'll do it right away." after one day. Chu family. In a quiet room. Heavy and terrifying breathing sounds like that of a tiger or wild beast slowly spread out. The picture zoomed in, showing a tall young man with dark blue skin mixed with bronze, posing like a ferocious tiger and circulating his Qi and blood. It was Chu Ge who successfully broke through the fourth level, the blood exchange level, after four days of practice. At this moment, his blood and energy were surging, and streams of invisible energy were rising from his body. It was invisible to the naked eye, but it made the air flowing around him seem slightly disordered, as if there was an invisible air flow surging. A moth flapped its wings and flew towards him. Before it got within half a foot of him, it suddenly began to struggle and spin around as if it was dizzy, as if it was caught in an invisible air turbulence. Not even a feather can be added, and not a fly or insect can land! When Chu Ge opened his mouth, the vocal cords in his throat vibrated and he let out a low tiger roar. "Roar!--" A stream of vibrating air spurted out from his throat. The moth was instantly blown to pieces. The rows of candles on the opposite side were extinguished or even collapsed in an instant, with wisps of white smoke rising. Through inner perception, Chu Ge could sense that the energy of Qi and blood had penetrated deep into his bones and meridians, and had begun to enter his internal organs, strengthening them. Even in some tiny blood vessels and various nerve endings, there is a kind of "air", like dandelion seeds blown away and scattered to every corner. Now, all the bones in his body felt slightly itchy and tingling, which was the bone marrow changing blood and full of vitality. After four days of seclusion and consuming more than one hundred and twenty strands of special powers, he finally broke through and was officially in the fourth stage of martial arts - the blood exchange stage. This level is already among the best in Linyuan City, and is considered the strongest realm that can be achieved before cultivating special powers. "Now my entire body of flesh, blood, and bones seem to be filled with strength! It's not just physical strength, but a kind of surging energy that can explode at any time! It's much stronger than before." Chu Ge was excited. I have been traveling through time for three years and practicing martial arts for about two and a half years. It is really inseparable from my hard work day and night to get to where I am now. He walked out of the quiet room and came to the spacious martial arts training room outside.
The figure flashed. A loud bang echoed in the closed training room. A stone mill weighing a thousand pounds was tilted by Chu Ge's casual palm. This is the Tiger King's Heart-Ripping Move of Crouching Tiger Fist. Almost at the moment when the stone mill tilted, Chu Ge took advantage of the situation and kicked out with a spinning kick, hitting the stone mill like a tiger's tail. “Long!——” The stone mill exploded and he jumped quickly like a tiger leaping over a ravine, rushing out diagonally, bending his elbows and raising his shoulders, with his arm muscles bulging like entangled pythons, and he hit the stone mill hard in the center with a head-on collision, and a stream of boiling energy condensed from his body left his body. There was a loud bang, a strong wind blew, stone powder flew everywhere, and the center of the stone mill directly cracked and a big gap appeared. It flew out with a bang, fell to the ground and rolled several times until it hit the wall and stopped. These movements are exactly the same as those demonstrated by Hu Xuezhi, and are even more coherent and ferocious. "My strength has increased a lot! The most important thing is that my Qi and blood now protect my internal organs and heart meridians. It would be difficult for other masters in the blood exchange realm to severely damage my lungs, and..." "Qi and blood are surging, and Qi energy is released!" Chu Ge exhaled, and suddenly his body shot outwards like a bow, and his arms bent inwards as if holding a ball. This is the tiger pounce and bear hug technique in Crouching Tiger Fist. As he hugged me, the blood in my body surged. Suddenly, the air around his body formed a circle, and the ground was whistling, with an actual humming sound. He suddenly growled and threw his arms around. Boom! A stream of air rushed out, instantly causing the surrounding tables and chairs to shatter like fallen leaves in the wind, rolling in all directions and smashing into pieces. "it is good!" Chu Ge suddenly withdrew his hands, and the hair dancing in the wind fell on his shoulders, and his blood and energy calmed down. After this little trial, he knew that in terms of Qi and blood power alone, even though he had just broken through, he might already be stronger than Hu Xuezhi who had displayed his strength that day. Even if the opponent has some hidden weaknesses, if they really fight, the Blood Exchange Realm martial artist with declining Qi and blood will not be as good as a newcomer like him with vigorous Qi and blood in terms of Qi and blood burst and sustainability. "Now that I have officially broken through the blood exchange realm, I only need to wait for the blood in my bone marrow to be completely replaced. My realm will be stabilized as for the strength coagulation realm." Chu Ge pondered, he didn't know much about the realm that required spiritual qualifications to enter. There are no masters in the Condensation Realm in Linyuan City. Maybe I need to leave Linyuan City, or go through my elder sister Chu Feixue to know more information about that realm. "Calculating the time, the last letter I sent to my elder sister, she should have received it a long time ago. I don't know when she will reply." As his qi and blood calmed down, his skin, which had turned from blue to bronze, returned to normal. He looked down at the dragon bell on his wrist.
It was discovered that the wooden fish and red-scaled claw fish that had been offered as sacrifices at Linshan Temple had been refined after several days. After the wooden fish was refined, it did not show any special functions, but turned into two strands of strange power. Obviously, the most precious thing about this wooden fish is its special power. The abbot of Linshan Temple might not be a high-level monk. He has been chanting sutras, reciting Buddhist scriptures and striking the object for many years, but he has not been able to give the object any special abilities. However, the red-scaled claw fish has been refined to develop a special innate ability. "Red Claws: (Red Claws Scale Fish Talent) (After mastering it, you can inherit the corresponding low-level talent. The specific degree of inheritance depends on your own physical constitution and bloodline. If the rejection is strong, the degree of fit is low. If the degree of fit is high, the claws will be invulnerable to swords and guns, not afraid of water and fire, and the strength will be enhanced. This talent will gradually disappear as the power of the bloodline is consumed. Maintaining this talent state requires the consumption of special power)". (End of this chapter)
