In Douluo Continent, Tang San raids my base right from the start.

Chapter 61 That's the promise of marriage?

"Then should I repay him with my body?" Zhu Wu thought to himself.

He didn't mind working as a dragon knight for the aloof and beautiful dragon, Zi Ji. Love was no longer his priority. He said, however, "Go there and study hard; teaching her diligently when you return will be your way of repaying her."

"Furthermore, I don't want to see situations like today again."

"Hmm." Murasaki gave a soft "hmm," then remained silent.

A quarter of an hour later, seeing that the frost on Zi Ji's body had completely dissipated and her breathing had stabilized, Zhu Wu withdrew his hand and said, "You don't need to attend today's impromptu gathering. Stay here and recuperate. We'll meet again on the day you're ready to say goodbye."

After saying that, it turned around, flapped its wings, and flew away.

Zi Ji gazed intently, watching silently as Zhu Wu disappeared from sight.

From childhood to adulthood, no one had ever scolded her like this before, not even the ferocious beasts like Di Tian.

This is a strong and decisive man, yet he harbors kindness in his heart. In addition to being mature, steady, and shrewd, he also has a deeper understanding of Zhu Wu.

On the other side, Zhu Wu picked some mountain delicacies along the way and carried them straight back to his residence.

"Where is Zi Ji?" Xiong Jun asked when he saw Zhu Wu return alone.

"She's absorbing the immortal herbs and can't come out," Zhu Wu replied. "Besides, I've decided to send Zi Ji to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well in a few days. The special environment there suppresses the cold poison and helps her absorb the medicinal power, which will be very beneficial to her. In addition, I intend to have her study under the Water Dragon King for a period of time. When she returns with her skills, she might also be of help to us."

"I have already asked her to pass on a message to the Fire Dragon King and ask him to impart some cultivation insights as well."

"This is indeed a great opportunity for Zi Ji, and for us as well," Di Tian nodded.

"Zhu Wu, you've thought of everything." The Crimson King nodded with a smile.

If Ziji could learn something from the Fire Dragon King and bring it back to pass on to him, it would definitely be of great help to him.

Zhu Wu smiled. "Alright, now that everyone's here, let's have a good meal today. As for Zi Ji, we'll have a proper get-together when she leaves, as a farewell. The Dragon Kings' skills aren't so easy to learn; this trip will probably take a long time."

So Zhu Wu transformed into a chef and began preparing a barbecue feast.

In the evening, under the setting sun, Zhu Wu packed up some grilled fish and meat and asked Bi Ji to deliver it to Zi Ji before everyone dispersed.

After packing his things and chatting with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion for a while to aid digestion, Zhu Wu began practicing the Longevity Technique.

On the other side, Brigitte handed the food to Murasaki and stayed behind to start a chat with her best friend.

"Ziji, what do you think of Zhu Wu?" Biji asked casually during their conversation.

"It's alright." Zi Ji replied somewhat perfunctorily, remembering that she had just been scolded by Zhu Wu earlier that day.

Biji sighed, "Speaking of which, I have to thank Zhu Wu. Since Zhu Wu came, Brother Tian has been smiling much more. I can see it's because the burden on his shoulders has lightened. Of course, it's also because Zhu Wu has brought hope to the people."

"Immortal Herb," ​​Zi Ji nodded gently, recalling the benefits Zhu Wu had brought her, and then she listened to the Water Dragon King's teachings.

"I really hope things can continue to go this smoothly," Brigitte sighed.

"."

Two days later, after a dinner party and farewell, Zi Ji flew into the mist under everyone's watchful eyes.

The next day, Zhu Wu arrived at the Red King's territory with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to begin a new round of cultivation.

A few days later, the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire appeared.

"He sent me." Upon seeing the Demon King, Zi Ji gave a brief greeting and plunged into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

"!!?" Dugu Bo was taken aback and turned to look at the Demon King. "Elder Tree, who is this?"

"The Dragon Head's sworn sister is no less powerful than me," the Demon King replied. "She has a cold and aloof personality, so just don't provoke her."

She looks so young and beautiful, but I never expected her to be such a powerful figure. I can't afford to mess with her. Dugu Bo thought to himself.

Therefore, besides the leader, there are many super strong individuals who have advanced beyond their realm in the nine branches of the Beast Sect.

That's pretty awesome!

Time flies, and March has passed in the blink of an eye.

"Crimson Lotus Calamity!" Zhu Wu transformed into a giant dragon in his Martial Soul Possession state and flew above the canyon. The flame energy in his body poured out, surging like a torrent along his meridians towards his throat. During the process, it was constantly compressed, changing from red to orange and then to white.

Then, the giant mouth suddenly opened, and pale white flames surged out of its mouth in a straight line, shooting for nearly 10 meters before dissipating. The white turned red, transforming into a raging inferno that spread across the valley, carrying a terrifying impact like a tidal wave sweeping across the land.

A short while later, Zhu Wu, feeling his throat becoming increasingly hot, stopped supplying soul power and then closed his mouth.

The powerful breath attack transformed into a major move. Seeing the raging flames erupting below, Zhu Wu was quite satisfied. The principle behind this move was actually very simple: it involved compressing energy and unleashing it in a concentrated burst. The more forcefully the energy was compressed, the greater the power. It required considerable control over fire-attribute energy.

The flames turning from red to white is what he can do now.

And so, he also realized the skill idea he originally proposed for the Crimson King. One is Crimson Lotus Flame Burst, which compresses fire attribute energy at a high intensity to create a pale white fireball. It can be controlled by mental power to move and explode, just like the Fire Dance Radiant Sun technique used by Fire Dance in the original work.

The second is a high-temperature ray, the effect of which can be seen from the name. It compresses flames and releases them in the form of a fire line.

All I can say is that they are all quite powerful.

The only problem is that the high-temperature rays he released were not fine enough, and the distance was only a few tens of meters.

Unfortunately, with his current mental strength and physical power, this is the extent he can control it. Even the Crimson Lotus Flame Burst has its limits.

If you force yourself to do something beyond your control, you could easily lose control and hurt yourself.

"So, it's time to switch projects." Having done his best so far, Zhu Wu decided to go and learn from Xiong Jun next.

So, after resting for two days, he took his little fangirl, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and headed to the territory of the Bear King, to the iron stone wall they had met before.

"My training method is very simple." Xiong Jun nodded slightly at the claw marks on the stone wall.

"See the claw marks above?"

"When I first started practicing this method, my claws would get a little sore and my arms would go numb after a while. To avoid this, I came up with a solution to concentrate my soul power in my arms and claws as much as possible, protecting them while increasing my arm strength and claw attack power."

"I believe that as long as my arm strength is high enough, my claw attack power is strong enough, and my attack is fast enough, cutting stone will be as easy as cutting mud, and naturally it won't hurt."

"And the result, naturally, was success. The Dark Gold Terror Claw naturally took another step forward, and I named it the Sky-Tearing Claw!" As he said this, he raised his chin, looking quite arrogant. "After that, I went to fight Di Tian. Although I lost, I still managed to scratch him. During this time, I have been cultivating in the same way. I believe that sooner or later, my Sky-Tearing Claw will take another step forward."

"Unfortunately, this iron wall is still a bit too weak for me right now. It would be better if it were a bit harder."

"I see. 'Tearing Heaven Claw,' your name is clearly aimed at Di Tian." Zhu Wu nodded slightly, then, as if realizing something, asked:

"Bear, has this training method also significantly improved your physical strength?"

"Of course," Xiong Jun nodded.

"While controlling the soul power to gather in my arm, I was also compressing the soul power. As I kept compressing and practicing, over time, the soul power in my body became more and more refined and condensed, which in turn affected my physical body."

"My muscles have become more and more resilient, which has greatly enhanced my physical strength and defense."
