Chapter 334: Chapter 142: Potent Effects (3)

Flesh, fresh blood, and shattered bones splattered instantly.

“Sigh, still wasted a unit of Source Power.”

“I hope the things on you are worth something.”

Lin Zheyu looked at the man’s corpse and muttered to himself.

He just wanted to cultivate quietly and live steadily, but mysterious troubles always found him.

In this world, being a good person is not an easy task either.

Lin Zheyu quickly searched the man’s body, shoving everything into his bag, then swiftly turned and left.

He took out a bag of purple powder from the bag, sprinkled it on himself to remove the scent, and then his figure flickered and disappeared into the mountains and forests.

Better leave now while the Blood Boiling Secret Skill’s effect is still active.

Even if someone is tracking in secret, trying to catch up with me after using the Blood Boiling Secret Skill is not an easy task.

If they can catch up, their strength must be so terrifying that tracking wouldn’t be necessary.

Whoosh whoosh.

Lin Zheyu’s speed was extremely fast, and after rushing out two to three thousand meters, the effect of the Blood Boiling Secret Skill began to wane.

He stopped, used a unit of Source Power to restore his body to its peak.

Then continued on his way.

To avoid leaving traces, he specifically chose areas with fog, miasma, and brambles to prevent being followed.

…

After Lin Zheyu left, more than ten minutes passed.

A middle-aged man followed the marks left in the mountains and forests, catching up.

“Why is the smell of blood so strong, did Old Fourth make the first move?”

The man’s brows furrowed slightly, and as a gentle breeze blew by, he caught a whiff of a rich bloody scent.

His feet moved, speeding up greatly, rushing in the direction of the bloody scent.

Through the dense forest, what came into view was a familiar, headless corpse.

For a moment, the man was stunned, then a look of sorrow, fury, and ferocity appeared on his face.

“Old Fourth!”

A sorrowful and angry roar rang through the forest, splintering the surrounding trees.

By this time, Lin Zheyu had already left there, entering deep into the mountains.

He found a place to change out of his blood-stained clothes, grabbing Xiaohei and continued running into the deep mountains.

“Having run so far, even if someone is behind, it’s impossible for them to catch up now.”

Lin Zheyu stopped by a stream and muttered to himself.

His brows furrowed slightly, and a ringing sound emerged in his ears.

After using the Blood Boiling Secret Skill, his spirit once again fell into a state of exhaustion.

“Xiaohei, go catch a ferocious beast first, gather some firewood for a barbecue, and as for you running around, I’ll deal with you later.”

Lin Zheyu glared at Xiaohei and instructed.

Chirp chirp…

Xiaohei weakly chirped twice and dashed away into the distance.

Lin Zheyu approached the stream and cupped some water to wash his face, rubbing his hands together, gradually restoring his face to its original appearance.

The creek water was icy cold.

Under the stimulus of the cold creek water, he felt the headache easing significantly.

Unknowingly, Lin Zheyu felt that his tolerance for pain had indeed increased significantly.

If it had been in the past, after depleting his spirit, he would likely have suffered for a while.

But now, he only frowned slightly and could still run far away with Xiaohei.

“Better check if the things on him are of any value; otherwise, it’ll be a big loss.”

Lin Zheyu murmured to himself softly.

From the bag, he took out the things he had searched from the person one by one.

After counting, there were a total of eighty-two taels of gold, plus several bottles of elixirs, some medicine pills, and poisons.

“This jade medallion…”

“Is that guy from the Tang Family?”

Seeing the Tang character on the jade medallion, Lin Zheyu’s mind raced.

He couldn’t figure out where he had offended the Tang Family.

Could it be that one of those three earlier was from the Tang Family?

“Forget it, Tang Family or not, I’ve already offended the Pei Family, so offending another Tang Family doesn’t matter.”

Lin Zheyu muttered as he tossed the jade medallion into the stream.

It was Zhao Hao’s appearance that killed the person, and it was also Zhao Hao who showed up earlier.

What does it have to do with me, Lin Zheyu?

I’m just a Martial Artist of the Qi Blood Five Transformations.

“Huh, this knife seems a bit unusual.”

Lin Zheyu fiddled with a small black iron knife about the size of a palm.

The knife looked extremely ordinary; if it were tossed on the ground, he wouldn’t even give it a second glance.

But for such an ordinary item to be kept close by a Bone Marrow Refining Realm expert was rather peculiar.

Although he didn’t understand, the knife surely had its uncommon aspects.

Lin Zheyu put the knife away and placed it with the treasure map.

These incomprehensible yet somewhat extraordinary items he stored away for potential future use.

“This bottle contains Essence Qi Elixirs, a total of sixty-eight. If I sold them, they’d fetch quite a few silver taels.”

Lin Zheyu opened a bottle of elixirs, counting them, and found sixty-eight in total.

Along with what he randomly acquired earlier, which he hadn’t used, he now had eighty-nine Essence Qi Elixirs in total.

Based on the auction price from before, one Essence Qi Elixir could sell for about one hundred and twenty-five taels of silver.

If he sold them all, they could fetch over ten thousand taels of silver.

Unfortunately, Lin Zheyu hadn’t found an appropriate channel.

No one in the black market was selling Essence Qi Elixirs, and if he rashly sold them, he feared attracting unwanted attention.

“Better hold on to them and wait for a chance to sell.”

Lin Zheyu thought to himself.

According to Lee Lingyun’s introduction, the Essence Qi Elixir is used to help Martial Artists of the Qi Blood Realm refine their qi blood.

Lin Zheyu, with Source Power assistance, didn’t need it and might as well exchange it for silver taels to purchase Fiery Flame Blood-Burning Powder directly.

This medicinal material, with its terrifying side effects, contained extremely potent medicinal power, making its cost-effectiveness the highest for him.

Lin Zheyu continued to check the scattered items.

Apart from the Essence Qi Elixirs, gold, and that black iron knife, they were not very valuable.

Oh, and there were three blood-red medicine pills.

He had also obtained the same medicine pills from a Pei Family martial artist in the past, also three.

The other person, like him at the time, had used a Life-or-Death Martial Skill, but paired with a blood-red medicine pill.

“Are these pills used by family Martial Artists for desperate situations…”

“I wonder if they can help restore the spirit.”

Lin Zheyu gazed at the pills in his hand, pondering.

He pondered for a moment, intending to test their effect.

He took a blood-red pill from the jade bottle and placed it in his mouth.

The pill was fragrant and melted instantly, dissolving in his saliva after a few chews.

A refreshing sensation spread from his abdomen, and the continuously absorbed medicinal power transformed into rich energy, merging into his blood.

“Huh!”

Lin Zheyu let out a surprised sound.

The pill’s effect was excellent, quickly being absorbed upon consumption, transforming into abundant qi blood energy.

While on the run earlier, only less than twenty percent of his qi blood power remained, which was rapidly recovering.

At the same time, a cold sensation surged into his mind.

The headache from the previously depleted spirit began to slowly diminish as the cold sensation flowed in.

“What a treasure!”

“What kind of pill is this that it can help restore spirit and qi blood?”

Lin Zheyu was utterly amazed.

It was the first time he discovered a pill that could aid in spirit recovery.

If he had enough of these pills, he could shorten the time to break through limits and accelerate the acquisition of Source Power.

“Such powerful medicinal power, the qi blood power is recovering so fast!”

Lin Zheyu marveled, sensing the continuously refined qi blood energy in his body.

“I wonder where I can buy this kind of pill and how much it costs…”

Lin Zheyu muttered softly.

He took out the remaining two pills, placed them with the previous three, and kept them close.

Such precious pills are indeed treasures, lifesaving in critical moments.
