Martial Arts Master in the City

Zhou Hao's shout of "Boss" drew everyone's attention at the scene.

Who is Zhou Hao's boss? Who would he call boss?

All eyes fixed on Zhou Hao's side, the person who was slowly getting up, originally defined as a corpse, Ye Xiao!

"This…"

At this moment, everyone felt it was incredible. Wasn't he dead? How could he still be alive?

At this moment, Ye Xiao's face was ashen, yet he sat up by himself, sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.

"Brother!" Ye Ziyan saw Ye Xiao sit up and instantly shouted in surprise. She immediately wanted to run over to Ye Xiao but was stopped by Wang Luoxin.

"Ziyan, wait a minute!" Wang Luoxin pulled Ye Ziyan back and said.

Ye Ziyan immediately looked at Wang Luoxin and said, "Sister, what are you doing?"

Wang Luoxin threw Feng Hai to the ground and looked at Ye Ziyan, saying, "Ye Xiao should be regulating his internal energy now. You can't go over immediately; wait a bit."

Regulating internal energy?

But didn't Ye Xiao take the Qi Transformation Powder?

This thought flashed through everyone's mind.

Even Chen Cangyu and Liuyue were shocked; no one knew what was happening.

Though Zhou Hao shouted "Boss," he was stunned, feeling the urge to say 'resurrected.'

Amid the crowd's surprise, Ye Xiao sat cross-legged on the ground, and a clockwise airflow slowly formed around him. It grew stronger until it enveloped Ye Xiao in everyone's eyes.

Everyone believed Ye Xiao had just died, but in fact, the Qi Transformation Powder, though intense, wasn't lethal. Those who understood refining medicine could see that what happened to Ye Xiao just now had nothing to do with the Qi Transformation Powder.

In truth, when Ye Xiao heard from Feng Hai that there was poison in the food, he was terrified, though outwardly calm. But it was the Qi Transformation Powder, which could instantly turn a martial arts master into waste.

Ye Xiao was confident, but it was based on his strength.

Though the amount of Qi Transformation Powder he took wasn't enough to turn his Nine Yang True Qi to ashes, it rendered his True Qi inconsiderably unmanageable, making fighting impossible. Of course, there was also the risk of forcibly driving True Qi, leading to madness or immediate death.

Ye Xiao naturally didn't want to die, but although he knew about the Qi Transformation Powder, he hadn't heard of any antidote. If there was no antidote, wouldn't he be done for?

Feng Hai hated him to the bone and wished him dead. If Ye Xiao couldn't resist, Feng Hai wouldn't stop until he was dead.

So Ye Xiao thought and finally came up with one thing.

Dragon Blood Strengthening Pills!

According to Liu Wenzhuo, the Dragon Blood Strengthening Pills were a kind of cheating pill for martial artists, quite against natural laws.

Dead either way, Ye Xiao decided to gamble everything.

So, while Ye Xiao intentionally yawned, he immediately swallowed the Dragon Blood Strengthening Pills that had been successfully refined the previous night.

Ye Xiao didn't know the effectiveness of these pills or whether the ones he refined would work, or whether they were beneficial or poisonous.

However, once Ye Xiao consumed the Dragon Blood Strengthening Pills, he immediately felt like a fireball had entered his stomach and intestines.

That fireball was like the Samadhi True Fire, instantly burning Ye Xiao alive, feeling like he was going to die, suffering the pain of skinning, tendon extraction, and bone removal. Always able to endure, Ye Xiao completely couldn't, losing consciousness.

The Dragon Blood Strengthening Pills refined by Ye Xiao were indeed successful, and their effect was even slightly more potent than Liu Wenzhuo's description, surpassing expectations.

After a painful transformation, Ye Xiao's consciousness slowly returned, even clearly hearing conversations around him.

Chen Cangyu looked at Liuyue and whispered, "Mr. Liuyue, what's going on? Wasn't it said that after taking Qi Transformation Powder, all Inner Power True Qi would be voided? This…"

Though Liuyue was a martial arts expert and a member of the Flame Dragon Team, he genuinely hadn't seen such things before. Dead and alive again? Immediately sitting cross-legged, with a strong True Qi protecting him.

"Could he be breaking through?" Liuyue's words even surprised himself.

Breaking through from Xuan Rank to Earth Rank?

How's this possible? Ye Xiao's age is too young for that.

Liuyue considered himself a genius, but if Ye Xiao broke through to Earth Rank now, he was not just a genius but a prodigy.

An ordinary person at this age couldn't reach Earth Rank.

Speaking of Ye Xiao, within the True Qi vortex, his Inner Power True Qi was rapidly recovering; no, it should be said it's increasing!

Ye Xiao's ashen face was now gradually regaining brightness.

Ye Xiao could feel the speed of his True Qi's increase, incredibly fast, surprising him, contemplating if this was the proverbial turnaround after suffering. Before this, the rolling pain made him feel close to death.

But now?

Ye Xiao felt the increase in True Qi was practically limitless.

About to break through?

Ye Xiao's Inner Power True Qi had nearly reached its peak, at least the same storage level as before at the Peak of Xuan Rank, but it didn't stop, continuing to increase.

Ye Xiao quickly practiced the Nine Yang Divine Skill, knowing this was the perfect period to do so.

Thus, the Nine Yang True Qi continued to increase rapidly.

Finally, Ye Xiao's Nine Yang True Qi broke through the limitation of the Xuan Rank, directly reaching the Earth Rank.

Upon reaching Earth Rank, the rapid increase of True Qi slowed but continued forward.

After just ten minutes, Ye Xiao's True Qi was nearly approaching the Middle Stage of Earth Rank, finally slowing down!

Middle Stage of Earth Rank?

Ye Xiao himself couldn't believe it; he had narrowly jumped to Earth Rank and was nearly at Mid-Earth Rank.

At this moment, Ye Xiao was exhilarated, truly ecstatic.
