Practice starts with skill points.

Chapter 130 Night Attack
The group of people only walked on the main road and tried to avoid some remote paths. There was no trouble. However, sometimes small paths are unavoidable. On a long road, there are always some sparsely populated paths.

As night fell, the caravan still failed to reach the post station before dark and had to set up camp in the wild.

A group of soldiers were busy setting up tents, but Zhong Lin did not get off the carriage and continued to open up the meridians and acupuncture points.

"Silk Power" is indeed helpful for breaking acupuncture points. Normal people open meridians and break acupuncture points by continuously impacting the acupuncture points with their powerful internal energy, wearing them away bit by bit until the acupuncture points are broken open and the meridians are unblocked.

The "Silk Power" uses a clever way to break the force. First, a crack is opened in the acupuncture point, and then it is used as the source to continuously flush it until it is completely broken.

The speed was unknown how many times faster. In just one day, Zhong Lin broke through the three acupoints of Zhongfu, Yunmen and Tianfu. Even Zhong Lin was amazed by the efficiency and was extremely excited.

"Mr. Zhong, the tent is ready."

A respectful voice came from outside the carriage, and Zhong Lin slowly opened his eyes, pushed aside the door curtain and got off the carriage.

Looking around, there is a forest not far away. As the saying goes, don't chase a desperate enemy and don't enter a forest. The tent is located not far from the forest, and the surrounding view is wide. It is impossible to launch a sneak attack.

Piles of dry firewood were piled up, not only for lighting, but also to deter large wild beasts.

After setting up the tents, some people went out hunting while others stayed in front of the tents.

Just before the sun set, all the soldiers returned with their prey.

The leading man walked towards Zhong Lin, bowed and said, "Greetings, Master Zhong."

"No need to be polite, General."

The man was startled, stroking his beard and asking doubtfully, "Is it so obvious?"

Zhong Lin smiled without saying anything. As soon as he came into contact with this team, Zhong Lin could tell that these people must be from the military. The unique style of that army was too distinctive.

"Excuse me, General, what is your name?" Zhong Lin said with a smile.

"My surname is Niu, and my name is Niu Dali." said the general.

Zhong Lin raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "General, the name... is quite straightforward."

Niu Dali's face flushed, and he smiled awkwardly, "Let Master Zhong know that I have no problem taking these soldiers to deal with some scoundrels, but I'm afraid of some martial arts masters. If a strong man really attacks, I hope Master Zhong can protect the princess."

Zhong Lin nodded and said, "Of course it is. I came down the mountain on the orders of my senior master, so naturally I must do my best. Moreover, Her Royal Highness the Princess is my junior sister, so General Niu can rest assured."

"Thank you, Master Zhong."

"Ok!"

Led by Niu Dali, Zhong Lin walked towards the tent specially prepared for him. Next to it was Jiang Yuan's tent. The two tents were very close to each other, and any slight sound could be heard.

The purpose of putting two tents together is self-evident.

Zhong Lin was too lazy to pay attention. After dinner, he turned around and went into the tent to continue meditating and practicing.

Feeling his martial arts skills improving bit by bit, the satisfaction of strength made Zhong Lin forget everything else and he had no interest in caring about other things.

Jiang Yuan was also very self-aware and did not continue to try to win over Zhong Lin. It seemed that he was really afraid that the Sect Master would chop him down.

Time passed slowly, and I spent half a month on the road.

Zhong Lin has been traveling every day for the past half month, and he basically does not use the carriage except for the necessary eating, drinking, and defecation.

The effect is also obvious. The twenty-nine acupoints of the three Yin meridians of the hand in the first level of Tongmai Realm have been fully opened. Not only has the internal energy in the Dantian been condensed by a full ten percent, but as the three Yin meridians of the hand are opened, Zhong Lin can clearly feel that when he uses the Lingxi Sword Finger again, both the speed of the internal energy circulation and its power are doubled.

In half a month, the convoy had already left the mountains where Jianding Sect was located, and even crossed four counties in succession.

That night, Zhong Lin, who was meditating, suddenly opened his eyes. At four o'clock in the morning, the tent was completely silent, with only the crackling of the blazing firewood as the sound.

His eyes swept towards the distant darkness, and he murmured softly, "I thought it was just an easy task, but it seems I can't sit still."

With a sneer on his lips, he reached out and grabbed the ebony bow beside him. He suddenly stood up, opened the tent, stepped out, looked at the endless darkness, bent his bow and shot an arrow, shooting into the endless darkness with lightning speed.

"what!"

"what!"

Two screams broke the tranquility of the night, killing two birds with one stone.

The sudden screams woke up these veteran soldiers. The tents were opened instantly and a group of soldiers hurried out of the tents with swords in hand.

"There's an enemy attack, everyone take cover."

Niu Dali looked solemn and shouted loudly to the soldiers to get ready.

Zhong Lin raised the bow in his hand again, and put three arrows directly on the bowstring. Along with the sharp sound of breaking through the air, several screams were heard in the distance.

The intruder who originally wanted to launch a sneak attack had his plan disrupted by Zhong Lin's arrow, exposing his position. He had no choice but to turn to a strong attack.

"Fire arrows."

A roar was heard in the darkness, and the next moment the sound of an arrow cutting through the air was heard.

"Sword and shield soldiers, form a formation."

Niu Dali snorted coldly and gave an order. A large number of soldiers quickly ran forward, pulled out shields from their backs, and held them in front of them, stacking them up to form a formation.

The soldiers were protected by shields all over their bodies, all blind spots were blocked, and they formed a battle formation.

"Jingle, clang, clang."

All the arrows hit the shields, and the sound of steel colliding continued, but no one was injured or killed.

There is no chance to take advantage of the darkness, the only option is to fight with real weapons.

The man in the darkness was decisive and said directly: "Charge and kill, leaving no one alive."

The shouts and cries of killing shook the earth, and there was no telling how many people were shouting in the darkness. If they were ordinary soldiers, they would have been surrounded by enemies and had lost their minds.

Unfortunately, these are elite soldiers who have fought in many battles and will not fall for that.

Zhong Lin stood aside with a cold look, listening to the chaotic footsteps in the jungle. There were probably hundreds of people, at least more than the number of people in the convoy.

Niu Dali waved his right hand, and soldiers beside him immediately poured kerosene on the dry firewood. The pile of wood immediately caught fire with a bang, and a raging fire began to burn. Piles of flames lit up around it, like several large light bulbs of hundreds of watts, illuminating the surroundings, making it impossible to take advantage of the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

Seeing this, Zhong Lin secretly praised Niu Dali for his reliability. It turned out that no one who could reach the position of general was a fool.

"Senior brother."

Jiang Yuan also walked out of the tent at this time, stood beside Zhong Lin, and looked at the attackers in front of him with a very ugly expression.

"know?"

Jiang Yuan nodded with a grim expression.

"Although they are all wearing black and masked, there is no panic in their charge. They are well coordinated. Niu Dali's men are all veterans of many battles and can fight them without being at a disadvantage. These people are also members of the army. I think one of my brothers must have taken action."
