Chapter 116: Chapter 75: Advancing to the Qi-Blood

Realm! Lifespan Limit!_4

After a while, the operation of the Turtle Breathing True Qi gradually stabilized, but compared to before, a tremendous change had already taken place.

Turtle Breath Technique (7th tier Profound Mastery 1%)

If the original Turtle Breathing True Qi was a streaming creek, it had now become a galloping waterfall!

“Hoo!”

Su Changkong took a deep breath, operated his Turtle Breathing True Qi, gathering it in his lungs. When it reached its peak, he suddenly opened his mouth and exhaled forcefully.

“Whoosh!”

A thick, solid stream of True Qi, like a blue water arrow, trailed a shadow and with the swiftness of a thunderbolt, struck the wooden cup placed on the bedside table.

“Crack!”

In the sound of the explosion, the wooden cup shattered as if it had been furiously hammered, bursting apart into fragments.

“The Turtle Breath Technique has reached the 7th tier, my True Qi is far more robust than before, to the extent that it can leave the body, breathing out an

arrow of Qi!”

Su Changkong couldn’t help but marvel; this was the power of Inner Strength! Even though it was weak at the beginning, as one’s skill deepened, it could gradually reveal some astonishing and horrifying abilities!

Su Changkong was able to breathe out an arrow, killing enemies within a range of ten feet, something unimaginable to the average martial artist.

“If that Chief Liu of the Black Lotus Sect is resurrected, I will have to show him what true cruelty is,” Su Changkong thought to himself.

Almost half a year ago, when facing Liu Bairen, Liu Bairen had pressed the weak with his strength, nearly causing Su Changkong to meet his demise on the spot. But if Liu Bairen were to come back to life now, today’s Su Changkong, without resorting to hidden weapons or the like, could crush him with one hand!

Su Changkong opened his attribute panel and saw that after his breakthrough into the Qi-Blood Realm, both Five Animal Frolics and the Turtle Breath Technique had also broken through, increasing his lifespan to the upper limit of 130 years!

A lifespan of 130 years was definitely close to the limit of human longevity. As far as Su Changkong knew, the longest-lived people on Blue Planet were only around 140 to 150 years old, and such individuals were one in billions!

And Su Changkong had nearly reached this level. His potential value also reached a significant milestone of 20 points. Both his talent and comprehension stepped up a level, becoming more and more monstrous! With his breakthrough into the Qi-Blood Realm, and new levels of both Turtle Breath Technique and the Five-Animal Frolics, Su Changkong finally felt a slight sense of relaxation.

Warriors in the Qi-Blood Realm, even in a large city like Ink Forest Prefecture City, were quite rare, recognized as masters. Even if one joined the military of the Great Flame Empire, they could join some elite, highly celebrated units and distinguish themselves!

“I need to earn more money! With more money, I can refine Qi-Blood Pills and continue to transform my Qi and Blood until I reach the peak!”

Su Changkong was not content with the status quo.

“Tomorrow, I’ll go see Wan Xun. I still have over fifty Vivid Qi Pills on me. I’ll keep a few for myself and sell the rest to recover some of the costs.” Previously, Su Changkong had practiced his Alchemy by refining Vivid Qi Pills. Over three months, he had attempted nearly three hundred batches, most of which ended in failure. Only a little over fifty pills were successful. It would be good to sell them and recover some costs.

The next morning, Su Changkong changed his facial appearance, dressed in black, and once again visited Wanling Pavilion.

“Mr. Li, please come in!”

Wan Xun, the person in charge of Wanling Pavilion, warmly invited Su Changkong inside.

During this period, Su Changkong had spent forty to fifty thousand taels of silver at Wanling Pavilion, making him a valued customer without a doubt!

In the private room on the second floor of Wanling Pavilion, Su Changkong got straight to the point, “Manager Wan, I’ve acquired some pill medicine recently and would like to see how much they could sell for.”

Su Changkong took out a bottle of Vivid Qi Pills from his bosom and placed it on the table.

Wan Xun opened the bottle, took out a pill, and carefully observed its appearance and even gave it a sniff.

After a long moment, Wan Xun said with a wry smile, “Mr. Li, this must be a Vivid Qi Pill refined by an Alchemist while practicing, right? As for the quality, it’s passable, but it doesn’t come close to being excellent. We at Wanling Pavilion have Vivid Qi Pills for sale with dedicated suppliers, so I’m afraid we can’t purchase Mr. Li’s Vivid Qi Pills.”

As the manager of Wanling Pavilion, Wan Xun had seen countless treasures and medicinal materials; his discernment was astonishing. He easily identified the quality of the pills Su Changkong had provided and even understood their quality.

Barely passable, far from excellent. It was a frank evaluation of the pills that Su Changkong had refined while practicing, which indeed varied in quality. And Wanling Pavilion wasn’t about to sell these inconsistent Vivid Qi Pills in their store. If someone noticed the discrepancy, it might affect the Wan Family’s reputation.

Upon hearing this, Su Changkong did not make it difficult for Wan Xun. He didn’t want to be indebted over a small amount of money, so he asked, “Then do you know where nearby I can sell these Vivid Qi Pills without any concern?” Su Changkong then asked Wan Xun where he could sell the pills and implied he was asking about the location of the Ghost Market without any concern. Generally, every place has its Ghost Market; like Clearwater City had one, so it was certain that there was one near Ink Forest Prefecture City, and with Wan Xun’s extensive knowledge, he would most likely be aware of it!

Knowing where the Ghost Market was, Su Changkong could sell his Vivid Qi Pills there at a slightly better price.. If it came to it, he could also forge some fine crossbow bolts to sell at a high price and make money!
