Immortal Martial Arts Son-in-Law: Having Too Many Wives Isn't My Fault

His movement was like lighting a fuse.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen nurses stepped forward, expressing their willingness with either firm resolve or trepidation.

Madam Su looked at the person who stepped forward and nodded in satisfaction.

"Very good, there are indeed quite a few women in the household, but there are good ones and bad ones."

"Among the young women who have recently left their homes, there is one named Qingyue. She is the most talented junior in the clan, with a temperament as cold and aloof as ancient ice. Whoever catches her eye will not only win her heart, but also have the opportunity to comprehend the secret cultivation technique of my Su family, the Ice Heart Proud Cold Technique."

"There's also a widow whose parents died in battle for their clan. She's a natural beauty, with an innate allure and captivating charm. If one could become her lover, one would likely enjoy endless 'blessings' for the rest of their life in her gentle embrace."

"There is also a young girl with a childlike face and large breasts, like a wild horse, obsessed with swordsmanship. If any hero can tame her, not only will he be able to win the beauty's heart, but I, the lady, can also teach him swordsmanship."

...

With each word Madam Su spoke, the guards who stepped forward breathed more rapidly, their eyes gleaming even brighter.

Ice queen, alluring beauty, fiery babe...

Each one is filled with deadly allure, and behind each one lies a completely different opportunity!

Just as everyone was filled with excitement, Madam Su suddenly changed the subject.

"The capable rise, the weak fall. If you are strong enough and truly have extraordinary talent, and can make more than one Su family woman devoted to you, I... would be happy to see that happen. It wouldn't be a bad thing if you married me."

These words caused an instant uproar in the front hall.

The Su family is indeed very generous, actually allowing polygamy.

But on second thought, it makes sense.

After all, under the system of sons-in-law marrying into the wife's family, the woman's family needed to ensure the continuation of their bloodline, and marrying multiple wives would also increase the number of children they could produce...

The next day, just as dawn was breaking and the morning mist had not yet dissipated, the steward's voice rang out from the martial arts training ground in the backyard of the Su family.

"All guards willing to participate in the trial, assemble immediately at the training ground in the backyard! No delays!"

Chen Hao didn't sleep all night, not because he was nervous.

Instead, they were repeatedly analyzing their own situation.

With qi and blood depleted and internal organs ruptured, the cultivation of the second level of qi refinement is rendered useless.

The cultivation techniques and resources promised by Madam Su were his only way to break the deadlock.

Whether we can seize the opportunity today depends entirely on the test mentioned by the Su family.

Before long, Steward Wang Er stepped onto the high platform of the martial arts arena, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, and he cleared his throat.

"My guards, I have summoned you today to fulfill the promise Madam Su made yesterday. Today, I will teach you a body-refining technique called the 'Iron Rhinoceros Technique.' You must listen attentively and not be negligent!"

As soon as he finished speaking, heavy footsteps came from the side gate of the training ground.

A burly figure slowly walked over.

The man was nearly seven feet tall, with broad shoulders and a burly back, and a thick copper ring belt around his waist. Although he was not young, he exuded an aura of fierceness.

"Commander Zhang!"

Steward Wang Er quickly stood up to greet him, his attitude respectful.

Zhang Hu nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the dozen or so guards present.

"Madam Su asked me to come and pass on my skills. I'll only give you one morning. This Iron Rhinoceros Stance is a rare body-refining method that is most effective in strengthening muscles and bones, stabilizing qi and blood, and testing aptitude and perseverance."

"But if you don't practice well, it's all a waste of effort. Whether you can seize the opportunity depends entirely on your own fate."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression turned serious.

Some people looked excited, while others couldn't hide their worries.

Most of them are of mediocre talent, their cultivation has stagnated for many years, and they have long been depleted of qi and blood, so they are probably unable to withstand the consumption of body-refining techniques.

Chen Hao's heart skipped a beat, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes.

Iron Rhinoceros Skill, a true martial art!

This is not a remnant of the methods practiced in my early years.

It is a method that truly lays a solid foundation and nourishes qi and blood!

His internal organs were ruptured and his body was damaged.

What's most lacking is this kind of exercise that can nourish the body and solidify its foundation.

Even a basic body-refining technique was a glimmer of hope for him in his desperate situation.

"Look carefully!"

Zhang Hu said no more. He swayed and landed firmly on the spot. He formed a hand seal in front of his chest, and his blood and qi surged slowly around him. A deep, rumbling sound like a bull's roar could be faintly heard.

"The Iron Rhinoceros Stance emphasizes the word 'sinking.' Sink your shoulders, drop your elbows, stabilize your waist, and firmly plant your feet. You should be like a rhinoceros lying on the ground, completely still. Remember, your breathing should be even, your mind should be calm, and you must not be impatient!"

After the demonstration, Zhang Hu gestured for everyone to come forward and imitate him.

The dozen or so guards followed suit and set up stakes.

At first, everyone managed to keep up, standing tall and trying to keep up with Zhang Hu's pace.

But in less than half an incense stick's time, the differences became fully apparent.

Some people felt their legs go weak, were sweating profusely, had bulging veins on their foreheads, and were as pale as paper.

Some people swayed, staggered, and were breathing erratically.

Some people simply couldn't hold on any longer, let out a muffled groan, collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, and never got up again.

Seeing this, Zhang Hu remained expressionless and sternly rebuked him.

"Useless! You can't even endure this little hardship, yet you want to marry into the Su family, get spirit stones, and acquire cultivation techniques?"

"With your bodies, let alone having children, even having sex would be difficult."

More and more people are collapsing to the ground.

In the end, only a handful of people were still barely holding on, and Chen Hao was one of them.

He was also feeling unwell; his legs ached terribly, his knees trembled slightly, and the stinging pain in his internal organs was becoming increasingly pronounced.

But he gritted his teeth and persevered, constantly recalling the tips Zhang Hu had mentioned.

Relax your shoulders and elbows, stabilize your waist and feet, and strive to bring the disordered Qi and blood down to your Dantian.

Just when he was about to give up.

Suddenly, a notification sound rang out.

[Ding! 10 achievement points consumed, initiating the deduction of the Iron Rhinoceros Skill...]

[The Iron Rhinoceros Skill has been developed to the beginner level!]

In an instant, a profound realization flooded his mind, and many obscure and difficult parts of the original technique suddenly became clear.

A strange heat rose quietly from his dantian, and his legs, which had been sore and aching, instantly felt much lighter.

The stinging pain in my internal organs has also been relieved a lot.

His gaze grew increasingly firm, his posture increasingly upright, and his previously swaying figure gradually became as steady as Mount Tai, as if he had taken root and merged with the bluestone slab.

"what?"

Zhang Hu surveyed the area, his gaze suddenly stopping on Chen Hao. His cloudy old eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in them.

"Good lad, you've got some skills! This Iron Rhinoceros Stance looks simple, but it's actually the most demanding on one's will and energy. You're not young, your cultivation is broken, and your internal organs are damaged, yet you can still persist for so long. You're a promising talent, what a pity..."

Manager Wang Er, who was standing nearby, quickly stepped forward, bowed, and asked.

"Commander Zhang, what's the pity?"

"Unfortunately, he is too old, his foundation is too weak, his spiritual root is damaged, his internal organs are ruptured, and he has no spiritual medicine to nourish him, so his qi and blood are severely depleted."

"The art of body refinement emphasizes 'the poor study literature and the rich study martial arts.' The more intensely one practices the Iron Rhinoceros Technique, the more it consumes one's essence and blood. With his foundation, if he doesn't have a large amount of spirit stones and pills to sustain him, no matter how hard he practices, it will be difficult for him to make a significant breakthrough. At most, he will only reach the late stage of Qi Refining."

Upon hearing this, Steward Wang Er showed no regret, but instead revealed a hint of joy and smiled.

"Commander Zhang, you are overthinking it. The Su family is recruiting you guards to marry into their families. All you need is some martial arts skill to protect the women in the household and keep things under control. The most important thing is to have many children..."
