Chapter 540 - 321: Taking the Enemy General’s Head Amidst Ten Thousand Troops! Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm—A Single Palm to Kill!

"There is no need to use heart thought to maneuver Qi and blood, as every move naturally holds the power of Qi blood."

"This step is Returning to the Origin."

"Above Returning to the Origin is Gui Xuan, a step about which I know little; it seems to be related to opening the Profound Gate of the body."

"Opening the Profound Gate of the flesh, unlocking the Divine Barrier, and understanding Divine Techniques."

"Hence, the Gui Xuan Realm is also called Divine Profound Realm, or Divine Barrier Realm; some even call it the Divine Mansion Realm."

As Ji Wujiang spoke, brilliance flashed from his fingertips, a few books flew out.

"I won’t give you the cultivation technique for the Sea of Qi Realm. Here are my insights on breaking through the Sea of Qi Realm, my thoughts on creating cultivation techniques for it, and my ideas about subsequent realms."

"Take it."

"Thank you, Grandmaster." Chu Ming felt a slight joy in his heart.

"I know you won’t choose to grow under my protection, so I won’t say much more. I just hope you can remember that life is of utmost importance. Only by living can everything be possible."

"Grandmaster, I understand."

"Mm," Ji Wujiang nodded slightly, his expression changing slightly, he smiled bitterly, "I used to think that one must venture through Martial Arts by oneself to gain understanding."

"Xiao Yu, Xiang Yue, all came through like this."

"But seeing you, I suddenly feel, perhaps I allowed too much freedom in the past..."

"....."

"Forget it," Ji Wujiang waved his big hand, and several items flew out again, "Take these treasures to your master."

"That Chang Qin Wenzheng in the Imperial City, with a petty, suspicious mind, although he let your master return to the Tiger Armor Army because of my influence."

"But I suspect, Chang Qin Wenzheng is surely still thinking of ways to remove Xiang Yue."

"There are thirteen counties in the Qin Dynasty, four of which are in the hands of that Bei Xue kid. Xirong County lies to the west of the dynasty, separated by Pingzhong County and Chi’an County; it’s only a matter of time before Bei Xue captures it."

"In this situation, instead of consolidating Tiger Armor Army’s defenses, Chang Qin Wenzheng is using your return as a pretext to plot an invasion of the Nine Hordes Kingdom territory."

"Xiang Yue thinks you were taken by the Nine Hordes Kingdom; he might fall into a trap, oh."

"Grandmaster, you mean Emperor Qin wants to use the Nine Hordes Kingdom to remove Master?"

Chu Ming frowned slightly.

"Killed in battle, even I can’t say much."

Ji Wujiang waved his hand and walked away.

"....."

...

One day later.

At the Wind Spirit Clan’s territory.

Chu Ming sat in black atop the hall, neither hiding his appearance nor concealing his aura, revealing himself in his original form.

"Clan Leader!"

On one side, Wind Spirit Clan elder Feeng Jun, elder Feeng Zhi, and Feeng Yi all kneeled in front.

On the other side were Spirit Contract Race elder Qi Lanshui, elder Qi Konghen, Qi Yuewu, and others.

Is this the Clan Leader’s true appearance?

The hearts of all were shaken.

His appearance and aura unmistakably indicated that the Clan Leader was a seventeen-year-old youth.

"Clan Leader, you..." Wind Spirit Clan elder Feeng Jun couldn’t hold back and asked.

"This is my original appearance." Chu Ming’s face was calm, "Everyone, rise."

"Yes."

Everyone got up.

"How is the Red Deer Army?" Chu Ming asked.

"Reporting to the Clan Leader, the Qi elder has been continuously taming the Sword-Horned Red Deer, and currently, there are already three thousand of them."

"The clan has selected fifteen hundred clansmen, a thousand from the Qi elder, and five hundred more from previously selected ones, forming and training them into the Red Deer Army."

"Mm."

Chu Ming nodded slightly, not saying much more.

The formation of the Red Deer Army was something he was not particularly concerned with.

After a pause, Wind Spirit Clan elder Feeng Jun suddenly stepped forward, grave and serious, "Clan Leader..."

"Speak."

"The other day, we discovered the location of the Wolf Race’s territory."

"Just more than two hundred miles east of the Mieqin River Bay, within the Blood Sorrow Mountain Range, where you saved the clansmen before."

The Blood Sorrow Mountain Range?

"Alright, I understand." Chu Ming responded casually.

Coming to the Wind Spirit Clan, was just a passageway, not intentional; he needed to quickly head to Xirong County to find his master.

"Elder..." Feeng Jun had a stern face, wanting to say something.

"We’ll discuss this again later."

How could Chu Ming not understand what the Wind Spirit Clan was thinking of, nothing more than aiming to strike at the Wolf Race’s territory to avenge the blood feud of the Wolf Race’s enslavement of the Wind Spirit Clan.

"The Wolf Race has someone at the Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm, you are not opponents yet."

He flicked his fingers and some armors and treasures fell into Feeng Jun’s hands.

"The Red Deer Army is too small in number, continue to expand."

After saying this, he left the hall and departed from the Wind Spirit Clan’s territory.

The Wind Spirit Clan is still too weak, unable to keep up with his pace of becoming stronger.

The reason he still invested resources in their cultivation, there are several reasons.

Firstly, he wanted to verify what was mentioned in the "Cyan Cloud Secret Record" regarding fate, clan flourishing, and abundant fortune leading to treasure spirits.

If the Wind Spirit Clan became stronger, would the Wind Spirit Ancient Tree also become stronger?

Secondly, it was because the Wind Spirit Clan Tree and the Wind Spirit Ancient Tree Spirit recognized him as master, granting some low-tier useless treasures to the Wind Spirit Clan as a return for the Azure Ancient Spirit Dew produced by the Wind Spirit.

Another reason.

With the Qin Dynasty in turmoil, the millennial calamity descending, he hoped the Wind Spirit Clan could become a sanctuary.

Not to protect himself, but Little Shan, Housekeeper Fang, Shen Yu, and even Master Xiang Yue.

The Qin Dynasty is too small for the now present Chu Ming.

Soaring through the air, flying to Xirong County.

"Young Master." Little Shan was overjoyed.

"Clan Leader." Feeng Yao, who was responsible for protecting Little Shan, appeared.

"Chu Ming." Shen Yu looked on with shock, "Weren’t you captured by the Nine Hordes Kingdom... oh, I understand now!"

Shen Yu had a sudden realization, "It was fake!"

Chu Ming smiled softly and nodded, saying, "I observe that Brother Shen’s Qi blood is strong, you are already in the Late Stage of the Blood Circulation Realm?"

"Haha, you finally noticed." Shen Yu straightened up his back, "My aptitude is undeniable."

"..."

Chu Ming smiled without speaking.

According to Grandmaster Ji Wujiang, everyone’s body is different, and so is aptitude.

Aptitude is not inherently ranked, but influenced by worldly cultivation techniques, some people fit certain techniques, while others struggle to find a technique that suits them.
