Super Divine Daoist Skill-Chapter 43: Sect Leader Liu Dong

"It should be, it should be. Being acquainted with Junior Brother Bai is my honor."

Qian Ming hurriedly said.

"Is that so?"

Bai Ziyue made no definite reply.

Watching the distant back of Qian Ming, Bai Ziyue pondered for a moment, then left quickly as well.

"Qi Blood Pill?"

Opening the so-called compensation gift from Qian Ming, Bai Ziyue showed a hint of surprise.

Inside a wooden box, one Qi Blood Pill after another was neatly arranged, a total of twelve pills.

From their appearance, the difference between Qi Blood Pills and Qi Blood Dan was not significant. Both were pink and thumb-sized, but compared to Qi Blood Pills, Qi Blood Dan was more smooth and lustrous, with a faint glow of spirit light.

However, Qi Blood Pills were much rougher. Although he had never taken them before, he knew that the effectiveness of the two was vastly different.

"Calculating at the value of one Qi Blood Pill per liang of silver, Qian Ming indeed spent some money."

Twelve liang of silver was quite a sum for an ordinary Inner Sect Apprentice.

But Bai Ziyue also knew that the other party was spending money for peace, without genuine awe for him.

After all, once he truly became the Sect Leader’s disciple, a single word from him could make things difficult for Qian Ming.

Bai Ziyue naturally didn’t want to resort to such measures, but he also wouldn’t refuse benefits sent to his door.

"I’ve always heard of the effectiveness of Qi Blood Pills in strengthening qi and blood, accelerating the cultivation speed. I had planned to try them when the Inner Sect Apprentices received their monthly allotment. But now, this seems timely."

With that thought, Bai Ziyue didn’t hesitate and directly picked up a Qi Blood Pill, swallowing it in one gulp.

As soon as the Qi Blood Pill entered his stomach, he immediately felt a surge of heat spreading through his entire body.

The physical strength he had expended through martial arts training was instantly replenished, and he felt a surge of boundless power. freёnovelkiss.com

Without any hesitation, he immediately started his practice.

He naturally practiced the Zen Meditation Posture!

Whether it was Qi Blood Pills or Qi Blood Dan, these pills primarily enhanced a martial artist’s physical strength and physique, with restoring energy being a secondary effect.

With the Zen Meditation Posture at the Perfection Level and the unique method of integrating exertion from the One-character Punch, his control over his internal qi and blood had reached a remarkable level.

Under his control, the surging qi and blood quickly became organized, flowing rapidly within his body along with the power of the Zen Meditation Posture.

He felt a comfortable warmth spreading through his body and mind.

After a while, feeling the heat completely dissipate, Bai Ziyue ceased his practice.

"Strength increased by 0.02, officially breaking the ’2’ point barrier, now on the same level as physique.

As for speed and physique, each only increased by 0.01.

Indeed, my body still has potential to be tapped, but perhaps because I have raised the Zen Meditation Posture to the Perfection level, the effect of the Qi Blood Pills has diminished."

Bai Ziyue compared silently, understanding the situation.

Qi Blood Pills were undoubtedly beneficial for ordinary Inner Sect Apprentices, greatly enhancing their physical strength and physique, but their effect on him was relatively mild.

If his control over his power were not already at an extraordinary level, the effectiveness might have been even weaker.

"Still, even if weaker, it’s better than nothing."

Bai Ziyue had expected the effect of the Qi Blood Pills. The fact that they could restore his power and enhance his strength delighted him; naturally, he wouldn’t be disappointed.

He planned to use the remaining eleven Qi Blood Pills when he formally trained his Fifth Rank Golden Body.

Because he had heard that External Forging and Internal Cultivation consumed a lot of qi and blood; relying on normal dietary cultivation alone was far from sufficient.

It truly showcased the saying "A wealthy man practices martial arts."

...

"Bai Ziyue, the Sect Leader requests your presence!"

In the afternoon, a young man in his early twenties wearing a grey shirt found Bai Ziyue and spoke.

This grey shirt was the standard attire for miscellaneous disciples in the Sunburst Gang, while Outer Disciples wore blue, and Inner Sect Disciples wore black.

"Please lead the way, Senior Brother."

Bai Ziyue thought to himself that it was finally time, and quickly spoke.

Although the young man was just a miscellaneous disciple, working closely with the Sect Leader garnished natural respect, so Bai Ziyue did not take him lightly.

"No need for such courtesy."

The young man seemed not very talkative, and just said a word as he led the way ahead.

Bai Ziyue quickly followed, finally putting his slightly anxious heart at ease.

Even though others were saying that the Sect Leader intended to take him as a disciple, as long as the news was not confirmed, he had a lingering anxiety.

Now that the Sect Leader had truly sent someone, he felt more assured.

"This is the path to the front courtyard?"

He chuckled to himself.

Figures like the Sect Leader naturally resided in the front courtyard.

Only the apprentices, with relatively low status, were unqualified to set foot in the front courtyard.

This was his first time observing the scenes in the front courtyard.

He had thought that the environment he had seen at Mr. Hou’s residence was already quite serene and luxurious, but upon observing the pavilions, gardens with rockeries, and flowing water here, he realized that Mr. Hou’s residence appeared rather shabby in comparison.

Not only was it large, but also extremely exquisite.

The rockeries were cleverly integrated with the water flow, golden carp swam in the clear lake, sometimes entering the rockery, emerging from another exit after a swim, sometimes leaping into another pond, where large, plump carp rolled in the waves.

The trees were subtly incorporated into the surroundings, serene and natural.

Even the pavilions not far away bore a rich historical charm, not only exquisite but also having a sense of time’s weight.

Following the young man, Bai Ziyue soon entered a guest hall.

There, he immediately saw a tall, thin middle-aged man. His forehead was wide, and his eyebrows thick. Perhaps due to his height, his eyes and cheeks were somewhat sunken, giving him an ordinary appearance.

But his gaze was extremely bright, even sharp. Just one look, and Bai Ziyue felt a vague sting, as if burned by his sight.

Bai Ziyue’s heart trembled as he recognized this middle-aged man as Liu Dong, the Sect Leader of the Sunburst Gang’s Qinghe Town Branch, and master of the Celestial Entwining Hand.

His judgement was soon confirmed.

"Sect Leader, Bai Ziyue is here."

The young man said respectfully.
