With Countless Qualities Bestowed Upon Me, I Shall Ultimately Become Immortal

Lu Zhuxiao felt a burst of joy in his heart; it seemed the principal was on the same page with him!

[Understood!]

[Good that you understand, I have to go; talk later.]

[Principal, you go ahead!]

After hanging up the phone, Lu Zhuxiao pondered silently which little rascal went to the principal to report him.

"Isn't it that they want me to teach? If I catch them, they won't hear the end of it..."

...

Evening at the Huayun Prefecture household.

After dinner, Meng Chuan was digesting food while reviewing [Cyan Nether Dragon-locking Skill] and listening to his uncle and aunt's chatter.

The more demonic clouds loomed, the more he cherished the rare warmth of family.

Who knew when this peace might be shattered by chaos.

Meng Yongzhi was holding a walnut in each hand, silently playing with them.

He was scared to be scolded by his wife, and since Meng Chuan was reading, he was just fiddling around like this.

Upon seeing a local news flash on his phone, he asked:

"Chuan'er, the news says they are developing the west side of Lishan Mountain near Yong'an.

After it's finished, there will be more special Martial Arts University branches settling in, and your martial exam is in two months. Does this give you more options?"

Like when they built the Martial Arts Competition Center in town.

Nowadays, both technology and manpower have improved significantly, and productivity has increased several times over.

Even though the west side of Lishan Mountain is just starting its foundation.

In a few months, powerful technological methods and extraordinary martial artists will demonstrate what it means to erect a soaring building in just a few months.

Meng Chuan was attached to his home and didn't want to go too far away.

The only two choices were the Northern United University right in front of Lishan and the Yanhua branch a bit farther.

Hearing this, he shook his head and said:

"Uncle, I've basically decided on United University; their foundation in Yong'an is deep, and I know more people there, making it convenient for martial arts training."

As always, the gratitude owed to Northern United University is endless...

"Alright, it's up to you to decide."

Meng Yongzhi didn't worry about these things anymore; he just brought it up in passing today.

With Meng Chuan's capabilities, he should be the one choosing the Martial Arts University, not the other way around.

"Alright, Uncle."

From his current perspective, more special Martial Arts Universities settling in Yong'an has its pros and cons.

Yong'an's resources are like a big cake, with its size remaining constant.

Previously, the Northern United University and Yanhua took the bigger share, while Yong'an Martial Arts University and some second and third-tier martial arts schools took the smaller share.

But as more special Martial Arts Universities move into Yong'an, there are more "guests" to share the cake, yet the size of the cake remains unchanged.

This means only those who are quick and strong can get the largest piece.

Never think about "equal distribution." If a martial artist doesn't fight and strive, then what's the point of training?

But there are also advantages for himself. Increased competition for resources has become a given; it's a time when "heroes emerge from turmoil."

With a stronger fist, he could take a bigger piece of the cake than before.

If he can stand out in this situation, his rise will certainly accelerate significantly.

The word "humility" doesn't exist in Meng Chuan's dictionary, just as he never says to Master Lu:

"Teacher, it's time for class."

Why give up the privilege earned through skill?

However, if preparatory students have questions to ask him, Meng Chuan is happy to teach; these are two different matters.

"I will do my best, without worrying about others' opinions. Master is back; time to ask how to work on this Cyan Nether Dragon-locking Skill..."

...

Time flew by, and June 6th came in the blink of an eye.

In recent days, Yong'an's high authorities were still diligently pursuing the traces of the Demon Path Grandmaster, [Blood-Drinking Demon Sword · Li Xiao].

This person seemed to have vanished from the world; masters turned the Jiao Demon Nest upside down, checking all its nodes, but finding no trace of him.

Ultimately, the high authorities unanimously conceded.

This person had control of unknown nest node passages within Yong'an City.

He might have already used these passages to escape to other unknown places.

With numerous grandmaster affairs and martial arts training awaiting, not to mention the Demon Nest waiting for development.

Therefore, Yong'an City announced the cancellation of the grandmaster rotation guard system.

To ensure productive development, a patrol system within the Demon Nest was established...

However, none of the grandmasters in town complained; through the [Grandmaster Committee], after discussions with Great Chu and the Zhou family, they received a lot of resources.

Even Luo Guanyun, who was notoriously grumpy and impatient about guarding the Demon Nest, changed his tune.

Recently, when it was his turn to patrol, he even wore a cheerful face.

They gave so much, he couldn't justify not patrolling diligently, especially with those zeros credited to his bank account.

Some days ago, because Meng Chuan wanted to learn the Cyan Nether Dragon-locking Skill, he communicated with that old Daoist Zhao Shousui.

With a life-saving favor in his hands, the old Daoist agreed to teach without charging a fee, asking only for the preparation of [Cyan Nether Two Qi].

In the Daoist jargon, Cyan Qi is fully called [Pure Celestial Cyan Qi].

It requires collection of Celestial Cyan Qi from the clouds after a thunderstorm night, refined for several months to obtain a wisp of purity.

Nether Qi, on the other hand, is a mountain dragon vein's malevolent energy, also known in Daoist terms as [Dragon Fall Qi].

But its ferocity is too great; it must be filtered with thousand-year peach wood charcoal before it can be safely absorbed by the human body.

Both are typically circulated only within Daoist circles; Elder Zhao has connections to get them.

The middleman doesn't take a cut, costing a total of only 28,880 yuan.

The elder explained:

[These two items are necessary for entry into the "Cyan Nether Dragon-locking," to forge a true dragon tendons and bones, one must first endure these two hardships to temper oneself.

Unless one's body refinement talent is outstanding, even with these two qi elements, cultivation cannot be achieved.

I see potential in your disciple, his aptitude for cultivating hard skills is remarkable. That's why I'm offering assistance. I advise 99% of people to give up.]

Hearing this, Luo Guanyun took them with tears, hence his wallet was depleted.

The martial arts school's development has recently entered a stable period, not like when it opened, earning tens of millions in a day.

While a part maintains the operation of the martial arts school, the remaining can only earn about ten million per month.

He still needs to save money to buy gloves, this patrol system seems like a timely rain, his wallet has therefore bulged considerably.

Realizing this, today it was his turn to patrol.

While wandering, Luo Guanyun thought to himself:

"Li Xiao, you damn well hide a bit longer, whatever you do, don't show up elsewhere…"

A day as a monk means ringing the bell for a day, a day patrolling means a day's paycheck.

...

At the same time.

Just at dawn, Aunt Xue Na went to the market early in the morning to buy groceries.

Today is Meng Chuan's birthday, and a bunch of friends are coming over to the house.

Because today is Meng Chuan's traditional 18-year-old coming-of-age ceremony.

Though, after Qi Blood Martial Arts flourished, Great Chu set the standard for adulthood at 16.

But the people remain traditional, so the concept of the 18-year-old coming-of-age ceremony has not been abolished.

She heard from Meng Chuan's friend Wang Yue that several female classmates from United University's preparatory high school are also coming, each beautiful and with martial arts talent.

She must buy more shelled items, lest others think Meng Chuan's family is too poor to afford them.

Thinking this, Xue Na haggled with the seafood shop owner in front of her.

"Boss, give me two... three two-pound lobsters, and find some big live crabs for me, give me a discount, or I'll buy elsewhere."

"You choose first, no problem, all are alive and kicking!"

This kind of big transaction might not happen even once in a day, so the boss is naturally agreeable.

Inside Huayun Prefecture.

Meng Chuan woke up earlier than his aunt.

Upon waking, he sat down to practice Dragon Sitting Meditation.

Unable to break through the second level for a long time, he watched a teaching video by Wudang's Zhang Xiantian Celestial King and asked his master several times.

This method is also practiced by Master Luo, who told Meng Chuan he's about to break through the third level...

"Is there a bottleneck in breaking through the second level of Dragon Sitting Meditation? Why don't I feel it, isn't it just practicing until having multiple spiritual Xiaohuang dragons in my mind?"

Meng Chuan felt helpless, so he continued to condense daily as explained.

Seeing the sunrise about to rise, he operated the final mantra once more, then slowly got up to prepare for outdoor boxing.

Today again, he couldn't break through.

But he feels, the reason for the delay in realm breakthrough isn't due to not knowing the method.

But because the total spiritual power is insufficient, Master Luo, being a Martial Arts Grandmaster with [Essence, Qi, and Spirit] Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, his spirit must be full, hence he breaks through rapid as bamboo.

His talent lies in muscles and fists, innate spiritual power falls short, can't even condense the dragon head of the second Xiaohuang dragon.

Currently, there's no good method, just relying on daily practice of Dragon Sitting Meditation to gradually increase the total spiritual power.

At this time, Xue Na returned home from grocery shopping, saw Meng Chuan going out, and reminded him:

"Come back early, don't get all sweaty, it won't look good when friends come at noon."

Meng Yongzhi was standing at the door changing clothes, preparing to go to the police bureau for work.

He is a Qi Blood Martial Artist at three barriers, hearing his wife speak, he inserted knowledgeably:

"Chuan is almost a martial artist, unlike you old folks, he doesn't sweat anymore."

Xue Na retorted:

"So what, how mysterious, martial artists are still human, right?"

Meng Chuan felt helpless, his uncle and aunt found opportunities to bicker from time to time.

"Got it, aunt."

Saying this, he happened to go out with Meng Yongzhi.

After separating from his uncle, Meng Chuan tapped his toes a few times, like a qinggong master from the old days, floated a few breaths before finding a secluded place.

While standing still to regulate breath, he looked at the panel.

[Rushing Thunder Scattered Hands: Skilled (99%)]

"Yesterday during the pre-high test of qi blood, I reached 243 points, only today mastery of scattered hands to break nine is left!"

Rushing Thunder Scattered Hands was already near mastery yesterday, just short the final step today.

Ever since realizing something underwater last time, he hasn't felt it again.

But the second function of [Hearing Dao Morning and Evening] "Reverse Trace Pattern," was fortunately triggered several times while practicing martial arts with Lu Zhuxiao.

Like the Cyan Dragon's Claw from Eight Trigrams, Wing Chun's Elbow Hand Punch.

Four hundred years in history, Qi Family Boxing's Yaksha Sea Exploration.

An analysis of classic moves in these fist skills, Meng Chuan successfully broke down the essence of their moves during subsequent review and slowly converted them to his own.

But for those much lower in strength than him, like Zheng Zhenzhen and Meng Jiaolong, it's difficult to trigger this function during each sparring.

Because it requires [injury or intense confrontation] to trigger.

With his thick hard skills, qi blood near nine barriers, the two women can hardly break through his defense, let alone get intense.

But Meng Chuan feels, perhaps intense confrontation might have a chance to trigger.

But the method of triggering is quite evil, what might be realized might not be the essence of boxing skills, but rather chamber tactics...

No need to elaborate, he is a decent person, disdainful of this!
