Dominating Martial King
Chapter 234 - 234 192 Blood Vengeance Envoy Arrives_4

234: Chapter 192 Blood Vengeance Envoy Arrives_4 234: Chapter 192 Blood Vengeance Envoy Arrives_4 However, this energy was not true Inner Strength, but what was known as ‘Essence,’ gathered from the most refined Spiritual Energy.

Absorbed from Wild Boar Meat, it should have naturally dissipated over time, but now it was forcibly gathered into the Dantian by Zong Shou’s Guiding Technique.

It could enhance the body and also be transformed into Inner Breath, able to heal injuries as well as transfer to others, serving multiple purposes.

In his previous life, Zong Shou had been able to dominate over hundreds of millions of players, thanks in no small part to this Guiding Technique, which could be described as immensely meritorious.

Usually, Zong Shou practiced inside the carriage, three times daily.

Chuxue had seen it before and lost interest after a brief glance.

Yiin Yang was witnessing it for the first time.

After just one look, his eyes shone with a keen glint, and he watched intently.

Not until Zong Shou had completed the entire set of Guiding Techniques did Yiin Yang’s sharp light in his eyes recede.

He spoke indifferently, “I wonder where the Princely Heir learned this set of movements?

If practiced diligently, even if one does not become a great hero, it can certainly strengthen the body—”

Zong Shou nodded slightly in acknowledgement, but a trace of a strange expression flashed across his face.

During these seven days, the only thing he knew was that he had studied at the familiar Coastal Academy for a long time and was only recently taken out by these two people.

Another thing was that with his knowledge and experience, he could not fathom the depth of Yiin Yang.

Calm and composed, with measured actions, he hardly looked like a coachman.

After finishing the pork, Yiin Yang and Chuxue each went into meditation to regulate their breathing.

Their breathing evened out, almost as if they had fallen asleep.

Zong Shou also sat cross-legged and tentatively operated a basic mental method, transforming the Essence in his Qi Sea into Inner Breath.

Initially, he felt nothing special, but as the energy streams just entered his meridians, he felt a piercing pain all over his body, as if ten thousand steel needles were simultaneously inserted into his body, almost making him cry out in pain.

Zong Shou instinctively inhaled sharply but didn’t want to alarm the two people beside him, so he forcefully endured it.

After a moment, the intense pain slightly subsided, leaving his back drenched in cold sweat.

“Indeed!

It is because of the parallel meridians!”

A flicker of realization shone in his eyes, and Zong Shou urged his Thoughts, causing the warm streams to all return to the Qi Sea, temporarily abandoning the idea of continuing his practice of Inner Qi.

In the Cloud Realm, all races base their cultivation on the nine Wheel Meridians of the Body Meridian.

Nine Wheel Meridians encircle the entire body.

When Zong Shou operated his energy just now, he distinctly felt that the Essence in his meridians split off in different directions.

As he had expected, his body indeed had Dual Veins!

This body was half-demon, possessing bloodlines from both the Human Clan and the Fox type, both of extraordinary origins, embodying the strengths of both lineages with an exceptional root bone and Five Elements Spirit Root.

However, it was precisely because of this that they conflicted with each other, making his physical strength frightfully low, preventing him from normally cultivating any Inner Breath.

In cases like his, with dual meridians running parallel, most would abandon the idea of practicing Martial Arts.

However, for him, it wasn’t without hope.

What he felt most fortunate about in this world was that his decades of reading in his previous life and verification in the virtual Illusion Realm had accumulated Martial Arts experience far exceeding any martial artist of this age!

Recalling information from his previous life, Zong Shou’s brow gradually furrowed.

Either practicing a special Kung Fu suitable for dual veins of which he remembered several types—all powerful, at least among absolute skills—but none were suitable.

Alternatively, it would be to obtain several Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

Enhancing one of his bloodlines to suppress the other, improving his physique to unify the dual meridians.

But these natural treasures were even rarer.

Zong Shou hadn’t even considered them possible.

“It truly serves me right!

The Fiery Fire Cold Flame Technique, Great Reversed Luo Divine Technique, Sun and Moon Radiant Wheel—when I acquired them back then, why didn’t I look at them more carefully?

Although they are somewhat rubbish—”

While he was troubled, a flash of spirit light suddenly appeared in his mind, and another segment of text swept past.

“The Way of Heaven, damaging the excessive to supplement the deficient.

The Way of Humanity, damaging the deficient to serve the excessive—”

Zong Shou’s expression suddenly froze.

Then, as if he had seen something dreadful, he quickly drove those memories out of his Thoughts and deeply buried them.

This text was all from an Ancient Martial Arts secret called ‘Swallowing Essence’ that he had obtained by chance in his early years.

It had once stirred boundless turmoil in the Cloud Realm, leading to countless bloody storms and was known across ten worlds, viewed as a taboo by people.

If he used this technique, it could resolve the conflict in his bloodlines and even drastically increase his cultivation.

However, unless it was an absolute last resort, truly facing a life-threatening situation, he was unwilling to touch it.

Especially with his Dual Vein body, it might bring even more complications.

Yet at this moment, he was still hesitating.

With a sigh of resignation, Zong Shou then disbursed all the gathered Essence throughout his four limbs and hundred bones, enhancing his body.

Especially his hands, making the muscle groups more robust and the tendons tougher.

He then chopped down a block of Iron Wood commonly seen in the Cloud Realm from the nearby woods using his Fine Steel Treasure Sword, and carved it into several half-foot long wooden Flying Knives.

Standing by the carriage window, Zong Shou slightly lifted his wrist, and a black silhouette immediately shot out from his sleeve.

In an instant, it reached twenty yards outside the carriage, firmly nailing into a short tree and emitted a light ‘snap’ sound.

“Left half a millimeter!”

Since someone had taken control, the speed of the Cloud Flipping Chariot had increased by several notches.

The short tree that was used as a target passed by in the blink of an eye and then disappeared from sight.
