Sweeping Through Martial Arts: My Clone's Extraordinary Talent

Four days later, at dusk.

A stream outside Sanhe County.

"call……"

Shen Han ran and leaped back and forth in the forest like an eagle spreading its wings.

Martial Arts: Wind and Thunder Steps (Mastery)

During these four days, apart from the hour he spent practicing the Ancient Yang Skill while taking the Marrow Cleansing and Tendon Strengthening Water, the clone spent all his other time practicing the Wind and Thunder Steps.

The effect was also extremely remarkable, and the Wind and Thunder Steps were successfully mastered.

"I never imagined humans could be this fast!"

Shen Han muttered to himself.

Now, he can easily leap from one tree to another five zhang away without breaking a sweat. As for ordinary rivers, he can cross them with a single step, without the slightest difficulty.

"No wonder this secret manual is so valuable..."

He recalled the scene at the auction where the "Wind and Thunder Steps" manual was being snapped up.

Fortunately, I went to Stone Snake Town to attend the auction that time.

In fact, the Ancient Yang Skill, the Sky-Splitting Blade Technique, and the Wind and Thunder Steps are all closely related to the auction.

"Soon! Once I've mastered the Wind and Thunder Steps, my strength will reach a new level!"

He walked to the stream and lifted a huge rock weighing three thousand catties.

The next moment, he tossed the boulder into the air.

boom!

He then made his move directly, unleashing the perfected Furious Dragon Fist, meeting the attack head-on with his bare fists.

In an instant, gravel and debris flew everywhere.

The pebbles fell into the stream, splashing and creating a dense, misty spray.

"Great! You've gotten stronger too!"

Although no new cultivation method was found, his cultivation level was still slowly improving under the tempering of the Marrow Cleansing and Tendon Strengthening Water. After testing, his strength had increased to about 3,200 jin, which was no exaggeration to say that he could lift a thousand jin.

"There are only four portions of the Marrow Cleansing and Tendon Strengthening Water left. I need to find time to go to Wuzhuang Temple to buy more, but the problem is, one portion of the medicine costs ten taels of silver. How am I going to pay for it?"

Shen Han silently calculated.

Currently, he only has a dozen or so taels of silver on him, and with the daily food expenses of his clone, the shortfall is enormous.

In short, we have to find a way to make money!

He squatted by the stream, washed his face, and then casually caught some wild rabbits and pheasants to barbecue and fill his stomach.

After a hearty meal, he leisurely returned to the city.

"The weather is dry, so be careful with fire!"

Night had fallen.

The night watchman's figure came and went in a hurry. Recently, a series of incidents have occurred in Sanhe County, and no one wants to go out at night, not even the night watchman.

Huh?

Shen Han returned to the courtyard and was about to open the gate when he noticed something wriggling in the corner next to the side wall.

He's a person!

Although it was pitch black all around, his cultivation level of tendon refinement allowed him to see clearly even in the dark, and he immediately recognized that it was a young man.

Moreover, the man appeared to be seriously injured.

"Young Master Lin!"

Taking a few more steps closer, Shen Han was so shocked when he saw the person's face that he couldn't close his mouth.

This person was none other than the missing Lin Tanzhi!

The Fukang Escort Agency was wiped out four days ago, and Lin Tanzhi's body was the only one missing. I never expected it to appear here tonight!

Shen Han immediately checked Lin Tanzhi's breathing.

"He's still breathing, let's take him back first..."

He made a quick decision, carrying Lin Tanzhi into the courtyard and laying him out in an empty room.

Snapped!

Light the oil lamp.

Shen Han carefully observed under the light and saw that Lin Tanzhi was covered in wounds and blood, and his face was so white that it was no different from that of a corpse.

He quickly took out silver needles, aimed at Lin Tanzhi's Baihui acupoint, and inserted them. After experiencing the predicament of not having silver needles several times, he had already placed silver needles in the bronze mirror.

Lin Tanzhi did not move.

If it weren't for his faint breath, Lin Tanzhi would have been a complete corpse at this moment.

"This is not good!"

After removing the silver needles, Shen Han frowned.

He had made a clear diagnosis: Lin Tanzhi had lost far too much blood, and his internal organs had suffered extremely serious internal injuries from the powerful palm strike, putting him at risk of dying at any moment.

With his superb medical skills, he could treat a dying person with medicine, but it was already late at night, and by the time he went out to buy medicine and made the round trip, Lin Tanzhi's body would have long been cold.

"Oh right, I have a Returning Cloud Pill!"

Shen Han immediately took out a porcelain bottle from the bronze mirror, poured out a dark green Guiyun Pill, pried open Lin Tanzhi's mouth, and used his internal energy to send the Guiyun Pill into his stomach.

This Guiyun Pill has the power to bring the dead back to life.

However, Guiyun Pill is a forbidden medicine of the imperial court, which can only be used by the royal family. It was found on Cao Lin's body more than half a month ago after Shen Han killed Cao Lin, the young leader of the Qingyi Gang, with a single blow.

Soon, the Guiyun Pill took effect.

Lin Tanzhi's Qi and blood were visibly changing!

Shen Han took his pulse again, and a miracle happened: his vitality had clearly rebounded, meaning he could hold on for a few more days without any problems.

"fortunately……"

Shen Han breathed a sigh of relief and went out under the cover of night.

He returned shortly afterward, carrying a large bag of medicinal herbs for treating injuries.

Decoction, feeding, acupuncture, passing gas.

After a series of procedures, Lin Tanzhi's skin gradually began to turn rosy.

"Ahem!"

More than an hour later, Lin Tanzhi finally opened his eyes.

"Young Master Lin, are you alright?"

As Shen Han spoke, he inserted a needle into the Huagai acupoint on the chest to soothe the meridians.

Lin Tanzhi trembled and said, "I...I'm still alive?"

Shen Han laughed and said, "If you meet me, you'll have a hard time dying."

"Thank you so much, Physician Shen, for saving my life..."

As he spoke, Lin Tanzhi was about to sit up and bow.

"You're too kind, Young Master Lin. Your injuries are too severe; please don't get too excited."

"Um……"

Another half hour passed, and Lin Tanzhi regained sensation in his limbs and was able to move them.

Two streams of tears rolled down his cheeks.

Shen Han naturally understood what he was thinking and handed him a piece of silk cloth.

Lin Tanzhi wiped away his tears and said, "Doctor Shen, I'm so sorry, but I'm afraid I can't afford the medical expenses this time."

"It's alright."

"My Fukang Escort Agency was wiped out, and I was beaten to this state. I want revenge!"

"Young Master Lin, who exactly are they?"

"Blood Transformation Temple!"

Lin Tanzhi clenched his fists, his eyes blazing with fury, and gritted his teeth as he uttered those three words.

The culprit really is Huaxue Temple!

Shen Han thought to himself that it was not beyond his previous predictions.

"I...cough cough!"

Lin Tanzhi was so angry that he wanted to say more, but he couldn't stop coughing.

Shen Han hurriedly said, "Don't rush into revenge. Health is the foundation of everything. Young Master Lin, please rest well at my house first, and we can discuss everything in due course."

"Oh well……"

"It's getting late, let's get some rest."

Shen Han left the room.

The next morning, Lin Tanzhi was much better. Shen Han explained to him in detail how to take the medicine, and then he went to the clinic to work.

He returned to the courtyard in the evening.

An unexpected incident occurred: Lin Tanzhi left without saying goodbye, leaving only a long letter on the table.

Shen Han read the letter word by word.

At the end of the letter, Lin Tanzhi said resolutely that he would go to Erxianqiao, five miles west of the county town, to seek revenge on the monks of Huaxue Temple.

"What a damn hot-blooded young man..."

Shen Han found it both infuriating and amusing.

Alone and still recovering from serious injuries, how can he take revenge?

"Fine, let's go take a look..."

Shen Han thought for a moment, then stepped out of the county town through the west gate.

After leaving the city, he took out a human skin mask from the bronze mirror, put it on, and transformed into the Ugly Man.

After walking a few steps, three paths appeared ahead.

Hey, which way to Erxian Bridge?
