Meeting the Martial Hall Again

Time flew by.

Three days later, with the help of the Essence Tempering Pills, Lin Shen successfully broke through to the seventh level of the Qi Transformation Stage.

[Name: Lin Shen]

[Talent: God’s Jealousy]

[Stage: Qi Transformation Level 7, 4%]

[Cultivation Technique: Original Breathing Technique (Mastery 68%), Blazing Sun Palm (Proficient 80%), Mortal Restrain (Beginner 8%)]

[Number of clones: 3 (80%)]

“I’ve reached Level 7 in the Qi Transformation Stage!”

Lin Shen heaved a long sigh of relief, his heart filled with joy.

In less than a month, he had soared from the fourth to the seventh level of the Qi Transformation Stage. The speed at which his strength increased was simply shocking!

All of this was thanks to his clone!

Lin Shen looked at the three clones around him and sighed.

He only had three clones now. When the number of clones increased to two digits in the future, how shocking would his cultivation speed be?

After a long while, Lin Shen recovered from his joy.

In order to break through to the seventh level, he had used up all the Essence Tempering Pills. Now, he only had the Condensing Liquid left.

Lin Shen took out the box of Condensing Liquid he bought from the black street from his storage jade plate. He picked up a tube and threw it to Clone 2.

After catching it, Clone 2 immediately removed the cork, raised his head, and poured the medicinal liquid into his mouth, drinking it in one gulp.

As the medicinal power spread, a burning pain suddenly filled Clone 2. It was as if he had drunk hot lava instead of medicinal liquid.

Enduring the pain, Clone 2 sat cross-legged and began to meditate to digest the medicinal power.

It took more than half an hour for Clone 2 to completely absorb the medicinal power. However, his face was a little pale, and his spirit was visibly weaker.

“The notes are right. This thing is really harmful to the body.”

Lin Shen looked at the interface. Fortunately, Clone 2’s cultivation progress had increased by 2%.

This effect was not beyond his expectations.

As his cultivation level increased, the effects of rare herbs of the same level would definitely be greatly reduced. Otherwise, the disciples of influential families would be able to cultivate the Long Breath Stage by taking pills alone. If that were the case, Yang Zhongyi wouldn’t still be at the seventh level of the Qi Transformation Stage.

In addition, if one consumed too many of the same medicinal pills, they would also develop resistance to their medicinal properties, further reducing the medicinal effects.

Lin Shen was already quite satisfied that 100ml of Condensed Liquid could increase his cultivation progress by 2%.

In fact, it was probably because of the digitization of the interface. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, the effect of Essence Tempering Pills and Condensing Liquid on cultivation wouldn’t be so obvious.

“Looks like I have to find another opportunity to go to the black market.”

Now that he had confirmed the effects of the Condensing Liquid, he naturally had to go on a shopping spree.

According to Lin Shen’s estimation, if he wanted to break through to the ninth level of the Qi Transformation Stage, he would need at least twenty to thirty liters of Condensing Liquid. The amount of Condensing Liquid needed to break through to the Long Breath Stage was even larger.

The five liters of Condensing Liquid he had now was far from enough!

However, considering he had just been to the black street three days ago, buying a large amount of Condensing Liquid twice in a short period of time would undoubtedly attract a lot of attention. Lin Shen thought about it and decided to go to the black street in a few days.

For now, he would use the five liters of Condensing Liquid.

He let Clone 2 continue to cultivate with the Condensing Liquid while the other two clones focused on cultivating the Blazing Sun Palm and comprehending Shadows.

Currently, he was only 20% away from reaching Mastery in the Blazing Sun Palm. According to Lin Shen’s estimation, he should be able to make a successful breakthrough before the competition.

On the other hand, he had been working on Shadows for days. Even though he had gained a lot, it was as if there was a thin barrier between them, and he couldn’t really achieve the Beginner stage.

“The efficiency of comprehending alone is still a little low.”

Lin Shen muttered to himself. Then, he switched to God’s Jealousy and began to comprehend Shadows as well.

…

“Lin Shen, has Zhou Zhihai been causing trouble for you recently?”

When school was about to end, Xu Yuan suddenly turned around and asked Lin Shen in a low voice.

Seeing Lin Shen shake his head, Zheng Hongsheng and Xu Yuan looked at each other in surprise.

“How strange. Has that Zhou Zhihai changed his personality? This doesn’t seem to fit his usual vengeful style!”

“Is it possible he’s afraid of Lin Shen?”

“That’s possible.”

Listening to their conversation, Lin Shen smiled indifferently.

He would deal with whatever came his way. Regardless of whether Zhou Zhihai took revenge or not, he just had to continue to focus on becoming stronger.

As long as he had enough strength, all schemes and plots were nothing to be afraid of.

There were no cultivation classes today, and they had knowledge-acquired courses in the afternoon.

After class, he patted the podium to attract the students’ attention and announced loudly,

“Mr. Kong Hong asked me to inform everyone that the registration deadline for the competition is approaching. Students who are interested but have yet to register have to hurry up!”

Hearing this, Lin Shen immediately slapped his forehead.

He had been so busy cultivating these past few days that he had forgotten he hadn’t signed up for the competition.

He would be so frustrated if he were eliminated for such a reason.

At the thought of this, Lin Shen couldn’t be bothered to talk to Zheng Hongsheng and Xu Yuan anymore. He gave them a random explanation and ran towards Kong Hong’s office.

Kong Hong’s office and Lin Shen’s classroom happened to be on opposite ends of the same floor.

When Lin Shen arrived at the office, the door was pushed open, and three men in black uniforms walked out.

Lin Shen vaguely found their faces familiar. It was not until he looked down and saw the mythological beast pattern on their chests that he suddenly remembered where he had seen them before.

They were the members of the Martial Enforcement Hall who had chased after the yellow-scarved warrior that night!

Lin Shen’s heart skipped a beat. He quietly brushed past the three of them and entered the office.

Han Wu took a few steps and suddenly stopped in his tracks. He turned around with a puzzled expression and happened to see Lin Shen’s back disappear at the office door.

“What is it, Captain?” one of his men asked suspiciously.

“That person looks familiar. I think I’ve seen him somewhere before,” Han Wu said thoughtfully.

The two subordinates looked at each other.

As the flag officer of the Martial Enforcement Hall, Han Wu was an influential figure. How could he know a Qi Transformation Stage student?

That was unless that person was a disciple of one of the eighteen influential families!

However, if that was the case, the two of them should have an impression of him.

After thinking for a moment, Han Wu shook his head and stopped trying.

That night, when he was chasing after the yellow-scarved warrior, he had encountered at least dozens of pedestrians along the way. Lin Shen was inconspicuous among these people. No matter how good Han Wu’s memory was, it was impossible for him to remember a passerby he had met by chance after half a month.

“Let’s go. There’s still a lot of work to do. Thank you for working overtime tonight.”

“Gosh, Tian Dian hasn’t been arrested yet, and a new case has appeared. I’m really exhausted!”

“I don’t know where that damn Tian Dian went. We searched for more than half a month with dozens of people, but we couldn’t find any clues. It’s really strange!”

“Could he have escaped from Dragonside City?”

“Impossible. He’s not a cultivator master. He can’t break out of the city’s protection formation. Without the tokens of the three major sects, he can’t leave the city at all!”

“Then maybe he’s dead in a corner somewhere.”

“If only that was the case…”
