Surviving in the chaos of battle, I'm grinding for proficiency.

Li Chuan grinned:

"Old man, you didn't expect I could use leg techniques, did you?"

He then bent down and groped He Chen's body for a while.

By the moonlight, Li Chuan could see the two items in his hands.

A single white jade bottle, and a packet of dragon grass.

Carrying the bag of fire dragon grass, Li Chuan felt a sense of joy, as if he had found something he had lost.

"That old geezer even said he was going to burn the fire dragon grass. It seems he's ultimately unwilling to part with six taels of silver."

"However..." Li Chuan chuckled, "If you knew that I would eventually get it, you would probably regret not burning it."

He tucked the fire dragon grass into his robes and then raised the white jade bottle.

With a pop, Li Chuan opened the stopper of the white jade bottle.

Looking inside, they found a round, plump pill.

Its color is slightly bluish, and its aura carries a rich sense of vitality.

Just by taking a sniff, Li Chuan felt his tired body regain some vitality.

"This is... a Qi-Nourishing Pill?"

Li Chuan raised an eyebrow.

Peiyuan Dan is a good thing.

Each piece costs five taels of silver and is exclusively for use by those at the peak of the Transformation Realm.

After all, once one breaks through to the Transformation Realm, the intermingling of light and dark energy leads to a significant increase in physical strength.

The Blood-Strengthening Pills that were previously sufficient to meet demand are now proving somewhat inadequate.

Having obtained this Qi-Nourishing Pill is just what he needs to meet for his upcoming martial arts training.

Li Chuan counted the numbers:

"Twenty-seven pieces, that should last me a while!"

Converted to silver, this amounted to a full 135 taels.

That's no small sum!

His monthly salary was only sixty taels of silver, so one hundred and thirty-five taels could last him for more than two months.

Thinking of this, Li Chuan's gaze towards He Chen softened.

Sending both Fire Dragon Grass and Qi-Nourishing Pills, He Chen's mortal character is far better than his human character.

Next, Li Chuan completely disfigured He Chen's body, erasing all traces of Tongbei Fist and Lei Ying Kick.

Then, they quickly dug a deep pit and buried He Chen's body underneath.

The pit for burying the body must be deep enough.

If it's just a shallow layer, the smell will easily dissipate.

He didn't know these techniques before.

It was only through accumulation over time that I gradually came to understand.

If someone were watching nearby, they would definitely notice.

Li Chuan's entire process was incredibly smooth and seamless.

It's obvious that they are very skilled.

After finishing the treatment, Li Chuan checked it again.

After making sure there were no mishaps, he cautiously scanned his surroundings before suddenly disappearing into the distance.

……

After returning to Songfeng Martial Arts School, Li Chuan slept for several hours.

He only got up when the rooster crowed.

He Chen may be old, but he is still incredibly strong.

If I only had one perfect Tongbei Quan (a style of Chinese martial arts), I probably wouldn't be his match.

Fighting against such a master is very taxing on one's energy, and one must replenish it through sleep.

"The ancients said that sleep has a calming effect on the soul, and this is indeed true."

Li Chuan wholeheartedly agreed with this statement.

In my past life, I often stayed up late working to achieve results.

I haven't rested well, I feel lightheaded and completely out of sorts.

Even though he is now a master of internal energy, his physical abilities are worlds apart from those of ordinary people.

But sleep is still an indispensable part of daily life.

After having breakfast, Li Chuan began to plan for the future.

"Killing He Chen used up almost all of my trump cards."

"This also shows that my strength is still somewhat lacking when facing county magistrates and others who are stronger than He Chen."

"Even if He Chen were twenty years younger, the outcome would be much more predictable."

"Not strong enough!"

Li Chuan knew perfectly well that he needed to expand his arsenal.

"The fully mastered Thunder Shadow Kick and Jade Skin Skill are very powerful when using internal energy."

"But for me now, it seems rather ordinary."

After thinking it through, Li Chuan set his sights on perfecting the Thunder Shadow Kick and Jade Skin Skill during this period.

The Transformation Realm has reached its limit. To break through to the Embracing Elixir Realm, one must go to the Three Primal Mansion to obtain true skill.

"Then let's hone our playing style to its absolute limit."

Li Chuan made up his mind and immediately took action.

First, grind the dragon grass and ice flower together to make a paste.

After applying the ointment to his legs, he swallowed a Peiyuan Pill to replenish his qi and blood.

Then, he began to practice the Thunder Shadow Kick.

There's a saying in the martial arts world.

The fist is like two doors, but the legs are what truly strike.

Given equal skill levels, leg techniques are more lethal than fist techniques.

The perfected Raikage Kick will undoubtedly be a crucial trump card for killing the county magistrate in the future!

Li Chuan gathered his scattered thoughts and focused all his attention on every detail of the leg movement.

Twist your waist.

The entire leg is like a soft whip, and the thigh kicks out very slowly.

But when all the power and speed are concentrated in the calf, it becomes as fast as lightning!

"Bang!"

The dull, resounding impacts continued.

……

One hour later.

Li Chuan summoned the Hunyuan Jade Scroll.

[Skill: Lightning Shadow Kick (Mastery)]

[Proficiency: 408/3000]

Li Chuan was somewhat surprised.

After consuming the Qi-Nourishing Pill, his proficiency improved at a speed that exceeded his expectations.

If this pace continues, it will only take a little over two months to perfect the Raikage's Leg technique.

This is undoubtedly an extremely high speed.

Even Liang Xingzhou, who is known for his formidable fighting skills, said that it took him a year to finally master Tongbei Quan.

of course.

"The premise is that there's always a supply of Qi-Nourishing Pills to take..." Li Chuan said with a wry smile.

One Qi-Nourishing Pill is enough for a day.

But there are thirty days in a month, which means there are thirty coins.

One hundred and fifty taels of silver!

"Let's talk about the money later; there's no rush for now."

Li Chuan shook his head, rested, and then began practicing the Jade Skin Kung Fu.

……

Time passed day by day.

He Chen, however, seemed to have vanished without a trace, leaving no word of him.

This is a veteran master of internal energy transformation!

As the incident escalated, it caused widespread panic.

Especially the disciples of Tianyi Martial Arts School.

They had just lost their senior disciple and hadn't even had time to grieve.

I never imagined that in just a few days, even the owner of the museum would be gone!

孽 孽!

Previously, the disciples of Tianyi Martial Arts School would hold their heads high when they went out, but now they are even embarrassed to reveal their sect.

Many disciples and instructors began to have their minds wandering.

However, He Chen has not been missing for long, and many people still hold a glimmer of hope for the outcome of this matter.

What if He Chen was just delayed on the way and is still alive?

Even though it sounds like a fantasy, many disciples chose to bury their heads in the sand under immense pressure.

However, the outside world is able to view this matter with a clear and calm perspective.

Gradually, news of He Chen's death spread throughout Anning County.

……

The county magistrate's residence was enormous.

The atmosphere was oppressive.

Several figures sat inside.

Each of them was a high-ranking and powerful person in Anning County.

But now, a somber look appeared on their faces.
