Chapter 18: Chapter 18: The True Ten Thousand Catty Strength, the Madam is Taking Action

Translator: 549690339

Zhao Huai looked at the upgraded brand-new Destiny, and surprise was revealed in his eyes.

“Peak Ultimate’s Intension? This special effect is too heaven-defying.”

Firstly, the added power was twice the original, reaching a fourfold increase.

Moreover, the special effect was that, as long as Extreme Intension was activated, and entering the peak state, double cultivation-boost could be obtained, which was equivalent to a skill of burning essence and blood, but without the need to consume qi blood.

One enhances the technique’s power and the other improves one’s cultivation.

Thus, Zhao Huai had a guess.

If the support of Peak Ultimate’s Intension destiny was added, and Extreme Intension was activated, would the power of the burst technique be able to stack?

If it was possible, the combined power of the two would be eight times the original?!

Zhao Huai’s mind began spinning rapidly.

A strong adult male’s full-force punch would weigh about 150 kg.

Qi-refining cultivators have ten times their power, so they can exert a force of 1,500 kg.

However, his punch’s power was eight times that of a regular qi-refining cultivator, which was 12,000 kg!

After activating Extreme Intension, could he easily strike with the power of 10,000 kg?

Killing a burly demonic beast in one blow would be a breeze!

Although the above calculations were just Zhao Huai’s temporary assumptions and had many uncertainties, the value of the eightfold power was not affected.

“Merging Destiny [Peak Ultimate’s Intension].”

Without any hesitation, Zhao Huai immediately absorbed the destiny.

With the ultimate bloom of the destiny light group.

Zhao Huai carefully felt the changes in his body. He found that the cells in his body seemed to open up, becoming extremely active and lively, and the meridians in his body widened, allowing his True Qi to flow faster.

The quality of qi inside his body was much higher than before.

More importantly, his muscle strength surged, his qi blood surged, and his spirit became much better.

If Zhao Huai’s figure was previously more elegant and thin, now it could be called perfect.

Having power without losing beauty, his muscle curves were incomparably perfect and just right.

This was a prerequisite to opening up the peak transformation, as the flesh body must withstand it.

Zhao Huai felt very good about himself. Then, he dismantled [Scholar of Wood Plants] and upgraded [Vajra Body].

[Vajra Body (High-quality Yellow)] – Your flesh body becomes extremely hard, and iron weapons cause negligible harm to you, except for magical weapons.

Unlike before, [Vajra Body] did not need to consume True Qi and could now resist all iron injuries. The upgrade was limited due to the limitation of destiny, so it didn’t advance to the black-grade level.

“Senior, the technique has been brought to you.”

Li Yanqing, who had been standing nearby and didn’t dare to disturb Zhao Huai as he pondered, finally spoke up when the beautiful maid holding an exquisite jade slip in her hands slowly approached.

Zhao Huai’s consciousness returned to the present, and he couldn’t help but feel a strong interest in the Insanity Technique presented before him.

“I will give you the money later.”

After handing over the money and spiritual stones, Li Yanqing shook his head with a smile, “This technique will be my registration fee for you, senior. From now on, you are my teacher.”

He generously gifted the large sum of 3,000 spiritual stones. It wasn’t necessarily foolish of the youngster to do so. He did have some cunning in him.

Zhao Huai couldn’t help but think so.

“You said your father is a governor. Is he the prefecture chief of Jinzhou?”

True to the saying, those who take other’s things find it hard to resist their demands. Zhao Huai’s attitude was no longer so indifferent as it had been before.

“Exactly.”

Li Yanqing nodded solemnly, “My father discovered a new spiritual mine with the Heliacal Mysterious Sect a month ago. He’s in charge of mining it. Senior, if you teach me qi-refining, there will definitely be no shortage of spiritual stones.”

“You dare to speak of such confidential matters. Aren’t you afraid I’ll sell you out?”

Zhao Huai’s mouth twitched, at a loss for words.

It turned out that the little lad’s family had a mine, no wonder he was so rich.

At the beginning of the Great Xia Dynasty, each state established the position of governor, who was regarded as the top local official. The position of the Jinzhou prefecture chief was still very high.Jinzhou, geographically, is located in the south near the sea, known for its salt trade, making it one of the rich cities in Xia Country.

“I trust senior.”

Li Yanqing said solemnly.

Seeing his attitude, Zhao Huai’s eyes were slightly moved. Since coming here, he had always felt that this world was cruel and full of intrigue, but this boy’s attitude made him change his mind.

“This auction is now over. Thank you for coming, and we hope to see you next time!”

Li Yuanxing, who was at the center of the counter, looked at the empty backstage with a smile on his face and announced the end of the auction.

The four masked men under the stage stared deeply at the single room on the high platform and left the scene.

Zhao Huai’s eyes were fixed on it, and he knew it was time to leave.

He looked at the Insanity Technique in his hand.

He couldn’t help but ponder.

Why do demons need this cultivation technique so much?

…

At this moment, in Huai’s pawnshop located in the east busy street, a charming woman sat.

It was hard not to glance at her as the passing men just wanted to feast their eyes.

This pawnshop owner’s new wife was even better-looking than the Tofu Beauty in the west lane. It was really strange; no one knew where he got such a beautiful woman.

Yu Qinghan enjoyed the sun, leisurely basking in it. The tall table in front of her was laid out with melon seeds, cake dates, dried fruits, and fresh fruit.

She squinted her eyes against the dazzling sunlight, stretching out her delicate jade hand, looking like a lazy little kitten.

This was the life a normal person should live, carefree and content.

Yu Qinghan thought to herself.

What should I buy for dinner tonight?

Her husband should be home in a couple of hours.

It’s been a long time since they last had dumplings, so maybe they should have dumplings tonight, with chive and mutton filling?

Or maybe pork and cabbage filling…

However, the next second, an untimely dark shadow appeared beside her, interrupting her thoughts.

“My Princess, something terrible has happened!”

“What is it?”

Yu Qinghan replied indifferently.

The woman who appeared from the shadow half-knelt and reported, “Someone found out that the princess’s name and portrait have appeared on the bounty list in the black market this afternoon and have been taken by someone.”

“I have been tracking the traces of the two assassins all the way, but I was still a step behind. The assassins may have entered Jinzhou by now, so I came to inform the princess.”

“It’s just an assassin. I have fought powerful enemies at the Initiation Stage, so what is there to fear?” Yu Qinghan shook her head, not afraid.

“My Princess may not be afraid, but Young Master Zhao…”

“Yes, my husband…”

Yu Qinghan suddenly realized that she didn’t need to worry about assassins with her cultivation level, but Zhao Huai was different. He was just an ordinary person. If the assassin didn’t target her first but attacked her weakness instead, what should she do?

The beautiful maid-servant noticed Yu Qinghan suddenly standing up, her aura changing, and a cold murderous intent filling the air.

“Your Highness, the princess…”

The beautiful maid-servant hesitated, only to be interrupted.

“You watch the shop. I’ll be back shortly.”

Yu Qinghan held her wrist, giving a cold order.

In the next second, she turned into a residual shadow, disappearing on the spot.

A very fast figure swept across the eaves, and many people couldn’t see what it was.

Passers-by on the road glanced sideways, wondering where this sudden gust came from during the day.
