Martial arts ascend to the gods

Chapter 245 Pinewood
Zhou Leng looked at Xue Chengsong and said, "Send the Body Refining Stage to follow us."

"it is good."

"Let's go!" Zhou Leng took a step forward, and the other two and Rao Mingxian rushed out together.

Xue Chengsong asked eight people in the Body Refining Stage to catch up, and then sent someone to find Xue Tongming to inform him about the left hand of the Headless God.

If I could really grab it...

Xue Chengsong's eyes and heart were filled with passion.

Zhou Leng and three others rushed out of the door and chased after the man.

From the front right, five warriors in the vitality stage rushed out diagonally.

The two sides met each other and found that they were both strangers.

The leader of the group ran while saying, "We are from Wanli Development Company, and we are here with Zhao Tong, the third son of the Zhao family. We hope you can give us some favors and not interfere in this matter."

Zhou Leng turned and looked at Rao Mingxian and the other two.

Rao Mingxian's eyes were in a panic, and the other two middle-aged men in the vitality period just smiled coldly.

One person shouted, "If the Third Young Master Zhao comes in person, we will turn around and leave. But if the Third Young Master Zhao is not here, how can we know whether you are real or fake? Wan Li is powerful, but in this kind of thing, whoever sees it will be punished."

The man on the other side said, "In that case, let's make an agreement that both sides will not take action before catching the person or obtaining the treasure to avoid being tricked. After we get it, both sides will decide who is better. How about that?"

Rao Mingxian and the other two looked at Zhou Leng.

Zhou Leng shouted as he ran: "Okay."

The five people in the vitality stage on the opposite side looked at Zhou Leng in surprise. They didn’t expect that the leader was so young.

Rao Mingxian whispered, "You all know Wan Li's background, right?"

"After all, it is one of the top ten development companies in Dragon Country."

"It is said that the company behind this is the descendants of the elders who started the martial arts civilization. However, there are too many companies like this. Besides, this is the Water Continent Demon City, and a powerful dragon cannot defeat a local snake."

Rao Mingxian said, "We have to be careful. If something goes wrong, we will all be in trouble. And with so many people seeing it, we won't be able to handle it."

Zhou Leng and the other two frowned.

Rao Mingxian's concerns are justified.

If it is an ordinary force, even if it is stronger than Xue’s, even if it has a congenital or even master background, as long as it is not Rucheng’s, it will be eliminated.

But when it comes to Wanli and the Zhao family, it’s completely different.

The four of them suddenly felt uncomfortable everywhere and were restrained.

In contrast, the five people not far away remained calm and looked very confident.

Zhou Leng estimated the leg injury and thought it wouldn't be serious in the short term.

So he whispered, "I will speed up and catch up. You guys get ready and be careful of their sneak attacks."

"Okay." They both nodded.

Rao Mingxian asked, "Can you heal your leg injury?"

"no problem."

"Then it all depends on you." Rao Mingxian said.

Zhou Leng took a slow, deep breath, circulated his Qi, and took the Flying Crane Step.

With a loud bang, he cracked the ground and rushed forward like a sharp arrow, leaving everyone behind.

"This speed..."

Everyone on both sides widened their eyes and instantly understood Zhou Leng's strength.

The five people opposite frowned as they looked at Zhou Leng's increasingly smaller figure.

Although Wanli is strong, he cannot cover the sky with one hand.

Three minutes later, Zhou Leng rushed to a place a hundred meters away from the man, getting closer and closer.

Zhou Leng shouted loudly: "My friend, you can't escape. We have no grudges in the past or today, so why not leave the treasure behind?"

"If you can beat me, I'll admit defeat!" The man's answer was clear and concise.

"it is good!"

Zhou Leng accelerated again, and in a moment, he caught up with the man and slapped him with his palm.

The man took the punch.

With a snap, the man's right arm broke, and he flew backwards spitting blood, hitting the tree heavily, and the package in his hand flew out.

Zhou Leng turned around, grabbed the package, and looked at the man.

The man leaned against a tree, his right arm drooping limply on the ground. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his left hand, staring at Zhou Leng and said, "You are a master, I can't beat you, see you later!"

The man turned and ran away cleanly.

Zhou Leng held the black package and shook it gently.

There was a heavy thumping sound from inside.

Inside the package was a mahogany box, more than half a meter long.

Zhou Leng recalled what happened that day. When the man ran out of the mine, the thing in his arms was about the same size.

At this time, the pursuers were approaching.

Zhou Leng carried a black package and walked towards Rao Mingxian and the others.

When the two sides met, the five men stopped and watched eagerly.

The person who spoke before clasped his fists and said, "My name is Gu Hongyun, and I am the manager of the Wanli branch. This time, I am here on the orders of the Third Young Master Zhao to search for the treasure. I wonder if you can give up this treasure for the sake of the Third Young Master Zhao?"

Zhou Leng said: "Okay, what's your price?"

Gu Hongyun was stunned.

A Shengli-stage warrior behind Zhou Leng said, "You don't want to spend a penny, but you want to take the Headless God away with bare mouths. If you don't know, you would think that the entire Dragon Kingdom belongs to the Third Young Master Zhao."

"Let's draw the line and stop talking nonsense. We are warriors and we should speak with our fists." said another warrior in the vitality stage.

Gu Hongyun looked at Zhou Leng and remained silent.

An expert knows the trick. Just based on Zhou Leng's speed just now, there is no need to think too much, he is definitely no match for him.

His body, Qi and Qinggong are all extremely strong.

Even the weaker newly promoted innates were not much faster than before.

Zhou Leng carried the package and walked back, saying, "If everything is fine, we'll go back. If something happens... be prepared."

Zhou Leng spoke in a calm tone, and the five people were startled after hearing it.

Gu Hongyun looked at Zhou Leng, squinted his eyes and then recovered, smiling: "Okay, okay. This little brother is very powerful, so we can't beat him. But why don't you open it and see if it's real or fake?"

"Huh?" Zhou Leng was stunned. Could this kind of treasure be fake?
The Shengli-stage warrior behind him whispered, "It could be fake. It has appeared several times."

"Is it true or not?" Zhou Leng had never heard of it.

"Yes. The one in our mine last time was later found to be a fake."

Zhou Leng tore open the package and looked at the mahogany box, which was locked. He smashed it with one hand and pried open the lid, revealing a piece of log.

Everyone was silent.

Gu Hongyun smiled and bowed, saying, "It seems that we are unlucky. Goodbye. Oh, by the way, my little brother is very skilled. It would be a shame for him to stay in a small place like Rucheng. If you are interested in joining Wanli, you can contact me. Wanli will welcome you with open arms."

As he spoke, Gu Hongyun swung his right hand and a business card flew out.

Zhou Leng took it casually, put away the business card, and looked at the things in the box.

A piece of pine wood as thick as an arm.

Zhou Leng held the pine wood with his left hand and ran his right fingernail along the pine wood from top to bottom, leaving a clear mark.

With his hands like iron pliers, he exerted force on both sides, and there were continuous light "crackling" sounds, and the pine wood split in two.

Everyone's eyebrows jumped.

Zhou Leng had no luck and separated the wood with his bare hands.

It can be done during the growth phase, but not so easily. It’s like breaking cookies.

Gu Hongyun and the other four were thankful that they did not use force.

There is nothing inside the wood.

Zhou Leng threw it down and walked back.

The five men started running, and the two sides were getting further and further away.

Zhou Leng asked: "Why would someone fake it? Is it to create chaos, or to hide the true headless god?"

"Not sure. Some people say it was a trick of the Demon Worship Cult to disrupt the Water Continent Demon City."

"But some people have indeed seen the left hand of the headless god with their own eyes, and more than once."

"The person who forged it may have already obtained the Headless God, and then used a fake one to cover up the truth."

"The key is that no one can tell whether it's real or fake before opening it."

Zhou Leng said: "Why is this thing taking so long?"

"The Headless God is the remains of a demigod, and it contains powerful strength. Once it enters the Shuizhou base, it will definitely be detected, but there is no news yet. So everyone infers that the thing is still in the Shuizhou Demon City, but it is not certain who has it."

"Can't it be refined?"

“Only Xiantian can refine it. The person who obtains it is very likely not a Xiantian.”

Rao Mingxian said: "Maybe the headless god is really buried somewhere, and its master will refine it after he reaches the innate level."

"I guess it's..."

Zhou Leng said: "It seems that this treasure is not meant for us."

"Yes. But it's normal. After all, this kind of thing is too precious. Even the Grandmaster rarely possesses it."

Zhou Leng asked: "How powerful is the headless god?"

Rao Mingxian shook his head.

A warrior in the Shengli period said: "Having or not having the Xiantian realm is basically equivalent to being three small levels stronger, which is a small realm."

"The difference between the early stage of body refining and the early stage of vitality?"

"Correct."

"Very strong." Zhou Leng exclaimed.

"Of course, not counting the Star Weapons, the Headless God is the only martial treasure of mankind, and it is the remains of a demigod."

"Ordinary weapons are far from being comparable to martial arts treasures and star weapons."

"Star weapons... Alas, they are even rarer. Even if they exist, they are in tatters."

Everyone walked back slowly. Although they seemed calm on the surface, they could not suppress the regret in their hearts.

When they returned to the mine, Xue Chengsong came out quickly and asked, "What happened?"

All four of them shook their heads.

Zhou Leng said: "It's fake."

"What a pity... But it's normal. This thing is useless if you don't have it by nature."

After they chatted for a while, Zhou Leng and Rao Mingxian got in the car and returned to Shuizhou Base.

Zhou Leng first went to the Martial Arts Brigade alone, reported his safety, and then took out the things he had taken from Chang Luan and his son and others.

A magic bag, some sundries, some pills and pill coupons.

Leopard tendon pills, 32 pills, each costs 20, but the market price is often 25.

Zhuangti Pills, 74 pills, 20 per pill.

Buyuan Pills, 32 pills, 10 per pill.

24 pills of various medium-quality elixirs worth around each.

207 pills of low-grade miscellaneous medicines, including blood-replenishing pills and qi-nourishing pills, worth ten thousand yuan.

There are more than 300 pills worth thousands of yuan, such as the Dabu Pills.

There are 100 meat and medicinal meal coupons, each containing 20 pieces.

A magic bag, worth eight million.

Star snails, 72 pieces.

And half of the profits from at least three future mines.

Adding the gains from killing the demon before, it’s 10 million.

In just two or three days, the harvest is unimaginable.

Zhou Leng took out the replenishing pill from the magic bag, put it in his hand, and watched quietly.

It is this tiny pill that holds my expectations for more than a decade since childhood.

I don’t know how many times I’ve dreamed about this.

I don’t know how many families have fallen into quarrels and despair because of it.

Now, not only have I eaten enough Baidan, but I'm also starting to have some left over.

Zhou Leng sold the unused items and the magic bag to the Martial Arts Brigade, and then returned to Rucheng with Rao Mingxian.

Because of the obvious injuries on his body, Zhou Leng simply reported his safety to Wang Boxiong and Deng Zhijue before entering the world of ferocious beasts.

He took the elixir, boiled tiger bamboo and drank it, then went into Mammoth Lake and fell asleep.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Leng opened his eyes.

Being at the bottom of the lake, you don’t feel suffocated at all.

The body in the vitality stage, just like the innate human body, can already breathe freely in water.
