evil tycoon

ten years??

Han Ping'an was completely dumbfounded.

He only broke through to the Bone Refinement stage, how could his skill level increase so much all at once?

Even after the Yin Essence Blood Jade was completely absorbed, it only increased in size over six years.

and many more! !

Han Ping'an frowned, realizing the reason.

It's probably best to combine Yin Essence Blood Jade with martial arts training.

The former changes one's constitution and refines the body by gathering yin essence.

The latter completely sheds its weak foundation.

Having just entered the bone-refining stage, it can be described as a complete transformation in a certain sense.

It's like a qualitative change resulting from quantitative accumulation.

Its own essence has broken through the original level.

In this case, a ten-year increase in lifespan is not surprising.

Bone Refining Warriors are considered elite forces even within gangs like the Black Tiger Hall and the Snake Hand Gang.

Even among the younger generation of prominent families, the pillars of society are still in their positions.

Putting aside all the unexpected events in a person's life, gaining ten years in lifespan is really nothing special.

"Man only has a lifespan of forty-six years. Forty-six is ​​the prime of life, not enough, far from enough."

After thinking it through, Han Pingan slowly shook his head, realizing that the task ahead was arduous and the road ahead was long.

This lifespan is still too short. After transmigrating once, how could one not live for hundreds or thousands of years?

Even immortality.

What's a mere forty-six?

Furthermore, he was not surprised by the lifespan granted by the Life Cauldron.

It's clear that he gradually improved from his initial foundation.

"After breaking through to the Bone Refinement stage, the subsequent cultivation will require a significant financial investment."

  

Han Ping'an went into the house and took out all his money.

There are still more than forty taels left.

It was originally sixty or seventy taels.

During this time, he also pretended to be the person who sold pine needles and incense and came back again, and took more than fifty taels from his own shop, bringing the total to more than one hundred taels, which he has now spent more than forty taels.

One needs medicine to cultivate oneself.

There are also three bloodwing beetles.

Especially these three bloodwing beetles.

It's really too expensive to keep them.

The jars of beast blood were like a bottomless pit.

Fortunately, the three bloodwing insects have greatly improved, and their threat to Bone Refining is no longer a problem.

The money wasn't wasted.

"We should go buy some better medicine."

Han Ping'an thought for a moment, then stuffed all the money into his pocket and left the room.

"Ming-ge?"

The shouts were followed by no response from inside the shop.

"Sigh, he's gone out again."

Han Ping'an scratched his head helplessly and obediently sat down in front.

Gu Ming is a restless person.

They keep running outside.

The reasons given for going out are mostly things like "finding customers".

However, during these four years, the original owner was physically weak and powerless, so he rarely went out. Apart from managing the shop and keeping accounts, he would at most go to the front street to buy some things.

That's why I don't know anything about "Old Biaozi" and others on Zhengqi Street.

Gu Ping'an and his nephew clearly didn't want these things to bother the original owner, so they didn't say much.

But now that their cultivation has improved and they know more, the fact that Gu Ping'an and his nephew run this shop in such a mysterious way is clearly not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Han Ping'an also understood that the uncle and nephew didn't tell him because it was for his own good.

He had no intention of getting to the bottom of it.

I will tell him when the time is right.

However, as his cultivation level increases, the power of the Yin Essence Blood Jade is exhausted, and the requirements for resources, medicines, and martial arts techniques will become even higher.

"There's nothing to hide about my cultivation level."

"I'll have to ask Ming for advice when he gets back."

He still had no idea what medicine to buy next.

Given his physique, being of the Yin attribute and possessing hidden evil energy would be ideal.

Instead of figuring it out on your own, it's better to get guidance from Gu Ming or even Gu Ping'an.

There might even be something in the shop that he doesn't know about but that would be suitable for him.

"This jade has been polished until it's perfectly smooth and flawless; it would be a shame to throw it away."

Han Ping'an took out the Yin Essence Blood Jade from his bosom, which had been completely absorbed. Now, the blood patterns on the surface of the blood jade were dim, and the blue ink was like a mist that was about to dissipate.

It felt only slightly cool to the touch.

However, its appearance has improved significantly.

He devised it all by talking, night after night.

Judging by its color and appearance, it could easily fetch two or three ounces outside.

After thinking for a while, Han Ping'an had an idea.

Swish!

Three bloodwinged beetles appeared out of nowhere.

The wings, mouthparts, and blood patterns on the body of the bloodwing beetle today are quite different. They are sharp and refined. Just by staring at them, the edges of the wings and mouthparts give people a sense of sharpness.

"eat."

Han Ping'an presented the blood jade to the blood-winged insect, his eyes filled with curiosity.

Three bloodwing beetles landed on the surface of the blood jade and inserted their mouthparts into it.

Click click!

With a cracking sound, the surface of the blood jade was covered with cracks.

Then, the bluish-black color and the faint blood patterns on it disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In a very short moment.

The entire piece of blood jade was turned into a dull and worthless piece of jade.

Han Ping'an looked surprised.

They can actually eat a lot.

However, what it was consuming was clearly the residual power of the Blood Jade itself.

It's better than wasting it; it's a way of making use of waste.

Sensing the slight improvement of the three bloodwing insects, he grabbed the blood jade, squeezed it slightly, and it turned into ashes and scattered.

Suddenly, I heard faint footsteps, which quickly became clearer.

Ming is back.

Han Ping'an flicked his sleeve, and the Bloodwing Insect disappeared into the Life Cauldron.

Looking up, Gu Ming hummed a little tune as he walked into the shop.

"Peace and safety."

"Ming-ge, you're back just in time."

Han Ping'an stood up.

"Huh? What happened?" Gu Ming paused, looking at Han Ping'an with suspicion.

"Brother Ming, I've refined my bones." Han Ping'an smiled slightly.

"Who has refined their bones?" Gu Ming was a little confused.

"I."

"you?"

Gu Ming whirled around, scrutinizing him from head to toe, and strode over, his pupils dilating sharply: "You said you've refined your bones? Reached the Bone Refining Realm?"

"Um."

Han Ping'an was both amused and exasperated. Surely a dignified Bone Refining cultivator couldn't not hear clearly?

Gu Ming said helplessly, "I don't believe it, stop joking."

Swish!

Han Ping'an suddenly made a move, leaping out of the counter and kicking hard with both feet together.

"Goodness."

Gu Ming's expression changed slightly. As he retreated, he raised his hand and threw a punch.

Bang!

The force landed on his fist, and the astonishment on Gu Ming's face froze instantly.

"grass."

"You've really refined your bones?"

Han Ping'an didn't say a word. As soon as he landed, he used both hands to strike out. A cold wind blew, and although the killing aura was weak, it was surprisingly powerful under the combined strength of his bone-refining technique and the powerful yin energy.

The continuous palm strikes were like a tidal wave, powerful and heavy.

Gu Ming quickly parried.

Bang bang bang! !

Ten breaths later.

Han Ping'an retreated in a sorry state.

In contrast, Gu Ming looked relaxed and didn't use his full strength at all.

The gap between the initial stage of Bone Refinement and the later stage is too large.

"Ming-ge is amazing."

"Damn, it's only been a little over a month, how did you train like that?" Gu Ming really believed it, but he was full of questions.

After just over a month, the foundation is still extremely poor.

At first, he thought that refining blood wouldn't be that fast.

How did it become bone refining?

Moreover, just now when they made their move, he could feel that Han Ping'an's power was greater than that of an ordinary early-stage Bone Refinement cultivator.

Especially that chilling power emanating from him was extremely unsettling.

Before Han Ping'an could respond, Gu Ming frowned deeply: "Ping'an, there's something wrong with your power."

Han Ping'an nodded slightly.

Since there was no intention to conceal their cultivation level, the Yin energy naturally could not be hidden either.

"Ming-ge, I practice Yin energy."

As he spoke, Han Ping'an opened his palm.

hum!

A cloud of black mist surged out, emanating an unsettling, chilling aura.

The shop seemed to have become gloomy.

If you replaced all the shelves in the room with coffins, it would look perfectly natural.

Gu Ming's expression was a mix of crying and laughing: "No, we've gone astray."

"He exudes an eerie aura; if he were to go out and be noticed, he would definitely be mistaken for a heretic."

"If your uncle finds out, he'll beat me to death."

Old Gu asked him to look after Han Ping'an.

The results of it?

From having a poor foundation, I've been able to improve my physical condition – what a wonderful thing!

But he exudes a sinister aura, which looks bad no matter how you look at it.

How am I going to find a wife in the future?

Cold snow?
