Chapter 369: Chapter 154: Building Strength for a Swift Breakthrough

Outside Celestial Blade Peak.

Tang Weizhong was originally standing not far away, with a look like he was watching a play.

The moment one emerges from the shroud of blade intent, they unconsciously relax their guard, making it the best time to strike.

As he expected, the assassin from the Soul-Calling Tower made a move.

“Good!”

At the instant the assassin’s longsword thrust out, Tang Weizhong almost shouted out good in acclaim.

However, soon after, Tang Weizhong’s expression quickly turned gloomy.

The development of events was beyond his expectations.

Zhao Hao, even in a state of great Essence, Qi, and Spirit depletion, managed to avoid such a silent assassination.

Then, even more unexpectedly, Lee Guoming from the Lee Family also appeared, saving Zhao Hao at the critical moment.

“Damn it!”

Tang Weizhong cursed angrily, while beside him, Tang Zhengtao couldn’t help but frown.

“I didn’t expect the Lee Family to value that guy so much, willing to dispatch Lee Guoming before even witnessing his talent.”

Tang Zhengtao was quite surprised.

In his view, this assassination attempt should have been a sure success.

With Li Guoyao guarding Celestial Blade Peak and unable to assist, except for Li Guoyao, the Lee Family had no other experts to call upon.

“What should we do next?”

“The Lee Family previously valued him this much; now that Zhao Hao has climbed Celestial Blade Peak for the first time and comprehended a True Intent Seed, his talent is astonishing.”

“In the next half year, the Lee Family is very likely to invite him to hide within their mansion to avoid the assassination of the Soul-Calling Tower.”

Tang Weizhong took a deep breath, feeling very unwilling in his heart, and looked at Tang Zhengtao with a question.

He had to admit a fact, which was that his current strength could no longer pose any threat to Zhao Hao.

Even if he wanted to avenge Tang Weiqiang, he could only rely on others in the Tang Family to act.

“Wait.”

“In the next six months, he’s unlikely to leave the Lee Mansion.”

“But he can’t possibly stay there forever; as soon as he steps out of the Lee Mansion, there will be opportunities to strike.”

“Keep watching him; this issue can’t just be forgotten after he killed a member of our Tang Family.”

“By the way, inform the Pei Family and let them contribute some effort too; they also lost clansmen to Zhao Hao.”

Tang Zhengtao said indifferently, not paying any heed to Lin Zheyu.

What if he condensed a True Intent Seed?

No matter how much of a genius, it would take at least one or two years to transform the True Intent Seed into True Intent.

After transforming it into True Intent, it would take years to integrate the Essence, Qi, and Spirit into it and refine a trace of True Force.

During these years, killing him would be easy as pie for Tang Zhengtao.

…

…

The Lee Mansion was located in the Beihai District of Wuling City, one of the city’s most bustling districts.

The entire Lee Mansion was large and heavily guarded.

Upon entering the Lee Mansion, Lee Mengxi arranged a small courtyard for Lin Zheyu.

Lin Zheyu was to stay in the Lee Mansion for half a year, and as a martial artist, he needed to practice martial arts daily.

For convenience and to give Lin Zheyu some privacy, he directly arranged a small courtyard for Lin Zheyu.

“Young Master, is there anything you need me to do?”

“The young master said if you need anything while practicing martial arts, feel free to ask and don’t stand on ceremony.”

Upon entering the courtyard, Yalan spoke respectfully.

Lee Mengxi specifically recalled Yalan from outside the Celestial Blade Peak to continue serving Lin Zheyu.

“Prepare some restorative decoction for me,” Lin Zheyu said.

After Yalan left, he put away his belongings and came to the courtyard to practice the Wild Bull Fist, solidifying today’s insights.

Whoosh, whoosh~~

The fists blasted out, causing the Qi Force to oscillate, vibrating the air and producing a whooshing sound.

As he practiced, a powerful and extremely tyrannical fist aura rose from his body; it moved with his body, giving a terrifying sense of oppression with every gesture.

Lin Zheyu had comprehended the fist aura of the Wild Bull Fist back in Songyi City.

However, at that time, without guidance or a true intent diagram, he purely relied on his own understanding to comprehend the fist aura.

Later, he continuously fought with fierce beasts, tempering and enhancing the fist aura.

Unfortunately, without a corresponding martial belief and a true intent diagram, his progress in enhancing the fist aura was slow.

But over more than a year, he did not come away empty-handed.

Through continuous battles, tempering the fist aura, practicing the Wild Bull Fist, comprehending the mysteries of the fist skill, he constantly questioned himself, asking what invincible belief and the will of the strong truly were.

Within Lin Zheyu’s heart, many ideas and insights had already formed.

With previous accumulation, only then did he burst forth on Celestial Blade Peak, comprehending the Tyrannical True Intent within the blade intent.

From initially comprehending fist aura to now condensing a True Intent Seed, he spent nearly a year and a half.

After condensing the True Intent Seed, his domineering fist aura was no longer just a castle in the air or a tree without roots.

He could continue to enhance it, knowing it would eventually transform into True Intent.

After practicing for more than an hour, Lin Zheyu finally stopped, panting heavily.

The Qi Blood within his body was completely depleted.

“Young Master, here is the medicinal decoction you requested.”

“This bottle of Essence Qi Elixir was sent by Young Master Meng Xi; it contains thirty pills.”

“The young master said after you finish using them, just let me know, and I’ll get more for you.”

Yalan placed the brewed medicinal decoction on a stone table nearby and handed over a bottle of elixir.

The Essence Qi Elixir is used in the Qi Blood Realm to assist with cultivation and is very effective for refining Qi Blood; it becomes less necessary upon reaching the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.

What Lin Zheyu had shown outwardly was a Bone Marrow Refining Realm level of strength.

The main difference between the Bone Marrow Refining Realm and the Qi Blood Realm is the body’s strength; his physique is stronger than many martial artists in the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.
