Divine Skill Level 6, Hunting Outside the City!

The immense medicinal power quickly transformed into Nine Yang Internal Force, flowing through the meridians of the body and easily and rapidly opening the twelve primary meridians with overwhelming force, just like a riverbed filled with silt being cleared clean, greatly increasing the speed of internal force circulation.

At this moment, the momentum of the Nine Yang internal force continued unabated, and it began to open up the eight extraordinary meridians: the Yang Wei Meridian, Yin Wei Meridian, Yang Qiao Meridian, Yin Qiao Meridian, Chong Meridian, and Dai Meridian. All of them were opened in one fell swoop, and the Nine Yang Divine Skill broke through to the sixth level. Only then did the momentum of the Nine Yang internal force exhaust itself. He continued to circulate the technique to purify the internal force.

Two hours later, Lu Ze slowly finished his practice, checked his attribute panel, and saw that he had mastered the Nine Yang Divine Skill (sixth level, 3%). A satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Indeed, one Extreme Yang Pill can increase one's internal energy by thirty years, allowing the Nine Yang Divine Skill to break through to the sixth level. If another pill is taken, the Nine Yang Divine Skill should be fully mastered!

Thinking of the many benefits of mastering the Nine Yang Divine Skill, Lu Ze decided to save up another 10 Source Points. He happened to have one Essence Pill in hand.

However, accumulating 1 source point by slaughtering pigs every day is too little.

Of course, he could also pay other butchers to buy the opportunity to slaughter pigs. But this behavior pattern would easily expose his abnormality.

A more feasible approach would be to go hunting outside the city with my second senior sister. Wouldn't those ferocious beasts be the moving source of our attention?

He now has an evil-repelling talisman to protect him, and his Nine Yang Divine Skill has broken through to the sixth level, greatly improving his internal strength and significantly enhancing his power!

However, Lu Ze still lacked confidence in his own abilities.

Therefore, he decided to first strengthen his Lightness Skill Thunder Step, Black Tiger Blade Technique, and Flying Knife Technique, turning them into martial arts skills that combine internal and external cultivation. Then, he would strengthen his steel knife and flying knife into high-grade mortal-level weapons, raising his strength to the current peak before attempting anything else.

Soon after, Lu Ze arrived at the inner courtyard of the Black Tiger Martial Arts School.

Lin Muxue walked over and, as usual, sparred with Lu Ze, no longer limiting herself to the Thunderclap Steps, but also using the Black Tiger Saber Technique.

Initially, she did this because she was tired of her eighth junior brother, Song Linfeng, who was pursuing her. He was an arrogant young master from a prestigious family, and she couldn't hit him, so she deliberately got close to Lu Ze.

But as time went on, she discovered that Lu Ze was indeed very talented and had a great personality. Sparring with him also greatly improved her martial arts skills.

Not far away, Song Linfeng watched Lu Ze and Lin Muxue expressionlessly. He never bothered with the dead.

As for fellow disciples like Song Tao, Zhou Hai, and Liu Meng, they were all busy practicing their own body-strengthening boxing techniques and didn't have time to pay attention to these matters.

In the afternoon, my second senior sister, Zhao Yueling, returned.

Lu Ze walked over and asked, "Second Senior Sister, what level of strength do you think is needed to hunt ferocious beasts outside the city?"

Zhao Yueling smiled and said, "The minimum requirement for most hunting team members is the Lesser Completion of Bone Refinement. You've broken through to the Bone Refinement realm?"

Lu Ze nodded and asked, "Does the hunting team hunt together, or do they split up?"

Zhao Yueling said, "Generally, when our strength is relatively low, we stick together. That way, when we hunt ferocious beasts, we distribute the spoils according to our merits. If you have the cultivation of the fourth level of the Body Tempering Realm and good lightness skills, you can try to act alone. If you really want to join a hunting team, remember one thing: you must not stray too far from the Xuanjia Army. All of us in these hunting teams are at the Body Tempering Realm. Without the Xuanjia Army, if we encounter a fast-moving demon beast, our lives will be in danger."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ze nodded and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Senior Sister!"

He then continued practicing the Nine Forms of Bone Refining in the Black Tiger Body Forging Fist.

Although the current focus is on improving lightness skills, physical training should not be neglected.

……

Time flies, and five days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Early morning, at home. Lu Ze had already used up his Source Points to enhance the Thunderclap Steps, Black Tiger Saber Technique, and Flying Knife Technique into martial arts that combined internal and external cultivation.

Although these martial arts techniques are not extremely sophisticated, they are enhanced by both physical fitness and internal strength, resulting in a significant increase in both attack speed and power!

He also used source points to enhance a steel willow-leaf throwing knife and a steel blade into high-grade mortal-level weapons.

Both body-forging martial artists and ferocious beasts possess strong muscles and bones, so ordinary swords and blades can only cause limited damage, but high-grade weapons can easily break through their defenses!

With these two superior weapons, Lu Ze's lethality has increased significantly!

Afterwards, Lu Ze ate breakfast, but instead of going to the Black Tiger Martial Arts School, he went to the West Gate, which was the closest to Qinghe Town, as he had arranged with his second senior sister, Zhao Yueling, the day before.

That's right, he's going hunting outside the city. Accumulating source points step by step is just too slow!

Of course, it was Song Linfeng who truly forced Lu Ze to make a decision. As his relationship with Lin Muxue grew closer, the murderous intent in Song Linfeng's eyes became increasingly difficult to conceal, and he looked at Lu Ze as if he were a dead man.

Lu Ze had already extracted Song Linfeng's identity from Lin Muxue: the second young master of the Song family, a prominent family in the inner city, whose family had a Qi Refining Realm Immortal Master in charge.

In typical cultivation novels, those at the Qi Refining Realm are merely lowly ants in the cultivation world.

Even the smallest ant can instantly kill any Body Tempering Realm martial artist in the mortal world, including even a Junior Grandmaster of the Condensing Qi Realm above the eighth level of Body Tempering Realm!

Only a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm above the Condensation Realm can rival a Celestial Master of the Refining Realm!

Song Linfeng may not make a move on the surface, but if he secretly sends out experts, he may not be able to withstand it!

Therefore, Lu Ze could not wait any longer and had to accelerate the improvement of his strength!

……

A little over fifteen minutes later, at the west gate of the city, Lu Ze saw many martial artists carrying swords and knives, mostly in groups of seven or eight, clearly hunting teams.

The hunting party shouldn't be too small, otherwise they won't be able to defeat powerful beasts. Nor should it be too large, otherwise each member won't benefit much and will simply disperse.

Not long after, Lu Ze saw a stunningly beautiful woman who was 1.9 meters tall; it was none other than his second senior sister, Zhao Yueling.

Moreover, she had five teammates beside her.

Immediately, Zhao Yueling walked over and said with a smile, "Junior Brother Lu, are you really sure? Although I will take care of you, sometimes danger comes too quickly, and even I may not have time to act."

Lu Ze said, "Don't worry, Senior Sister, my lightness skill is quite good. As long as I don't encounter any high-level ferocious beasts, surviving shouldn't be difficult!"

He had learned some information about the ferocious beasts from his second senior sister, Zhao Yueling, over the past few days. For convenience, the imperial court divided the ferocious beasts into four levels: primary, intermediate, advanced, and top-level. Primary ferocious beasts correspond to the first three levels of the Body Tempering Realm in humans, advanced ferocious beasts correspond to the seventh to ninth levels of the Body Tempering Realm, and top-level ferocious beasts correspond to the tenth level of the Body Tempering Realm.

Of course, this classification is not rigorous, because due to their size and bloodline endowments, ferocious beasts of the same level are often stronger than ordinary human warriors.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yueling stopped trying to persuade him and instead introduced Lu Ze to his five teammates: one woman and four men, namely Zheng Rou, Zhou Cheng, Li Jinsong, Qian Yong, and Huang Heng.

Zhou Cheng and Li Jinsong are at the third level of the Body Tempering Realm, while the others are at the second level. However, Zheng Rou, who has the lowest cultivation level, has also reached the Great Perfection of Bone Refinement.

The strongest among them was none other than the second senior sister, Zhao Yueling, who was also the captain of the hunting team. According to the information Lu Ze obtained from Lin Muxue, the second senior sister's cultivation had reached the fourth level of the Body Tempering Realm and the Great Perfection of Flesh Refinement three months ago, and should now be close to perfection.

It was precisely because Zhao Yueling was the captain of the hunting team that when she recruited people into the team, the members might have had some objections, but they didn't say anything.
