Xiuxian, I can travel to another world

Chapter 438 Strength
Five Tigers Severing the Gate with a Blade!

This is a very common sword technique, and martial arts schools often use it as an introductory tutorial for sword techniques.

However, if one can cultivate it to a high level of proficiency, its power will still be extraordinary.

That's it.

The burly man with the knife charged forward with the momentum of a tiger descending a mountain, his long sword slashing and hacking with a whistling wind.

The heavy longsword, which had been used for slashing, was now used for slicing. As it spun, it became light and agile, and its fierce blade movements even had a strange charm.

"Not bad!"

Zhu Ju raised an eyebrow, his face showing surprise.

It's quite rare for an unassuming highway robber to have developed such refined swordsmanship.

If placed among the guards of the Zhu family, they would be among the best.

pity!

You are a beautiful woman, why did you become a thief?
He shook his head slightly, then swayed and pressed himself against her.

Long knives, sharp swords, and hidden weapons were intertwined like a net, seemingly impenetrable, but in his eyes, there were flaws everywhere.

A dodge.

It seemed dangerous, but in reality, they easily broke through the encirclement.

His body, which was still rather thin compared to the three robbers, swayed slightly, and a force capable of uprooting mountains suddenly surged forth.

The will of the giant!

force!
force!
force!
Beneath the mask, Zhu Ju's eyes were deep and unfathomable, and his body seemed to suddenly rise more than ten feet, like a giant god stomping across the earth and sweeping everything away.

Danyue!

He could lift a tripod with a bent elbow, as if carrying a thousand pounds of force.

Push the mountain!

Pushing forward with both fists is like shaking a mountain, and the force is like a millstone rolling forward.

"when……"

The burly man with the knife's expression changed drastically. Without thinking, he quickly sheathed his knife and went back to defend, holding the blade horizontally in front of him.

There was a crash.

Zhu Ju's fist was covered with a faint golden hue, and when it clashed with the longsword, it produced a metallic clang.

The burly man felt an irresistible force strike him, and immediately coughed up blood and fell backward.

"Big brother!"

The swordsman beside him exclaimed in surprise, his body suddenly spinning like a top as he stabbed at Zhu Ju's waist and ribs.

His strategy was clearly to attack where the enemy would have to defend.

"Peng!"

Zhu Ju turned to the side and pressed down with one hand.

The earth cracked!

Thunderclap!

The force of the punch pressed down, sending shockwaves flying. The longsword let out a mournful cry and flew directly out of the opponent's hand.

Twist the sea!

Destroy the city!

Zhu Jushen is like a giant spirit, his body transformed into a mountain. His every move seems slow, but it contains immense power.

The terrifying force crushed everything; a mere glancing blow would injure, and a collision would kill. The two who tried to struggle were jolted and sent flying backward.

Both being of the ninth rank, one of the upper ninth rank and the other of the middle ninth rank, they were utterly powerless against Zhu Ju, who had just entered the ninth rank.

"what!"

The last man opened his eyes wide, roared angrily, and with a flick of his cloak, dozens of hidden weapons rained down on Zhu Ju like a shower of flowers.

He himself rolled into the darkness and fled into the distance.

Neither of his two older brothers could match him; all his skills lay in hidden weapons, and he would be no match for them in close combat.

He had only taken two steps when a sharp whooshing sound came from behind him, and his expression changed.

not good!

He swayed, about to exert force to dodge.

how...

"puff!"

A throwing knife, imbued with immense force, pierced his skull and embedded itself in the wall, spraying blood everywhere.

"Pfft!"

The body fell to the ground.

"Hoo..." Zhu Juzhang exhaled a breath of turbid air, slowly withdrew his fist intent, glanced at the three corpses on the ground and nodded.

"Although your cultivation level is only at the initial ninth rank, your strength is no less than that of the eighth rank. If you want to truly crush me, you would probably need to be at the seventh rank."

"what?"

He pulled a wooden plaque from the corpse, examined it closely, and his expression was grim and uncertain.

"The Sanhe Gang!"

"Are they disciples of the Sanhe Gang?" The Sanhe Gang is a newly emerging force in Taiyuan Prefecture in recent years, and it has always wanted to challenge the status of the Qingyi Gang.

It is said that the gang leader is a sixth-rank master and has powerful backers.

Zhu Mansion.

Quiet room.

Zhu Ju sat cross-legged on the futon, silently circulating his Dragon Elephant Strength, his internal energy flowing like a mighty river.

Shortly after.

He slowly opened his eyes, a look of regret on his face.

"It is true that the flesh and blood of demons contain a lot of essence, and long-term consumption can nourish the body, but unfortunately it is not very useful to me."

Zhu Ju possesses the bones of a supreme immortal, and the essence within his body is constantly increasing. Although the amount is small, it is continuous and has no aftereffects.

The flesh and blood of demons are far inferior to this.

If you want the effect to be stronger than the Supreme Immortal Bone, you need to consume at least the flesh and blood of a fourth-tier demon.

or……

Refining the inner core of demons and monsters—those are truly wonderful things.

He shook his head, his voice slightly raised:

"Shuang'er!"

"Master."

Not far away, Shuang'er put away her cultivation technique and opened her beautiful eyes.

Zhu Ju asked:
"How is your cultivation of the techniques that Senior Jingyun taught you coming along?"

"I'm currently practicing the Ninefold Strength, the Cloud Ascending Step, and the Cicada Wing Blade. I feel..." Shuang'er turned her head slightly:
"It's not that difficult."

It's at least not as difficult as Lu Qianqian said.

However, it would be too hurtful to say such things to the other person's face, so she only said them to Zhu Ju.

"Taoist Jingyun is a disciple of Zhenwu Temple, a top-tier power in the world." Zhu Ju's eyes flashed.
"If you can become a disciple of Zhenwu Temple, not only the Zhu family, but the entire Taiyuan Prefecture will be proud of you."

“Uh…” Lu Qianqian scratched her head:

"Young master is joking."

"Although Zhenwu Temple has inner and outer sects, outer sect disciples must have a cultivation level of at least sixth rank..."

"I'll never even think about it in my lifetime."

Among the top forces in the world, Zhenwu Temple has the fewest disciples, but it is still ranked near the bottom.

But each of these disciples was a renowned figure.

"We have to try." Zhu Ju smiled calmly and handed over the pocket beside him.

"Here, take these. Let Senior Jingyun tell you how to use them."

"Demon flesh and blood?" Shuang'er's heart pounded, and she looked at Zhu Ju with a mixture of shyness and confusion:

"Isn't this what you needed, young master?"

"You need it more than I do." Zhu Ju waved his hand.
"Take it away!"

…………

"Demon flesh and blood?"

Looking at the frozen flesh and blood in front of her, Lu Qianqian couldn't help but swallow hard and muttered softly:

"He's certainly willing to spend that much."

"Yes!" said Daoist Jingyun with a sigh.
"These demon flesh and blood are not cheap, they cost at least a thousand taels of silver, what a huge sum."

She was a nun, and although her cultivation and strength were not bad, she did not have much money, so she could not provide extra assistance to her disciples.

"Ah!" Shuang'er exclaimed in surprise.
"It's so expensive, I'll take it back!"

"No need," Daoist Jingyun shook his head.
"Shuang'er, don't underestimate yourself. In time, when you have achieved a certain level of cultivation, you can repay me."

“You urgently need to solidify your foundation now. The arrival of these demonic flesh and blood is just in time to make up for your advanced age.”

"Well……"

After thinking for a moment, she spoke slowly:
"I have a method here to refine the flesh and blood of demons, called the Devouring Essence Technique, which can refine them even faster."

"Oh!" Shuang'er's eyes lit up:
"Can I give it to the young master?"

"..." Daoist Jingyun froze, paused for a moment, and then sighed helplessly:
"can."

After Shuang'er left, Lu Qianqian pursed her lips and said:
"Junior Sister's mind is full of Zhu Ju."

“Shuang’er grew up with Zhu Ju since childhood and has almost never been exposed to the outside world. She still retains some of her childlike innocence and it’s impossible for her to suddenly sever all ties.” Daoist Jingyun slowly closed his eyes.
"Once she has seen the world and come into contact with those true prodigies, she will naturally understand how naive she was back then."

"correct!"

"There have been quite a few people coming and going from the Zhu residence today. What is Young Master Zhu busy with?"

"He summoned his younger siblings to the mansion, and even settled his second and third wives in the back courtyard," Lu Qianqian began.
"She said she wanted to get together with her younger siblings."

"Oh!" Daoist Jingyun's eyebrows twitched slightly.
"The Green Robe Gang and the imperial court's experts have gone out to suppress bandits, and there has been a lot of chaos in the city recently. It seems that Young Master Zhu has noticed something."

"Well……"

"Once Shuang'er returns, we'll leave the city and go back to Baiyun Temple."

"Yes," Lu Qianqian replied.
