Until dusk, the wives dispatched by Zili finally returned.

They also brought back a large number of second-grade pills.

Late at night, Zili had no reason to let these wives leave the inner camp, which was against the rules, so Su Yue could only wait until the next morning to practice his Qi points.

Of course, Su Yue couldn't just idle around.

There were still five days until the great war.

He had already made a hole, but in five days, he could only make one hole a day. After all, he wasn't a professional miner.

A sleepless night.

Before dawn, a mole rat emerged from the cave on the cliff, completely covered in dirt.

Another hole successfully made.

Damn it.

While I'm miserably digging holes here, those shameless fools Lan Lu and Zili are probably also digging holes.

We're all digging holes, so why am I working so hard?

No, it seems Lan Lu is also working hard.

In the tunnel leading to East Battle Dao, Su Yue also made several small marks on the ground, so he would notice if anyone stepped in.

Thankfully.

Dianshi City hadn't sent any fifth-grade scouts again.

Actually, Su Yue was overthinking.

Jiao Qingyuan had been clear; the last contact was his and the Yangxiang Race's final meeting.

Returning to the camp, dawn had arrived, and as Su Yue tidied up briefly, he received a message from Zili.

Everything was ready.

The wives were dispatched with various excuses, the guard camp was on high alert today, while Zili wrapped the stone slab of the Moon Nether True Scripture with a heavy beast skin, making it completely impenetrable.

She even went as far as to set up a sacrificial altar, looking all mystical.

The guards were already scared out of their wits by this setup, strictly complying with Zili's orders, fearing any mistakes.

Meanwhile, Su Yue found an opportunity to sneak into the tent quietly.

The hole inside the tent was ready, thanks to Zili.

Not too big or small, just enough to reach out a hand and touch the slab, with a tall stool inside for meditation, accompanied by a bag of pills hanging nearby, plenty in number.

Women really are considerate.

On the stool, Zili had even placed a piece of beast skin, probably worried about Su Yue's comfort.

Attention to detail.

Details truly determine success or failure.

This was an emperor-level service, and Su Yue couldn't help but be deeply moved.

No wonder the Black Banner Hall trusts Zili so much, being a seventh grade.

Lan Lu would die before leaving her, without regrets.

This quiet and considerate care can easily make a man dependent on her, making it hard to leave.

Is this the ultimate form of mental enchantment?

Su Yue shook his head, discarding distracting thoughts.

There's no time to waste; start training immediately.

Su Yue placed his palm on the stone slab.

Buzz!

As expected, the familiar Qi blood fluctuation transmitted in, the mutual attraction of battle arts causing intense pain within Su Yue's body.

Even switching to the Yangxiang Race state did not affect the cultivation of the Moon Nether True Scripture.

This battle art, irrespective of race, only requires Qi points in the body.

Splash!

In just a few minutes, a Qi point was successfully opened.

Su Yue's Qi blood was partially depleted. Without using his hand, he maneuvered a string to scoop up a handful of pills, directly stuffing them into his mouth.

Relief.

Despite the intense pain throughout his body, Su Yue felt a satisfaction that made him want to shout.

Of course, it was just a thought; he didn't dare to yell, or it might attract attention.

Since he had already opened 70 Qi points, the remaining 20 weren't too difficult and could be done swiftly.

Actually, the most painful and challenging time was at the old home.

Afterward, in the West Martial region, it became much easier.

And now, everything flows smoothly.

...

Outside the tent.

Zili knelt under the stone slab, pretending to chant incantations, not even knowing what she was muttering, just putting on a show of solemnity.

Suddenly.

She sensed an anomaly in the stone slab.

Though wrapped in thick beast skin, the slab emitted no visible light, but Zili clearly felt a surging Qi blood fluctuation.

"Young City Lord Yu Jing City truly is extraordinary.

"At a mere second-grade level, he can emit Qi blood waves no weaker than third grade, proving his innate talent.

"No, am I oversimplifying this?

"Did Young City Lord Hong Huo come to Yu Jing City just to escape pursuit, seeking temporary refuge?

"No, it shouldn't be that simple.

"This might be a test from Yu Jing City's City Lord. If it's a test, there must be a Guardian.

"Damn, there might be a Guardian lurking somewhere around Young City Lord Hong Huo."

Feeling the unusual Qi blood fluctuation, Zili's smart brain was in rapid motion again.

She felt her analysis was logical and well-founded.

With such terrifying talent, ordinary young city lords simply couldn't compare.

If I were the city lord, with such an excellent son, how could I not cultivate him well?

Temporary weakness isn't the problem; the most difficult part is long-term potential.

Like me, many stay stuck at the fifth grade for long periods.

But to display such outstanding talent at such a young age truly makes one in a million, possibly directly breaking through to the ninth grade in the future.

Zili, while unable to confirm Su Yue's Qi points, was after all a fifth grade, and still a knowledgeable one.

She could confirm that the Qi rings Young City Lord Hong Huo operated definitely exceeded 60 Qi points.

What does this mean?

A prodigy.

When such a boy tries to hide it?

You're not fleeing; you're actually in training.

The hidden strength of Yu Jing City is indeed terrifying.

Realizing this, Zili felt a chill, knowing that Lan Lu said he had been tempted to kill several times. If it hadn't been for Hong Huo's assertive aggression and strong presence, he would have done it.

Fool.

Luckily, you were smart this time. If you had ignorantly killed Hong Huo, you'd have been instantly obliterated by Yu Jing City's Guardian.

You must be loyal to the Young City Lord to see a future ahead.

Zili understood well.

Providing help in adversity is far more significant than adding splendor to what's already magnificent.

Helping Hong Huo now is indeed offering assistance at a crucial time.

...

The 76th Qi point… opened!

The 81st Qi point… opened!

The 86th Qi blood… opened!

...

With one Qi point after another being consecutively opened, behind Su Yue, a final crescent moon appeared.

...

88 Qi Blood!

Open!

89 Qi Blood!

Open!

90 Qi Blood!

Open!

...

The moon's shadow is hazy.

The azure dragon coils around the moon.

After thoroughly opening 90 Qi points, Su Yue's speed of assimilating Spiritual Qi reached a terrifying speed he couldn't even have imagined.

Due to the rapid rotation of his Qi Blood, the originally cold and damp tent was actually baked, releasing a layer of misty vapor.

Su Yue himself was simply like a furnace.

The chair under his buttocks was dried for the first time, the wood began to crack from inside to outside, producing snapping sounds.

Su Yue also experienced the long-lost dryness.

Unknowingly, half of the bag of pills beside his hand had already been consumed.

One must know, that is the dosage of a regular Second Grade for half a month.

Buzz!

Buzz!

Buzz!

Card after card of Qi Blood, crazily increasing.

At this moment, Su Yue was like a black hole, a vortex, madly refining the Spiritual Qi from the pills within him.

He even entered a mysterious state, reaching a selfless realm.

The Moon Nether True Scripture, which humanity had lost for a long time, was finally merged by Su Yue.

The azure dragon coils around the moon.

The furnace is pure and clear.

At this moment, Su Yue finally achieved mastery in his divine skills.

...

Outside the tent.

Zili was utterly astonished.

Through the tent's door, she could clearly feel a strong surge of Qi Blood.

Not to mention Third Grade.

This had already infinitely approached the strength of Fourth Grade, it was suffocating.

Steam even faintly spread out from unsealed corners of the door.

Yes.

The dampness forms such steam under high temperatures.

To actually rotate the Qi ring to such high temperatures requires incredible speed, requires numerous Qi points.

Exactly how many Qi points does the Young City Lord Hong Huo possess?

Could it be... he can exceed 70?

Is it possible?

Unbelievable.

The more Qi points opened, the faster the Qi ring rotates, and this is unrelated to a person's grade, only related to the Qi ring.

To achieve such a degree can only prove that the Young City Lord Hong Huo is a genius among geniuses.

...

Another hour passed.

Even the ground outside the door was baked with some cracks, which is a rare dryness in a wet environment.

And Su Yue finally reluctantly stopped the Qi ring rotation.

He was utterly exhausted, unable to persist any longer.

No matter how many Qi Blood Pills there are, a person ultimately has a limit of fatigue, forcing oneself to continue is counterproductive.

Huff!

Su Yue exhaled a heavy breath of turbid air.

He concluded this session of cultivation.

Snap crackle pop.

Su Yue stepped down from the chair, his bones crackling frantically, producing sounds similar to firecrackers.

...

Available Effort Points: 31250

1: Sleep Waiver

2: Price of Love (next use consumes 3200 Effort Points)

3: Save Your Dog's Life

4: Distinction between Humans and Ghosts

5: Stealth Creepily

Qi Blood Value: 671

...

Great harvest!

Su Yue's effort points have finally broken through 30,000 again, which somewhat gives him a sense of security in battle.

And the Qi Blood value is an even bigger surprise.

Yes!

It directly surged by over 100, how could it not be astonishing?

One must know, after 500 cards, the difficulty of increase had already significantly heightened.

But Su Yue knew, this kind of crazy moment might just be the last, there couldn't be another, he would have to obediently go back to cultivation.

This time, achieving mastery in his divine skills, taking advantage of the gaps during Qi point opening, coupled with the support of a large amount of pills, allowed Su Yue to accomplish such a wide leap.

Overall.

Very satisfying.

Finally, the biggest stone weighing on Su Yue's heart could also fall.

Perfectly completed his wet environment journey.

"The room actually dried out, just how intensely did I toss around just now."

Coming back to his senses, Su Yue smelled a pungent odor.

Thinking carefully, this smell was familiar.

Yes!

It's the smell of clothes that are damp, returning to a particularly hot, particularly dry place, releasing this roasted burnt stench.

In the Wet Ghost Tower on Earth, every room's floor heating is set to maximum.

From the moment Martial Artists step into the dry room, this is the smell.

Unexpectedly, my little furnace actually warmed an alien race's tent.

Shaking his head, Su Yue pushed open the door.

Zili had already been waiting outside.

Since the moment Su Yue stopped cultivating, she had already sensed the situation, so she kept waiting for Su Yue to come out.

Meanwhile, the animal skin draping over the stone slabs was also removed.

Zili carefully observed.

On the stone slabs, some very fine cracks appeared, but if one doesn't look closely, it is impossible to notice.

It's no matter.

Even if the Black Banner knows, it's too late.

By then, she would already be with Lan Lu, carrying large quantities of source ores, following the Young City Lord Hong Huo to Yu Jing City.

The Black Banner won't dare come to Yu Jing City to seek revenge.
