Chapter 29 Late Stage of Skin Refining, Li Sui Injured
time flies.
More than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
The sun was shining brightly at that moment.
In the courtyard, Lin Zhou, with the help of herbal medicine and a medicinal bath, pushed the fused Tiger-Crane Double Form Fist to its perfect state in one go.
Even the Nine Transformations of the Spirit Serpent technique was upgraded to the second level by Lin Zhou.
"panel."
[Realm Level: Late Skin Refining]
[Technique: Tiger Form Fist Perfection (12/100)]
【Crane Style Fist Perfection (45/100)】
【Nine Transformations of the Serpent, Level 2 (23/100)】
After reaching the second level of the Nine Transformations of the Spirit Serpent, his speed increased significantly. Combined with the Lightness skill, even those with Bone Forging skill could not keep up with his speed.
As for how fast a martial artist with the Meridian Opening technique could move, he had no recollection of it.
Perhaps we'll only know after the comparison.
However, Lin Zhou was unable to find a suitable experimental subject in time.
About half a month later.
Of the daily check-in entries, only one level 1 one-time enlightenment entry was useful.
Lin Zhou planned to save this entry for when he broke through from skin refining to bone forging.
The other level 1 entries are not very useful and are rather useless.
"It's time to earn contribution points."
"This medicine is almost gone."
Lin Zhou pondered this in his heart.
After he broke through to the late stage of Skin Refining, the Qi and Blood Pills he brought from the Medicine King Gang had little effect on Lin Zhou, who was at the late stage of Skin Refining.
A higher level of Qi and Blood medicine is required to have an auxiliary effect.
Therefore, they suddenly found themselves in dire straits.
One must consume about ten doses of Qi and Blood Refining Pills at once to see any effect. However, these pills also contain toxicity. Consuming too many will cause toxicity to accumulate in the body, which is not a good thing.
Although Lin Zhou was able to treat and detoxify the erysipelas, the toxins still caused some damage to the body.
It would be best to use a higher-level Qi and Blood medicine.
Bang! Bang!
Suddenly, there was a knocking on the courtyard gate, and the maid Xiao Cui hurriedly went to open it.
After the courtyard gate opened, a black-clad disciple from the Qingyuan Sect hurriedly ran into the courtyard and stood in front of Lin Zhou.
"Pharmacist Lin, something terrible has happened! Sect Leader Li... was ambushed last night and is now seriously injured. Young Master requests your presence. I hope Pharmacist Lin will come with me to the Sect Leader's residence."
The disciple in black hurriedly spoke up.
"Oh?"
"That's true."
"I'll bring a medicine kit and go with you to the sect leader's residence."
Lin Zhou recognized the disciple who came to deliver the message; his name was Wang Quan. He had encountered Wang Quan several times at Sect Master Li's residence, and Wang Quan was the one who delivered the message almost every time someone came to report something.
"Okay, Pharmacist Lin."
Wang Quan nodded, his eyes filled with anxiety.
He knew very well that he was now tied to Sect Leader Li's ship. If Sect Leader Li were to suffer any misfortune or death in this sneak attack, he would lose his backer in the Qingyuan Sect.
Those disciples who had grudges against him in the past would surely pounce on him and devour his flesh!
Thinking about this, Wang Quan felt very anxious.
If a pharmacist could help Sect Leader Li escape danger, he would even kowtow to the pharmacist a hundred times.
Immediately afterward, Lin Zhou took out the medicine box and followed Wang Quan into the carriage at the gate, which sped out of Qingyuan Gate and headed straight for Sect Master Li's private residence.
"Pharmacist Lin, our eldest and second young masters now suspect that it was one of their own from the Qingyuan Sect who did it. The other party is familiar with the sect leader's techniques and is ruthless."
"It must be someone from within the sect who is retaliating."
"In recent times, because the eldest young master joined the Divine Arresting Sect, and you, Pharmacist Lin, obtained an iron token from the Divine Arresting Sect, the sect leader has begun to expand his sphere of influence within the sect."
"During this period, they swallowed up a lot of territory belonging to other factions within the sect."
"They've taken a lot of business from the gambling dens and restaurants; this is definitely retaliation against the sect leader."
Wang Quan, who was driving the carriage, spoke up.
Hearing what Wang Quan said, Lin Zhou seemed to be deep in thought. During this period, he had been cultivating his skills, hoping to advance to the Bone Forging Realm as soon as possible.
In Taihu County, those who refine skin are just ordinary disciples in various gangs. Once they enter the bone forging stage, they are considered to have initially distinguished themselves.
Lin Zhou did this so that he could legally use the rights of the iron-badged constable.
Once Yang Yuanfeng of the Divine Arresting Gate returns from his mission, he will be able to rightfully join the Divine Arresting Gate once he arrives in the prefectural city, given his Bone Forging stage strength.
However, everything depends on Yang Yuanfeng's safe return.
If he can't come, Lin Zhou's plan to go to the prefectural city will be impossible to complete for the time being.
A moment later.
Lin Zhou arrived at the Li residence. As soon as he entered, he sensed that something was wrong and the atmosphere was extremely tense. There were also several times more Qingyuan Sect disciples patrolling the residence than usual.
Each of them stared intently at their surroundings, ready to detect the slightest disturbance.
Wang Quan led Lin Zhou into a side room.
Upon entering, a strong medicinal smell permeated the entire room, emanating from the sickbed of Sect Leader Li Sui.
At this moment, Sect Leader Li was wrapped in layers of gauze, and his right arm had been cut off, making his end extremely tragic.
When Lin Zhou saw this scene, his heart skipped a beat.
The person who did this was extremely ruthless.
Moreover, to beat a martial arts master of internal energy to this extent, it would probably take several martial arts masters of internal energy working together, or perhaps a master of internal energy from within the county town would intervene.
"Pharmacist Lin."
"Pharmacist Lin."
At this moment, Li Suifeng and Li Jianghe, who were in the room, as well as Old Wu, all politely bowed and greeted Lin Zhou when he entered.
After all, they all knew that Lin Zhou had gained the favor of that bronze-ranked constable.
If all goes well, he might be able to go directly to the prefectural city in a few months. That's a place that everyone in their county aspires to be. The future Pharmacist Lin has the potential to become a master above the Transformation Realm.
Such a future master should naturally be treated with care.
"Eldest Young Master, Second Young Master."
"Old Wu."
"Pharmacist Wang."
Lin Zhou returned the greetings one by one and walked to the bedside.
At this moment, Wang Yaoshi, who was standing in front of the bed, frowned slightly as he looked at Li Sui, the sect leader, on the bed. After hearing the commotion inside the room, he turned around and saw Lin Zhou walking forward.
"Pharmacist Lin, you should take a look too."
"Ugh."
"The person who attacked was too ruthless. The sect leader's meridians were severed in many places, and his martial arts were ruined. The precious medicine that can restore the meridians is simply impossible to obtain in our Taihu County."
After seeing Lin Zhou, Pharmacist Wang sighed and said...
At this moment, Li Sui, the sect leader, was still unconscious on the bed and had not yet woken up.
After Lin Zhou stepped forward to take his pulse, he also frowned.
Although he possesses the skill "Healing Hands" and can heal Sect Leader Li Sui, revealing this would be tantamount to suicide for Lin Zhou, who is still developing.
Although Master Li Sui's meridians have been destroyed, his life has been saved.
If Li Suifeng can rise to the rank of bronze-level constable in the Divine Arrest Bureau in the future, he might be able to exchange for a precious medicine to restore his meridians.
But now, there's nothing we can do.
