Advance the future and become a martial saint on earth!

Chapter 134: The Dragon Girl’s Gift, the Jade Blood Dragon Core Pendant. In just over a month, the secret martial arts was perfected, and the fire of catastrophe burned the clothes!

Seeing that Ji Xiu did not hesitate, he agreed and took the order handed over by himself, representing the iron order of Beicang Marquis Mansion.

Granny Shi's wrinkled face then revealed a smile:

"The boss is decisive."

"In that case, I will return to my residence and report to you, Lady."

"I wonder when the master will come to Jiangyin Prefecture?"

Ji Xiu thought for a moment and said:
"In the early spring after the New Year, Jiangyin Prefecture is recruiting 'prefectural students'. My master asked me to join the prefecture to compete with the children of these big schools and the true disciples of the masters for the title of 'prefectural official'!"

"so."

"After I have practiced in Anning County for more than a month, I will step into the mansion and fight for it!"

Hear this.

Granny Shi leaned on her cane, slightly bent over, and nodded:

"Master Dong is ambitious. Although you are young, your muscles, bones and skin are like hanging on a treasure tree. Whether you walk, sit or lie down, even if you don't move, I can hear your blood and marrow circulate and your internal organs hissing. You have already entered the realm of perfection."

"I don't think anyone of your age can achieve such success."

"I traveled a lot in my early years, but I haven't seen much."

"Although your background is relatively poor, you have enough opportunities acquired later in life to break free from the shackles of the cage. The title of an official in Jiangyin Prefecture is just a starting point."

"This place can't stop you!"

After getting the definite answer, Granny Shi nodded slightly and was about to return with the people from the Marquis' Mansion. She refused Ji Xiu's attempt to retain her, saying that she had to go back to save the princess' life and would not stay any longer.

It was not until he turned around and walked away, looking back in the direction of Ji's residence on West Street, that he felt a slight sigh in his heart.

There were some things she didn't say in front of Ji Xiu.

That is.
Those who are able to comprehend the "immortal seed" and obtain supernatural powers have never been heard of as unknown people.

Only when you can stand out from thousands of people can you meet the one destined person.
It can also combine spirit, soul, tendons and bones, and cultivate to this level at the same time.

From her perspective.

Not to mention Jiangyin Prefecture, even in the vassal state of 'Cangdu', it is enough to stand out in front of those generals and nobles, and the real branches of the aristocratic families.

This boy was able to get this opportunity between the garrison mansion and the Beicang Marquis Mansion in an "incredible" way.

According to those foreign immortals and Buddhas, it is because of their destiny and fate that they are destined to be able to "walk on mountains and rivers and travel by water."

In addition, he took the initiative to contact the Marquis' Mansion with a local treasure, the 'Jade Marrow Cold Lotus', and used it as medicine to treat the legs of the princess Xiao Mingli.

All these things caught the young lady's eye.

"The lady's legs have completely lost sensation. Treatment and recuperation can only delay the symptoms."

"But in terms of effect, it is still not as effective as the few spiritual fish from the 'Eastern Canghai' used as medicine over the years."

"At least if I take it every day, even if I can't find a national player or a genius, I can completely reverse and cure the disease and stop it from getting worse."

"But those silver-striped sharks, glass trout, and black-scaled dragon carp are not only small and rare, but also extremely hard to find in the vast East Cang Ocean of thousands of miles. Whenever they appear, they are scrambled for."

"Even with the Marquis' Mansion as a foundation, it's not like you can just collect it. The fishing business has been serving the Marquis' Mansion all year round, catching spiritual fish, but as the captain of hundreds of boats, the harvest is very small."

"It's useless to catch this kind of water spiritual creature that is as refined as 'earth treasure', even if Qigong masters come. Basically, it's just a matter of luck."

"But it is said that this immortal seed 'Searching Mountains and Chasing Seas', if fully refined, can be enough to ride the wind and waves, walk on water, dive into the vast ocean as if walking on flat ground, and make a person like a dragon in the water or a white shark in the waves!"

"That's not all. It can also produce water ripples on the forehead, just like 'Lord Canglang'. It can accurately capture spiritual fish, spiritual creatures, and underwater treasures among the vast number of mediocre water creatures!"

"Ordinary people may catch spirit fish for three or two months and come up empty-handed."

"But it is said that there is 'water luck'. Those with 'water patterns' are like the darlings of the sea, more favored than those dragons and other creatures. Going out to sea is like catching fish and shrimps as ordinary fishermen can catch spiritual fish. It is extremely easy."

"This boy has been in charge of 'Searching the Mountains and Hunting the Seas' for some time. I checked the county annals and learned that his name as a boss is based on mountain towns and hunting villages, and he is known as the 'Chief of the Eighteen Paths'."

"To have such a reputation, it is obvious that he has refined this talent from the Earth Dragon Cave to a high level."

Granny Shi was very careful and meticulous, and she kept muttering to herself along the way.

Thinking of her young lady Xiao Mingli, who was also a high-spirited and proud girl in the past, but due to the chronic disease of her legs over the years, her foundation has been greatly reduced. She sits in a wheelchair all day, relying on cold and water-based spiritual objects to sustain her life.

I hope this boy's arrival will make her feel better.

If it can really bring about a turnaround, make things better, then your character will pass the test.
Perhaps he could really win the favor of the Marquis and give him a "road to heaven".

Inside Ji Zhai.

Looking at Granny Shi going away.

Ji Xiu withdrew his gaze, put down the knife in his hand, and breathed a sigh of relief.

During this day and night, with the help of his master Duan Chenzhou, he saw the tip of the iceberg in the city, and was still sighing that there were so many masters in the city.

The result came back suddenly.

Then he saw the top masters he had never seen in his life, two aura dragons and tigers!

This was something he had never dared to imagine before!
woohoo~~~
A cool breeze blew in from the dock, lifting the white and dark green hair at the temples.

"Ji Xiu, I'm leaving."

The tails of her sparkling phoenix eyes were dotted with silver scales, her white eyelashes blinked like cicada wings, her skirt moved slightly, and her jade fingers rested on the cold wall pillar, as if she was reluctant to leave.

"Sister Bai Shuo"

Ji Wei, who was standing on the side, saw this scene and bit her lips lightly, blinking her eyes.

In response, Bai Shuo smiled and waved his hand gently at her:
"Goodbye, Xiaowei. I hope that the next time I see you, I'll see a rising Taoist fairy."

Having lived here for a long time, with her status and vision, it was not difficult for Bai Shuo to see the secret hidden in Ji Wei just by looking at Fan Nansong's nervous look.

In fact.

A little girl from the countryside who knows nothing about Taoism, even if there is a Taoist master beside her who teaches her step by step.

But in just a few months, he was able to complete the ordination, practice Qigong, and become a Qigong practitioner. Moreover, his body was shining brightly, and his spirit seemed to contain some secrets.
Anyone who is not a fool can guess that there is a master behind her.

But both of them are not simple.

Regarding this point, Bai Shuo had long since become numb from his initial shock.

"this is for you."

Taking out a jade pendant that was stained with a few streaks of blood and had the iridescence of mother-of-pearl flowing through it, Bai Shuo took a few steps forward and slapped it into Ji Xiu's palm.

"This is.?"

Seeing that Bai Shuo was giving him something before leaving, Ji Xiu instinctively wanted to refuse.

Just kidding, Bai Shuo has been living with me for some time and has paid a lot of "rent".

This thing looks like a good thing, maybe it is a treasure of "spiritual quality".

When Xiu Fan was transforming into a dragon, she had almost sucked all her blood dry twice, eating and taking at the same time, making Ji Xiu feel a little embarrassed.

"Hey, are you turning your back on me?"

On one side, Qingtuan saw the jade pendant and his eyes widened.

And seeing that Ji Xiu was actually trying to refuse.
He jumped up excitedly and shouted:

"The 'Green Blood Dragon Core Pendant' is a dragon and phoenix pendant made with a strand of dragon blood. It is a spiritual treasure!"

"It can automatically fill the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. When the wearer is in a life-or-death crisis, even if a great man from the Dragon and Tiger Realm comes, he can withstand a blow."

"Not to mention that a dragon son or daughter can only create a pair with their essence and blood in their lifetime."

"Just saying, you once promised Shao Jun something, but now you want to deny it?"

"Hehe, Miss, look, I have now climbed up the social ladder and have been favored by the daughter of the Marquis of Beicang in Jiangyin Prefecture. I don't want to follow your path anymore."

"We have heard about Xiao Mingli's fame in his early years."

"I heard that he was just one step away from being listed on the 'Young Dragon Monument'. He is very famous in 'Cangdu' and its subordinate prefectures. His father is a marquis, and his mother's family is a wealthy family, very rich and powerful."

Ji Xiu's face darkened as he looked at the girl in green who was tickling him. It was obvious that she was avenging the insult she had suffered at the dock. She was very petty.

But, the Green Blood Dragon Core Pendant only has a male and female pair?
Looking at the jade pendant on Bai Shuo's waist, which is somewhat similar to the one on his palm.
Ji Xiu hesitated for a moment, but finally accepted it. Then he thought of all the stories that had happened between the two of them, and couldn't help feeling melancholy for a moment.

Then he held the pendant tightly, lowered his eyes, and looked at the dragon girl in front of him, whose appearance was as bright as the moonlight. After thinking for a while, he could not help but nod and lower his eyebrows, and said seriously:

"Mr. Bai."

"Ah."

The dragon girl lowered her eyes and hummed softly.

"In the future, if there is anything that requires my help, please do it."

"Ji Xiu, I will definitely come as promised."

"This pendant is proof."

He spoke softly, his tone strong.

When the woman in the light water-covered skirt heard these words, her eyes lit up for a moment, as if reflecting the aurora flowing in the dome.

Then, with a smile on her face, it was as if tiny starlight was spreading out:
"Let me use this pendant as proof." Bai Shuo took off the jade pendant from his narrow waist and tapped it lightly against the one he gave to Ji Xiu.

Then, the figure disappeared into the cold wind, leaving only the swaying of her skirt and the tinkling of the jade bell hanging on her snow-white neck. The green ball beside her gradually turned into a black dot and disappeared.

Ji Xiu raised his eyes and watched the scene quietly.

"elder brother?"

“Everyone has gone far away.”

"Sister Bai Shuo's background is not shallow, but our family is not bad either."

"If you try harder, I'll try harder too. Then we can go directly to their house and take her back. I don't think that old woman is any good either."

"I guess her life in that water palace wasn't easy either."

Ji Wei stood next to Ji Xiu, tugged at the corner of her clothes and pursed her lips.

At the same time, there was a bit of curiosity in his eyes:

"What does the 'Jiangyin Mansion' look like?"

"Master Fan said that I have now completed the 'Fu Qi Fasting' and have some self-protection power. It is time to go to the mansion to borrow resources and practice quickly. Then I can go to meet a senior from the sect and teach me the Taoist practice."

"Brother, do you think I should go?"

Ji Wei clenched her small hands, and her entire appearance changed almost every day.

Now, she is being taken care of by Ji Xiu. She has a slim figure and skin as white as porcelain. She has also practiced Taoism for such a long time that she is familiar with the Taoist scriptures.

If you take her alone, it would be hard to find such an outstanding young lady in the whole Jiangyin Prefecture.

Looking at the surging vitality overflowing from the whole person
Ji Xiu smiled:
"Go, why not go?"

“No one will stay in a small place forever.”

“I still have to go and see it after all”

"The higher, the more distant the scenery."

"Where are Cai Ling'er and Ye Ningzhi?"

Seeing that the two noble ladies were no longer in Ji’s house, Ji Xiu asked.

"Sister Cai was dragged away by her brother, and Sister Ye was also taken away by someone from the family when you were not around."

"Now, we should have arrived at 'Jiangyin Prefecture', right?"

Hear Ji Wei's response.

Ji Xiu nodded:

"They are the legitimate daughters of the great family. They were not at home during the New Year. It is normal for their family to send people to look for them."

Step into the mansion.

Watching the four seasons rotate, going around in circles, even Duan Chenzhou has gone, but Miss Jiang Li is still eating and drinking in his house, not going anywhere
At this moment, he was staring at the knife plaque he had carried back.

I couldn't help but be startled:
"Miss Jiang, do you recognize this plaque?"

"That's it."

Jiang Li lowered his eyebrows and asked:

"You plan to go to 'Jiangyin Prefecture' in a month?"

Ji Xiu nodded.

"Then I will go with you."

A look of nostalgia appeared on the woman's face.

"I haven't seen Daxuan's capital city for a long time."

"Just by chance."

"Jiangyin Prefecture"

"It just so happens that there are some 'industries' left over from those years that can be taken over."

Back then? Industry?
Hearing Jiang Li's blunt words, Ji Xiu held his breath.

He knew very well that the mysterious woman in front of him had a deep background and was related to the 'Sun and Moon Pavilion', which was terrifyingly powerful.

This time when she came back carrying the knife plaque from the ancestral temple, she actually recognized the title 'Chen Danding' on it!
Then,

The legacy left by these people.
Could it be that it was a century-old bank that still served her as its master?
Looking at the speculation in Ji Xiu's eyes.

Jiang Li smiled and said:

"After I woke up, I told you that if you bring me into my mansion one day, I will give you some benefits."

"Whatever you say, Ji Xiu."

"I watched you cultivate. I can give you what the Dragon Girl and the World Girl can give you."

The woman blinked, looked at the knife plaque, narrowed her brows, touched her chin, and uttered a long "hmm".
On impulse, he suddenly clapped his hands:
"correct."

"Would you like to consider it?"

"Be my disciple?"

Seeing that he had come back this time, Jiang Li was acting contrary to her usual behavior and became more gentle and humane to him. Ji Xiu was shocked:
"Are you serious?"

to be frank.

Although we know that Jiang Li has lived for at least dozens or hundreds of years, and must have been a Taoist ghost fairy before.

But when she usually interacted with me, she never acted like a senior.

This sudden sentence made Ji Xiu fall into deep thought.

to be frank,
It seems there is no harm in worshipping such a 'master'?
"Pfft."

Seeing Ji Xiu thinking seriously, Jiang Li smiled and waved her hand:

"Forget it, forget it. Even if I accept you, I can't teach you any skills. First, what I teach may not be much better than what you have learned. Second, I am full of taboos. If you learn them, you will be in trouble."

"Right now, I don't know where my own body is hidden. I am just a wandering ghost. My spirit and body cannot be harmoniously integrated. I can't even practice martial arts. How can I teach you?"

"But even if I don't accept you."

"After you enter the mansion, I will still give you the opportunity to be my 'disciple'."

I saw Jiang Li change the subject.

Ji Xiu knew that the other party had just acted on impulse, so he didn't bother him too much.

Simultaneously
I was also a little curious about the opportunity that Jiang Li mentioned.

If you enter the mansion.

Can we solve the mystery of this girl?

Open it up a little bit?
Ji Xiu thought to himself.

After the two groups of powerful figures from Shuijun Mansion and Beicanghou arrived and sent Bai Shuo away.

More than a month passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Zhao Jiu, the county magistrate of Anning County, had returned to Jiangyin Prefecture on a merchant ship more than half a month ago.

Before leaving, County Master Zhao looked at this small county surrounded by mountains and felt reluctant to leave, so he drank some wine with Ji Xiu.

When he was drunk, he said that after Ji Xiu entered the mansion, he would definitely go to the wine shop to find him, and take this brother who had shared hardships with him to experience the luxury of Jiangyin Prefecture.

He pays for all expenses!

Remaining time.

Ji Xiu practiced two secret martial arts hard to consolidate his leather refining skills.

He carries the sword plaque on his back every day, and suffers the pain of "the fire burning his clothes" every day. He swings the sword every time in the pain that is as if the fire is burning his soul and turning him into a mortal body!

They can clearly feel that their own sword intent is improving bit by bit, and it can also make their muscles and bones, which have been tempered to the extreme, continue to rise!

Just like the spirit and soul 'taking in air and fasting', they inhale and nourish their essence all the time, and continue to increase the potential of this 'secret treasure of the human body'.

I don't know, I will continue to grow like this.
Will it be as high as the sky one day?
Time flies by like a white horse.

Finally, spring comes.

Inside Ji's house, the willow branches sprouted new buds.

Ji Xiu spread his palms flat, forming a dragon-catching posture.
Suddenly, fallen leaves and dead branches gathered together!
A total of six types of martial arts and six kinds of essence are all gathered in it!

this day,
Ji Xiu's first secret martial art is 'Ye Long Xiang Shou'.
Completely, completed!
[Ye Longxiang’s head: (6000/6000)! ]

【Completed! 】

[Currently available advances for martial arts and magic: 1! ]
