157 Elder Erlong

Very quickly, Qin Huai retracted his aura and changed his tone.

The qi and blood in his body were restless, and a pair of blood-red hands touched Qin Huai’s other rib. He could feel that there was a faint mark on his ribs. Although he could not feel the shape, there were traces.

Buzzzzzz!

Qin Huai’s eyes suddenly widened, and an ominous glint appeared in them.

The air around him seemed to have frozen.

Qin Huai looked at the flower pot in the courtyard. He could vaguely ‘see’ that there were some weak spots on the flower pot that would break if hit.

“A flaw?”

These words popped up in Qin Huai’s mind. Or rather, it was a wild instinct.

“This is just the tip of the iceberg. If I can completely master the force of the bone pattern realm, I’ll definitely be able to see its complete form. If… How about having a meeting with the two forces?”

Qin Huai slowly activated it, and a burning feeling spread over his body and bones.

Ka ka ka…

He seemed to hear his bones cracking.

“This won’t do. My current physical body is still too weak. It’s not enough to support two types of forces at the same time.”

Qin Huai gave up decisively. He began to cultivate in the courtyard, waiting for the night to fall.

…

Zhang family’s courtyard

“Father, why are many of the elders in the family forbidding their children from approaching the Blood Dragon Platform?”

Zhang Haoyue and his father, Zhang Wu, were standing side by side by the window of the study.

“You’re still young. You’ve never seen Elder Erlong’s actions in his youth.” Zhang Wu’s brows were tightly furrowed, and he looked very solemn.

Zhang Haoyue was interested and listened.

“The three dragon elders are blood brothers. Among them, the first and third dragon elders are extremely talented. They were regarded as pearls by their families when they just started cultivating, and soon, they showed their talents in the Nine Dragons sect.”

Zhang Wu paused for a moment. “Unfortunately, the Gu family, where the three dragon elders were from, was a small family in our Nine Dragons sect. The three brothers seemed to have exhausted their luck when they were born. After a few decades, their bloodline was cut off due to various accidents with their descendants.

“Cough cough… That Elder Erlong can only be called barely satisfactory, but with such a pair of brothers protecting him, Elder Erlong’s actions are very unreasonable.

“When he was provoked by the Zhang family, he never showed mercy. And it’s full of tricks. He’s the best at using poison.

“There was a time when the Zhang family, the governor’s mansion, and the Twin Extreme sect… It can be said that the peers of the three forces don’t dare to get within five meters of him.”

“What a good fellow.” Zhang Haoyue couldn’t help but be surprised. How amazing was this battle record? That was why so many geniuses were so afraid of him.

Zhang Wu said, “But as he grew older, Elder Erlong didn’t use poison anymore.”

“It’s probably because of his maturity.” Zhang Haoyue agreed.

“No, it’s just that the young people of the same age have already grown up. When their realms are higher, they have the money to sell antidotes, so they don’t fear his poison.”

“But who is Elder Erlong?”

Zhang Wu couldn’t help sighing. “Elder Erlong knows that he’s not talented enough, so he went to study some extremely dangerous forbidden techniques!

“In the beginning, Elder Erlong was repeatedly thwarted and even broke his arms and legs. One day, he found that he had a very good affinity with our True Path sect’s concealment of spirit and qi.

“As a result, his double slender qi formula and clasping yuan guarding technique made unstoppable progress.”

When Zhang Haoyue heard about the concealment of spirit and qi, he couldn’t help but have ripples in his eyes.

This was the True Path sect’s most authentic longevity cultivation technique. If one successfully cultivated it, as long as there were no disasters or illnesses, one could live for three to five hundred years.

But unfortunately…

Although this technique could allow one to live for a long time, the difficulty of cultivating it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

The True Path sect had countless martial artists who had cultivated this technique, but they had all returned with no success. They could not even get into the sect.

He hadn’t thought that this Elder Erlong would have such talent.

Zhang Wu continued, “As Elder Erlong made rapid progress in the concealment of spirit and qi, he also began to show results in his study of those dangerous forbidden techniques.

“He studied all kinds of shortening of lifespan and burning of blood. He even took out the forbidden techniques that had the risk of sudden death.

“After that, he used them to ambush geniuses from all over the world. He became famous all of a sudden.”

“Then what does this have to do with an ordinary disciple approaching Elder Erlong?” Zhang Haoyue was puzzled.

“Hehe… Because this Elder Erlong is very happy every time he has a new forbidden technique. He wants to spread these forbidden techniques to the sect’s disciples to learn.”

“But how could there be any disciples who cultivate the concealment of spirit and qi like him? It’s impossible to cultivate it.”

“Well, Elder Erlong described the power of those forbidden techniques as heavenly flowers, so it’s hard for any young man not to be tempted. They know that if they try it, they might be injured or even crippled, but after Elder Erlong’s temptation, there will definitely be people who want to try it, and in the end, it will lead to a tragedy.”

Zhang Wu sighed. “So in the end, the only solution everyone could think of was to order their disciples, including themselves, to stay away from Elder Erlong when they saw him smile. As long as we don’t listen to his bewitchment, we won’t try those dangerous forbidden techniques!”

“I see…” Zhang Haoyue nodded. “Then, will Brother Qin’s return to the clan this time affect my bones?”

“You go and inquire about the situation first. I will also arrange a backup plan… For now, let’s just wait and see,” Zhang Wu said in a deep voice.

…

In the middle of the night, Qin Huai quietly went up the back mountain.

“Grandmaster!”

“Disciple!”

Elder Erlong’s white hair draped over his shoulders, and his long white beard was also quite casual. He looked a little unkempt.

He was very tall, about two meters tall. He was full of vitality, and his skin was not wrinkled.

If it weren’t for this white blessing, with Elder Erlong’s appearance, he would actually only be in his forties or fifties.
