Chapter 255: 0182 Golden Jade Ming King (4k)

Silver Eagle Federation.

North Alaska.

Mammoth Ancient Tomb, northern North America once had giants too; however, they were not the African Elephants or Asian Elephants of today, but the Mammoth Giant Elephants.

Such ancient beasts as mammoths, possessing immense strength and unparalleled physical bodies, were extinct, but a super giant elephant once appeared on the ancient murals of North America.

Holy Image King · Belifant.

According to ancient records, this was the king who controlled both earth and fire.

The Arctic current brought piercingly cold winds like knives, and on the wilderness of the Mammoth Ancient Tomb, two figures, resembling ascetic monks, walked in the vast snowy field wearing only trousers.

Ricken’s eyes sparkled with brilliance, displaying the silent wisdom of the elephant.

By his side stood a bald old man over three meters tall, his arms thick as titanic pythons with veins and muscles that seemed like the torture devices of demons.

Elephant King · Belrand.

Earth List rank 66 Fighting Master, just a step away from becoming a Fighting Grandmaster.

Yet the final realm of the Holy Image was like a chasm, hard to cross.

Roar, roar...

Several lean brown bears that had just ended their hibernation charged towards them.

Belrand said indifferently,

"Ricken, take care of them."

"Okay, teacher."

Ricken moved like an ancient elephant running wild in the wilderness.

Soon, the two brown bears were flung away, frantically fleeing.

Belrand nodded slightly.

"I never expected that Rickett would actually send me a decent successor. I thought he was just a clumsy kid, but now he has surprised me."

After Ricken returned, he asked,

"Teacher, did the Holy Image King really exist?"

"Many indigenous myths are actually their objective records."

"The Holy Image Relics we are heading to wouldn’t have ancient evil spirits, would they?"

"What, scared?"

"Not scared."

"Relax, this relic site is the holy land of the Holy Image sect. Since ancient times, countless masters have visited it for worship and observation. Even if there were evil spirits, they would have been exterminated by the strong... Besides, with your teacher here, what is there to fear?"

"I hope I can use this opportunity to comprehend high-level easing techniques."

Belrand looked at the naive young man and said nothing. Ever since Ricken arrived in North America, his cultivation had progressed much faster than before, just like opening the acupoint. According to his observations over the years, this young man might really possess the credentials of the Holy Image.

He had taken this young man to travel across North America on foot and engage in rigorous cultivation just to make a pilgrimage to the Holy Image Relics and to test using the methods left by the ancient sages.

Ricken followed behind his teacher, lost in thought.

"I wonder what realm Lu is at now?"

The physical cultivation of the Holy Image school was almost isolated from the outside world.

Anyway, he was already close to the Seventh Rank, and only one step away from mastering high-level techniques.

"With Lu’s talent for sudden insight, he must be close to the Ninth Rank, right? At the All Nations Martial Arts Competition seven years later, I definitely must fight Lu atop Mount Huangshan as a fighter."

He had dreamt of that day for the past year.

...

Several days later, April 8.

Dragon City Martial Arts University, main campus.

The Super Hidden Dragon Tournament was drawing nearer.

Qi Blood Measurement Room.

[Congratulations, your Qi Blood Value is 8, reaching the current realm’s limit.]

Li Fu finished his stance and stood still, his heart as calm as an ancient well.

"The Heavenly Dragon Hand is perfected, 30 acupoints opened, Qi-Blood also at its limit... Only Three Forces Combined is left, I wonder if I can succeed within two months?

If I do, I won’t need to participate in the Super Hidden Dragon Tournament. As for the competition among the Martial Artists group, with my initial strength, there’s no need to join."

Li Fu was not particularly fixated on being one of the Dragon City Ten.

He also didn’t want to compete with others much, not understanding why, but during this period, he always felt as if invisible eyes were "sinisterly and twistedly" spying on him.

He was a person of a Buddhist nature, not wanting to be on anyone’s mind.

...

Changping branch school.

A figure was fighting two opponents on the stage and not falling behind.

Below the stage, many were impressed.

"Truly the number one person in our branch school, and possibly a Martial Bone Daoist."

"With the strength of Guo Bai, being one of the Dragon City Ten is secure."

"Becoming the top one in Dragon City is not without hope."

...

Qinggang branch school.

Ding Jingqiu looked at the leaderboard.

[Lu Chenzhou: 465...]

[Ding Jingqiu: 478]

"Who exactly is this person from Su City Dragon Martial?"

He possessed a top-class root bone and the posture of sudden insight.

One could say his talent was infinitely close to being a Martial Bone Daoist.

Having already been rated as a special-class talent, he was still being firmly suppressed by Lu Chenzhou.

He was somewhat puzzled.

"Could it be because he cultivates both internally and externally and gets extra points?"

...

Central Plains branch school, Stone City branch school, and those geniuses from the main campus’ Dragon Ascending Class had already begun preparing for this year’s Super Hidden Dragon Tournament two months in advance.

Lu Chenzhou, ranked even higher on the Hidden Dragon List than Li Fu, was undoubtedly a key focus for them. Li Fu was a Martial Bone Daoist; what was Lu Chenzhou?

...

April 10, early morning.

Jiangnan region, another spring amid the misty rain.

By Stone Lake, light rain and swallows flying in pairs.

In Villa No. 32, bedroom, curtains closed even during the day.

"Whew!"

Lu Chenzhou was practicing the Iron Crotch Skill. After some rubbing, an indescribable exhilarating power flowed in the groin and pubic areas, as if a volcano was about to erupt, the heat from the acupoints transforming Lu Chenzhou’s limbs and bones, elevating Qi-Blood.

"Exhilarating!"

Lu Chenzhou looked at the Martial Arts Tree.

[Iron Crotch Skill: Great Success (1%)]

"Broke through..."

He had started cultivating this hard Qigong method since last July, and in just nine months it had achieved Great Success. It seems his talent in that area is also not bad.

"By the second half of this year, it’s expected that the Iron Crotch Skill can be perfected."

Lu Chenzhou was curious.

What kind of Divine Seed could this method nurture once perfected?
